It is designed to equip individuals for their future ministries as Pastors and Missionaries. Its Vision is to Train Thousands of Believers to reach the Asians through the Nationals.

The Need for HBBC:
HBBC started because of the need to train Men and Women of God in becoming an effective servant of the Lord.

The Goal of HBBC is to help Local Churches of CFBC and Fellowshipping Churches in Training and Equipping their Young People for the Lord. Every local Church has great need for workers from Song Leader up to Pastoral Positions. HBBC will be the Education arm of every local churches in reaching the World.

Ptr. Emerson Murillo

I am Bro. Emerson D. Murillo, Missionary Pastor in Cornerstone Fundamental Baptist Church Mariveles, Bataan, Philippines. I graduated at Heartbeat Baptist Bible College (HBBC). I got saved last June 14, 2010 through the ministry of CFBC-Mariveles under Bro. Jeffrey F. Ofrecio of Cfbc Limay and I was baptized last March 2011.

I'm so blessed and thankful to God for giving an opportunity to share my testimony. Since the time that I decided to serve God and wanted to follow Him, God immediately answered my prayer and I desired to go to HBBC under Pastor Ramil Q. Ofrecio and Pastor James L. Johnson. I, first thought that being a bible student was the hardest part of being a servant of our Lord Jesus Christ. But I realized, the real battle is in the mission field, no more excuses, if's, and don'ts. It is more difficult than I ever imagined. However, it is the best decision I made in my entire life, Yes, there's a lot of difficulties, but it is my joy to serve Him.

In our pioneering years, we experienced to fight the battle in winning souls and it is not that easy as you think because most of the people in Mariveles specially in Brgy. Camaya they really know who I was back then. I experienced different persecutions, how? Some instances that I've encountered was sharing the Word of God to people but not all were sincerely accepting Him. A lot of them rejected the Gift of Salvation. Not only that, but also in inviting them to go to church every Sunday because our church that time is located at the backyard of one of our members (Mr. and Mrs. Sonny and Emily Garcia). We don't have any roofing and flooring, and when it rains, we are using their house to conduct a service. Even though we experienced these situations, I always praise God despite of trials we're able to surpassed all of this wonderful beginnings. But now, in His grace and mercy we are enjoying His provision and transformation from being nothing (referring to things like accompaniment, chairs and etc.) to blessing. We don't have our own church lot and building yet but there's a place to use. One of the big blessings I received in the ministry was my family when they all got saved, specially my father who persecuted me back then but now he is my number one supporter in the ministry.

Out of God's ministry in CFBC Mariveles, we produced 2 pastors from Tamayo Family: Pastor Joshua C. Tamayo and Pastor John Lerry C. Tamayo. Both of them are continuing serving and using their life to God. Last June 2019, God sent another 2 bible students under CFBC Mariveles: Bro. Mark Lender C. Rinon and Bro. John Jefferson I. Reyes, admiring and soaring to become a pastor. Moreover, we thank God for another opportunity He opened for us. This year we are conducting campus ministries in Ipag and Camaya Highschool & Senior Higschool and we have a total of 600 student weekly teach by yours truly together with Bro. Alfredo R. Catain and Bro. Mark Lender C. Rinon. I am blessed to have a beautiful wife, Sis. Anita C. Murillo, who helps and supports the ministry as she can. We are praying to have a complete family. We're still waiting for the most precious and best gift from God on the perfect time and reason.

We are asking your prayers for God's provisions, continuous blessing and support not only for CFBC Mariveles but for the entire Mission of Cornerstone Fundamental Baptist Church (CFBC) including Balanga, Pilar, Dinalupihan, Zambales, Pampanga and Main Limay. Thank you! God bless us all!

A blessed day everyone! I am one of the pioneering and Alumni students of HBBC. June 14, 2010, when I got saved. On the following year in February 2011, I decided to follow the water baptism at CFBC. After that, many trials arise, but God's calling can never be delay by it. In October 2011, I followed my calling in God's ministry. Since then, God had blessed me to finish my course in the year of 2015. Every student's hard work, God gave me an astounding award to be a "Preacher of the Year."

After I graduated at HBBC, I served as an Associate Pastor to my Mother Church CFBC from 2015 to 2017.

Last March 26, 2017, I was sent out to a mission field in the Province of Zambales. I, then, started a mission work at San Isidro, Subic, Zambales. During June 2017, up to the present, God pours out his blessings upon ministerial work. We are looking forward to God's provision to us to win more souls, to establish bible studies, to children ministry, to campus ministry, and other ministerial work for the growth of the ministry, through the help of our Lord Jesus Christ with our church members.

Please, continue to pray for the ministry that would be established and let us all pray to God that these ministries become fruitful for God's Glory. Thank you very much and Godbless!

Not only that, with continued growth in faith of our members, we have the privilege of sharing God's Word and teaching children about God.

Bro. Michael Angelo Carreon

I am Bro. Michael Angelo Carreon. I studied at Heartbeat Baptist Bible College (HBBC) for 4 years from 2015-2019 and graduated in Bachelor of Theology last April 14,2019.

A wonderful day! Brothers and sisters in faith. Again, I was given the privilege to share what the Lord has done for me. Way back 2015, when I knew that our Lord Jesus Christ is our Saviour, through the Basketball game that we had, and at that time, I always attend church. When our church, CFBC, had an event which is Youth Camp in which young people who are happily serving God, were gathered, and that is also when I gave my life to serve the Lord. After that, my parents joined me in serving the Lord. Now, the Lord has given me the opportunity to study in America, and truly God is alive and blessing us.

I am praying for the land of Pangasinan, wherein we will establish the great ministry of God, which is CFBC Pangasinan. By now, we will do our very best here in America with God's grace and guidance for us to do what we are planning for the ministry of God. I am asking for your prayers for all of these. Again, thank you, everyone! To God be all the Glory!
