Pastor Bob has been transferred to Telemetry as of now. His current medications are aimed at helping his condition, and the doctors are closely monitoring his progress.
The doctors have informed us that Pastor will need to undergo a procedure today, January 22, 2025, at 12 noon called Thrombectomy, which aims to remove the large blood clot that was seen in his CT scan. This procedure is crucial to prevent severe complications such as cardiac arrest, stroke, or bleeding, which could happen at any time. The scan also revealed blood clots in his lungs, and there is already pleural effusion (fluid buildup) in his left lung.
In addition to the procedure, radiation therapy will also be done to help dissolve the blood clots.
By God's grace, Pastor's blood pressure and oxygen levels remain stable and normal. Despite the seriousness of his condition, the doctors are amazed at his strength. It is crucial that this procedure is done as soon as possible.
Please continue to pray for wisdom and guidance for the doctors. Pray that Pastor’s current medications will be effective, and let us also seek God’s provision, as the procedure will cost ₱850,000. As well, please pray for strength and comfort for Ma’am Myra and the family during this time.

A Thousand Acts of Compassion: Making a Difference for Pastor Bob
"And of some have compassion, making a difference." - Jude 1:22
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has shared their blessings and supported Pastor Bob in this time of need. As of January 26, 2025, the total funds raised amount to ₱207,400.00. Here is the breakdown of contributions:
• GCash ₱120,000.00
• EastWest ₱30,000.00
• GoFund ₱14,800.00
• Cash ₱42,600.00
We are deeply thankful for your generosity and compassion.
As of January 27, 2025, Pastor Bob has been given a discharged order, and the net hospital bill stands at ₱1,689,198.82, which includes the following deductions:
• PWD Discount: -₱237,895.76
• PHIC Discount: -₱41,535.00
After these deductions, the total hospital bill is ₱1,409,768.06. An initial payment of ₱130,000.00 was made on January 26, 2025, leaving a remaining balance of ₱1,279,768.06.
With the available funds of ₱77,400.00, we still need to raise ₱1,202,368.06 to fully settle the balance. The hospital has given us two weeks to complete the payment while Pastor Bob continues his recovery at the ward while awaiting the completion of the payment. We are calling on 1,000 kind hearts to contribute at least P1,000 each to help cover his medical expenses.
Let us continue to pray and work together to meet this goal. Your continued support, whether through prayers, financial help, or sharing this message, is a blessing and a testament to the compassion that makes a difference. Thank you for being part of this effort!
