    Working as a singer in Japan earned Ken and his wife Leonida a good life. In only a little time, they were able to make plenty of investments. Ken was also blessed with travel opportunities. “We experienced earning millions as a couple,” he recalls.

    But as a Christian couple, their desire was to build a family and serve God even more. Though they both earned hundreds of thousands monthly, still, money didn’t seem to satisfy their longing.  “Our joy was not in earning money. All our money seemed useless at some point."

    In April 2007, leaving a stable career in Japan, Ken and Leonida flew back to the Philippines seeking for more opportunities to serve God and hoping to have a baby. It was then that God revealed His bigger plan for their lives.

    As Ken’s heart was being drawn more and more to fully serve God, he remembered a missionary couple friend they had back in Japan who were trained by the Asian Center for Missions (ACM). Ken got in touch with them and, heeding God’s call, enrolled at ACM to be a missionary.

    “I told myself that I would give up everything for the Lord,” he says. “I want people to see that true joy does not come from material possessions but in serving Jesus."

    Working in Japan for years, Ken saw the country’s serious problem with prostitution and the rising number of suicides. “God gave me the chance to experience these realities to give me a passion and burden to reach them.”

    Today, Ken is in the last leg of ACM’s comprehensive 6-month Missionary Training Program at the ACM Angeles City center preparing him for his target country Japan. Though he’s had to trade earning millions of pesos, for him, there is no greater joy than serving God!
