The Bible study started in February and the reception of the people hungry for the word of God is encouraging and is already bearing fruits. Every Thursday the ECBC evangelistic team led by Rev. Danny Galvez conducts Bible studies at Tatala. We are praying that the mission point, through God's grace, will become another church. This is all for God's glory!

ECBC Sunday School teachers visited the floating bookstore M/V Doulos on December 8, 2007. The teachers, mostly from the children’s department, were given a tour by the crew of the ship.
