HEAL. RECONCILE. TRANSFORM.

I consider that our present sufferings are not worth
comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.

Romans 8:18 NIV

WHERE WE WORK

Cebu, Philippines
Cebu is one of the most vibrant and historic provinces in the Philippines, known for its rich culture, warm hospitality, and deep-rooted Christian heritage. Home to over 5 million people, Cebu is a hub of commerce and tourism in the Visayas region. While its economy continues to grow—driven by industries like manufacturing, business process outsourcing, and tourism—many communities still face significant challenges. An estimated 17% of the population lives below the poverty line, with limited access to education, healthcare, and stable employment. 

Poverty Culture in Cebu, Philippines
In many communities across Cebu, poverty has become a deeply rooted cultural norm—passed down through generations. Children are often neglected, not out of lack of love, but because of the overwhelming pressure families face just to survive. It’s common for young children to drop out of school to help support their families, missing out on education and opportunities for a better future. At 8:18 Missions, we are working to break this cycle by coming alongside families with hope, resources, and Christ-centered support that brings lasting change.
