The Gift of a Child

Behold, children are a gift of the Lord,

The fruit of the womb is a reward.

Psalms 127:3 (New American Standard Version)

God has blessed us with two children, Joseph Celso and Eunice Lauren. They have brought us so much joy and challenge on how to raise them. It is our desire and prayer that they too in God's perfect time will come to know Christ and serve also in the ministry.

I just celebrated my birthday. Since the start of the month, I  have made self reflections of what I am now and compared the past years of my life. God made me realized of the things that I needed to work on to keep me growing in faith. It also made me grateful for everything I have in my life and desired to want more of Him.

Remembering my childhood days, growing up in a Christian family, I got used in going to church every Sunday attending Sunday schools. It was my mother who was really eager for us to be present during service programs and activities in the church. She have done the best she could so we can be guided in the principles written in the Bible. In which I now consider to be the very best gift I had from my mother.

Events and Activities 2009

Vacation Bible School 2009 

Last summer, a total of 120 children from Barangay 21, Dumantay, Gulod Itaas and Pallocan West in were taught in our 5 day class for two consecutive weeks. Our Church, Christ’s Stewards Fellowship sponsored these students to enroll in our VBS. Let me share to you that for every Church to host 5 day class for 120 students will need the offerings of an average church a month to cover the expenses of the materials and snacks of these children plus transportation allowances of the teachers going to and from the location of VBS. We spent thousands of pesos for this event alone.
