Topic: Prophecy Meditation

Message to Fr. Melvin Doucette December 31, 2007

 

I call you all to open your eyes

 

Reading: Genesis 1:1-31

 

Dear friends,

 

The old year is fast going away and a new one is here. Let it be a year with the Lord.

 

Due to the snowstorm forecast, there might be very few people at the hour of prayer tonight from 11:00 p.m. to 12:00 midnight. I will spend the time with Our Lord in prayer, asking for His blessing on the New Year. I wish a Blessed and Happy New Year to you all. May the Lord give you good health, His peace, love and joy and all the wonderful graces you need to follow Him in 2008.

 

My time of contemplative prayer this morning was spent with our Heavenly Father who said, Melvin, My son and sharer in the priesthood of My Son Jesus, I love you and bless you. I love you all, My sons and daughters who believe in Me, your Father, and in Jesus, My Son, and your Saviour. I have taken care of you in the year that is ending and I will be with you to provide for your needs, both physical and spiritual, during the New Year 2008. Place all your trust in Me.

 

It is a fact that the faith of many is getting more and more shallow. Many put their trust in their own ability to survive and in their work. They think the only thing they need is money in order to find happiness. Because of their lack of faith, they no longer pray and go to church. They live as practical atheists. They live a life of sin far from Me, filled with pride and caught in one or more of the deadly sins. They need someone to pray for them, as they can no longer ask for My help.

 

These non-believers are living a lie that I do not exist. You who believe know better. I call you all to open your eyes and see all that I have created. Can human beings produce a beautiful sunset, a rainbow, a flower or the sand on the seashore? Where do you think a flowering tree comes from and who produced all the many kinds of birds? Everything in the world was created by Me, your Father, as a gift to you. Just look at the clockwork of the whole universe and marvel at all this creation of Mine. If you have faith, you will know that all this beauty, grace, accuracy and wonder of the universe I created out of love for you. Are you not going to thank Me for all I have done for you? Live the New Year in union with Me, your Father, Jesus, My Son, and the Holy Spirit. I bless you all.

 

Father Melvin

Message From the Father Thru Lec - December 29, 2007

MESSAGE FROM THE FATHER
December 29, 2007
6:40 AM

Son, let me say these words through you!

To all my creation, my Fatherly love belongs to you. Your Father, the Father of All Mankind alerts you to the great possibility of widespread turmoil descending into many lands. Earthly resources are strained to their limits which will trigger intense rivalry to take possession of what are still available. Resources that run the civilized world are fast running out with the consequent radical change that will affect peoples' lives everywhere. This is not my own doing. I am merely making known what many people suspect long ago that the inevitable time is near at hand. I am saying these to prepare peoples' minds for them to accept the unfolding reality and thereby adjust to the forthcoming changes, restructure their lives so that in the coming days, they will not lose heart, not be discouraged as if I am ignorant of their plight and cannot hear their cries for mercy. But all of these things must come to pass as they were written, a whole days wage for a loaf of bread.

Prepare!

Teaching from Jesus through The Girl of My Will - 2003-06-07

Gathering of Love with God's Action in Saint Boniface, Manitoba, Canada
Through His Instrument, the Girl of My Will in Jesus



2003-06-07

Jesus: My children who love with me, I have gathered you together so you could
see your presence in me.

Every child in this world must acknowledge that he is in me, Jesus; I have
called you to love, I have asked you to love one another.

Every child on earth, I know his gift of love to God.

Every child on earth who has not given his gift to God, I know him as well.

My children of love, before your eyes you have had Jesus giving himself, taking
all children of the world within himself, bringing unto death all their impure
actions.

All those children are in me; I have not removed a single child who refuses
God's love, and you, you are in me, you are in my presence, you are also with
all the children of the entire world.

I am aware of your gift of love.

I want to teach you, my children, to know those who are in pain, I want to make
you see within yourselves your brothers and your sisters.

You live your life and you also live your life in the presence of your brothers
and your sisters.

You cannot be indifferent to their actions.

You carry within you the children who do good deeds, but you also carry within
you children who do bad deeds, and because of this: you suffer.

You thirst for love, you want to know happiness on earth.

But the time during which I, I ask you to stay with your brothers and your
sisters in suffering has not yet come to an end.

