Praise Report from the Philippines!

Hello dear family, friends, and co-members of the body of Christ!

We are thrilled to share with you an incredible journey that began when I (Julian), having visited in 2018, was once again invited to minister to the amazing congregation of CIF Makati in the vibrant capital city of The Philippines, Manila.

When we received this invitation, I strongly felt the importance of having my beloved wife, Debbie, minister alongside me. So with this shared calling, we embarked on the journey together to Manilla!

This mission held a unique significance, as CIF had faced heart-wrenching losses in the year 2020, including the devastatingburning down of their beloved church building. Lives, including that of the pastor's daughter and mother in law, were tragically lost, leaving behind wounds of grief and sorrow that cut deep into the community's heart.

God's intentions for this mission were multifaceted:

1. Tenderly addressing the wounds left by profound loss, providing comfort to those burdened by grief.

2. To empower and train leaders and the community to operate in the power of the Holy Spirit so their mission could be advanced!

3. To bring renewal and revival to the pastors of IPHC in the Philippines.

4. To provide unwavering support to CIF in their goal to plant 50 churches in the coming years.

5. To see the five fold ministry fully operate again within the Philippines.

Contained within the following pages is a vivid account of the awe-inspiring events and transformative encounters that unfolded during this mission.

These narratives bear testament to God's unyielding faithfulness and serve as a tribute to the unbreakable spirit of CIF Makati.

I am delighted to declare that the comprehensive mission we embarked upon has been undeniably fulfilled as you will read below.

However, since this mission was only partially funded, we'd like to make a heartfelt appeal (at the end of this report) for your assistance in covering this mission.

We are deeply grateful for the support received thus far. With your continued help, we can keep doing the work that God has assigned us to do.

Now, we invite you to delve into the report below and witness all the mighty things the Lord has accomplished!

With sincere gratitude and boundless anticipation,

Julian & Debbie Beek

An Outpouring Of The Holy Spirit

The Sermon & The Spirit's Outpouring

The Worship!

During The Holy Spirit's Outpouring!

As the final evening of the conference approached, an air of anticipation filled the room. We pressed in, hungry to witness a mighty move of God. And let me tell you, we were not disappointed.

As the message unfolded, something extraordinary began to happen. Waves of God's presence swept through the room, touching hearts and souls. Tears of conviction flowed freely, and a new chorus of tongues rose in prayer. The atmosphere was saturated with the unmistakable glory of God.

In a beautiful display of God's providence, Pastor Isagani had prayed earlier that there would be no rain during the meeting, despite it being rain season. And guess what? His prayer was answered – the rain held off, allowing the sound of the recording to remain crystal clear.

Once again, we boldly shared a powerful message, encouraging churches to open their doors to the sick so that they could receive prayer for healing. The response was incredible. Many leaders committed their churches back to God, relinquishing control and giving the Holy Spirit free reign once more.

It was a powerful sight to witness as pastors, humbled by God's presence, chose to surrender and let go. The atmosphere was charged with renewal and revival as leaders embraced the move of the Holy Spirit.

Towards the end of the meeting, the worship leaders who had ministered throughout were prayed over. In an incredibly special moment, some of them experienced the infilling of the Spirit for the first time, marked by the evidence of speaking in tongues.

The meeting left an indelible mark on everyone present. Hearts were moved, spirits were touched, and a sense of revival and refreshment was palpable. The unanimous sentiment echoed by many was a desire to yield everything back to God and to rely more on the work of the Spirit.

This report is a testament to the power of God's presence

and the transformative impact it can have on individuals and congregations.

It's a reminder that when we open ourselves up to the move of the Holy Spirit,

incredible things can happen.

Day 8 Thursday, July 28th - Final Day

God Moving Through Pastors in Healing Power!

The Bishop and Conference Organizer With Cripling Polio in His Leg Being Healed

The Closing of the Mission Conference 2023

A Picture Together With The Primary Leaders of CIF Manilla

After the impactful revival night, the following day brought forth a wave of gratitude and empowerment. The conference organizer reached out to profusely thank us, sharing that he had experienced a profound touch from God. The faces around us were aglow with renewed spirit, refreshed souls, and an unmistakable sense of empowerment.

A leader of multiple churches approached me (Julian) with a request. His wife was grappling with an injured shoulder, facial pain, and vertigo. I encouraged him to step into his authority and lay hands on his wife himself, expecting the Holy Spirit to heal. Miraculously, as he obeyed, God's healing touch flowed through him, instantly delivering his wife from pain and discomfort.

We also had the privilege of praying for a pastor who had been struggling with conception issues. Through prayer, she tangibly felt a turning sensation in her uterus, accompanied by a profound healing touch from God.

The crescendo of miracles occurred at the end of the conference. A bishop, who had been afflicted by crippling polio in his leg for the past two years, approached us for prayer. With faith and anticipation, we prayed over him, and in an astounding moment, he no longer needed his crutch to walk. His healing was tangible and undeniable, leaving him in awe of God's restorative power.

Pastor Yasmin prayed for healing and testified about many people who were healed through her prayers

Pastor Mark, Leader of Multiple Churches, Being Healed of Extremely Painful Foot.

During our bus ride back to Manilla, Pastor Mark asked prayer for his foot. I asked Pastor Joseph to take the lead in prayer. As Joseph prayed, Mark's expression showed clear signs of pain as he attempted to move his foot. Unwilling to waver, I encouraged Joseph to persist in prayer. With unwavering determination, Joseph prayed repeatedly and persistently.

The transformation was astounding – Mark's testimony soon followed, declaring his foot to be fully well. This experience marked a turning point for Joseph, who shared that he was not accustomed to asking for feedback after prayer and persisting for healing.

It was a lifechanging revelation, emphasizing the importance of never giving up on the promise of healing. We reminded Joseph of the unshakeable truth that God's word is faithful and that, when we resist the enemy, he flees from us.

Our journey continued as we returned to Manila, where we reunited with the Thursday cell group. Here, a conversation with a political leader took an unexpectedly powerful turn.

I encouraged him to step out in faith and pray for healing for two individuals – one with a painful back and another with hearing issues. Miraculously, both were instantly healed as he prayed.

This encounter left a profound impression on him, and he vowed that if he were to become mayor, he would ensure the gospel was shared on every street.

Before our departure from the celgroup, we were led to pray for Dennis, a man who had battled through a severe bout of COVID during the pandemic. Despite his recovery, he still faced shortness of breath and heart issues.

With unwavering faith, we invited an attendee from the cell group to pray over him, expecting God's healing touch. And once again, God's power prevailed, bringing healing to Dennis his lungs and heart, leaving him feeling completely restored.
