Darold Dotson President of Philippine Vision Ministry and his wife Jocelyn from Cebu, Philippines, have been feeding, clothing, and sheltering kids in the Cebu area since the year 2000.
In the President's own words: "We now know God is telling us to do more.... The vision the Lord has given us is extensive, the ministry will be doing the same as we have been
doing with the 22 kid's.... We will also provide cloths, jobs, job training, business startups, and food to a desperate people."
Philippine vision already broke ground, clearing away brush to build houses and a farm for the children and others. This gives the children a clean safe place to live and play.
 Philippine Vision Ministry recently bought 10 acres. On this land there will be the 2 homes for the kid's, 6 small nipa houses for the staff, and a farm with chickens, pigs, and vegetables
. The vision calls for the ministry to become self supporting by selling the meat we raise. One of the men that works with us in Cebu
tells us that we can potentially raise 5,000 chickens! The funds from the sale of meat will help support the ministry. The land is
on a hill and over looks the ocean in the countryside, just a short walk to the schools. What an ideal place to raise kids and to carry out the vision.
God has already provided people to help.  Ready to work are professional fisherman, a farmer named
Francisco, a chef from Manila named Marilyn, a driver named Allen, Francisco the seamstress, 2 computer experts, and lots of mothers willing to help raise the kids.
Time is short. These kids and the people of the Philippines are in desperate need of our help. Although the vision calls for us to be self-supported, we need funds to get started. Can
you help? Will you help those that can't help themselves? Will you make a donation today? Your gift will be used because the needs are great. The kids
and people of Cebu need this your help. We want the people to know God loves and cares about them, and the people of America do too. Help us give them hope and meet their needs.
Besides your financial help, we desperately need your prayers above any thing else. We love the Filipino people
so much and have such a burden for them. We desire to fulfill the vision but can not do it alone. With your help we can do it.
May God bless you and keep you in the palm of his hand. |

Ministry Update - Nov 30, 2003 |

Greeting in the name of our lord Jesus Christ, I want to thank you for all your prayers
and support. In September we were able to pay $23,000 down on the land in Cebu. Thank you to all of you that contributed to this . You know some gave nickles, dimes and dollers, it all is very much
appreciated. Your gifts of $5, $10, $100 or $? means so much to the people of the Philippines. For as little as $5 we can feed a child for one week.We now are working to pay off the land, we
owe $45,000. Since we bought this land we have learned it is worth over $500,000, but to us it is priceless. |

This is God's land and will be used by a lot of ministries. We are going to use the
patern of the Dream Center in Los Angeles, many ministies working together. We are now looking for a pastor to give our large 2 story building to, so we will have a church. We need a total of $100,000 to
build the other ministry buildings. This is for 40 kids and the worker homes. Please continue to help us build this place for hurting people, a place where people can come for help when they think no one
cares. God bless you and remember your financial help is needed but your prayers are needed more. Call or email us we want to talk with you. Darold Dotson |
