In the Name of the Father: Benefit Concert on June 5
by Cheryl Villareal on May 23rd, 2016
When we think about fitness, we often only think about our physical bodies. Today, I’m here to promote a different kind of fitness – SPIRITUAL and EXISTENTIAL fitness. Not long ago, I met a preacher by the name George Gabriel. When I first attended his talk, I was surprised at how young and good looking this preacher was. I came from a Catholic background so to me, preachers and priests were one of the same… of course I later on realized...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Light Thursdays: The “I” of the Storm
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 17th, 2012
All of us have experienced our own share of problems and difficulties. Several of us have felt like giving up more than once. Some of us might even be feeling it at this specific moment. A Blessing from Habagat Just last week, the Philippines suffered from strong rains and flooding brought about by Habagat. Several lives were affected and several houses were destroyed. Most people think of all the destruction and all that was lost...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Light Thursdays Lost and Found (Part 3): Loving the Lost
by Cheryl Villareal on Aug 13th, 2012
There are times we feel that we are well on our way going toward the right direction that people who aren’t as lucky as we are seem to be annoying. I won’t deny that there were some questions or comments people have said to me in the past that somehow annoyed me just because I felt as though the answers were too simple for them not to know. Though none of us want to be lost, if you are lost…it only means someone is looking for ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

Light Thursday’s Lost and Found (Part 2): The Parable of the Prodigal Son
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 28th, 2012
Are you familiar with the story of the Prodigal Son? This story has been shared to us several times since we were young, and I’m sure it’s been used as reference in many other scenarios. In week 2 of the LOST AND FOUND series, our preacher George Gabriel shared the story of the Prodigal Son. Though this story is so familiar to me already, I especially loved the way he shared it tonight. He tried tackling the story from a different point of vi...Read More » Tags Share Comments (2 )

Light Thursdays presents Lost and Found (part 1)
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 27th, 2012
As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, I started going to this “gathering” called Light Thursdays. It’s not really a worship/devotion thing, but I’d say it’s a place to find inspiration, strength and God through the words and stories of others. So last Thursday, we started part 1 of the series called “Lost and Found”. I’m pretty sure all of you have been physically lost at some point in your lives, ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (2 )

Light Thursdays: Good People, Good Music, Great Stories
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 14th, 2012
This post may be totally unrelated to my blog… but I thought to share it anyway. Last Thursday, I had one of the best experiences in a while. I laughed… I cried…but most importantly, I was moved. What was meant to be an ordinary Thursday evening turned out to be an evening of blessings, realizations and life lessons. Many of you might not know this as I rarely speak of it, but I am a firm believer o...Read More » Tags Share Comments (3 )
