Unity with God


John 5: 17-30 reflection

"I can do nothing on my own authority; as I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me."ReflectionOur gospel today gives us the idea of how close Jesus is to His Father. Their bond is limitless. Their love is eternity. Jesus' life is not of himself alone, as He said. His life is of His father. therefore, we can make a clear conclusion for the reason why Jesus was so convinced and certain about his mission and his future. He carried all through his life the mission entrusted to Him by the father for he knew exactly that He will be taken cared of. For our faith as Catholics, we are guaranteed with the fact that once we are united with the Father, nothing can harm us. We might pass the roads of persecution and danger but we are assured that in the end, the Father's love will remain the victor.
This is our faith. this is our mission. As we believe in the power of the father's love for us, we are commissioned therefore to help others believe what we believe. People through our preaching and evangelization, hopefully may be transformed from being unbelievers.

LSIs and PUMs found refuge in OMI Retreat House

       The Shrine of Our Mother of Perpetual Help (SOMPH) retreat house in Binoligan, Kidapawan City, an OMI-run center has become a haven of refuge for several (Locally Stranded Individuals) LSIs and (Persons Under Monitoring) PUMs under the care of city government of Kidapawan.

Notre Dame of Cagayan: Evangelization Through Education

History The Notre Dame of Cagayan is located in a far distant island called Mapun, Tawi-Tawi. It is one of the Notre Dame schools founded by the Oblates of Mary Immaculate in the Sulu and Tawi-Tawi archipelago to respond to the literary education needs of the local people. Among the Notre Dame schools, NDC is one of the farthest if not the most challenging mission area of the oblates particularly with regards to transportation. The Notre Dame of Cagayan was founded by the OMI Fathers in 1958. Fr. Maurice A. Hemann, OMI was its first school principal and director. During that time, the Notre Dame of Cagayan (NDC) was the only high school in the island municipality of Mapun. That is why most of the professionals coming from Mapun are graduates of NDC.

Destiny

Sometimes THINGS happen almost repeatedly, one mistake today and tomorrow the same mistake you fall. And unbelievably they happen so fast but you can't track them anytime. Seriously! This is really sick! I always make the same mistake knowing that they are going the same route and end in the same feeling.  My heart once advised that the next time it happen it would be a different game, a different feeling of excitement but sadly I was wrong. I still missed the last spark to make the feeling into reality, making the ending open like a movie always creating another sequel to finally seize the whole picture and story. But, maybe there are things that just won’t work out for some people. Instead there are other things that are just meant for them. Well, I heard this from people, and they call it destiny. Crap! If this is what destiny for me, then holy crap! I just can’t figure out how to move next time. Why can’t I just make the perfect move now? I’m not comparing but some people can
