I used to attend meetings with my friends from the praesidium and pray with them every Sunday. I was the temporary secretary and treasurer of Mary Cause of Joy. Then Covid struck. We weren't allowed to have meetings since everything shut down so suddenly. Online, we weren't able to construct meetings because the kids that we handle don't have wifi and are having a hard time connecting online. I had attended the Junior Curia last time but that was the only time I really attended since Covid. This time I will make a goal to won't forget to attend the Curia and reconnect with Mary, Jesus, and God. ]]> 2021-10-22 06:55:37 UTC https://padlet.com/sophieyane05/96bnl0zf546j344n/wish/1835648382 sophieyane05 https://padlet.com/sophieyane05/96bnl0zf546j344n/wish/1835676471 It is that through this theater organization started my strong faith. As I started to dance for the church and God, I started to believe that Jesus is with me. My Director had strong faith and thought us, the members, on how we would offer ourselves to the Lord. She was the source of our faith. Yet again Covid struck but as they say, "The show must go on". We performed in "Daan ng Dalamhati 2021".  But my Director suddenly caught the virus since some of the scenes were shot outside. I lost my Director/Teacher recently.  One of the last things she said to us before disappearing into the ends of the earth is

 "Magmahal ng Lubos, Magbigay ng taos, Maglingkod ng hindi kapos, Ibigay ang sarili hanggang ang lakas ay maubos, Ang Diyos na ang bahala pagkatapos". 

I personally as her student believed that her faith was strong. She made me join Legion of Mary which I didn't regret. She made me believe and have faith in Jesus. As a child or when I was young, I was still confused to what my faith is. And yet she made me believe that having faith in God is one of the best things I could ever asked for.]]> 2021-10-22 07:15:29 UTC https://padlet.com/sophieyane05/96bnl0zf546j344n/wish/1835676471 sophieyane05 https://padlet.com/sophieyane05/96bnl0zf546j344n/wish/1835685072 It came to the point in my life that everything was dark. I was completely drowned and suffocated. I stopped believing in Jesus. I started doubting myself. I started questioning why. Why am I alive?, what was my worth?. I started to grow anxiety and became stressed with myself. I asked for help from my other friends. They helped but that was not enough. But yet a stranger, who is now my friend, went into my DM's said: "Maybe, this is what God wanted to happen. Maybe this is the way the Lord is saying that you should go back to him. Go back home. And with that, I realized how stupid it was to doubt him. ]]> 2021-10-22 07:21:17 UTC https://padlet.com/sophieyane05/96bnl0zf546j344n/wish/1835685072 sophieyane05 https://padlet.com/sophieyane05/96bnl0zf546j344n/wish/1835690831 The reason why I'm flexing these people and my experiences with them is because they made my friendship with God more meaningful and powerful. They thought me what faith was and how to believe in him. I'm thankful for them and hopefully, I could see them again soon. ]]> 2021-10-22 07:24:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sophieyane05/96bnl0zf546j344n/wish/1835690831 sophieyane05 https://padlet.com/sophieyane05/96bnl0zf546j344n/wish/1835703345 Miss Espie was one of my teachers that guided me through my first communion. She also was one of the people who started my faith. She would teach us values and the meaning of Faith. She died 3 years ago. She was the starting point of my faith and I'll never forget her actions before she passed away. I would always go back to the time where she first assigned me to do the first reading every first Friday mass. I remember my mistake when I accidentally made the sign of the cross after reading the first reading. From there, I was assigned every now and then to read during masses. Sometimes, she would call me up to the stage and let me lead the rosary with other grade levels. And now everytime, I visit her grave, I never forget to bring a pack of skyflakes since it was her favorite and because she was one of the starting points of my faith.]]> 2021-10-22 07:32:50 UTC https://padlet.com/sophieyane05/96bnl0zf546j344n/wish/1835703345
