Dear Ada,
I am sorry about you and your family's ordeal during Typhoon Ondoy.
I am glad that you and your family are safe now.
We shared your sister Nona and your family's feelings when my husband's family were affected by the Typhoon in Iloilo last year. It took us 5 days to be able to communicate with them and knew how they have survived.
Praise God for amidst the storm, you and your family continue to give thanks to Him.
" So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it. - Hebrews 4:16.
God bless!
Jane

Thankfully you are safe and I am releived that you and your family are safe now.
God bless,

Marriage vows
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wedding_vows
In a Christian or Christian-influenced civil ceremony, after the vows have been spoken, the celebrant traditionally instructs the couple to kiss.
Marriage vows are promises a couple makes to each other during a wedding ceremony.
Civil ceremonies often allow couple's to choose their own marriage vows, although many civil marriage vows are adapted from the traditional Catholic wedding vow "To have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness or in health, to love and to cherish 'till death do us part."
Vows can also be written by the couple, or poetry, lyrics or vows from a mixture of religious traditions used. However couples marrying in a house of worship or within a religious tradition are often constrained to use the standard vows of that tradition's ceremony.

GETTING MARRIED ON THE 7TH OR THE 8TH???
http://abcnews.go.com/US/story?id=3348384&page=1&CMP=OTC-RSSFeeds0312
Actually my sister Malou's favorite number is number 8 (kasi birthday niya yon march 08 - and sobrang lucky siya pag may number 8 most specially sa mga tickets for raffle....he!he!he! nananalo siya promise.) while my favorite number naman is number 7. Kaya mula ngayon number 8 na din ang favorite ko. Number 7 second place nalang...hi hi hi!
8/8/08: Don't Miss Out on the Next Big Date
Oct 4 20078/8/08 has a nice ring to it, don't you think? After the frenzy created this year on 7-7-07, a popular wedding date considered lucky by many, wedding vendors and engaged couples are looking out for the next extra-popular date. August 8, 2008 falls on a Friday, so it likely won't be quite as popular as the 7/7/07, which was a Saturday. However, since 8 is an extremely lucky number in Chinese culture, watch for huge numbers of Chinese weddings on this day.

Proper wording for wedding invitations
Sunday, January 27, 2008
What is a Misalette???
A misalette is the booklet of your entire ceremony proceedings, may it be a christian wedding or a catholic wedding. Why this is important???
1. The priest must have a copy of your misalette so he can be guided throughout the entire wedding ceremony about the readings, vows, etc.....making it personalized will also give your soleminizing officer or your priest no reason to forget your names (names of the bride and groom)...
2. Your lector or commentator must have a copy of your misalette so he/she can lead the congregation on what to do next; sit down, stand up, kneel, etc...
3. Your readers must have it so she/he can practice the readings beforehand and be able to read it properly during the mass or the ceremony..
4. Your coordinator must have a copy so he/she can be guided properly on the entire proceedings and be able to guide those who are involved; must know when to help the bearers go up the altar for the wedding rings, prepare the veil, cord, candles, offerors, etc..
5. Your sponsors and your entourage must have copies of the misalette so they can follow and understand what is happening..
6. Your guests may have copies if you want them to be guided as well...
7 and most important the couple...it's your wedding! Without it, you wouldn't know what to do and what to say...if you have your own vows, this is where you can have it included so the rest of your guests can also understand it and feel it...
..so what is a misalette...it's an important element of your wedding..DO NOT FORGET IT!!!
