31. 2016 So Far

It's been awhile since I wrote anything. Here's a quick update!

I've been teaching Sunday School with one kid at church which is pretty interesting. Using my daycare experience with the bible is really fun. We don't have many families to minister to in our church. If you guys would like to pray for families that would be great!

I've met 2 of my 2016 goals which is a good start.
1. Cafe Night Photography Exhibition

This past month I had a gallery opening at PIECES. Cafe Night was a pretty fun intense day. For a few months I took photos of the local cafes in Los Angeles. Every cafe had their own vibe and energy. After taking all the photos I learned how to print, matte, frame and install for the gallery. I prepared an "Open Mic for the event. I had my artist friends perform their original work. There was a lot of love and I couldn't be more satisfied. Praise God for that :)

2. Discipleship

I'm finally discipling someone. My pastor has been encouraging our church to do it. He's trying to equip everyone to teaching everyone so that whoever comes to our church we know how serve and teach others. Him we proclaim warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ. Colossians 1:28  I mean other than the fact that it's required from us as a follower. I gotta tell you it was a little nerve wrecking at first but then something my pastor told me "this is to glorify God and not yourself or the other person." "commit this to prayer"

Next 2 of my 2016 goals
3. plan trip to the Philippines
It's actually in the works right now. I'm planning my trip to the Philippines in the summer. Why am I going? Well I think it's about time to have a vacation haha. Main reason why I'm going is to meet my biological father for the first time. Quick update on that, I recently found out that I had a different father and so it took me awhile to accept and move forward from that. God's grace he's given me the strength to move forward and talk to my biological father and half sister from the Philippines. Lord willing I will be gone for 2 months and will be back safe. I'll keep you all updated with that!

4. Driver's license
It'e been a long time coming haha

Oh there's this guy...
