Lelan and I had the privilege to be given a tour in Faith Academy today in Cainta, Rizal. We were invited by Sir Dave Harvey last Sunday when we joined them in the breaking of bread at their house. Kuya Jerry invited us to their fellowship/breaking of bread but we already met Mr. Harvey in Emmaus church in San Juan when Lelan came to the Philippines in May.

It’s nice to know that there is a Christian school that really seeks to honor God in everything. The teachers are all missionaries that are unpaid. They volunteer to serve God in that field. In the past, they only accepted MKs (missionary kids/kids of missionaries), but now, they accept unbelievers, too. I think it’s a good way to share the gospel to unbelievers.

I heard about Faith Academy before from our neighbors who are Christian missionaries from the U.S. They sent their kids there after homeschooling them. I didn’t realize it’s a big school! It has a long history as well.

I had a class at 1 p.m. and there was poor signal for my pocket WiFi. Mr. Todd Eickenhauer (who gave us the tour) allowed me to use his office for that. I was really embarrassed because I felt like using his office is disrespectful. However, he offered and I needed his help so I did use his office for a quiet place and a stable internet connection. They also gave us free snacks and lunch.

His wife, Miriam, and the Keatings were there, too. We also met them last Sunday at Mr. Dave Harvey’s house. I asked Mr. Todd how often they give a tour and he said they only do it for VIPs. Lelan and I were surprised. Such an honor! The family we were with on that tour was Mr. Harvey’s niece and family. Mr. Harvey asked us to join because we’ve been to their church and their house (for the fellowship).
