Happy new year everyone!<br />

Happy New You!<br />

I pray and claim that 2019 will<br />

be our year <strong>of</strong> breakthrough and<br />

victory. A year <strong>of</strong> stepping out <strong>of</strong><br />

fear and accomplishing our dreams.<br />

A year <strong>of</strong> peace and prosperity. A<br />

year <strong>of</strong> amazing service and relentless<br />

love.<br />

I am excited as 2019 is <strong>the</strong> year<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> youth! I declare that this<br />

will be our year! Tapos na ang<br />

panahon ng hearbreak, this will be<br />

a year that we will be made whole<br />

through <strong>the</strong> radical and reckless love<br />

<strong>of</strong> GOd. Tapos na ang panahon na<br />

iniisip mo na ikaw ay limited, it’s<br />

time to proclaim that we are God’s<br />

Beloved, we are privileged to be<br />

His mighty servant, and that we<br />

are empowered to be His powerful<br />

champion!<br />

Iwan mo na ang dapat mong iwan<br />

sa 2018, I declare a NEW YOU this<br />

2019. A better, greater, bolder,<br />

stronger, wiser and a good lookinger<br />

(pinilit ko lang para lahat may er)<br />

you! Get ready for your amazing<br />

and wonderful new year.<br />

Be mightily blessed,<br />

A look back in our year 2018<br />

Fullness: How to Begin with <strong>the</strong> And in Mind<br />

Fullness <strong>of</strong> life happens when we acknowledge<br />

that blessings come in <strong>the</strong> “in-betweens”<br />

because when Jesus died for us, He already<br />

tore <strong>the</strong> veil and made a way.<br />

Loud: Listening to <strong>the</strong> Voices <strong>of</strong> Today<br />

Regardless <strong>of</strong> our generation, we have to<br />

walk beside each o<strong>the</strong>r, express <strong>the</strong> love <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> Lord, and expand and spread this love to<br />

everybody through commitment and service.<br />

Unleashed: Breaking Free From <strong>the</strong> Shackles <strong>of</strong><br />

Unforgiveness<br />

We are already free in God. He easily forgives<br />

us when we repent, so we should also forgive<br />

ourselves and our neighbor. Doing so will give<br />

us peace and set us free.<br />

OFW: Overcoming Family Worries<br />

God is always with us, so we are never alone.<br />

He will help us with our plans and dreams for<br />

our family, and He will restore what is broken<br />

and turn things into good.<br />

Superpower: The Fire to Live A Great Life<br />

The Holy Spirit is our friend, our helper,<br />

comforter and prayer partner. Having <strong>the</strong><br />

gifts <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Holy Spirit is necessary, but<br />

<strong>the</strong>y don’t matter if we don’t produce <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

fruits. We are nothing without love.<br />

Workaholyc: Taking Charge <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Daily Grind<br />

We learned that that OT is not life and God<br />

is our boss! Our work and worship don’t have<br />

in-betweens, and that taking charge <strong>of</strong> our<br />

daily grind is easier with God in <strong>the</strong> center.


News Feed: How to Really Connect<br />

When we connect with people, we have to be<br />

genuine by removing <strong>the</strong> unnecessary filters<br />

and by setting aside envy. We always need to<br />

choose God’s voice, so we may connect well,<br />

not only with God, but also with people.<br />

Breaking News: Your Story According To…<br />

4 evangelists wrote <strong>the</strong> journey <strong>of</strong> Jesus<br />

here on earth, and through <strong>the</strong>se gospels, we<br />

understood that God has bigger plans, He is<br />

doing something new, He is chasing us, and<br />

<strong>the</strong>se are all because He is so into us.<br />

Bleedership: How Leadership is Sacrifice<br />

A great leader is just like Jesus. Regardless<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> position, he or she is a good influence.<br />

However, to be one, we need to lose<br />

something, acknowledge our struggles, connect<br />

with people, and understand that we live in a<br />

place bigger than ourselves.<br />

I Believe: Created. Redeemed. Empowered.<br />

We believe in one God in three personas.<br />

We believe in our Fa<strong>the</strong>r in heaven, who will<br />

always love us even if we continually sin. He<br />

sent His only son Jesus, who redeemed us,<br />

and washed away our sins. He wants to be<br />

our best friend. Jesus left His Holy Spirit to<br />

empower us in experiencing <strong>the</strong> fullness <strong>of</strong> life<br />

<strong>the</strong> Lord wants us to have<br />

G: Winning <strong>the</strong> Game <strong>of</strong> Money<br />

In winning <strong>the</strong> game <strong>of</strong> money <strong>the</strong> Jesus way,<br />

we have to recognize our God-given gifts and<br />

reach our dreams by getting our goals through<br />

grit. Our purpose should not be in vain, but<br />

ra<strong>the</strong>r for God’s Kingdom here on earth.


#ThankYouJesusMoments for 2018!<br />

Thank You, Jesus sa blessing na binigay Mo<br />

sa’kin noong 2018, which is, ‘yung lagi kong<br />

dasal sayo: nakapag-apprenticeship ako... Thank<br />

you rin sa The Feast SM Manila dahil andiyan<br />

kayo lagi sa mga oras na down ako. –Mark<br />

Jairo Paderogao<br />

This 2018, naging part ako ng JGC Philippines<br />

(MyTargetCompany) as a Mechanical Engineer.<br />

And finally, I became a part <strong>of</strong> spiritual<br />

community through The Feast SM Manila.<br />

Grabe ang journey <strong>of</strong> failure, disappointment at<br />

confusion before I realized that those things are<br />

pathways for more blessings to come this year!<br />

Praise God! -Neilryan Nunez<br />

Thank You, Jesus dahil kumpleto kaming nagcelebrate<br />

ng mga special occasions, sa stability<br />

ng financial status ng family namin, sa mga<br />

successful projects sa work, sa regularization<br />

ko, sa mga bagong spiritual sisters who are<br />

always willing to pray for me, sa mga kaibigan<br />

na nag-stay at hindi nagsasawang mahalin ako,<br />

sa chance na makatulong sa nangangailangan,<br />

at sa ‘di Mo pagsuko lalo na sa mga oras na<br />

nawawalan na ako ng gana sa buhay. -Marla<br />

Eniong<br />

Kahit sobrang hirap ng mga nangyari sa buhay<br />

ko, blessed pa rin ako. God removed what<br />

needed to be removed, and added what needed<br />

to be added. Nakakuha pa ako ng scholarship<br />

for my masters, which was way more than I<br />

expected -Ruemer Santillan<br />

I started <strong>the</strong> year with fears and doubts that I<br />

would be able to write a research paper. Now,<br />

by <strong>the</strong> grace <strong>of</strong> God, I will be presenting my<br />

research paper in an international conference<br />

this March 2019! -Faith Jovellanos<br />

I’m 4th year and college, and I’ve been through<br />

a lot <strong>of</strong> emotional breakdowns due to a lot <strong>of</strong><br />

school works and personal problems. I thought I<br />

wasn’t going to make it, but little did I know<br />

that I would be ending my final and toughest<br />

first semester with a high GWA! I am thankful<br />

for <strong>the</strong> gift <strong>of</strong> family and friends, and for <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

support. And I am thankful for my faith in<br />

Jesus Christ who streng<strong>the</strong>ns me. -Karl Robles
