John 3:16 Ministries

Bringing the Word of God to the Philippines

For more than fifty years, my life has been closely tied to the Philippines—especially the island of Palawan. It was here I was baptized, where I served among tribal believers, where I survived malaria, hepatitis, and amebiasis, and where all three of my children were born. God placed a lasting burden on my heart for the people of Palawan long before this ministry began.

What I Saw in the Churches

In many communities, especially in the rural and tribal parts of Palawan, believers walk long distances—sometimes hours—just to attend a simple church service. Their gatherings are sincere, their faith is strong, and their desire for the Scriptures is real.

But one need stands out above all others:

Many believers do not have a Bible of their own.

Some churches share one worn copy.
Some families have none at all.
Some villages have never held a complete Bible in their own hands.

For many, a Bible is a treasure they simply cannot obtain.

Why This Ministry Exists

After decades of seeing these needs firsthand, one truth became clear:

Every believer deserves access to God’s Word.

Our mission is simple:

**To place Bibles into the hands of those who have none—beginning in Palawan and reaching across the Philippines.**

Each Bible delivered is an opportunity for a soul to read, grow, and know the truth of God’s love.

Our Heart

“God gave His Son… What have you done with Him?” — John 3:16

Every Bible we give is a testimony of God’s love for the world.
Every gift we send helps someone hear the Gospel.

Every life touched is a reminder of why this ministry exists.

From the mountains to the villages, and from the tribes to the towns, our prayer is simple:

That every person in the Philippines who desires a Bible may finally hold one in their hands.
