Joshua Volunteers Purposely and Passionately Pursue BOC4

For nine years the Greenhills Christian Fellowship, as part of their pastoral equipping thrust –which could be loosely translated as their love towards those who share the gospel, have been pampering ministers of the gospel to the full as part of their Purpose and Passion Seminar. They house them for a three day seminar in Manila which includes free meals, accommodation and lectures from renowned speakers from here and abroad. They have given them access to their church and their resources. They gave them books, medical consultation and provided them with key contacts and networks wherein they could further reach their communities for Christ.

Part of those who share in such grace are those pastors, ministers and laymen who are ministering towards the Armed Services or part of the Jesus Offers Salvation Hope and Unity to the Armed Forces (JOSHUA) ministry. Dispensed over all key cities and regions of the Philippines, these ministers have reached far flung outposts, precincts and detachments (even those on hostile grounds) to minister to the soldiers of the AFP and policemen of the PNP.

This year 50 new pastors from all over the country and even across denominational line  has committed to share and be part of the ministry as they saw the vision of BOC4 as part of the Purpose and Passion Seminar. Bro. Boi Manuel shared the thrust of BOC4 and explained to the ministers how ministering to the policeman could help a church to be equipped, could help a church reach out to its community and to finally be a part of nation building.

PSUPT Jun Borromeo gave them his testimony and explained how a minister could help change a once hardened cop and how that changed policeman could make an impact in ministry.

PSSUPT Cesar Binag and Elder Mike Aspirin also shared the history of the JOSHUA and its partnership with the CORPS and their ministry in the AFP and the PNP.
