Here is the $4 Million Dollar Question:
How would you like to help build a Church?
That’s right. You can be a part of building an actual Church to help spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to be part of changing one of the poorest areas in the Philippines. Payatas.
Many of you already know us. We are Payatas Quezon City Baptist Church and Ministries, Inc. We are a Mission Church headed up by Pastor Jack Wilson. We have documented the work we have done since our arrival in 2006 by the following means:

THE NEED
After seven years of being in the same building the Landlord decided they need the building for their own use and we had to leave. They later recanted and we have been here now since 2006 We are severely overcrowded and limited to how many we can reach out to within our Church. We have no money, land, or building but we do have an awesome God and I believe He has given me this plan which is really simple.
THE VISION
For all the time I have been driving from my house to the Church, there was one place that I prayed for to have for our compound.
Nothing is in stone but we are praying for one particular site.
THE REVELATION
The vision I had all along was to build a 1000 seat sanctuary, a school, missionary housing a medical clinic and housing for the Pastor. This was a great big goal and seemingly hopeless. The place we are praying for has a building on it perhaps to be used for additional missionaries to reach out to Payatas. It is large enough for a 1000 seat Church and a K-12th grade school. Hopefully we can put a medical clinic in there also.
So, When you read this, FIRST look over our websites posted below. See how worthy this ministry is. Then ask God to direct you. Then go to this link where you will be able to give any amount on your bank card. $1, $ 100, $1,000, $1,000,000, $4,000,000.00! If you have only one dollar to give, please give it. If you don’t have a bank card you can mail a check. If you don’t have a check, you can buy a money order.
SECOND: Pass this on to every list that you are on! Facebook, twitter, myspace, friendster, Linked-in, even your personal mailing list. Put a note saying, “I just helped this worthy cause, will you?” These are two things that you are able to do. DO NOT SAY NO because you only have a dollar. Send the Dollar. God will bless it. People get millions of votes on FB for many silly things but a million people at a dollar each buys a Church. We will post the totals to show you how it is going.
THIRD! (Really First) Pray and pray hard that God will do a miracle in this place and show the world what can be done, one person at a time being willing to be used for God. We need to raise $4 Million Dollars. Recently someone bought Babe Ruth’s old jersey for $4.4. million dollars so I don’t think it is too much that we are seeking to minister to an entire barangay!
DETAILS!! WHAT WOULD A PBC COMPOUND INCLUDE AND ACCOMPLISH?
A PBC Compound would be large enough to hold a 1000 seat sanctuary, school, medical clinic and maybe an outdoor area for music from out musicians or plays, God knows. It would have its own water tank and solar panels to help lower electricity costs. We could have three services per day enabling a Sunday outreach to 3000 people.
The Church basement would have a complete professional kitchen with a walk in refrigerator, and a six burner oven which will be a help for our feeding programs. On top of the Church would be a residence for the current Pastor and his family. There will be a school which will minister to at least 50- 100 kids with grades K to 12. With good funding we will be able to hire five or more professional teachers.Some of which we already put through college and are ready to teach.
There will be an enclosed, (By a fence) outside covered court with a movable stage and bleachers where we will be able to have activities for the local youth such as basketball, as well as being able to put on concerts by our musicians and to be able to evangelize our community. We also hope to have a small medical building to treat minor problems and help with discount drugs. With the right funding we will be able to have a full time Doctor.
Thank you and may God bless your good heart as you respond to this call.
Thank You!
