Results: Garage Sale For Summer Con

I'm not too keen on the details regarding the garage sale yesterday, since I wasn't there. But I heard that they were able to make p30,000. That's a pretty good amount, and only happened through God's grace. The money raised will be used to subsidize the summer con amount for those who can't really afford the full p8000. I think priority will be given to students.

Anyway, up next is tomorrow (this Sunday). There will be a food booth that will sell, uhm...Shabu shabu., I think.hehe... Anyway, it's gonna be delicious, so don't forget to bring your wallets. Here's your chance to help out once again. Who said you can't help others by eating? God bless all of you.

Garage Sale For Summer Con

"First of all, sorry folks for not being able to blog this past couple of weeks. I've been having a dry spell lately. Anyway, I'm back, and I'm no longer dry. Thank God."

In the spirit of raising money for our Family Conference in Ilocos, we will be having a Garage Sale this Friday (Feb 27, 2009). It will be a whole day event starting @ 9am in our church (Grace Christian Church). If you have anything worth selling that you probably don't need, here's your chance to get rid of it. You will be helping our church also. It's killing two birds with one stone. Just just pass by the church any reasonable time tomorrow to drop your stuff.

And... if you're wondering whether our church has a garage or not... you are not alone, I'm still wondering about it myself. Anyway, it will probably in the fellowship hall or just the open area where they park all the vans. So drop by this Friday and check out the all the stuff that's for sale.

Or if you have nothing to do... you can also volunteer to help out, just text Glenn 09228425075. (And don't forget to state who you are.)

2009 DVBS - Son Rock


GCC's 2009 Daily Vacation Bible School will be entitled Son Rock. The theme concentrates on how our kids can build their lives upon Jesus Christ, the ROCK. It will be held on April 21 to 27. Like each year, there will be something special planned for the kids. There would be a limit of 90 slots for kids going to Kinder 2 to Grade 6/HS. There would be exceptions for 3 years old and below, but only for a limited 20. For p700 each, this is a bargain. So register now, until April 11, while slots last. 

You may register at the church office, or inquire at the DVBS booth every Sunday (there should be one soon). You can also call 3641415 / 3641977 for more inquiries. You may also visit Gospel Light's official Son Rock website for more details on the materials and lessons.

Let us help our kids be wise by building their lives on Jesus. Just like the song... 
The Wise man builds his house upon the Rock!!!

Supersize Me

Summer is the time to breakaway from school and all the responsibilities that are tangled up with it. It's the one time in the year where you can glaze your eyes on the television set or the computer without being yelled at for ignoring your homework. But we still get badgered about not spending our time as wisely. So this year, Grace Christian Church is sponsoring a Summer Youth Camp charged with activities, messages, and a week with your friends!

Last year, Grace's Summer Camp (Unmasked!) was held at the Asian Theological Seminary in Baguio. The theme revolved around our personal identity under who we are in God. A video message was played zeroing on the spiritual warfare that is continually going on around us. Personally, these messages helped me get a better grasp of who I am and the world that revolves around me. I needn't be ashamed of who I am in Christ, nor should I fear the things of this world. With this in mind, I look forward to the things I'll learn this coming summer at the Youth Camp.

The Grace Summer Youth Camp will be held at the Graceland Estates and Country Club in Tayabas, Quezon, during May 13-16. Early registration is advised, starting at P2,800 till Feb. 28; P3,300 from March 1 to May 3. There are limited slots, so apply now!
