Last weekend was a blast.
1. We had our annual "Me and My Dad Camp". We had about 130 dads that came plus their kids. One dad brought 4 of his kids. He has become my hero since.
We did fun and crazy stuff from making our own kites, war games, egg relay, sack race, tug o' war, roasting marshmallows/hotdogs... For pics, click
here.
It was awesome to see dads not only bond but take time to pray and connect with their kids. My daughter,
Janina, said that she saw her friend in tears when dads took time to pray for their kids. I asked her why. She said that her friend was simply touched by the moment of prayer (dads and kids).
I know that memories that were built will definitely last a lifetime.
Kudos to Jeremir Dolores, Jeff Eliscupides, Alfred Albarracin, Lel Jingco, Jojo Mangilad, Dodie Garcia, Jeff Pickrell for making all these possible. Thank you to Weena for doing a lot of the behind the scenes prep.
2. Seeing our teachers (Glen Quizon, Jimson Uy and Norvic Cheng) rise up to preach to the kids in our weekend services was indeed a great encouragement. We are definitely raising up men and women who are much better than us. Kids are going home full of the word.
3. Pastor
Sean Morris from Austrailia preached at the 5 and 7 pm services at
Victory Fort. He spoke about "Becoming". It was powerful. At the end of his message, my prayer was "Lord, help me to become all that you called me to be."

BABY UPDATE:
For those who are praying for our baby, thanks so much. We've been told that several have been praying and fasting for our baby's healing. We surely appreciate it.
We visited our doctor last Thursday. She said that we'll need a congenital scan in 6 weeks to confirm the 2 cysts found in the baby's brain. We are in faith that God will do a miracle from now till then. Please stand with us in prayer. We will continue to move in faith not in fear.
Thanks again.
