Our God is a God of Healing! David Phillips is Now Cancer-Free!

Ohio: God continues to work miracles in the lives of our Nazarene brothers and sisters on the Asia-Pacific Region!

Half a year ago, Southeast Asia Field Strategy Coordinator Rev. David Phillips was diagnosed with Stage 3c cancer.  The succeeding months meant series of Chemo treatments. It was indeed an emotional and challenging time for David and his wife Naomi, but through your prayers they remained strong and faithful to what God has in store for them.

Read the early updates here.

Just this week, David shared this fantastic update on his Facebook page:

Good news! The CT Scan is clear! I am done with Chemo and there is no evidence of cancer. Thank you all for praying and for keeping up with us! 

I will have some lingering numbness for about 1 to 2 months but that should be declining now on a weekly basis. 

I also need to start exercising on a regular basis to rebuild my physical strength.

Our sincerest thanks to everyone who prayed with us for Rev. David’s recovery!
