About

My primary ministry is teaching at Faith Academy, Davao City.  I teach 4th grade.  We use primarily U.S. eclectic curriculum.  We do offer sports programs, and band/orchestra.  Our school here in Davao has recently expanded to a K-12 school.  For those who wish, Faith has a larger campus in the Manila area where students (and families) can  opt for a boarding school situation.

Teaching is my primary ministry but I am in no way tied to just that.  There are many areas of ministry in which I find myself involved.  I am involved in a local church, with people in the neighborhood and with many Filipinos who have their own areas of ministry.  I am also currently the lead teacher for the elementary division of our school.  I have always been someone who enjoys helping and encouraging and I find many ways to do that here.

I am currently at my four year mark here in Davao.  Since I came at Christmas (mid-school year) I am now with my fifth class.  I currently have Koreans, Americans and a German student in my class.  I have a potential of receiving three or four more students within the next month or two.

Our school can always use extra people who would like to experience short term ministry opportunities.  Let me know if you would like to come experience life in Davao sometime!
