Following Leoini’s return from Philippines we will be setting up a Philippines missions committee,where we will set up a monthly newsletter with information as to what is going on or future plans or missions,so watch this site for new developments.

Leoni in Philippines

Just heard news from Leoni in Philippines,she is with her father in Leyte and has been to Margaret’s orphanage,and just returned from childrens outreach and says lives are being transformed and she is very busy.They met Margaret at the church they went to in Gladstone,so it was nice for them to catch up again.More news coming!

Plans are well on the way for our return

Plans are well on the way for our return to the Philippines in June.I am presently setting up a committee to help pass on information while we are in Philippines so everyone knows what is going on,and we will have a monthly newsletter informing all of upcoming events and things that are happening in the orphanage.If you would like to part of this by sponsoring Raquel,Sarah and myself,please send monies,checks to Ivan and Raquel Russell Philippines missions Surf City Church Surfers Paradise P.O Box 59 GCMC Bundal.We need your help as we cannot do this alone,and I will be away 3 years in the Philippines to build the orphanage and businessess.

Bless you all

we are goign back to Philippines

In June we are heading back to Philippines to start organising the building of the orphanage.We still are receiving funds to anyone wishing to donate to this cause.We have just applied to some organisations for assistance,one in Ireland.I will be away for at least three years.

Project now In Ireland

I have sent the project for the orphanage to Ireland where a group  is looking at it,and they help third world countries.They received the project in December and I am now awaiting their response.Also a friend of ours who I suggested try one of the businesses that we are going to set up has started it and is very happy with the result so far.He is presently there and we are awaiting his return to sit down and nut out the company to build the equipment and the cost,more coming!
