Fr Yohanes Bambang Reporting from Indonesia

This is my second journey as a missionary to Manado. Six persons have been baptized into Orthodox Church. They were very happy in receiving holy baptism. Manado has opened to welcome us to plant the seeds of Orthodoxy. Many Protestant churches have invited me to preach the Gospel of Christ, and by hearing the preaching, numbers of people are waiting to be baptized into the Orthodox Church. But they have to be taught the basics of orthodox faith before the holy baptism.

As part of my arrival the foundation of our Orthodox Kindergarten has been made in kakenturen – Modoinding – Manado, although Our Orthodox Kindergarten is still in its process of completion, and more than 50 children have been listed to get admitted to the kindergarten.

Beside that the land for the Orthodox Church has been provided, and it has been donated by Rombot family in Touliang – Kakas- Manado. Office of Our Orthodox Church in Manado has been borrowed from Lesilolo family in central of Manado namely in “Citra Land Area.

Basically, The Foundation of Our Orthodox Church in Manado has been laid out, and we are ready to develop our Orthodox Mission in Manado with plannings that we have.

Mission without financial assistance is impossible. I request each one of you to participate and help our orthodox Missionary work in Manado, especially to meet the cost of our Orthodox Kindergarten establishment and the needs for school operations, since we lack Chairs, tables, Cupboard, School Uniforms, Sports Uniforms, inside and outside of Children games and many other types of equipment.

I sincerely hope your help and support for the rapid growth of this mission for the glory of God and goodness of humanity.

Finally, through your participation and help, i take this opportunity to y” Thank you for your kindness and goodness”, And God be with All of you, Amen.

Regards
Fr. Yohanes Bambang Cahyo Wicaksono
