Bridge that connects DREAMS to REALITY
12 People gathered for fellowship last Monday, January 21. Small number yet we are so glad to have 3 first time guests:
Eds (Teleperformance- Edsa Central), Joy (invited by Rajsh) and Monica (IBM-Libis).
Joy and Monica were the early birds of the day, praise God for that. And even though most people who missed out the fellowship due to schedule conflict, we praise God for bringing again Pastor George Payocong in sharing to us lesson in Bridging dreams to reality from the book of Nehemiah 2.
As per Next week we will have our series break-- breakfast in R&J Bulalohan in Mandaluyong City. Please contact Rajsh for details. See you and God bless!

Knowing God, my Ultimate Goal
Indeed another wonderful morning spent with God's people having fellowship and enjoying our devotion lead by Teacher Carol Felipe. The passage taken from John 9:1-10, the story of the blind man whom Jesus healed.
20 people came in last Monday. And we praise God for seeing familiar faces who've been gone for quite some time. A warm WELCOME to Marie Cura of JP Morgan Chase Bank, our first time guest. And a big HAND to Vin and Kathleen for being the early bird of the day.
Next week we will have Pastor George Payocong as our speaker. Hope to see you all there!
