iEDGE: Philippines

Serve in a vibrant university town shaped by deep Filipino culture, colonial history, and a strong spiritual openness. Alongside Filipino staff and leaders, you’ll build relationships with students, grow in cross-cultural ministry, and help share the hope of the gospel.

Destination

  • The prestige and quality of an education at the University of the Philippines at Los Baños (UPLB) draws students from all over the Philippines.
  • Spanish and American influences have helped shape Filipino culture and history.
  • Many university students have grown up in the Catholic church yet lack an understanding of the gospel.

Team

  • Two long-term Filipino staff couples and two more young national couples will team up with the iEDGErs at UPLB.
  • The iEDGE UPLB team will gain exposure to Filipino Navigators ministering in churches and among communities struggling with poverty.

Serve

  • Enjoy engaging with university students and making disciples at UPLB, as your joint Filipino and iEDGE team trusts God’s promises for the people of Los Baños.

just recent graduates who are…

  1. Walking with God – taking personal responsibility to grow in spiritual disciplines
  2. Developing Ministry Skills – investing in people, sharing their faith, leading studies, etc.
  3. Pursuing Purity – openness rather than hiddenness (awareness of struggles, record of growth, inviting accountability)
  4. Relationally Mature – Emotionally aware, able to self-disclose, and preferably team experience
