Let us help our JR brothers and sisters - Typhoon Ondoy caused a great flood

You have probably heard about the devastation that Typhoon Ondoy has brought to our country. I am getting in touch with Ptra. Tess Ramos to ask if there are JR members in Manila and other locations who were affected. You may text her thru her cell: 639178076849 or email her or me at m_armea@yahoo.com. See her email address posted above, at the title plate. I've learned that Ate Mina and her family were victims too. She is giving birth soon and she lost all her baby clothes and I'm sure she lost other important belongings too. Let us help in any way we can. Your prayers and support will be of great help. God bless you!

A life with HIM by Jaira

Once my life was dark

I'd never know if I would even see a little spark

a life full of pain and struggles

a face that is full of sadness


Until my heart felt Him knocking

I see myself kneeling

welcoming Him in to my life

allowing Him to be my guide


in my worries and fears

i know He's there

to wipe my tears

and put a smile on my face


Because I know He loves me

It changed me into someone

I thought I would never be


A life in a continuous process

to be more like HIM

praying for a life that is fully surrendered

to the one who gave Himself for me....JESUS!

Down the Memory Lane...Nakakamiss!

This is what we mean by progress. People come, are used by God and then they move on. New people come each time to train the new generation of leaders. Our God is a God of progress, development, growth and newness. God has a wonderful plan for each of us but let us not forget how and where we started.

Passing on the Mantle, 22nd Anniversary

Wonder What's Happening to Richie? Read on...

I woke up at 3:30 in the afternoon, I turned on the Laptop and went to the kitchen to get my food. Then I went back to my room and sat in front of computer. At that time I was holding a plate of food on my left hand while my right hand was on the laptop, suddenly my mind just went blank and some things flashed back into my mind. God spoke to me, He said, "Give up all of the things that can destroy your life and can distract you for serving me. This is the time, Come and be my servant, for I am the Lord your God. Trust your life and your love ones to me for I will keep them safe night and day." Then my tears never stopped flowing down from my eyes... And my heart was really broken. I can't explain what kind of feeling I felt. I surrender all the things even my life and my family's life to the Lord. And this is it, this is what I can say "The Calling".
> > Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you (declares the Lord) to prosper you not to harm you to give you hope and a future... Psalm 37:4 Delight your self to the Lord and He will give you the desire of your heart. -by Richie Armea

How Jesus saved an Egyptian Mom & her kids, true story as told by Nollie

*You, the Children of Now, can appreciate my storied birth among the children of then..

This was an email by my colleague, a true story that explains how good & faithful our God is.. it was so horrible in the first line when you read it, but as you continue.. in no doubt, it makes you feel, blessed!
This story has a real twist. It has no end but a beginning that touches everybody’s heart..
now.., then.., & after..
"A Muslim man in Egypt killed his wife because she was reading the Bible and then buried her with their infant baby and an 8-year old daughter."
The girls were buried alive! He then reported to the police that an uncle killed the kids. 15 days later, another family member died. When they went to bury him, they found the two (2) little girls under the sand - ALIVE!
The country is outraged over the incident, and the man will be executed at the end of July.
The older girl was asked how she had survived and she says:- 'A man wearing shiny white clothes, with bleeding wounds in his hands, came every day to feed us. He woke up my mom so she could nurse my sister,' she said. She was interviewed on Egyptian National TV, by a veiled Muslim woman news anchor. She said on public TV, 'This was none other than Jesus Christ, because nobody else does things like this!'

Muslims believe Isa (Jesus Christ) would do this, but the wounds mean He really was crucified, and it's clear also that He is alive! But, it's also clear that the child could not make up a story like this, and there is no way these children could have survived without a true miracle.
Muslim leaders are going to have a hard time to figure out what to do with this, and the popularity of the Passion movie doesn't help! With Egypt at the centre of the media and education in the Middle East, you can be sure this story will spread. Christ is still controlling and turning the world. Please let this story be shared.
The Lord says, 'I will bless the person who puts his trust in me..
-Jeremiah 17

*n.d.lee’//

How is Nollie doin? Read what he wrote on his diary regarding his first job overseas

Youm, Osbu, Shahr, fih Sanah…
(A day, a week, a month, in a year..)

