From 1983 – 1995, Betty and John, lived as missionaries in the Philippine Islands, where her teaching skills were put to use in educating adults in the Bible and Ministerial Training Center the Cedergrens founded together with their adult daughter, Karen. In 1990, while living in the Philippines, Betty also founded one of the first Christian Preschools in the Province of Tarlac. The Bible School and the Preschool are still in operation today.
