We departed from Seattle on November 19, 2025 and landed in the Philippines on the 20th. Our journey involved a flight from Seattle to Korea, followed by a layover before reaching the Philippines. International travel is indeed quite tiring. My World Ministries International (WMI) team included my wife, Dr. Adalia Hansen, my son MJ, and Dr. Mike Hyodo. Bishop Israel Sanoy of Love Fellowship Church International (LFCI) and others welcomed us at the airport with a lovely sign.
On Friday, November 21st, we embarked on a four-hour car ride to Palayan, where we shared a meal with Pastors Susan Cabrera, MC Gabriel, and their family. The following day, the 22nd, we participated in an inauguration and dedication ceremony for the Palayan branch of LFCI, during which I delivered a message. After the service, we dined at the retreat center and later held an open-air crusade focused on salvation and healing. I spoke on the topic of "It's Supernatural and God is real." We distributed food, shoes, and other essentials, with games available for children as well. It was a remarkable experience, with many people accepting Christ and receiving healing.
On Sunday, the 23rd, we traveled to the LFCI Cabanatuan, Nueva Ecija branch, where I addressed the Church's Responsibility to save the Philippines. My wife offered prayers, resulting in many healings. Following the service, we were hosted at a member's house, where we were served balut, a hard-boiled duck egg with feathers inside the shell. It was quite an experience, as they considered it a rite of passage to becoming Filipino. We then dedicated the Rizal LFCI branch, prayed for the neighbors, and visited entrepreneur Edwin Canlas, interviewing him and Bishop Sanoy for my television program.
On November 25th, we navigated canoes to the flooded areas, a result of corruption, and ministered at the Meysulao LFCI branch, which had been relocated to the second floor due to flooding. I preached, leading to many conversions, while Adalia's prayers resulted in numerous healings. We provided them with much needed food relief, learning later that the water was over ten feet deep and infested with alligators, pythons, and sharks, unbeknownst to us at the time.
On the 27th, Bishop Sanoy, myself, and other LFCI team members visited the Pampanga Maximum Security Prison. I delivered a sermon, prayed for the sick inmates, and witnessed many prisoners accepting Jesus and sharing testimonies of their healings. We distributed packages containing personal items and shared a meal with some prisoners in their cell.
Saturday, November 29th, we addressed the nationwide conference for all pastors and workers of LFCI led by Bishop Israel Sanoy. Both Adalia and I spoke in the morning and afternoon sessions, witnessing many miraculous healings. The service was so powerful that they struggled to bring it to a close due to the overwhelming presence of the Holy Spirit.
On Sunday, November 30th, we both spoke at the LFCI Calumpt Church, experiencing another profound move of God with many healings and individuals being overcome by the spirit. On December 1st, we celebrated Bishop Israel Sanoy's 40th Ministry Anniversary, followed by teaching at the pastors' convention of LFCI on December 2nd.
That evening, we enjoyed a victory dinner at a Korean restaurant before flying back to Seattle, returning home on December 3, 2025.

Please help us return to the Philippines. As you can see, we helped widows, orphans, prisoners and the poor starving in flooded areas, along with ministering to pastors and churches.
The Philippines is suffering because of corruption at the highest levels and the people are being exploited.
Please become a part of the solution by helping to send us back. We need to continue in calling for a National Repentance and help the poor with food, clothes, shoes, etc. It is truly more blessed to give than to receive. Help us help them.
Blessings, Jonathan Hansen
