Day 55, 2008: The Mission

Comment allez vous, mes amis? Here's an- update in my game of the fastest and the biggest reality show on earth:

Route Marker No. 1
Destination: SBC-Makati
Reward Challenge: Sunday School Teaching

The morning's great, the weather's fine, everything's okay! It's gonna be a great day! After having cornflakes for breakfast, I bathed and dressed. Today, I'll be teaching again, the children in Sunday School. It's really easy to fall into a routine in this kind of ministry. However, my motivation is seeing my students learning and abiding God's Word. That's why I call this a Reward Challenge. We were reviewing for next Sunday's mid-term exam. Yes! I made the Primary and Beginners class curriculum. 12 sundays, with a mid-term exam on the 6th week and a Final exam on the 12th. I was raised in a Sunday School, so I dhould know how a SS is ran. My students are one of naughtiest classes in the world. They wrecked the door of a cabinet in the room. I let them copy a set pointers for next week. The rest went well.

Route Marker No. 2
Task: JIVE Youth Program

Now's the fun part. We started the program at around 3pm. I sang along with Pastor Jeff. After two songs while operating the projector, I was called to go to the front to lead the Games and Icebreakers. I'm the youth center's Game Master so, I have to prepare games that provoke almost anything. From laughter to competition, you name them! Haha! Wholesome things only. Then, some dongs and, thee Word of God. There! SBC-Masinag's waiting for us.

Route Marker No. 3
Destination: SBC-Masinag, Masinag, Antipolo City, Rizal

Tribal Council: Missions Conference & Banquet 2008
Hall Pass: Reunion with Friends

At around 5:30 pm, we rode an L300 to SBC-Masinag. Pastor Jeff drove. When we arrived at SBC-Masinag at around 6:13, the banquet had started. We then, ate pansit, a Filipino noodle delicacy, barbecue and a piece of cake. Then, some songs, and some remarks from Pastor Lance and there. Done. I met Ate carmeli, Kuya Mon, Ashley, Jonah and the others. Quite a reunion! The last time I saw them was May of last year. Camp Recall. Then we headed back to Makati.

Reality Bites!: Vehicular Accident, 1 person dead.

As we are on our way home, we passed by a crowd of people. A traffic jam was in progress. Pastor Jeff asked a spectator, what happened. There was a collision between two motorcycles or an accident involving both of them, I suppose. A victim's body was covered with newspaper. Although he is wearing a helmet, he still died. I suppose he's a man. Death comes without warning. Death doesn't come with a warning. It doesn't choose people, young or old, rich or poor. This is REALITY! The mission of believers is to spread the gospel of God! That Jesus died on the cross to redeem us from our sins! That if we accept Him as our Savior believe that Jesus is the God's only provision for mankind and commit our lives to Him to be used in His plans, we will be saved!

I do hope that we believers fulfill our mission here on Earth. Remember what Rev. Mallory said. "This is just our dressing room..." Have a great day, Ciao!
