Gratitude
Gratitude We often hear the priests and our brethren in the community to Give Thanks to the Lord. In most of our teachings, I always hear that we rob ourselves of blessings by not thanking God for what all that he has done, is doing and will do for us.

I will take up the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord.” Therefore in this post, I would like to share my own thoughts on the specific ways to express gratitude to the Almighty one!

Amazed
Not mentioning an almost lowbat phone… Here is my status – right the moment, God rescued me! Note: This entry is supposed to be published on 7 Oct. 2014 Today is my first day of work after the long Eid break + one full week of training (Away from the stress at work for 11 days – including the weekends)… And when I say stress it means working all by yourself alone. Truth be told, yes, I was almost alone in our unit – others extended their Eid break and therefore the loads are on my shoulders again. Well~ I’m not complaining… I just want to give a…

AUREA
Getting to know a Saint : ST. AUREA Another 3rd Week has come – this August All Sistars were assigned to “GET TO KNOW A SAINT”. I was given St. Aurea.

PANAY (Capiz)
PANAY (CAPIZ) So the wedding bells have been wrapped up and The Kokobears are off to our round 2 reception at Roxas City. The schedule was a real deal hectic one. Earlier we were in Oslob, the next were in Mactan and this time we’re visiting the world’s biggest bell (still working up to date) in PANAY! Just a few minutes from Roxas City is the beautiful & enchanting church of Panay. Darrelle (not used to have his first name J ) took me there by a motorcycle. Oh! Something new I discovered about my husband! A joy ride of around 20-30 minutes, seeing the vast wet lands of…
