Anointed – the official name of our Youth Ministry ; ASWCC Youth
Prayer Walk – an event / activity wherein a group of people will roam around a certain place observing and praying with a mission of conquering that place and winning the lost souls for the Lord. (similar to what happened to the fall of the Jericho Wall)                   

Our theme:

37

Our Ultimate Goal: to do what God has commissioned all Christians to do.

My other personal goal: to let this be a training ground for the youth in our church …so that ma-break namin ung mga walls in our hearts that hinder us to to go out, take part of the God’s commssion, to shout our faith and be proud of Him who is at work within us.

We have already planned this outdoor mission before, adpating what I have experienced with the YWAM people in Malate.. We had it scheduled last Sunday, but it seems that the enemy is really up, working very hard to not allow this mission happen. I found out from Chelle, Sunday morning, that mukha daw di makakasama ung majority of our youth, at mukhang apat lang kaming sure. So I thought kung ipagpaliban na lang kaya namin since the place we were suppose to ‘Jericho’ is unknown to us and onti lang kami at yung mga youth pa na familiar sa place ang di makakasama. But God impressed something in me “In my mission, I am sending you to a place where you are a total stranger.” Then I was sure, deep in my heart that we will continue this no matter how unfamiliar we are to the place or how many we are. God reminded me to hold on to His power, not on our weakness; that this mission is not about us, it’s about Him – what He can show and do!

Then, lo and behold nakumpleto pa rin kami. We all went to Camachile (guessed the spelling’s right). We were divided into pairs and each pair carried out the mission to pray and observe the place. after 15 minutes nagkikita ulit kami, and Chelle told us that meron daw silang nakausap that’s willing to accomodate us and hear God’s message for them. Instant cell group..hehe. And so there, the rest is a mighty history written and directed by God. I know that di pa tapos si Lord sa place na yun and He also doesn’t want us stop until we have totally conquered the place for Him. He has yet a lot of great things to demonstrate! All the glory and honor to God! Amen!

National Youth Conference 2008
October 31, 2008
at the JCSGO Seed Dome
15th Ave. Cubao Q.C

a whole day of praise and worship and listening to God’s Word. The theme of the event was:
“You are amazing”
Becoming An Amazing Youth through the Power of an Amazing God

It was truly a heavenly privilege to be there, together with many young people from all parts of the Philippines lifting their hearts to God. We arrived as early as 6:30, seemed we were super excited because the event was scheduled to start at 9 am..hehe.. di pa nga ata naseset-up ung sound system non!..haha. Pero dapat naman talagang di ka nagpapahuli sa mga gawain for the Lord. Naks!

And then 9:00 am came and passed! the program started with a Praise and Worship led by Pastor Rommel Guevarra. The composer of the famous “Mahal na Mahal kita Panginoon” Song. Amazing worship time!..una pa lang, nakakapuspos na..ehehe..lalo na ung part na kinanta ung “Napakabuti mo” (hope i got the title right). The message of that song is forever true at nakakaiyak.

There were three main speakers of the event. hope i could blog about these speaker’s messages later on. They were:

  • Pastor Roni Astrologo from (Philippine Council of Evangelical Churches NYC)
  • Pastor Eric Maliwat (702 DZAS) – it was nice to see him again after 4 years, he was our Commencement Speaker during our Graduation Ceremony nung highschool.
  • and Pastor Jordan Escusa (Against the Flow NU 107 and Perfect Rhythm on 702 DZAS). once a drug addict but now a pusher for God’s Word. He is a self-confessed rocker for Jesus. check out his multiply site and see. thejesusrocker.multiply.com He is an alumni of TUMCS (my highschool alma matter too), a true pride of Taytay, indeed!

The day ended with an almost non-stop praise and worship led by Pastor Roman Guevarra, who’s also the host of the event. Overall it was an overwhelming, stressfree day of worshipping and drowning into God’s presence. Sbi nga ni Pstr. Roman, “it wasn’t accident why we were there”, it was God’s plan. Truly Amazing!

Sa uulitin!
