Testimonials
" Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ! Ako si
Joanna, isa sa mga membro ng Lighthouse Baptist Church.
Una sa lahat, nagpapapsalamat ako sa Panginoon dahil sa
pamamagitan ng aming mahal na Pastor na si Ferdinand
Basto na ginamit ng Panginoon para maibahagi sa amin ang
salita ng Dios kung paano maligtas at makilala ang Dios.
 Binago ng Panginoon ang aking buhay at sa pagattend sa
church na ito, dito ako nag-grow bilang Christian. Biyaya
para sa akin ang church na ito unti-unti akong binago ng
Panginoon at masaya ako nagseserve sa Kanya bilang isa sa
mga Sunday School Teacher at full time Bible College student.
" I am Jennelyn from Bolosan, Dagupan City and I am a
member of Lighthouse Baptist Church. I just want to share my
testimony how God change my life. Indeed, God is a merciful
God because He saved me from the horrible pit of hell. Now, I
am one of His child. I am so grateful that God is kind that while
we were yet a sinner, He loves us. I cant say that being a
Christian means that we are always on "bed of roses". Trials,
disappointments and also sadness will come our way but God is
always faithful to be there in our side. All we have to do is
claim all His promises. God has entrusted me some ministry like
teaching young ones ( former Primary Teacher but now Junior
Class Teacher) of His Word, also being part of the Melodies of
Praise ( singing group of LBC). Through His help, I am able to
do it!
To my Pastor, Ptr Ferdinand Basto, Thank you for giving your
life into the ministry, I pray that God will continue to bless you
and your family and through you, many people will hear the
word of salvation."
Ako si Javes at masaya ako dahil ako ang isa na ginagamit ng
Panginoon at dahil sa ipinagkaloob Niya hindi nga madali
ang lahat madaming pagsubok sa buhay peron sa biyaya ng
Panginoon uniti-unti ko namang itong nalalagpasaan at tulong
yon sa akin upang lalo pang tumatag ang aking
pananampalataya sa kanya. Malaki talagaang pasasalamat ko
sa Panginoon at sa church na ito dahil nagliwanag ang buhay
ko na nakilalako ang Diyos at binigyan Niya patayo ng buhay
na walang hanggang.Wala na ngang makakahigit pa sa Diyos.
Its a blessing! Masaya pa ako dahil nakilala ko ang tunay na
Dioys, masaya ako dahil naglilingkod ako sa Kanya, masaya
akoy minahal Niya tayo na kahit na magkasala tayo, it's a big
big blessing. God is So Good, talaga!
I remember my father tried very hard to bring all of us to church.
This was when I was still in high school. My father never lost hope
that one day all of my siblings, including myself, would also
embrace his faith in Christ. During my second year of high school,
I received Jesus into my life as my personal Lord and Savior.
I became involved in ministries of the church which helped in my
spiritual growth. However, as a working student in college, I got
busy and little by little, I neglected attending church. Slowly, I
became farther and farther from the Lord, which resulted in wrong
decisions and deep consequences. But, God is good. He is the God
of many chances. He gave me another chance to change and become
an obedient child again.
On time, I was invited to attend LBC, and after several Sundays, I
came to the decision to become an official member. LBC has  
greatly helped me and my family especially when we are undergoing
trials. They are always there to pray for me and lift me up.
Presently, I am involved in the women's ministry and also serve as
Church Treasurer.

I was born with a Baptist background, my mother was graduated
in Baguio Bible School. So I have always been sorrounded with
Christian people. But not until I was 20 years old that I gave my
life completely to the Lord and was baptized in July 1992 in
Singapore where I worked for 5 years. I was so homesick then
but I have the Lord he comfort me and never left me. That's
when I became very, very close to God. In 1997 I moved to
Jacksonville Florida where my husband is and I found a church
where I felt at home not long after I start going there I was
called to the children's ministry until I moved to California in
2007, the same year I came back here in the Philippines and my
prayer is that wherever I go that the Lord will use me , I just
want to serve Him in anyway and I am Blessed that the LBC is
just a walking distance away from where I live. My first visit I
was very impressed by the Pastor's  preaching it was well
taught.  Praise God  I became a member almost two years ago
now and Thank God the Lord  use me to reach out others as
always my prayer is that Lord use me. LBC is been a Blessing to
me because its not only me who is going but my family.