You still have a short amount of time left in order to help your brothers and
your sister who do not know that I dwell within them.

I want to make them discover God's love, God's mercy.

I came to suffer while taking all these children within myself.

You, the children who are aware that Jesus is living, that Jesus still bears
suffering within him, you must learn to give me your brothers who are suffering,
you must also learn to abandon yourselves in me, Jesus, by giving me your human
will.

I want to cover you with my action.

I want to make you discover why you came on earth.

I want to make you discover the true value of your inner life.

My children, look at me, I gave myself, you can see my wounds, they bear every
child on earth: they are in me.

I am the Life, I am in you, you are in me, and because you are in me, you must
become aware that you carry children who are suffering.

Sin is the (cause) of your sufferings, my children.

As I gave myself, I want you to give yourselves.

I want to take your sufferings within myself, I want you to give me the
sufferings of your brothers and of your sisters.

I alone am the Power; I alone have the power to heal you.

These wounds you see on my Body are the marks of your life.

As long as one of you is not completely abandoned in my wounds, allowing me to
eradicate all impurities, I, I shall continue supporting you in your refusals.

My children, I have been crying out since my arrival on earth, I cry out within

you to surrender your lives to me.

When I was on earth, I taught my apostles about abandonment in God.

When I gave myself up to my Father, I was showing through this that you as well
had to give yourselves up in me, Jesus, I who gave myself to my Father.

I said that it was necessary to die in me in order to obtain life, but the
children of this world refuse to give themselves to me, they no longer have
faith in my laws of love, they even deny my coming into this world, they no
longer believe in my eucharistic Presence, consequently, they are denying
themselves the love I have for them.

This is why I have come to speak to each of you, you, my

Father's chosen children, to evangelize my children.

The Holy Spirit will cover you with his power; he is the one who will place
within you the words you must pronounce.

Those words will have to come from me, Jesus, in you.

You will hear them through the power of the Holy Spirit, for such is my Father's
Will, and I accomplish my Father's Will. This is why I have come to ask you, my
children of the Light, to give me your yes like a child.

I know your yes, it belongs to you, it is part of your daily lives, it comes
from your human will.

I, I want more than this: I want you to surrender your lives to me, Jesus.

I want to cover your yes with my yes, for my yes has born you, for my yes is in
your presence; you see it before you, it has imprinted itself upon my Flesh, and
I, who allowed my Heart to be opened, I let you enter into me.

Beloved, you must abandon yourselves in me, Jesus.

A yes that remains only on the outside is a yes of suffering, it is a yes that
must always be nourished with love, it is a yes that must allow itself to be
transformed by my Precious Blood.

There is only Jesus who can turn you into yeses of love, yeses worthy of my
Father.

My children, I want you to enter into me, I want you to come into my Heart, I
want to envelop your yes.

Your yes shall be my yes, it will bear fruits of love for you and for those you
carry within you, for if I carry you within me, I also carry those you carry,
because when you agree to enter into me, into my Heart, you agree to be with
your brothers and your sisters in me, Jesus.

You will form but one with me, for I am the Power.

I want you to give me your human will.

I want you to efface yourselves so that I, I can take up all the room within
you.

I want to purify all your actions.

I want to turn you into children of the Light, as my Mother wants you to be.

My Mother is asking you to pray with your hearts.

Your hearts, my children, are those of your brothers and of your sisters, you
are in them.

When you pray with your heart, you pray with your brothers and your sisters.

I want you to come and place all this in my Heart, for my Mother is the Gate of
Heaven.

You carry Heaven within you: wherever I am is where my Father is, wherever I am
and wherever my Father is, is where the Holy Spirit is.

You are inhabited by the Holy Spirit, you are inhabited by the love of God the
Father, you are inhabited by crucified Jesus.

Do you see that you carry Heaven within you?

You must come with what you are: your sufferings, your illnesses, your fears,
your fears over not being able to be love; I alone shall transform you with what
you are.

If I can do this for you, I can also do this for all those you carry within you.

I am Mercy. I am Love.

I am the same one who allowed himself to be crucified on the Cross.

You carry life within you.

I am the Life, and in me, you shall be eternal.

My children of love, I am speaking to you like this because soon you will see
Jesus within yourselves.

You will be in the very presence of glorified Jesus.

