Project 26 (4/26)



Singapore G12 Conference.
March 2010.


The Lord spoke these words to  me:

"Rebekah, you are my daughter, and I love you.
 I am preparing GREATER things for you 
that are beyond what your eyes can see 
and mind can conceive right now. I will use you 
MIGHTILY for My Name's glory. You'll 
travel to different places and share My Word
and My love towards my people. My purpose
for your life shall be accomplished. Do not be 
afraid for I am with You. I will never 
leave you nor forsake you."

That was one of the most memorable moments
of the conference, or should I say, in my
entire Christian life. In fact, that was the clearest voice
of the Lord I've ever heard especially when He's 
leading me into His plans and purpose.

I took it in my heart and never let it go.


Ezekiel 12:25a
"But I the Lord will speak what I will, 
and it shall be fulfilled without delay."

Now that it was almost 3 years ago since
I heard that "calling" in my life, I can truly say
that God is faithful. He has let me
experience what He has promised, though not
on its full completion yet, but I'm getting there.

One of the many "send off/s" the Lord allowed
me to have was the Iloilo trip.
 I was praying for this late last year that He
would allow me to do vision casting there
together with my disciple, Christine.
This was another "firsts" for me and Tine:
first time to travel together outside Mindanao,
first time to be in Iloilo and do the vision casting.
And guess what, our expenses came from our own
pockets too!--no solicitations whatsoever.
We personally "invested" on this trip since
we really wanted to plant a seed in Visayas,
specifially in Iloilo. No worries, God provided
everything (as in everything!) that we needed.
Woohoo! =)


#Snapshots


Flight 5J 348 brought us together in Iloilo city.


Inside the plane. Picture2x while the big bird was refueling.


Oh so heavenly up there o! =)  Parang it was smiling
back to us, approving of what is going to happen 
once we get there. Ayeeeeeh! 


We arrived safely and stayed in La Paz Pension House.


Our first time to meet Adrian and Thirdy inside 
Central Philippine University. 
They're 2 of the young people in 
Dungon Community Church where we did 
the vision casting. By the way, that flagpole behind 
them is the (very) center of the Philippines as 
confirmed by the latitude and longitudinal line.


Then we met also DCC's core leaders and did
the first part of the vision casting inside CPU.

We did more bonding together! =)



Vision casting in DCC sanctuary.

God made this trip very successful! One of a kind.
Yeah, Visayas is being stirred up, 
they're more than ready and willing to 
receive the fire from the Lord!

#PurposefulTrip

Iloilo city has been my sister's home for 
5 long years when she studied medicine.
And when she knew that I have a scheduled
trip there, she asked me to go to 
West Visayas State University and get a copy 
of her transcript of records. I definitely said YES
since I haven't seen her school, not even when
she graduated in MedSchool and my whole family 
went there except me (because I was
first year college then and I have to take up
my summer class in SPC).


The WVSU Centennial Clock. It's a 110 year-old 
vintage clock. Nice noh? =)



WVSU's College of Medicine.


And finally, my sister's TOR. I didn't know
she had an average of 84% in NMAT
(Nat'l Medical Admission Test).
I'm so proud of her!


#OtherStuff



We visited some of the old churches in the city, Iloilo is such
a vintage place---love it!
Then we hit the famous Ted's restaurant, home
of the original La Paz Batchoy. Saraaaaap!



Since pasalubong was part of the list, we went
also to Biscocho Haus, bought butterscotch, piyaya,
and other delicacies made in Iloilo.
Uy, ang butterscotch? THE BEST! =)


#HomeBound

And on the fourth day of stay, we had to say goodbye.
Thank you Iloilo city for the opportunity to "serve you",
I always remember you in my prayers.
Thank you Flight 5J 347 for the safe flight going back home.
And above all, thank You Lord for arranging everything
and letting me see Your goodness in the land of the living!



Praying for more send-off/s,
