Missionary Profile:

Nonoy and Cathy are from Dinalupihan, Bataan. They were fruits of NTSM students’ pioneering work in Tipo Christian Church. They underwent missionary training at New Tribes School of Missions, decided to get married after, and joined NTMPI in 1991. Together, they started a church-planting ministry among the Calamian Tagbanua tribe in Coron, Palawan in different islands such as Malawig, Tara, and Lajala. In 2010 they pioneered a church “Jesus the Good Shepherd Christian Church” for the Calamian- Tagbanua who lived in the town of Coron. They then moved from Lajala and settled in the town. Presently, they visit churches in different islands: teaching, training, and mentoring pastors and their wives as well as church leaders. They are also involved in a family and parenting ministry; giving medical assistance and scholarship for the Calamian Tagbanua students. Cathy and Nonoy are blessed with four grown-up children: Bernard Jesse, Melissa, Jeremiah, and Lajala Mae.
