Regional Training Centers

Training at the Sharp Ends

Grassroots-venue training for a grassroots Christianity

Do the math! Ten percent of the evangelical churches in the Philippines are led by pastors who have adequate ministerial/theological training. According to DAWN 2000, nowadays there are almost 60,000 evangelical churches in the country. Check out 10% of that. That’s how delicate the situation is.

Zambales RTC: A Classroom with a View

CBS-Asia helps Aetas in the mountains of Zambales have their own Bible School: The Zambales Mission Academy.

The awesome scenery that the Regional Training Center overlooks.

From the elevated region of Brgy. Aglao in San Marcelino, Zambales, one can witness a telling panorama of a huge aquamarine lake surrounded by a sierra. I heard that the sierra extends up to the coastline of Zambales. The lake meanwhile ripples to at least a 10-kilometer area. In the morning this lake glares because of the sun, while at dawn it looks like a poster of a vista hanging on a wall. Here in Brgy. Aglao this view is obstructed mainly by ipil-ipil trees and 50-year-old acacias – actually these green trees serve as picture frames for the aquamarine display at the background. It is telling or revealing because generally for a Manilenyo like me, the forest-terrain of Brgy. Aglao is diyahe because of no cell phone signal and 0% wi-fi connection.