You will be enveloped in my love.

You will see every one of your actions.

Whether they are good or bad, you will see all you have done on earth, and you
will also see all you have produced within yourselves: nothing will be hidden
from you.

All will be happiness and joy for those who behaved well, and for those who
behaved badly, I will envelop them in my love so they do not suffer too greatly,
as some of my children will want to die for their pain will be so intense!

I, I will protect them from themselves.

This is why you, my children of the Light, I ask you to pray for your brothers,
for your sisters.

When you pray, you pray in me, Jesus, you become a presence within my children
who do not pray, and the graces that Jesus gives you will be beneficial to those
children.

You see, I give to each of you so that you too may learn to give.

Just as I gave myself up on the Cross, I want you to give yourselves up on your
cross, for when you live in this world where there is evil, you carry sufferings
within yourselves.

You are being hurt, you suffer, but because you pray to me, I, I give you graces
and your sufferings become your consolation, for I cover you with my love.

How many of my children have suffered with joy in their hearts!

They could not understand why they were happy even as they were suffering.

This could not have been because of their jovial nature, this came from me, Jesus.

I was giving them graces of love for themselves, and these children were experiencing peace.

They were not living in suffering, in fear, they felt that there was something good inside themselves.

They could not explain this as it was inside them, it was not external.

Today, the children who suffer and who do not come to me seek comfort.

They will take medication, they turn to doctors who might bring them external comfort.

This might relieve their sufferings but this does not give them the joy of offering themselves on behalf of those they love.

Do you see how God wants to make you discover love for your neighbour?  You know children around you who have performed these deeds of love.

Some of you are living this because I nourish you with my Life: my Life that is, that was and ever shall be.

You came into this world to journey towards my Father.

In this world, you have known sins, sins that have led you to illness, old age, and through me you were able to find within yourselves the consolation that was helping you to go forward, for you knew this was going to be your deliverance:
you were going to leave your body to go to my Father.

My children, I came into this world: I lived among you, I have seen your sufferings, I have seen your illnesses: I have healed, I have nursed, I have comforted, I have spoken to you about my Father; I told you that you were going
to know happiness but because of sins, I had to suffer, I had to carry my Cross, your cross in my Cross.

I led you to your path in life while carrying your life upon my shoulders, by giving you the example of the Cross, and through my apostles I showed you that it was necessary to die in me so as to be able to go forward with your suffering
to obtain your deliverance.

Your deliverance, my children, is to you a renunciation of what you have been on earth.

Forsaking your human will to live in the Divine Will,

in my Father's Will, this is where the
Kingdom of God is.

Adam and Eve said no to the Divine Will, for when, in their desire to become like little gods, they disobeyed, they said yes to their human will, wanting to choose on their own what was good and what was bad, and God withdrew his Divine Will for God is love.

He is a free God, he wants you to be free as well, he wants you to be love to him, he wants you to renounce your human will of your own accord.

My children, when you die, your physical body remains on earth, your soul presents itself to God.

A very short time is granted to you during which you see your life.

When you see God, and God envelops you in his love, the children of the earth who are before me and who have left their bodies, have a decision to make: the one of giving their yes to The Love, to renounce all they were (on earth), to
desire to live in the Divine Will (eternally), to desire to live in God, in Jesus, to go to my Father.

The children who are impure and who see themselves as unworthy of God's love, throw themselves into the fire of love in order to be purified.

It is with love that they do this because they have become love.

Evil has withdrawn from them and they become children of God, but as they know they are unworthy due to the sins they have committed, it is they themselves who agree to their purification.

This movement is love and when God the Father himself decides that they are worthy, these children come to him.

This time is unknown to them.

My children of love, I am coming to prepare you for the Great Purification on earth.

Every child on earth will see himself within himself, and this time is also unknown to you.

You, the children of the Light, you are in the process of allowing me, Jesus, to purify you.

When you accept your purification, you allow Jesus to turn you into children of the Divine Will.

You are already preparing your purification, and you are also helping the children you carry within you to become purified, for when they will be before me, they will have to agree to their purification in a moment of love.

That moment is unknown to them.

How long will this moment last? This is willed by my Father, it shall be according to what they have done on earth, and it is through you, my children, that I will come to help them so they will be able to withstand their sufferings.

