- John-David is visiting the Phillippines with Nathan and Lawson Bates for a 3 week period. They have handed out medicine to thankful storm victims. John and them have seen many sites where love ones have buried their close friends or relitives. As soon as Nathan heard about the terrible tropic storm that swept through the Phillipeans in November he was ready to help. Continue to pray for the victims and also John, Nathan, and Lawson while they help people throughout their hard times.
