Red Cross Training
We completed Basic Life Saving, First Aid, and CPR training at our headquarters in Guisad, Baguio City on January 8th. We had about 20 people finish the training. Most of them are involved directly or indirectly with Bukal. Several joined us from Asia Vision Short Term Missions as well.
It was a great and demanding time. Thanks to the instructors from Philippine Red Cross. Also the food was great (Thanks Ate Flor!)
Added a map to the right side of this page. Shows some of the sites we have been involved with. Have about 7 or 8 added. Need to add more, but it is a start, di ba?
Check the Ministry Partners page. It is SLOWLY growing. Some ministry parters are part of Bukal Life. Other’s are groups that we are happy to think of as partners in ministry.
We have updated pages on Shekinah Home (an orphanage run by Brian and Joanne Whittle) and Reaching every Tribe Ministries (headed by the Winter family). Hope to be adding and updating more soon.

We’ve been gradually populating this website. First, if you look at the DOWNLOADABLES section, you will see some powerpoints and articles having to do with ministry. We will be expanding and updating this regularly. If you check the AAPCS and DLKC pages, links have been added to the additional info (so far, the AAPCS brochure and the Divine Love Kids Club Newsletter).
By the way, if you want to find some good powerpoints on a number of aspects of ministry, might want to check out http://www.rasnet.org. Click on EQUIP.