This is why I am asking you to take them within you, to pray for them, to not judge them.

It is they who will judge themselves for not one of their deeds will not be shown to them, according to what they have been, for if a deed is impure, it is because they themselves have been impure.

No one shall escape this judgement; such is my Father's justice.

I am asking you to love one another, to give yourselves as I, I gave myself.

You are in me, you are part of my wounds, they too are part of my wounds.

I, I am Jesus, the only Son of God the Father and my sacrifice is unique.

Do you see, my children, that your sacrifices are part of my sacrifice?

Offer yourselves, give yourselves, God will reward you a hundredfold.

My children, if I were to tell you about the joy you will feel, you would not be
able to grasp all its worth because of your human will.

When you shall be in me, when you shall be children of the Divine Will, you will
be in this joy and then you will be able to grasp its entire depth for the
happiness within you will have revealed itself.

Behold, this time is coming soon.

Do not try to determine the moment; it is at this very moment that you must live
in the present; what is for tomorrow, leave that up to God.

Come die in me at this very moment and it is with the graces I give you right
now that you will live your tomorrow.

But before tomorrow comes, accumulate these graces of love through your yes in
me, Jesus.

I am The Love, I come to speak in your hearts.

I come to speak for your children, for your beloved brothers, for those you hold
so dear.

Be faithful.

I love you. I love you as you are. And if your children, your brothers and your
sisters whom you love so dearly, are not as you, you would like them to be: give
them to me! I carry them, they were in me before you, you come into this world;
they belong to me as you, you belong to me.

Trust in my word.

Keep your peace and when fear shall rise up within you, give it to me, for Satan
wants you to be afraid.

He loves it when you are doubtful, for he knows that I cannot act.

I cannot pour graces into you for your brothers and your sisters, for your
children, because when I pour graces into you, because you have doubted, you
have been afraid, then you see, they cannot benefit from these graces.

This is why he keeps you in fear and in doubt: give this to me and every time
you have a feeling of fear and of doubt: give it to me.

Remain at peace, in joy.

I come to bring you peace and love, for you, at this very moment in time, of
your present.

God wishes to bring down graces of love for you and for those you carry within
you.

Go within yourselves and welcome these graces. Take this time to be with me.

Amen.

Medjugorje Day BY Day  Dec 31 - WHEN YOU HEAR THE BELLS AT MIDNIGHT
 
 
At the same time, to another of the little seers in Jelena's prayer group, Jesus said the following:

 

When you hear the bells at midnight, you shall fall on your knees, bow your head to the ground, so that the King of Peace will come.


see below


  "Called to continue before the Most Blessed Sacrament the Magi's adoration
at the Crib of Bethlehem, we ought to make ours the thought and love which
guided and sustained them.  They began at
Bethlehem what we are doing in the
presence of the Sacred Host . . . .

    "The adoration of the Magi was a homage of faith and a tribute of love to
the Incarnate Word; such ought to be our Eucharistic adoration . . . .


    "How fortunate we are to be able to share, through the Eucharist, the
happiness of Mary, of the Magi, and of the first disciples who offered gifts to
Jesus Christ!  In the Eucharist we still have the poverty of
Bethlehem to
relieve.  Oh!  Yes!  All the good things of grace and of glory come to us through
the divine Eucharist.  Their fountainhead is at
Bethlehem, which became a
heaven of love; they gathered volume all through the life of the Savior; and all
these rivers of grace, virtue, and merit empty into the ocean of this adorable
Sacrament, in which we possess them in all their fullness . . . .


    "The Magi are our models, the first adorers.  Let us be worthy of their
royal faith in Jesus Christ.  Let us be heirs to their love, and one day we
will be heirs to their glory.  Amen" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).
 


Mother Teresa - 

 
There are so many little things we can do for others that are so small many people forget about them.
But these aren't small things.
They show our love for Christ.


Meditations by Padre Pio -


The palm of victory is reserved only for those who fight up to the end. Therefore let us begin this year our Holy battle. God will assist us and crown us with eternal triumph.


 
Archbishop Fulton Sheen - 
The animalistic nature of passion

 

"Passion has its seat in the body or the animal nature of man. It is the echo of the knowledge in our physical structure but it is not knowledge. Passion implies sensible changes, such as the flushing of the cheeks, the dilating of the pupils and the tensing of many of the muscles."