*The noon day sun turns the desert sprawl below us into a shimmer, with a tender breeze at this relaxing spot…
AB QAIQ, is where I am now.. December 30 2007, at exactly 10:32 pm with a connecting flight from Manila to Bahrain then Bahrain to Dammam Airport.

Ain Nahkel Ab Qaiq, Saudi Arabia is now my official address.. Two (2) years of designing pipelines in the kingdom's primary business "GAS and OIL" under the sub-contract of SAUDI ARAMCO, here comes the desert with the reddish-brown images of pipes and well-heads..
After night under the canopy of million stars (December 31st year 2007)… Faintly, I opened my eyes and witnessed my first day with a cool breezed splashed into a morning sun. The village is like a pan of pizza filled with different toppings and spices.. (Filipinos, Pakistani, Indian, Nepalese, and ofcourse Arab..)
At the kitchen, some of our "kababayan's" finished off a tagine bull shanks as "bulalo" and freshly cooked "chicken tinola" as my first meal. (hmmm.. bon appetite!)
Enjoying the place with the guitar, television with DVD's inside the room, basketball court, pool and billiard table… the place was good, infact I didn't noticed that the time is almost 7 o'clock pm.. and December 31, 2007, Sunday, my first (here in Saudi) and last day (of the year) is bout' to end and start for anotha'… so I get my mobile phone, make some beep with eyes enveloped by mountains… facing the sea, as tears… HAPPY NEW YEAR PHILIPPINES!!!
And as the real countdown continues.. 2008, the year of the rat is playin' with me in a new place, with a new things and new challenges… maybe to learn for some experience, and know the purpose after, or the lesson out of it… like what happen in a ravenous rat with a mighty sense of smell, shut in the mouse trap just for the tiny slice of cheese??? maybe he knew his lessons well.. and I also learned on that story.. so, what can I do now…? study and learn more.. explore and improve myself in this brand new world called hope!!!
Fingers fiddle with my mustache, (while ridin' a bus, for some medical check-up…) feelin' like sitting in a nook of paradise when eyewitness the land full of sand as desert, smoothly spread by the wind that blows continually into my ear saying.. if you genuinely want to learn about their culture, you must read its history written from the perspective of the people of that country; you must travel there independently and not on the pre-packaged tour; you must share their food and learn how to cook it; and you must, and this is an absolutely must, read what is on their minds, be quiet, then drive...
Drive… As the 68 kms. long way road trip continues, whilst listening to the Rod Stewart's "I was only joking.." finally we're here… and the first stop, HOFUF! a picture of Zapote in Las Piñas with so many streets, establishments, buildings and restaurants. There are lots of "kababayan's" working here on their own different field. I met pinay who worked as nurse, then some pinoy as doctors, some are working as auto-mechanic, engineers, architects, and some are in the restaurant as waiter, where "khabza" is available.. (kabhza' is a bunch of rice with a whole chicken in the middle, and it is serve as one order..) Burp!!! And right after that remarkable food trip, with the price of SR 8.00, (P80.00), and also free canned softdrink, "kalas"… (kalas' means finished or done)
and I'm on my way.., again! not only for another 68 kms. (goin' back to my house) but for this so-called life now… I started to crawl, then I ran, fast.. and there was a time I crashed down, bled.. so it's hurt.. but someone offered me a hand, I mean hands.. and now I'm back, walking.. into a new direction, I mean same.. but not that ordinary, can I say different? Oopz! I think no!! coz' it's all the same, same like what He wants to put in this photograph, learn how to move on, and be contented, it's a blessing and everyday is a blessing, so be blessed to be a blessing for others too.. glow, with so much peace and so much love..
til' next time folks, thanks for ya'll prayers… and I miss ya'll so much.. kudoz'…
