"JP" and Dr. Johannah Caturan-Pornan

"JP" and Dr. Johannah Caturan- Pornan were approved by the GDMMissions' Board of Directors in October, 2011 as Associate Missionaries.  Both JP and Hannah were raised in Christian homes where God gave them a burden for evangelism and missions at an early age.  JP is a graduate of Doane Baptist Seminary in Iloilo City, Philippines and currently pastor of a local church in Davao.  Johannah is a physician in residency at Davao Doctor's Hospital in Davao City, Philippines.  (Shortly after joining GDMMissions Johannah gave birth to Josh Cadmiel, their first child, with great joy and thanksgiving.)  It is their desire to evangelize the lost, plant churches, and train church leaders using medicine as means of ministry among Muslims who make up 32 percent of the 30 million population of the greater island of Mindanao, Philippines.  As GDMMissions representatives they will coordinate our general ministries in the Philippines. Together they will spearhead Muslim outreach ministries in Mindanao and beyond using medical evangelism.  We look forward with them to seeing how God will work in the lives of JP, Johannah, and their new family as they dedicate their lives to being witnesses for Christ in the Philippines.
