Pastor Noel Alberto's Testimony - A Life Transformed by God





Pastor Noel and Gina Alberto
It was a wonderful opportunity to meet Pastor Noel Alberto and his wife, Gina, when the medical mission team went to Cabuyao, Laguna, Philippines last August 2014. His beautiful family welcomed the medical mission team in their house and prepared our breakfast and dinner during the medical mission proper.

He is a very humble man, who always talk about the Lord's greatness with the people he met everywhere and to those who are in prison.

We truly consider it a privilege to be able to work along side him in the mission field this August. His life is a testimony of God's amazing grace to sinners just like us. God's word is transforms people. It is alive and active and it takes sinners who hate Him and love sin and turns them into lovers of God who hate sin and wish for others to experience God for themselves.



Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. 
- 2 Corinthians 5:7, NASB 


For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace.

- John 1:16, ESV
For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.  For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

Ephesians 2:8-10, ESV
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins.  It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.
- Romans 3:23-26, ESV
