REACHING YOUR FAMILY BACK HOME
AND AROUND THE WORLD

Tips for NEW
Christian OFWs
1. Make sure it is God's will: While
there are certainly financial benefits, often, overseas employment hurts the family, leads to marital unfaithfulness, laziness, vices, unthankfulness on the part of the dependent
children, a wasting of your hard earned money, and an inability to enjoy the freedom of worship, or to join a church
of like faith. Everything will be in the hands of your employer, who can respect your spiritual rights, or
deny you all freedoms. But God's Will is always good, acceptable and perfect (Rom.12:2). You should consult your Pastor before you apply, and think of overseas employment as a LAST option to feed your
family.
2. Make it a joint Decision. God's original plan is for the husband, wife and children to remain together. The intense loneliness of being away from your husband or wife, or your children is a severe form of suffering, and no decision should be made where finances becomes more important than fulfilling the spiritual role as parents. "The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife. Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency (1 Cor 7:4-5)." 3. Leave legally: "Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.(Rom 13:1-2)" Fill out all emplyment and visa applications honestly, xerox copy all documents, and get Letters of Reference. Copies of documents should be safeguarded back home, including copies of passports, transcripts and contact agreements. Often what is promissed, advertised or contracted CHANGES once you arrive. Arriving legally, helps protect you, and qualifies you to certain legal rights, making abuses or exploitations more difficult. "A GOOD name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold. Rom 12:17 "Provide things honest in the sight of all men (Prov.22:1)." 4. Finish all Business: (Acts 20:32-38) This should include paying off all debts, updating your address book, getting an e-mail address, and making arrangements for how you want your finances handled. To avoid seeing your money wasted back home on vises or entertainment, have a trusted person moniter and e-mail back how your sent back funds are being spent, making conditions of future sendings. Have a budget which includes what you will spend, what you will save, and what you will send back home. By having a savings, you can still accomplish something for you family when you return, if you discover what you sent back had been wasted. Leave on good terms with family and friends to avoid regrets after you have left (1 Cor 7:5), apologize for wrong doings, pay off any debts, and make things right. There is no guarentee they will live until your return, and problems in communication may make it difficult to solve unresolved problems. 5. Find a good church: "And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching (Heb 10:24-25). But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth.. (Duet.8:18)" Look in the Yellow Pages, call a Christian Book Store, Internet search, or ask new friends. A failure to find, join and become active with fellow believers, can result in a moral decay of your own life, and regrets from the consequences of sin, and the financial price of worldly living. According to a standard Baptist Church Charter: "We moreover engage, that when we remove from this place we will, as soon as possible, unite with some other church, where we can carry out the spirit of this Covenant, and in principles of God's Word." 6. Join an Association for Christian OFWs for contacts and job opportunities, advice, problem solving, friendships, social needs. There is safety in the collective wisdom and advise from other OFWs who have preceeded you. "And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers (Acts 18:3)". 7. WORK and make a Budget! That's why you came! Get a Job "For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat." (2 Thes 3:10). Your budget should include what you'll spend, save and send back home. This way, if you discover the money you sent back home was wasted, your savings can still rescue you. You owe it to your suffering family, to justify your absense. Being unwise with your income, penalized them TWICE! 8. Keep in Touch and NEVER argue: "As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country (Prov.25:25)! Email, call, write, video conference, but never argue. It is too easy to cut communication as a punishment, and when pride steps in, it is too easy to fall into sin. Unresolved interpersonal problems with your husband or wife while you are away, will only harm your already stuggling marriage. 9. Contact Us: We understand, and also stand ready to reach your unsaved family back home. REACHING YOUR FAMILY BACK HOME Check these directories for a Church near your family

Pastor Friends With Websites NATIONAL Directory of Baptist Churches Subic, Christian Baptist Tabernacle Subic Bay Baptist Church and Childrens Home CEBU CITY, Pastor Armie Jesalva, MD CASTILLEJOS, Ptr. Rod Nabua, Jr.
Each town or city consists of five to thirty barangays (villages) which help govern their respective communities, having their
own office, administration, officers, budget and legal jurisdictions to solve community problems at the lower level before
taking them formally to the town hall. Our town for example, San Marcelino, has eighteen Barangays. In larger cities, Barangays
can further be subdivided in Puroks which also have their own representatives. Since a Barangay functions as its own community,
it has been the goal of aggressive missions to see a church planted in each of the over 42,000 barangays in the Philippines.
Currently, 26,000 barangays with a population of 39 million, are without any church. This is why several Baptist churches
can minister in the same town, and not interfere with each other.