 


St. Faustina's diary  http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html  -


A vision of the Mother of God. In the midst of a great brilliance, I saw the Mother of God clothed in a white gown, girt about with a golden cincture; and there were tiny stars, also of gold, over the whole garment, and chevron-shaped sleeves lined with gold. Her cloak was sky-blue, lightly thrown over the shoulders. A transparent veil was delicately drawn over her head, while her flowing hair was set off beautifully by a golden crown which terminated in little crosses. On her left arm she held the Child Jesus. A Blessed Mother of this type I had not yet seen. Then she looked at me kindly and said: I am the Mother of God of Priests. At that, she lowered Jesus from her arm to the ground, raised her right hand heavenward and said: O God, bless
Poland, bless priests. Then she addressed me once again: Tell the priests what you have seen. I resolved that at the first opportunity [I would have] of seeing Father [Andrasz] I would tell; but I myself can make nothing of this vision.       (1585)

MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.

  
Dec 31 - WHEN YOU HEAR THE BELLS AT
MIDNIGHT


The Mother of God speaks of peace in the new year:


Next year will be a year of peace not because men have named it so but because God has planned it. You will not have peace through presidents, but through prayer (Locutionist Jelena & Mirjana Dec 31, 1985)


At the same time, to another of the little seers in Jelena's prayer group, Jesus said the following:


When you hear the bells at
midnight, you shall fall on your knees, bow your head to the ground, so that the King of Peace will come. This year I will offer my peace to the world. But afterwards, I will ask where you were when I offered it (Locutionist Jelena & Mirjana Dec 31, 1985).


Five years later, on New Year's Eve in 1990, the Gospa said to Ivan's prayer group:


Dear children, tonight your Mother invites you to go together with me to the church in joy and prayerfulness (there was a special Mass at
11:30 p.m.) In tonight's special joy, pray in church for the intention of peace (Visionary Prayer Group Dec 31, 1990).


And in Romans, Paul echoes the Virgin's call to peace:


For the
kingdom of God is not food and drink but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. The one who thus serves Christ is acceptable to God and has human approval. Let us then pursue what makes for peace and for mutual upbuilding (Rom 14:17-19).


Reflection:


The Queen of Peace fittingly closes the year with a call to peace. This has always been her central message, the primary reason for her apparitions in Medjugorje. And, with the prayers of her children, what wonders she has achieved! The fall of the Berlin Wall, the liberation of Eastern Europe, the collapse of Communism, the rebirth of the Russian republics, the rise of both democracy and the philosophy of human rights.


A new age of peace has dawned "not through the presidents, but through prayer". All of us who have helped Our Lady through prayer, fasting, and sacrifice; all of us who have tried to live her messages; all of us who have believed in her and trusted her we too have had a part in ushering in this new age.


In decades to come historians will puzzle over the cataclysmic events of the 1980's and 90's, trying to figure out how it all could have happened. And most will be unaware that it was the work of a young maiden on a hillside in
Yugoslavia, who wept for peace. Gathering the faithful from every land, she worked miracles. She continues to this day.


Application:


On New Year's Eve in 1985, Jesus said, "When you hear the bells at
midnight, you will fall on your knees, bow your head to the ground, so that the King of Peace will come". Let us live that message tonight.

 

ROBERT VARRICK: Tears Of An Angel


TEARS  OF  AN  ANGEL

 
Many times I have heard the song O HOLY NIGHT, but I've never heard it sung so beautifully as at Christmas Eve Mass, here at the Church of the Assumption in Manchester. A young lady from a small group of performers sang this song, so soft and gentle, delicate like a wisping flame of a candle. She sang like an angel, being lifted in spirit, as tears flowed down her face. The words came from deep within and as I listened, her voice of song, filled with tenderness and compassion, poured over me.

