Merry Christmas!!!

Merry Christmas!!!


Let us not forget the true meaning of Christmas. :D

For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on His shoulders.
And He will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9:6

Merry Christmas to all!!!

Another Great Events, hehe

Another Great Events, hehe

Hello everyone. :D Praise God! We’ve been in for a very very very busy week. We have just had our Thanksgiving Celebration & Christmas Party last Sunday, it was great. A while ago, we’ve just bought toys & fruits for our Christmas outreach (don’t know really what is the name of that event, please tell me, hehe) on 25 to some of the hospitals of Santiago – they are De Vera’s hospital, Callang hospital & Southern Isabela General Hospital (SIGH). Pray for us as we go there. We’re all sooo excited about it. :D

Last Monday, we’ve launched our “Street Pastors” ministry (correct me pastor if I’m wrong about the title, hehe). It was great & so challenging & we want to be like Jesus! It’s hard to invite people to come into our churches, that’s why we’ve got to go to the them. Just like what our Lord Jesus did, He didn’t spent much of His time at church but He spent most of His time with the people outside of the church, people who are in need of care, of freedom, of healing, of life, of love & of salvation. Before we went to the market that afternoon, we first held a meeting @ CCS Main Church office. There Pastor Mark shared to us what Jesus did, not sure about the chapter & verses but it’s on the book of Luke, & we’re all encouraged, challenged & very excited. I’m a bit nervous but really challenged coz it’s my first time to do it. I think even the others, especially the youths. It was really great! We’ve been to many places, we shared how God loved them & how He gave His life for them. Some we’re not open about it but many are responsive & very open. We’ve prayed for them, we spoke peace, we prayed for their freedom, we lead them to the cross & we declared war to the enemy. We believe that Santiago City will be Saturated through this. We will prepare the way of the Lord in Santiago! Santiago City is for the Lord & He’s looking for someone who will stand up for Him, He’s looking for someone who is available – “Your availability is your best ability”. Will you stand up for Him at your school, family, neighborhoods, friends & work?

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.”

Colossians 3:23-24

And also that night, Monday night, we’ve had bowling with my core group. We had a great time, Peter was with us. We have enjoyed it, :D. It was great. After that, we’ve gone to McDo to eat. :D & then we’ve gone home. Especial Thanks to the Ritchie & Strachan family who provided all our expenses & especially to God. :D

Have a blessed Christmas season. God Bless to all of you.
& to God be all the glory! :D

The Power To Choose

The Power To Choose

Praise the Lord! Last week, our brothers & sisters in God from Singapore came to have their missions trip here @ Santiago. We’re truly blessed by them, in the ministry they’ve helped us with, their support, the life they have shared with us, everything. :D A big big thanks to you all, TUO XIE NIE. :D We are looking forward to see you again some time. :D God Bless. And I think tomorrow, again, we have another friend coming here on Santiago, but they are not Singaporeans, they are Scottish, and they are a very very good friend of my dad. Hope everything’s gonna be ok coz, it’s color coding in Manila today. My dad & pastor Adonis have gone there with a service, don’t know what car, pray for them. :D Everyone’s excited on their visit here :D hehe.

Who likes to watch cartoons? Like Superman, Captain America, Wonder Woman, Iron Man, Spiderman & etc. you know, there’s one thing in common for this extraordinary cartoons. They all have extraordinary powers. A few hours ago, this morning, I was in a battle with myself. Whether I will do this bad thing or not. But then suddenly, praise God, God spoke to me. He said, “You have the power choose”. Yes God’s grace is available for us to be victorious & be more than conquerors but we have the power to choose, there are times we are tempted & we know, as Christians, we should not do it but still we have the power to choose. The power to choose what is right and what is wrong. The power to choose whether we choose God or choose satan. “Love the Lord Your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.” Mark 12:30. You know, refusing satan is one way we are saying to Jesus, Lord Jesus I love You. We must not just love our God with our hearts, our souls and minds, but also with all our strength. We have many brothers & sisters in Christ who are experiencing the same, or even worse situations that you have now. But you have the power to choose, Jesus or satan?

Have a blessed day. God Bless,

Yeah, we’re sorry if we haven’t blog for quite a long time. Hehe. But we’ve got some good news for you, :-D. Last week, we had visitors from England. They are only 4, and there is only one youth who has come, and the other three are twice and trice his age, strange huh. hehehe. But well, his name is Jack and he is one of the youth leaders on their church, Rotherham New Life Church. And throughout the week we have him come in our cell groups, feeding programs, BJMP Ministry(Jail Ministry) & youth services and fellowships, of course eating fellowship will never be forgotten, hehehe.

During their stay here, some of our youths have improved their social skills. Hahaha. Frankly, I was shocked at the same time impressed on how they approach our visitors. they're confidence has improved in tagalog figure "makapal na mukha nila" hehehe. Praise God :D. And last Friday, on our youth service, Jack shared the word of the Lord. And he shared about everyone is a leader & be careful who you follow. It was great, the word was great and especially the presence of God was really there. We can feel His presence that night, especially when pastor Marlou called for an altar call, many responded on the message. Then Jack came up on stage and said that if anyone wants to be baptized with the Holy Spirit, come in front, pastor Marlou was interpreting. Then suddenly, after that, the presence of God fall down In our midst, we can feel it and it’s so strong, I believe that some were touched deeply, some were baptized with the Holy Spirit and only 1 youth was slain. Praise the Lord. :-D whooo! To God be all the glory.

Last Sunday, it was our Cornerstone Church United. The program was long, hehehe. Praise God. :D we had 4 preachers from our Cornerstone Churches, they were Sis. Maribel Manango[Don not worry], Ptra. Terese Liday[Trusting the Lord], Ptr. Henry Rustia[Dream] and Ptr. Mark[Faith without deeds is useless]. It was great, the last preacher was pastor Mark and he summed up all what the others have preached and many responded on the message. It was great. :D praise God.

Starting today, the Tri-district conference has begun. Different people from 3 districts will come for this prayer conference. it's called Power Conference and it's theme is "SEEKING THE LORD, REAPING THE HARVEST."f Sefton Village ain't enough to accomodate such number of people for their rooms, so each church near Sefton will accomodate some people. Our church have accomadated 50 women, hehe. Pastor Marlou was talking to us about doing the extra mile, so tonight we'll be ushering them to the church, serving them, doing the best for them, doing the extra mile. so we're kinda excited tonight. hahaha. this people are serving the Lord and they deserve the best. :D

And lastly, this December 6, 2008, Saturday. We’ll have our evaluation and planning for our church, Cornerstone Church Santiago Main. We’ll report on what happened and our accomplishment this year 2008. And our plans for 2009, :D. If you can see the blog of our senior pastor of our church, CCS Main. He talks about the word he received from the Lord, “Saturate Santiago”. And our vision will come from there. I believe that Santiago is for Christ.

To God be all the glory!
