The 1st Senior Core Group Assembly
As a new year unfolds, a new session has been created for all seniors (Servants from Unit head and above) to gather in the so called Senior Core group. 22nd January is our first session. “For many are called but few are chosen” – Matthew 22:14 Aside from that verse, the day’s gospel is a timely call as God named his 12 apostles. We are not 12 but we are all called by name. Around 40-50 Servants gathered at St. Joseph’s church room 110 with one purpose, to ignite once again the heart of a Servant! Praise Fest was led by Tito Teting Codog, Abu Dhabi’s Family Ministry…

Tagaytay Trip with SFL
It has been a while since my last groupie outing in the Philippines. I guess the last one was with my GEOS Angels. So this trip with my SFL Brethren excites me! We had a car that picks us up from the airport, courtesy of Ate Lou. During this trip Bro. Christian suggested a “Bank sharing” a type of expense sharing he did with his bros & cousin when he went to Jordan. This is where we all give a certain amount of money considered as a bank where we take all our daily expenses. Once the bank is empty, we then deposit once again up until the last…

TGIT – 10 Counted Blessings
Inspired by the song Blessings by Laura Story… Every day we go through different challenges that are maybe not good – but could they be God’s way of tapping us and reminding us, hey! I remember you that’s why you are in “this” right now… Almost every talk in the community I attend, we are prompted of the blessings that we have at hand. So I thought, why not make a series of blog about it!?! Thought of the title and came up with TGIT- # Counted Blessings! Since Thursday is the start of weekend here in Abu Dhabi, I thought it is a good time to wrap up the…

When Prayers become a hit!
18 March 2016 Here comes my own testimonial of how powerful PRAYERS are! I am saying “PRAYERS” because I am referring to the collective prayers of the people who have heard my plea. I delivered a talk on Loving thy neighbor in one of the CLS a couple of weeks back and on that event, I closed my talk by asking the participants and the service team to pray for me for the struggle that I have been seriously dealing with, related to this commandment. When Prayers become a hit! Indeed, (after the talk) – a week had passed without a sign of that struggle I shared to…

Movie Review : Miracles From Heaven (2016)
Yes I am a fan! For a while I have been looking forward to watch this movie. I have been following Jen taping this film since last year. The plot has been clearly defined in the trailer. A loving family who has 3 daughters and one of them (Annabel) has an incurable disease that up to date science don’t have an answer. “Are you there!?! Can you hear me!?! Cause I can’t hear you”! – Christie Beam (Jen’s character) asked by looking up to heaven. We all go through this moment, when we tend to ask God why, where are you? Why of all people; I or this person…
