WHAT BROUGHT THE CORDES TO THE MISSION FIELD?

We can’t believe over 15 years have passed since the Lord of Lords called us from the land we loved in America to do missionary work in a brutal and unloving mountainous area with a people unknowing of our Creator in the deepest mountain areas of Mindanao, Philippines. 

It all started because visiting missionaries came to our home church with a message that reached deep within my heart. 

I couldn’t shake the conviction that God had put on me. He continued speaking Matthew 6:33 to me over and over through different people in and out of the faith and through radio programs I was editing. All this happened at a time when I thought I needed to become more self sufficient. The Lord was teaching me to be reliant on Him and Him alone. He said, “ Seek ye first my kingdom, and all these things shall be added unto you.” 

He didn’t lie. He has continued to keep His word. 

My wife Michelle and I both come from humble beginnings. One from within the church, one from without. Both of us from different parts of the planet. 

One thing that we both share in common is a desire to do the Lord’s work in whatever way He will allow.

With the Lord’s help, we have raised three beautiful children in the mission field: Micaiah, Yzzynne, and Sai Sai. In all these years, He has provided not only for us but for hundreds of others in proclaiming the wonderful hope of eternal life and judgment that has already begun. 

We are nearing the end of all things as we have known it. Please join us in prayer as we each move forward, preparing not only others, but ourselves for that solemn and magnificent day of meeting Christ and God and the Heavenly Host in their return to ransom us for the beginning of what will be the best home any of us could ever dream of.

We invite each one reading this to know that apart from Jesus, there is no hope, but through Christ, “ ALL things are possible.”

It’s time for all of us to Go Be Do!
