BACK IN THE UK.

The reason for my delay in posting this year has been due to my own health problem. I am currently back in the UK as I had to have an Angiogram due to having been diagnosed with Angina earlier in the year. Since returning at the beginning of October I have had an Angiogram quickly followed by an Angioplasty whereby two stents were implanted in my main arteries to alleviate the Angina. Since this was carried out I'm now in recovery mode and undergoing Cardio Rehabilitation and I must confess to feeling much better than I did before the Angioplasty was carried out. I am looking forward to returning to Talakag and of course assisting the hard working team at Bethany however I can.
So now you know the mystery has been solved and once again I apologise for not keeping up with events as they occur.

PASSING OF OUR CEO.

It's with much sadness that I have to inform all my readers of the passing of our CEO Mr Greg Longcob.


 Greg sadly suffered a heart attach on the 30th of October 2013 and was interned at Bethany's Private Cemetery after a moving service which was well attended. Greg was born on the 21st September 1951 and had just celebrated his 62nd birthday. Greg had spent most of his life at Bethany and will always be remembered as a Bethany child. During his time as CEO he has worked tirelessly along with his wife Rose to ensure the continuation of Bethany as a facility to raise and place needy children as well as provide an education for many children in the town of Talakag and nearby barrios.

 This year has been traumatic having seen the passing of Rachel (Chichi) Sulatan and now Greg, I ask you all where possible to pray and assist however you can to enable the good works of Bethany to continue as your help required more than ever.
