“We give all the glory to God for the incredible things He is doing in our midst.”
Celebrating God’s work in 2025.
These past months have brought powerful encounters, healing and growth within our community and team. On March 15, 2025, YWAM Balut returned from Project 116 in Magdalena, Laguna, where the team witnessed God move through outreach, prayer and ministry. The team retreat that followed gave space for rest, reflection and renewed unity as we continue serving children, families, students and local communities in Tondo.
