I thank God for lifting me up everytime I fall.

FAMILY OUTING @ LAKE VILLA

It's my mom's birthday yesterday but we chose to celebrate her special day last Saturday. We went to Lake Villa in Tayuman, Rizal. A resort just a few minutes from our home. We've been to this place for a lot of times that's why we're very much accustomed. We were also lucky that the resort was not crowded during our stay. It felt like we had rented a private pool.

The celebration was double the fun since our relatives from Laguna and the family of my brother in law was with us. Of course, mom was the most happy. It's her 78th birthday and she told us she can't ask for more. She was so blessed to have all of us. And she's thankful to God for this wonderful day.

IT'S ALL WORTH IT

Despite all the hardships that I have encountered in yesterday's election, I may say that it was all worth it. It's actually my first time to have experienced waiting in the long lines which took me two hours just to cast my vote. I was a bit discouraged when I started falling in line. I even thought of coming back to home. But then I realized that I wanted to be part of the very first ever poll automation. "Just a little sacrifice", I told myself. Good thing that I was with my sis and her hubby. We started talking with some familiar faces, then meeting new friends. After a few minutes my brother in law bought something to drink 'coz we were really thirsty.

When I'm finally done with my voting, it felt really, really good. After seeing the confirmation in the PCOS machine I felt very relieved and fulfilled.

It was all worth it 'coz I can proudly say that I have taken my part as a responsible Filipino citizen in the first automated election.

Well, let's just hope and pray for the successful result. That the true mandate of the Filipino people will prevail.

MY COLLEGE FRIENDS

At last, I was able to get in touch with my college friends and we're able to meet personally. I must give credit to Facebook. Such a big, big help to search and be connected with friends. Though we're only three since our other friends are now based in other countries.

For almost 1o years of not seeing each other, It was such a great feeling knowing that the love & the warmth of our friendship still lives on.

We chose to dine at H.K. Choi resto @ the Atrium in Megamall were we had our "making up for the lost times" bonding.

SUMMER CAMP 2010

Hello everyone! I just came back from a 2-day Summer Camp Fellowship which was held @ Villa Dominga Forest Resort in Cavite City. It's our 4th time in the place so it felt like home.

We're fortunate to have found a venue that's so perfect for our fellowship. We always feel comfortable since the owner of the place is very accommodating.

Here are some of our photos:

elder sisters' song offering

our Sunday School kids

youth ministry

our communion & feet washing

We had a few moments to relax after our afternoon service. The kids had their chance to dip in the pool while we were busy with our picture taking.

Another meaningful time spent with my church family.

JOSH' PREP GRADUATION

Last March 22, my nephew Josh graduated from Preparatory School at St. Audrey Learning Center. Although he was first in his class last year, we're still thankful to God that he is 2nd honor this year.

Here are some of his photos..

He was a bit sad after the graduation rites. When I asked him why? He told me that he's going to miss his classmates and teachers, and the school itself since he has studied there for three consecutive years for his nursery, kindergarten and preparatory.

I just told him not to be sad anymore coz on his grade school he'll be studying in a bigger school together with his cousin and that he will meet new friends as well.

He got excited then and forgot all about his sadness.

WHAT A GOOD GOD

This is such a wonderful song. It speaks of what's inside my heart. I want to thank the Lord for He has really been so good, faithful and loving God to me.

What else can I do, but worship Him and praise Him for all the wonderful things He has done.



WHAT A GOOD GOD YOU'VE BEEN TO ME (lyrics)

What a good God You've been to me
The goodness and the grace everyday I see
What else can I do but give thanks to You
What a good God You've been to me

What a faithful God You've been to me
You've provided far beyond everything I need
What else can I do, but give thanks to You
What a faithful God You've been to me

What a loving God You've been to me
Shed Your blood on the cross so that I could be made free
What else can I do, but give thanks to You
What a loving God You've been
What a faithful God You've been
What a good God You've been to me
