I met with some friends for what felt to me was a last lunch.
I was eager to give gifts, more than to receive them. Through their generosity, we were also able to raise funds that will allow 15 very poor families in Metro Manila to have noche buena this Christmas. I was so happy to bring their donation to church, along with my fellowship action group's donation for two families.

It has been quite some time since I have last (felt that I have) received a message from the Our Lady of Guadalupe. In fact, there was a time this year when I just could not connect with her even though I was badly in need of help... I was filled with so much anger and sin in those times. Today is rare—I felt that she is happy and pleased.
