Soul-winning in the Philippines
Brother Symes is doing an amazing work in reaching the lost in the Philippines. In the last 10 months he estimates that over 15,000 people have heard the gospel with around 2000 of them receiving salvation. His soul-winning partner, brother Korbyn Brock, goes with him to almost every appointment to preach in local schools, hospitals, jails, and the like. Witnessing in the Philippines is great because the people are very receptive. When preaching the gospel, crowds of people stand around and will hear the gospel. Bro Symes talked about how this work is great because in America you rejoice when you get one saved at the door but here you can reach 10 people at one time with the gospel easily.
His Vision
Brother Richard Symes may very well be sent out someday to become a standalone Pastor in the Philippines. He has had the opportunity to read his Bible again and again in preparation. Not only this, but he has had the opportunity to preach the gospel to high school students numbering around 3000 at one time, and actively preaches in many places. His vision is only to see more reached as effectively in the larger cities. His goal will see many more come to Christ. He currently looks toward his Samaria, the city of Tagum to see this work grow.
