The power of prayer

This week's coffee break from Jan.

If I have to write how the power of prayer touched my life? I’ll probably finish it at the end of the day or maybe I can not finish it all.

So I really do not know how to start because even how big or how small the answered prayer was it still touched my heart in so many different ways.

Seeing my parents happy and healthy- that’s a prayer answered.

Being healed from any sickness – that’s a prayer answered

Needs being met-that’s a prayer answered

And I can go on and on and on.

Prayer is not something I do when I need something from God. Prayer is not only asking and pleading. It is how I communicate with my Lord, it can only be a whisper in the morning as I wake up or it can be words being said to HIM during and in between office hours.

I know I don’t need to kneel long hours to say a prayer nor a thousand words.

I just talk to HIM and talking to HIM makes all the difference in my life.

Children of HOPE

This is our new area for Children of HOPE ministry, we started the feeding two Saturdays ago, The kids doubled last Saturday and the food we brought wasn't enough to feed them all. They all sang with us and listen to the first bible story we narrated. It's amazing how God uses these kids to fill me and hubby with happiness, there are also parents from the place who helped us in feeding them especially in lining up the kids for the food distribution.






May the LORD bless them and may He use our ministry to change the lives of the parents of these kids and our prayer is that they will be able to get to know and have a personal relationship with the Lord through this ministry.

Our Friday night with Sonicflood

Here are some of our pictures from the Sonicflood concert last Friday, boy it was raining hard but people from all walks of life made it through and sing and shout praises to God! Indeed, what a beautiful, inspiring concert!

Hubby managed to grab a photo with Gary V.

Thankful Thursday

I used to do this on my other site but I'm doing it here now because this week's theme is "MINISTRY" and I wanna share with you the ministries me and hubby are doing in our church.

MUSIC MINISTRY
My husband is the music ministry leader and he really has the gift of music, he leads us into worship every Sunday and other church gatherings, I joined the worship team when we got married not because he's my husband but because I know in my heart I do love to sing for the Lord. So I've been a back-up singer ever since and we both enjoy this. There were also low moments in the ministry like when some musicians left us but we know God meant it for good.

FISHNETS-SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
I love this ministry. God put this in my heart last January 2007 and I am so glad that we are now on our second year.Last year we had 3 highschool and one college student.Today, we support 5 students. All of them came from a poor family and all of them wants to finish school. I pray that God will use this ministry to help them and in return they'll be of help to their families too.It's like teaching them how to fish.

BATANG PAG-ASA (CHILDREN OF HOPE)
This is also a ministry that is very close to my heart, every Saturday, our church go to five slum areas and feed around 40 to 50 children per area, we also read to them bible stories, have games and some coloring. We also do hygiene day where we bring them to the center (church) and bathe them, feed them, cut their hairs for free and treat their wounds.At the end of the day we give them some hygiene products like toothbrush, toothpaste and the like. We also have daily Vacation Bible School during summer. Last July we had a quarterly birthday celebration for the kids and they enjoyed it so much. It pains to know that most of the kids never had a birthday celebration in their lives. This coming September we will be having a "Kid's Praisin town-ala school fair" , we want to treat the kids and we want them to feel special and loved.

Here are some old pictures, this was when we brought them to the park.




There are also some pictures here.

I am thankful that God has given us the privilege to serve HIM through all these ministries. I know most of the times I get tired but God is good. He has been so good to us and yes, He never left us, even when we feel we are walking through the dark valleys, I can feel God's presence with us in these ministries He has entrusted us.

I am thankful to everyone who support these ministries, our friends from UK, our churchmates, our church leaders, our pastor, and even people who do not know us at all but is supporting the ministry. Thank you so much from the bottom of our heart.

See some of the entries to Thankful Thursday here.

I wish I could write better though.

Soaking In The River

of God...

We went to Gateway mall last night after office to attend "soaking in the river" it's a 3 hour praise and worship hosted by River of God church. It's actually 3 hour alone with God. We worship, we praised and we rested in the Father's loving arms. It's another wonderful experience and I love it.

There will be another one on September 11, so for those of you who wants to come and have some time of refreshing,please join us at Mandarin Suites, Gateway mall Cubao, Quezon City from 7 to 10 PM.

Made to Worship

That's what we are so I'm naming this new blog of ours as that. And yes, this will not be mine alone but also with the hubby, so once in a while, he will write some entry here especially if it's music.

Why make a new blog?

I wanted a separate site for our ministries alone, for the worship team, for the Batang pag-asa, for the people we minister to like in the area where we are currently assigned right now, our missions and travel together.

I'll be posting lots of picture soon, even pictures from before.

I pray that this blog be an encouragement to everyone, a source of inspiration to serve the Lord and serve the poor as our worship to the one true God.
