Mission is a passion for Jesus and at the same time a passion for people.
~ Pope Francis
Let’s follow Chris†‘s example by serving others ~ regardless of mistakes along the way (like my off-tune ♪singing♫ at Church yesterday) ~ as our fai†h will always prevail, our missions won’t fail!

World Mission Sunday
Send me forth each day, O God,
to announce Your peace, love,
forgiveness and joy to all the earth. Like the Samaritan,
help me be a good neighbor.Like the Centurion,
help me confess my faith.Like the Beloved Disciple, help me to be a bold
and faithful witness to Your Resurrection.
All the world deserves to hear Your Good News.
Help me proclaim and live it today.
Amen.
~ Father Joseph R. Veneroso

We haven’t officially experienced fall climate until this week!

What do you think of Pope Francis‘ Laudato Si environmental encyclical?
Praise Be His creation!
I’m taking full advantage of taking care of my share of †GOD’s† ☼creations☼ and creatures this weekend!
Following a long week filled with grading speeches and continuing my doctoral dissertation data processing, I beat the heat before today’s rain hit to tend to the garden.
St. Francis of Assisi ~ the Patron Saint of Animals ~ welcomes GOD’s creatures into this Garden of Creation!
In bloom …
Fully blossomed!
To yours truly, gardening is very therapeutic…
And to my fine, furry friends, this gives them a chance to peer into the great outdoors!

I’ve always admired my parents‘ hard work, not just in their jobs, but also in how they maintain their home.
To this very day, almost three decades since we moved into their forever home, I still consider it as the nicest one on the block all year round.
Just part of my parents’ front yard on the southwest side
- My dad, who has a green thumb, takes pride in doing his own gardening.
- My mother, who decorates for every single holiday, decks the halls and the porches to welcome each season.
A brand-new addition to their spring blossoms: This pink flower is in full bloom!
Who needs Home Owners Association when this DISPO DIY couple prefer to exercise their own creativity?

April Showers☔️ bring:
MORE May Showers! ⚡️
My dad grows beautiful blossoms🌸 in his 🌳garden. Now they’re in full 🌺bloom. This is great timing⏰ with my mom’s 🎈celebrations🎁 this month.
After Mother’s Day, Mami Aya asked Papa Jun not to give her anymore 🌹roses. She meant flowers in general, but since she wasn’t clear…
He gave her calla lillies for her birthday! 🌻
While my Nanay appreciated his always kind gestures, she passed along the bouquet💐 to someone more deserving …

Remember my student’s science fair project about ♫music♪ effect on plants?
Science Project Poster: an elementary eye candy version of the presentations that I teach and the research experiment that I’m conducting!
I still have his yellow hibiscus that went without ♪music♫ in the experiment.
Now that we’ve entered ♣spring♣, this hibiscus can soak in the ☼sunshine☼, bloom and blossom!
Today, we had a hail storm hit, but I didn’t have much notice to remove it …
Before … Will my hibiscus withhold this hail storm??
At least this fortunate flower’s still in tact in the aftermath of this April shower!
After … YES, indeed, she did survive without withering!!!
Friendly reminder: Earth Day is on April 22nd!

During this ♥Valentine’s♥ week
Hello Kitty ♥Valentine’s♥ bow handcrafted by mi comadre Mona
I had 2 marriage proposals this past Wednesday alone
and a slew of gifts from my †GOD†-sent students then and yesterday!
Hence, the perks of being a single teacher
With ♥Valentine’s♥ weekend ahead
I look forward to
reaping the rewards of my photography and reporting career
by capturing ♥Valentine’s♥ babies on camera mañana
♪Ring around the Rosies♫
and covering Claudie Royals‘ birthday banquet this ☼Sunday☼
♫Pocket full of Posies♪
†GOD† has blessed me abundantly
by always being by my side
and bringing me ♥Valentines♥ who charm, warm, touch and move my ♥heart♥
Sniff, sniff: Annie takes a whiff! Smell the flowers!
After all …
Take delight in the †LORD†, and he will give you the desires of your ♥heart♥.
