This blog was out of touch for over three weeks since my last blog entry pending financial constraints facing this blog ministry. Updating the blog means money as I have to pay the internet cafe for time used in the computer to blog -- as I am doing right now. I have learned to beg not only for food but also for some money -- for this blog; I just ask for money but I never told where to use the money for. Aside from asking for meals from a certain monastery, I went overboard so as to ask for goods as rice, noodles and sardines that I can sell. I also asked a certain young pastor, a non-Catholic minister, for some help; and I was given a twenty-peso bill! Along with the poor, I line myself beside the City Hall to avail of a weekly government subsidy of a kilo of rice, a pack of noodles, a can of sardines -- and Php20! The goods are then sold cheap so to be able to update this blog. Other financial needs are as follows: Php2,000 debt for a "third-hand" point-and-shoot camera that I have acquired since the start of this blog; an acquisition of a "second-hand" DSLR camera although this is not immediate but surely a need for this ministry.
"As for me, miserable and poor, the Lord thinks of me. You are my help and my deliverer; O my God, do not delay." -Psalm 40:17
