* Missions: Day 1

The night before, I couldn't sleep. I was too excited to sleep.

We passed by Mcdo to buy breakfast. My momma drove me to Everest. We got there around 8am. I went inside to put my stuff down. Then went up to the chapel where I saw the other girls. I went to confession and then we heard mass.

I sat down beside Mitchelle the whole bus ride. and then at 12:20pm.. TOUCHDOWN LIPA! St. Therese of The Child Jesus is our first stop. Mass. Donkey4Christ! The mass ended around 1:30pm and then we ate lunch after that. After eating lunch,


Okay, wait I'm too tired. I'll continue/edit this some other time. Lolzzzzzzzzzzzz. Sorreeeeeeeeeeh


ZZzzZzZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

* Nocturnal

'Kay so it's almost three but I'm awake. I was playing tetris and I finished two full refills. I won just thrice.. I think. Anyway, I felt like posting something. I'm listening to Call Me Maybe right now. Even though the lyrics don't make sense to me.. Wait, the song just ended. The song playing now is A Thousand Years. Ohh.. This song makes me miss so much things. I have no idea but I really feel lonely every time I hear this song..

I miss missions. I want to post a detailed blog post about the things we did per day. Some other time.. When it's not too late. There's something about missions that makes me want to come back every year. I made a promise to myself last year to make it a point to save every Holy Weeks for missions. It was my second time this year to do missions and I can say that.. It's so hard to stay the same every after missions.

Last year, I went to missions because it sounded fun. I think it said "adventure" on the flyer. The night before, I was planning on backing out because I thought that I might be a fail missionary, that I might not know what to say, nor know what to do. But, it turned out just fine.. Well, better than fine. Our catechism had five kids at most during the week.. Zero kids on the day before the last day of catechism. But then, Mama Mary helped us. Almost 50 kids on the last day. When I got home from my first missions, I can say that I've become a more optimistic person, saw things in the lighter perspective.

I was super excited for Holy Week. Especially when I found out that my 18th birthday is on an Easter Sunday.

Okay, you know what? I'm gonna post the day-to-day detailed blog posts now. Nevermind tetris, I can't win, anyway.

* Holy Week Missions 2012

Holy Week is my favorite part of the year. Not because I can go out on a vacation with my family or my friends but because it's the time for Missions!

Ahhhh!!

* MY Weekend!

Mission Youth is an apostolate of the Regnum Christi Movement that works with bishops and pastors to evangelize by engaging and sending out youth to bear witness to Christ.

The experience of the mission calls young people to grow in their personal relationship with Jesus Christ, encountering his love and having a desire to bring that love to others. Encountering Christ allows the missionaries to bring Christ to others, sharing his love and hope with all they come into contact with. 

I'm really excited for the Mission Youth Camp this upcoming weekend! It's the first ever Mission Youth Camp in Zobel (and the Philippines) and we've been planning this for a while now.

Expectations.. Well, based on the schedule, I'm pretty sure that if all is executed properly and if all of us will participate actively, then for sure it will be a blast! :D

I am very proud to say that I'm part of the team that planned this out. If successful, they might use the schedule we made for future Mission Youth camps! Hihi.

I hope to be one of the people who will help form future Missionaries of Christ that will be brave enough to go out and spread His promise!

THY KINGDOM COME!
