<div><strong>About Our Ministry</strong>
</div>
<div>My name is Gabriel, and I serve as the leader and president of <a href="https://checkwithsec.sec.gov.ph/check-with-sec/index" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kanlungan Youth Mission Church Incorporated</a>., officially registered with the SEC
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our ministry was built from a simple but deeply personal calling: to create a spiritual home where young people and families can encounter Jesus, grow in faith, and belong to a loving church family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For the past 3–4 years <a href="https://kanlunganyouthmissionchurch.org/history/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">our congregation</a> has been gathering in our small house in the Philippines. 
</div>

<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Even in that limited space, we have seen God move as more young people, children, and families joined us in worship, prayer, discipleship, and fellowship. What began in a humble home has become a growing community of faith with a clear vision for the future.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our vision is to become a dream home for this generation — a place filled with the love of Jesus and a family they can call on. Our mission is to provide rest for the lost, the orphans, and the stranger by leading people into a real and life-giving relationship with Jesus Christ. This mission shapes everything we do: <a href="https://kanlunganyouthmissionchurch.org/category/outreach/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">youth discipleship</a>, <a href="https://kanlunganyouthmissionchurch.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">worship gatherings</a>, community outreach, <a href="https://kanlunganyouthmissionchurch.org/category/outreach/feeding/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">feeding programs</a> for children, <a href="https://kanlunganyouthmissionchurch.org/category/outreach/children-festival/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">children’s festivals</a> , and <a href="https://kanlunganyouthmissionchurch.org/category/outreach/missions/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">mission work</a> in distant communities.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At the heart of Kanlungan Youth Mission Church is a desire to raise a generation that knows Christ, serves others, and finds lasting hope in Him. As our ministry continues to grow, we are praying for a permanent place where this vision can flourish more fully and where more lives can be reached for God’s glory.
</div>

</div>
<div><strong>My Journey</strong>
</div>
<div>For the last three years, I have been working in aviation at London Stansted Airport as an aircraft mechanic. I took this job to support my family and to help fund our pioneering ministry back home.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Through this work, I was able to purchase land for our future church building. However, the cost of construction is far beyond what I can sustain alone, especially while living away from my family and congregation.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Over time, it has become clear that my presence as a full-time pastor is now more needed than the financial support I can send from abroad. Our young people need consistent leadership and guidance — something I cannot fully provide while working overseas.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Most of our members are young people and children who are still establishing their lives. They give faithfully, but they cannot carry the financial burden of building a church.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why We Are Raising Funds</strong>
</div>
<div>We are raising £50,000 to build a simple but permanent church structure that will serve as:
</div>
<div>• A safe place for worship and teaching
</div>
<div>• A centre for youth ministry and discipleship
</div>
<div>• A venue for feeding programs and children’s activities
</div>
<div>• A stable home for our growing congregation
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This building will allow us to expand our outreach, strengthen our programs, and provide a proper environment for young people and families to grow spiritually.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How Funds Will Be Managed</strong>
</div>
<div>Because I currently live in the United Kingdom, GoFundMe requires that all donations be withdrawn to my UK bank account. From there, I will send 100% of the funds to the Philippines through secure transfer methods such as Wise or Remitly.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I will provide updates, photos, receipts, and construction progress reports. Transparency and accountability are priorities for me and for our church.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Thank You</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you are unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser already helps us greatly. Your support — in any form — contributes to building a place where young people and families can grow spiritually and find community.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for standing with us in this mission.
</div>
<div><br />
