Salamat muli sa Diyos at nakapag-update muli ng website. Maraming mga balita ng panahong lumipas ang hindi namin naipaabot through this website dahil sa mabagal na update, ngunit sa mabuting biyaya ng Diyos, most of families and friends ay nagkakabalitaan sa ibat-ibang pamamaraan. Pasalamat namin sa Diyos ang walang hanggang biyaya ng pag-asa at pananampalataya ng walang hanggang buhay sa piling Niya. Tanggapin nawa niya ang mga pasalamat ng ating mga puso at kaluluwa.

Marami man ang mga mabuting balita, mayroon ding mga malulunggkot. Namatay si Tatang Onyong noong March 26, almost one month after he had an accident na nahulog siya sa pagbaba sa kanyang duyan at nagkaroon ng dislocated hip bone and fracture. 94 years old siya at kung hindi dahil sa aksidenteng iyon, malakas pa sana siya, ngunit ang pasalamat ng lahat ay hindi siya matagal na naghirap at na-relieve na siya from unbearable pain of the fractured hip. Pasalamat pa rin sa Diyos na nagkita sila ni Uncle Jun at Don bago siya namatay -- bumisita si Uncle Jun to get his family for a vacation sa Jeddah, at pagkakataon nga na noon na rin namatay si Tatang. Lubos ang aming pasasalamat sa mga nakiramay sa aming kalungkutan sa pag-alis ni Tatang. Hindi kami nakauwi, ganun din si Papa Ambo at Papa Amber.

Amen sa mga sumusunod na mga biyaya ng ating Panginoong Diyos sa mga nakaraang araw na ganun mang may kalungkutan, mayroon namang higit at lalong kasayahan:

• Dick celebrated birthday noong March. Ang pasalamat namin at panalangin sa Diyos ng marami pang mga taon sa kanyang buhay;
• Honeybun celebrated birthday nitong April. Ang pasalamat namin sa Diyos at panalangin na bigyan pa siya ng Diyos ng mahabang panahon na makasama namin siya sa paglilingkod sa Diyos;
• Nanay will celebrate her birthday too this month. Ang panalangin namin na humaba pa ang kanyang buhay, makatupad sa kalooban ng Diyos at manumbalik sa paglilingkod sa Kanya;
• For the opportunity na magkasama-sama kami ng mga kaibigan mula sa Montreal at Toronto -- sina Louie & Family and Wilma, at sa panahon na minabuti ng Panginoon na makapagpahayag kami ng Kanyang kabutihan at kaluwalhatian;
• For the opportunity na muli ay magkaroon kami ng communication ng kaibigan naming si Beth, she also celebrated birthday this month. We give thanks and pray for her long and fruitful life;
• For the very good opportunity na makapagpahayag ng kaluwalhatian ng Diyos sa aming mga kapatid at mga kamag-anak;
• Sa safe trip ni Don at ng kanyang pamilya sa pagbisita sa Pilipinas at pag-balik muli sa Calgary. Nagkaroon din siya ng opportunity na makita si Tatang Onyong bago namatay.

Join us in prayer to our Almighty God, in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ that:

• Our hearts and souls may focus to see and heed the will of our God, obedient to do His will, worthy to receive salvation and everlasting life;
• That our parents, brothers and sisters and their families be blessed with desire to know and serve the Lord early their lives;
• That He gives us understanding and thankful hearts in everything that we encounter and dwell with us in each moment of our life;
• That our God bless our people and that the people be blessed with leaders with good understanding and clean hearts to serve, not only the people, but the Lord God Himself;
• That the Lord God oversee the election in the Philippines and grant the Filipino people with a leadership and a government that is His;
• That He continuously bless our homes with His rest, peace, love and bounty together with our families and friends;
• That in turbulent times He grants increase of faith in Him that we don't fall aside and see His wisdom in everything;
• And may the desires of our souls be aligned with His will for us.

All these and many more, we pray in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Older photo namin ito nung baby pa si JM. Nasa California pa kami noon.

Mas older ito, hindi pa lumalabas si JM. Taken thanksgiving 1999 at Mendocino with Auntie Lina. For more photos of this visit, please click here Visit to Mendocino Album

OK this is much, much older. Inang Punyang (right) and Nanang Moding (left) magkapatid sila. Most of us children saw Nanang Moding but did not see Inang Punyang in person, but thanks be to God for technologies that old photos can be scanned and retrieved for sharing. Maganda ang Inang Punyang namin, 'no?

This is Tita Flor's photo when she was young. She was beautiful. We pray the Lord her soul to keep and through His grace abound her with Him in eternity. For more of photo collection in memory of Tita, please click here In Memory of Tita Flor

This photo was taken in November 2000, Ann's latest visit home. With Nanay and Tatay are Nene and her children, Dina and her children and Darwin & his wife. Wala pa si Jerobi noon. For more photos taken during that visit: Don't be shocked at what you'll see. Mahirap man kami at salat sa yaman, maliligaya naman. Kahit sa papag na walang kutson ang tulugan, masarap pa rin ang tulog. Please click here... 2000 Visit to San Leonardo
