Philippine Friends
Hey everybody, I just wanted to give a big shout out to all of my new friends from the Philippines. Since I have returned back to the USA there has been a surge of Philippine visitors to my blog. Thanks for stopping by. I hope that something will be a blessing to you. It is the least that I can do after how much of a blessing you were to me while I was in your lovely islands. I met so many wonderful people and it felt like God was uniting us together for the future somehow. I am so excited about the new recording that we did together and I can't wait for people state-side to hear you Boholano's sing for the glory of God. Keep the faith. Feel free to add a comment. We love you all so very much.Labels: bohol, c myles young, philippines

Philippine Crusade
I have just returned from the Philippines. We had an incredible time in Tagbilaran on the island of Bohol. There is a great group of believers on the island. My family and I were part of a crusade team of about 30 or so from the USA and Canada under the direction of Pastor Stephen Buxton. On Friday night I recording a new P&W project live in the Philippines. I brought the band and back up singers with me and we were joined by the choir from Bohol who blew our minds. Thanks also to "Men of Judah" for helping us. We will be releasing this project after the first of the year. Keep the Philippines in your prayers. Such a lovely place with beautiful people but so many more need to know that Jesus Christ is the answer. I was moved to tears as I stood at the "Church of the Black Nazarene" as people crawled on their knees to kiss the feet of an ebony statue, praying that this idol could somehow help them. The Philippines has been blessed with great revival through the years but the need is still staggering. Please join with me in praying for God to strengthen the believers there and to bring another great wave of revival to the Philippine islands.Labels: bohol, c myles young, Church of the Black Nazarene, live recording, Men of Judah, philippines, PW, steve buxton, tagbilaran

Looking forward to the release of the project recorded there. I can say "I was there when it happened!"
We enjoyed the work and the fellowship! -

Filipinos are the nicest people ever! I can still here them saying "Yes, Maam, Yes Maam,!"

God bless you, your family & your church..