 
And there I was, in
Bethlehem, in the dark of night, peering over little baby Jesus in the manger, kneeling in reverence as the sweetness of words filled the air: A New Born King, The Holy One. A holy night of remembrance. The radiance of the bright star draws us closer to embrace the birth of little baby Jesus. From this manger, the first steps of our own journey begin. The illumination of the bright star becomes a beacon, casting its light in our direction; the illumination of the Holy Spirit is awakened and, with a beam of spiritual enlightenment, opens our heart and soul to ingest the gifts of the Spirit from the manger. They become an inner dwelling of spiritual confinement within us, a reservoir of our Lord's presence; with prayer and Eucharist it nourishes into compassionate embers'a love that burns and intensifies into a desire to be held in the Lord's embrace. And with this fragrance of heart it is I, who reaches out to the angel, to the one who sings.
 

After the Mass, I went up to this young lady and beckoned to her. She came forward and as I embraced her, I spoke softly and said, Thank you for singing O HOLY NIGHT. You sing like an angel. I saw the stream of tears on her face and wiped them and said, Your tears say it all, and then kissed her on the cheek. She was still in an uplifted state of emotion and said, Thank you. God bless you. I thanked her, and moved away, and left for home. I can tell you, when a performer such as this is overwhelmed into a state of compassionate tears, this is a grace from above, a genuine outpouring of purity of heart. To be touched and taken up in this realm of gifted moments is rare as heaven's mist of grace pours out fragrant words of song. The elevation of a heart and soul in these moments is beyond our control to extinguish; it is a spiritual calling to excel into a beauty of ecstasy. The song O HOLY NIGHT is usually sung with enthusiasm in celebration of our Lord's birth; but here, in unhurried whispered tones, the holy story unfolds with delicateness of a feather. The floatation of her words rested upon us, coated with the tears of an angel.

 
Indeed, this was, a Holy Night.

Dory Tan - Marmora, Ontario:Sharing given on December 12th, 2007


The Feast Day of Our Lady of Guadalupe

Sharing from Dory Tan on December 12th 2007


Our Blessed Mother Appeared to Dory at her home.

 

            On December 12th the Feast Day of Our Lady of Guadalupe while Dory was saying her morning prayers, Our Blessed Mother appeared to her.  She asked Dory to write down the story of how she received the Precious Blood of Her Son Jesus and to share this story with the people.


            On
September 15th 2004 the Feast Day of Our Sorrowful Mother, Dory was rearranging things at her altar.  She had a box of religious articles sitting there.  When she was looking through these items she came across a picture of Our Sorrowful Mother (see the photo).  It was a picture like the Pieta with the body of Her Son Jesus lying in Her arms.  When Dory went to pick up this picture from the box she noticed a piece of cotton stuck to the picture on the shoulder of Our Blessed Mother.  Dory was not sure where this picture and cotton came from.  The cotton was not white.  She could see by the colour of the cotton that it was very old and there appeared to be oil in the centre of it.  Dory sat at her altar with this cotton not knowing what it was.  Our Blessed Mother then told Dory to open up the cotton.  When she did this she saw a red spot in the centre of it.  At that time Dory did not know what it was.  Many people that Dory showed this cotton to were interested to find out more about it.  Dory prayed very hard to Our Blessed Mother about this and on the third day She answered her.  She said; “This is the Precious Blood of My Son Jesus.”  She explained to Dory that at the time before Her Sons Crucifixion, the two of them met at the fourth station.  Our Blessed Mother wiped the blood from Jesus’ forehead where He was Bleeding from the Crown of Thorns.  He told Her to save this cotton with His Blood and when the time comes He will tell Her who to give it to.  Our Blessed Mother said to Dory; “You are the One.”  Dory asked Our Blessed Mother;  who am I to receive the Precious Blood of Jesus?  Our Blessed Mother answered;  “No one can tell who you are, not even yourself.  Only Me and My Son Jesus know who you are.”


            Our Blessed Mother told Dory to tell the people that this Precious Blood Picture is like the Ark of Noah.  All the people that honour this Precious Blood Picture from their hearts and pray the Precious Blood Prayers every day will be saved.


§         1 Our Father


§         7 Hail Mary’s


§         1 Glory Be


§         3 times, by the power of Your Precious Blood may Your will be done.


§         Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mother Mary hold us and keep us in Your Hearts forever.


Dory reminds us that we must also live according to the will of God doing prayers and works of action for our neighbour.  We must also follow what Our Blessed Mother has asked us to do.


Dory ends by saying:  “God bless us all.”


Just a reminder that Dory will be in the
Philippines on First Saturday in January 5th.
