Renew Church

Newton Fellowship recently travelled to the Philippines to continue their support and assistance with the Strong Roots Ministry. Newton has been instrumental in helping the ministry establish themselves in the community of Yapak on island of Borocay. The team assisted in the construction of the Community Centre and working with the local youth through sport and friendship.

"I think that, once again, I have a better perspective on how God has an overall/sovereign plan and that we are merely His servants/hands/feet to show and spread His love."

A youth team from Newton Fellowship Baptist travelled to the community of Yapak on the island of Boracay and were involved in many ministry opportunities, including educational and evangelistic activities. Despite the island's tourism-driven economy, many of the locals are unemployed because of their lack ability to speak English. This church aims to help bring change to their situation.

“God spoke to me through this experience [through] looking for the left out and unlovely of society and sharing even a smile or kind word.”  

In March 2024 a team from Renew Church travelled to the Philippines to work along side Strong Roots Ministry. The team participated in a house build, food hamper distribution, school feeding program, after school program, Grade 6 English tutoring, volleyball ministry, camped with a group of boys, and taught Sunday school classes.
