Last Sunday, we celebrated the 40th anniversary of our prayer community, Ang Ligaya ng Panginoon (The Joy of the Lord). For our celebration, we all came in "Filipiniana" outfits and on my desk today for What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday are some of the accessories I wore or considered to wear...
"The Tboli are one of the indigenous peoples of South Cotabato in Southern Mindanao" -Wikipedia. The blouse is filled with wonderful applique and embroidery...
See the 40th anniversary logo my daughter designed? And the banner that I designed...
"Starting out with 41 men and women in July 1975, the Ligaya now counts some 1,900 members (including children of all ages) from diverse socio-economic backgrounds bound by the common desire to live out the Christian life to the fullest and to serve the Church as a body." - LNP website.
And so we celebrate God's goodness and faithfulness to us through all these years. When we offer him whatever little we have, like the little boy and his 5 loaves and 2 fishes, our mustard seed faith can grow and become the largest of all garden plants...
Be blessed, dear blog friends!
