On a quiet hillside in the village of Makagwaq, on Palawan Island in the western Philippines, 71-year-old Antonita Bibas teaches her grandchildren an ancient script. Known only to few, the isolated mountains and coastlines of Palawan are home to a rich but fragile culture. The script - adopted by indigenous Tagbanua people many hundreds of years ago - tells of the intricate cultures that once thrived on Palawan.
PRAY :
God's glory in the ancient scripts will be preserved to reflect a facet of himself. (Revelation 7:9)
For this tribe to discover their redemptive gifting and worship their Creator for his glory in them.
