In 2010, John and Awit were called to fulltime ministry and founded Borongan City Evangelical Church. John preached weekly as well as created and taught discipleship curriculum and leadership classes. Focusing on evangelism and discipleship, he equipped men and women in the church to become pastors and ministry workers. He became an ordained minister in 2013.
John desires to magnify God by producing disciple makers through biblical servant leadership and holistic Christ-centered communities in the power of the Holy Spirit. He envisions the multiplication of Christ-centered, biblical, and healthy local churches that will be catalysts for life transformation and spiritual movements for the glory of God.
John and Awit are blessed with two children, Timothy and Trinity. John loves coffee and nature, especially the sea breeze. He loves watching biographical movies and documentaries and enjoys small group chitchat.
