I Will Walk For A Scholar... Walk With Me!

ANCOP GLOBAL WALK 2012

As God continues to bless our community and even our personal lives, this also comes with the honor of being a blessing to other people.

Through ANCOP (Answering the Cry of the Poor), Couples for Christ’s work with the poor program, we have been given the opportunity to help and make a difference.

One way to get involved is to take part in the ANCOP Global Walk 2012. 

It aims to:

TO RAISE FUNDS to support the ANCOP Scholarship program
            Continue1,000 scholars and
            Support 1,000 more college scholars or 2,000 more elementary or highschool scholars

TO RAISE AWARENESS of ANCOP as the social ministry of Couples for Christ, Servants of the Lord, Handmaids of the Lord, Singles for Christ, Youth for Christ and Kids for Christ

 

Last year, more than 50,000 people coming from all walks of life, joined the event in Metro Manila, plus thousands more from the different provinces in the Philippines and key cities around the world, walked for a scholar.  Some Middle East countries braved the intense heat just to be able to support.  It was indeed a victory not just for the scholars who will benefit from this, but also for God and His self-less people.


Also last year, ANCOP was blessed to have been re-launched in the various countries for CFC Middle East, particularly, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait.  And since then, brothers and sisters from the region have been supporting the various programs and projects of ANCOP more particularly its goal to build homes and support poor scholars.

 This year, ANCOP will once again be mobilizing “walkers” on August 12, 2012 and everyone is invited to take part in the ANCOP Global Walk 2012.

For those who are scheduled to come home to the Philippines this August, you may join the various walk sites in Manila or key provinces.  Details as follows (for Manila Walk): - ANCOP Walk Site

For countries in the region who wish to organize your own walk, you may coordinate with your respective CFC and ANCOP national heads.

Let us be one in making a difference.  Walk for a Scholar!  Christ already led the way… it’s time for us to follow in His steps.

Keep Christ in Christmas: THE LIGHT OF HOPE

"I’m participating in the KEEP CHRIST in CHRISTMAS Blog Link-Up 2013 sponsored by the  Catholic Bloggers Network ." Be sure to  visit as many links as possible , listed at the bottom of this post. Reflecting on the 1st candle of Advent, the "light of Hope", I was reminded of a story I read as a child.  Most of my contemporaries would probably remember "The Little Match Girl" written by Hans Christian Andersen: It was terribly cold and nearly dark on the last evening of the old year, and the snow was falling fast. In the cold and darkness, a poor little girl with bare head and naked feet, roamed through the streets. It is true she had on a pair of slippers when she left home, but they were not of much use. They were very large, so large, indeed, for they had belonged to her Mother and the poor little girl had lost them in running across the street to avoid two carriages that were rolling at a terrible rate. One of the s

My Friends Tigger and Pooh and a Musical Too! - DVD Review

If your kids love music, then they will surely love this film.   What’s more, who can ever resist Winnie the Pooh, Tigger and the rest of their Hundred Acre Woods friends! My 3-year old toddler totally loves Playhouse Disney.   Some of his favorites are of course, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Little Einsteins, Handy Manny and My Friends Tigger and Pooh .   Unfortunately, when the channel was re-branded into Disney Junior, I was surprised to discover that the show, My Friends Tigger and Pooh, aired its series finale in February 2011, and will no longer be part of the new Disney Junior. It was then that I decided to get my son a DVD copy so that he can continue to enjoy this show even if it’s no longer airing on TV.   When I discovered this DVD film, I knew it was perfect for my son because of his love for music. And true enough, it was an instant hit!   My Friends Tigger and Pooh and a Musical Too is a 60-minute full-length film based on the Playhouse Disney series, My Fr
