It’s the time of the year that we are reminded to be thankful for God’s “never-changing” goodness and love for all of us. Notice I said “never-changing”, because as time passes, people and situation changes, places and time changes but our God–never.
It’s been almost 3 months since we came to the Philippines and time [...]
We’re finally back on the wide roads of the midwest. It was August 26 when our plane arrived at the O’Hare International Airport in Chicago. Even our time in the Philippines was hectic, we were able to rest while we were at Incheon airport where we stayed for 17 hours at the airport’s public lounge. [...]
I hope you all had a nice 4th of July weekend last week with cool fireworks show. We almost missed a fireworks show but, thanks to our friend’s invitation, we were able to see one fireworks display exactly on the 4th of July. I get to practice my shutter speed [...]
We just came back from a weekend trip to Washington DC. It was a smooth trip even with the kids. Yes, we brought the kids with us this time.
To give you a background. Tim & I went to DC last year to renew my passport. I have to make a “personal” appearance to renew [...]
We apologize for not being able to post some updates lately. I’ve been working with some web design projects this past month that is why I wasn’t able to blog.

“Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all [...]
Our yesterday’s devotion reminds us where we put our dependence. I remember telling Tim last week that as we seek God to serve Him together, we will continue to learn His ways. It’s funny how I said that being a “work in progress” doesn’t mean our faith growth goes smoothly all the time. Sure, there [...]
We haven’t met the missionaries Dan & Tori in Boracay but it seemed like we’ve known each other already for a long time. Somehow, in this web technology, God can use it for His glory and build relationship. I’m not saying that you just “stay at home and don’t go anywhere or talk to someone [...]
We’re blessed to have an opportunity to continue to pray and look forward to meet the people in Boracay. We are also blessed and encouraged as we hear news from the church & ministry of On The Rock Ministries there headed by Dan & Tori Beaver.
On The Rock Ministries together with the [...]
