Hope for the New Year

Friends,
We wake up to a new year full of trials and uncertainty.
But having had a Christmas break that was truly worthwhile and full of meaning, we are re-charged.
For your good deeds, I pray with confidence God will shower you with abundant blessings this coming year.
Giving is always a blessing.
In our native language, “Sa inyong pagka-matabangon, ang Ginoo na’y mag-igo.”
I am not praying for more disasters, but I hope you will continue extending a helping hand to others in distress.
In the meantime, as we face fresh challenges in the coming year, my wish for all of us is that spoken in the old Irish blessing…
May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sunshine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields and,
Until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
Happy New Year.
