No awk, that's very odd. Assuming you have Kshell or bash, have a go with this. Replace the directory names with yours (I used the ones here to test).

Code:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# change the directory names to be your source, destination and filter
sdir=src     
ddir=dest
fdir=filter

# use find to prevent issues if there are a lot of *.txt files
find $sdir -name "*.txt" | while read file
do
    grep -f $fdir/filter $file >$ddir/${file##*/}
done

You might want to remove the line of dashes from your filter file since that is not a potential pattern in one of your source files you'll waste time with each line in each grep trying to match it.
