Enjoying the Gift of T-Shirts
The love of God! This time we’re fixing the ceiling of the church. Hopefully, we’ll finish this for 7 days, so that we could start the kids building. Isomel is at Calbayog already. He may have need amount too for house rent there. I may give Icy (sister) P1000 pesos for food as volunteer to help Isomel. Lorenzo is still with EBI for some schedule of film showing (Castilla first this week).
Ptr Randy said that many enrollees from Lavesarez would be coming to EBI.
I attach some pictures of our young people here that received shirts (fromSis Chris’) during Saturday’s Youth Practice and Gathering. I give shirts too to PAMI churches. We appreciate much Sis Chris and others for the T-shirts.

T-Shirts, Meals, and New Students
The richest grace of God in Christ Jesus! Praise God, your box arrived too in good condition. T-shirts from Sis Chris are very nice. That would be very timely for youth summer activities. As of now, we have youth workshops for music and discipleship every Saturday. That is teaching how to play church instruments and how to lead songs. James and Kevin are the facilitators. Ofel is sorting out items for churches: T-shirts, FMSC meals, some books and others. We’ll give them, this May 28th during the giving of allowances. Yeah, two boxes of FMSC meals from Bro Jim Wenzel too. Probably, we could initially give each churches 20 bags of fmsc.

New Kids Ministry in Sirangan (a poor area near Sorsogon market)
The grace of God in Christ Jesus!
Last April 02, 2010 (Good Friday), Sis Marietta Calolot (former Marietta Rosin; EBI batch 1 *) visited us at EBI and shared us about opening a ministry/missionwork.
Relatives of her husband (Raffy) which happened to be christians in Metro Manila were looking for christian workers to start mission at their place in Sirangan, Sorsogon City. Sis Carol Escalora (former Carol Calolot) formerly lived at Sirangan (Barangay Sirangan is the market site of the Sorsogon City – with about 20 thousand or more people, considered one of the depressed barangays with people living in slum or shanty houses. Year 1987, this barangay was devasted by flashflood that 1000 people mostly children died).

State of the Union
Just as President Obama gave a State of the Union address last week, I thought I should send a PAMI update that summarizes some highlights from 2009 as well as some prospects for 2010. Attached are the following:
* Four Christmas pictures, including one of EBI receiving an award for 1st-runner-up in a Province-wide Christmas cantata contest held at Aemelianum College. To be invited and to place well brings nice recognition of EBI in the eyes of the community. (see below)
