Kindness Is...


...how a Christlike person treat others.



Be extra kind to everyone.... what goes around comes around.


But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. - Gal 5:22-23

Beautiful Batanes Island


The Batanes island group is the smallest province in the Philippines in terms of population and land area.

The wind swept islands of Batanes are beautiful and enchanting and they are like no other in the Philippines. Since Batanes is separated from the country by miles of rough waters, the Ivatans (the name of the people of Batanes) have developed a different culture. Ivatans are honest, gentle and polite but brave and robust. They are proud of their their heritage and their land.

The landscape of Batanes is also distinct from other Philippine provinces - steep cliffs, rolling hills, deep canyons and boulder-lined shores . But the most noticeable of all features of Batanes is the architecture of the houses - stone walled and thick thatched roofs to withstand the battering of typhoons.

Celebrating Resurrection


The egg is seen as symbolic of the grave and life renewed or resurrected by breaking out of it.


THE TOMB IS EMPTY
OUR HEARTS ARE FULL

CELEBRATING JESUS CHRIST'S RESURRECTION WITH YOU!


He is not here; He is risen, just as He said. - Mathew 28:6

LENT




Let this LENT remind us that our life and material possessions are just LENT to us.
We are all passersby... Pilgrims on the road.
We bring nothing when we die, but leave behind the LOVE we have shared,
the HOPE we have given,
the KINDNESS we have extended
and the GOODNESS we have done.

Have a Blessed Holy Week!
