Helping in food relief I want to give you an update on what I am doing now. We have just started running both schools (SOW and DTS) in YWAM Davao. I am not currently staffing any of these schools, but I am currently part of the Support team at the base, where we serve/assist both schools and the base in various ways, such as buying/preparing food and doing local ministries. However, my current task is to oversee some of the photography of the base and transport teams at ministry locations. You may have heard about the earthquakes in the Philippines, and I want to let you know that although I felt them, I am safe and unhurt. However, in this regard, our team recently assisted with recovery efforts in Manay, Davao Oriental, which was a major epicenter of these earthquakes. In this, we brought food and supplies to those affected. Another update I want to give you is that our Team (Support Team) decided to do a two-week outreach in Palawan. We plan to carry out ministries in various settings, including a prison, church, and tribal ministries. We will do it in November, and the current outreach fee is 15,000 pesos or $260. This is for both the airplane tickets and the accommodation there. If you have it in your heart to help me cover this fee, please consider it in prayer. But again, I want to thank you guys for your prayers and support during this season. Your support is a major blessing and a great help to me on this journey. Thank you, -Lemuel Prayer Points:

I would like to provide you with an update on my activities over the past few months. During June through August, YWAM Davao hosted two back-to-back outreach teams from Mexico and Orlando, Florida. During this time, I was tasked with serving as a Driver for the team (Driving my van and the Base’s K truck), a Photographer, and occasionally worked as a tour guide. Additionally, outside of catering to the teams, I also assisted with building/welding projects around the base, where we welded a frame and built a roof for the base’s tools room. Now, an Update on my van: I would like to thank you all very much for your prayers and help with funding for the van. I was able to bless the staff and outreach teams with this van by transporting them to ministry locations. It has been running very well, with only minor issues. I have driven this thing across roads and off-road sections around Mindanao. With your guy’s help, I was able to get bigger wheels for the car and interior parts to accommodate more passengers. We have just finished hosting the Orlando team, and I will then continue to work on the base’s building projects in preparation for the Discipleship Training School (DTS) and School Of Worship (SOW) that will be held here. In that, I will continue welding and learn electrical work. Please keep me in your prayers as I continue to learn/practice new skills and serve the base. Thank you, -Lemuel Prayer Points:
I want to let you know that I have just finished my Biblical Core Course (BCC). The challenge was yet a rewarding experience. I got an excellent introductory overview of the Bible’s timeline and how it connects. I also learned to study the Bible Inductively and its different genres. Then, with that, I was taught how to make sermons to teach others about what I had learned. I have enjoyed my time with the staff, teachers, and classmates and made many great memories. In addition, right after my BCC, I staffed YWAM Davao’s three-day Balod Camp/Summer Camp as a videographer, photographer, and editor. I had an amazing time there and improved my video/editing skills. Now, I am preparing for another summer camp in Butuan, where I will do the same work. Also, after much prayer and decision-making, I have purchased a small van for ministry use. It is a Japanese surplus Suzuki Everly, a small 3-cylinder engine K van. I bought the van for both personal use and ministry use, which is transporting outreach teams to their targeted locations and back. I have paid $3,275 for the van. If you would like to cover some of the cost of the van, please click this link. Your support will be a major help for me and greatly appreciated. And finally, thank you so much, everyone, for your prayers and support. Your help is a major blessing for me in my ministry in the Philippines. Again, thank you so much for your help. Please keep me in your prayers as I do my ministry work in Davao. With a grateful heart, -Lemuel Prayer Points:
Hello Everyone. I want to let you know that I have safely arrived in Davao and just started my BCC. The first couple of days in Davao were amazing. So far, I am enjoying my time here. I was able to reconnect with friends and classmates from my DTS, and I was also able to meet new friends. I have started my BCC (Biblical Core Course). So far, while the BCC is not easy, it is very interesting and helpful for learning more about the Bible. This week, we went through and studied the whole book of Genesis, and we will go through more books in the next coming weeks. Thank you so much, everyone, for your prayers and support. I am finally beginning my adventure in the Philippines, and it would not have been possible without your help. Again, thank you so much, and please keep me in your prayers as I go through this three-month BCC. Thank you so much. I am looking forward to sharing more updates on my journey. -Lemuel Prayer Points:
My Uncle Rodel picking me up at the airport I'm thrilled to share with you that I've recently arrived in Manila, Philippines, where I'll be spending time with my family until February. It's wonderful to be back in this beautiful country and to have this opportunity to reconnect with loved ones. As I prepare to embark on my next adventure, I'm excited to share that I'll be starting my Biblical Core Course (BCC) atYWAM Davao in February. This is a significant milestone for me, and I'm eager to dive deeper into the Word of God. I am so grateful to each of you for your prayers and support. Your encouragement means the world to me, and I'm thankful to have you standing with me on this journey. As I prepare to take this next step, I'm trusting that God will guide me and equip me for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Thank you again for your love and support. I look forward to sharing more updates with you as I begin this new chapter. Blessings, Lemuel I hope this update finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support and prayers as I prepare for this new chapter in my life. I'm excited to share with you the latest developments. I am planning to do a Biblical Core Course (BCC) in Davao. This 3-month training will be where I'll dive deep into the Word and learn how to study it inductively. I'm still working with DoorDash to help cover my expenses, along with raising monthly support, and I've recently secured my plane tickets for the trip. My plan is to arrive in Manila in January and spend some time with my relatives before heading to Davao in February. That's where I'll begin the BCC course in YWAM Davao, and I'm looking forward to being part of this amazing community. After completing the course, I'll be joining the staff with YWAM Davao for the next three years. As I start on this new journey, I'd be honored if you could join me in prayer and financial support. Your support would be a huge blessing, and I'd be grateful if you would partner with me through monthly support by clicking here. Your investment would help launch me into missions, and I'd be forever grateful. Thank you for journeying with me. Lemuel Prayer Points:
In YWAM Richmond for Summer Teams Hello, everyone; I want to update you on what is going on in my life. Last July, I volunteered for Richmond’s summer teams, and it was a blessing to serve them. I really enjoyed getting to know the staff and students and seeing how God used our outreaches and community services to touch the lives of those around us. As of right now, I am currently working and raising support for the necessary funds for my flight ticket and staff fees. So I can staff in YWAM Davao, Philippines. I am presently delivering for DoorDash and working in lawn care to help raise money. I am also helping my parents in YWAM Lynchburg, and we are starting to minister to students as the college year begins. I'd like to ask for your prayers as I navigate this next chapter. Your support would help launch into missions, and I'd be grateful if you could consider partnering with me through monthly support by clicking here. Thank you for journeying with me. Blessings, Lemuel Campbell If you have any questions, you can text me at 980-239-3927 or my dad at 720-401-8347 Prayer Points:
It’s been a while since I completed my Discipleship Training School (DTS), and I wanted to give you an update on what’s been happening in my life. First and foremost, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to each of you for your unwavering support and prayers during my DTS. Your encouragement made a world of difference. During my DTS, my eyes were truly opened to how the Lord works through various ministries. My outreaches in Thailand and Indonesia allowed me to witness firsthand how God moves in Buddhist and Muslim nations. I was so blessed by my time in DTS, which deepened my relationship with God and blessed me with many wonderful friendships. Once again, thank you so much for your prayers and support. Recently, I decided to stay home with my family to help them move to our new house. In addition, I’m assisting my parents with their work at YWAM Lynchburg and traveled with my dad to Florida to attend Loren Cunningham’s Legacy tour. This July, I will volunteer at YWAM Richmond to help run their summer teams. After the summer, I’ll be working and raising support, as I plan to return to Davao next year to serve as staff. After much prayer, I feel called to commit to staffing in Davao for three years starting in April 2025. Right now, I ask for your prayers as I work and raise the necessary funds for next year. Will you support me through a monthly gift by clicking here? This is a major step for me, and your prayers are deeply appreciated. Thank you for journeying with me. Blessings, Lemuel Campbell If you have any questions, you can text me at 980-239-3927 or my dad at 720-401-8347 Hello Everyone, I am happy to tell you I have finished my first month of DTS. I arrived back in September, and I was able to spend time with my family for eight days before arriving in Davao. Currently, I am enjoying my time here in Davao. The staff and my classmates are very kind. I am also blessed by the lectures for the past weeks and have received many new revelations. As of now, I have mostly adapted to the place, culture, and weather. I have learned and studied topics such as the Nature of God, Hearing God’s Voice, The Kingdom of God, and The Word of God. Right now, I am in my 5th lecture on Worship as a Lifestyle. Other than that, I am also preparing for my two-week midterm outreach from November 11 to 24, which will be at a church in Carmen Augusan Del Norte. I will be doing church ministry, door-to-door ministry, and reaching out to the people in the mountains. I want to thank you for very much for your prayers and support these past months. It has been a help for me and in my journey. Right now, I noticed that a good portion of my classmates are not able to pay their student fees due to financial limitations. So please pray for them, and if you feel like supporting them, you can donate to them via PayPal [email protected]. Afterword, please email me at [email protected] when you do so. Again, thank you so much for your prayers and support. With heartfelt thanks, -Lemuel Campbell Hello everyone, I'm thrilled to share some exciting news with you. Through hard work and your generous support, I've successfully gathered the funds needed for my upcoming journey to the Philippines and my Discipleship Training School (DTS). Your prayers and generous support have been a huge encouragement to me during this journey. As I prepare to say goodbye to family and friends here in the US, I'm filled with gratitude for the time we've shared. Upon arriving in the Philippines, I'll spend almost two weeks with my family. Then, in October, I'll head to my DTS for this next phase of life. I want to express my deepest appreciation for your belief in me. Your support has made this adventure possible, and I look forward to sharing my experiences and growth with you along the way. Thank you for being a vital part of this journey. With heartfelt thanks, Lemuel |
