6.35

 Year 6.35 was a dangerous virus week. Monday was still normal as normal be but bad signs are everywhere. I bought flowers and visited my chiropractor who gave me new meds to boil. I’m an expert by now.


Day two was monthly mandated chapel for all. It’s not doing much except a change in perspective and philosophy. It’s blessed enough to have five for lunch. Senior has flown.


Wednesday was a full day vacation where I worked on my Spanish grammar. I’m content as content be. I had to work harder on a replacement sermon after knowing sunday speaker Dean is sick. 


Day four was back to boiling my new Chinese medicine again the second round. It’s harder to soak than boil them. The colors are terrible and so is kitchen cleaning.


Friday was a hair cut to remember the monthly anniversary of Doris’ loss. At night the virus lockdown was tighter for the infection increase.


Day six was lunch with Marion but night was bonkers when they announced the cancellation of worship. 

I feel for buddy in his position.


Sunday was not my best because it’s an old sermon, no audience due lockdown and no time to prepare! Lo and behold, I’m into Matthew 25 in Spanish!

6.32

 Year 6.32 was hectic but encouraging. As usual I got flowers for Doris and went the the chiropractor who gave me 27 days of Chinese medicines boil! It costs less than a cup of Starbucks.


Day two was a less serious coworkers meeting because most are on holiday. I had to figure out how to download the Spanish Bible.


Wednesday was a big preparation day for Sunday’s Rev 9 sermon. My mind was all over the place because the text is pretty crazy in itself.


Day four was another day of looking for sermons, I was glad I found one from Martin Luther.


On Friday I ended the old year with a leg massage and a new year call to sz and get ready for tomorrow’s new year 7am morning worship.


Day six was a rush to church but I managed to do it in record 30 minutes. Walter came by to help me fix online transfer but I lost my phone in the restaurant and got a new one before dinner with English praise team.


Sunday sermon was well received, praise God. In the afternoon we have an ok leaders meeting. I am ready for my Spanish grammar bible challenge!

6.30

 Year 6.30 was bitter sweet. My Monday chiropractor appointment was a leg treatment that resulted in a hurt skin. It would take me more than a week to heal.


Day two was morning holiday for me before my leave is confiscated! I’m all too happy working on song subtitles. The morning rest is good.


Wednesday was leaders meeting and some were shocked i had my fair share of questions to which I got a call. Here debate is discouraged.


Day four was morning leaders budget meeting, and it was ok because it didn’t eat too much of my time. I have baptism sermon on my plate.


Friday was English breakfast and my two coworkers are doing fine. It’s better working on breakfast time than over an empty room.


Day six was busy day with Holland pastors trying and night fellowship Christmas party. I’m happy it my last training. The fellowship testimony was good.


Sunday was packed with icc worship, English worship and baptism sermon! At night we had solstice dinner with family and John and victor.

6.28

 Year 6.28 was a dizzy week for me. On Monday I woke up to a fainting spell when I lie down or wake up. I carried on as usual but I was conscious I needed to be careful. I mentored Alliance Ivan on preaching. He’s a new found person waiting to go.


Day two was a good fifth week so I can catch up with sermon preparation for Rev 8 next week. It’s not getting easier.


Wednesday morning was my leave so I could only work on my sermon in the afternoon. I made myself wake up after 8.


Day four was a breakthrough. I figured I could use my sickness for sermon introduction. 


Friday was lunch with a young staff leaving for csw. It’s quite a merry go round lately. 


Day six was core then fellowship and later worship. I was glad buddy is improving by leaps and bounds in grammar. I didn’t dare to look back at my old Rom 1 afterwards.


On Sunday I treated the newly weds Lams and a few others to lunch as pastoral courtesy. Praise God I can encourage them.

6.27

 Year 6.27 was a big week for buddy and I. First we had a big velo thanksgiving lunch with her wife that started from 1130am till 130pm when I had to go for my chiropractor appointment.


Day two was leaders meeting and I did not get the votes to lead to buddy’s disappointment. I felt little for myself because my work is more than sanctum leadership.


Wednesday was another big case on divorce. I got the manual to make sure we know the headquarters viewpoint.


Day four was meeting an old islander who is interested to put grammar bible on video! That would be interesting!


Friday was a normal day but I encouraged buddy and new appointee. I’m really glad my tenure is done and i can plough on with mentoring and writing.


Day six was Holland online training day two and at night I went for a foot masssge because my right foot froze two days ago.


Sunday was handing wontons to v who’s been an angel helping out. D announced his wedding next month.

6.21

 Year 6.21 was not comfy but ok. Monday was a usual week of buying flowers and seeing a chiropractor.


Day two was a typhoon day that arrived a day earlier. It was a big day because I finished translating the study questions from Women in the Bible.


Wednesday was starting on translating Doris’ healing book.

 Besides we got to wait out the storm that left at night, but I survived admirably with or without swimming.


Day four was a public holiday and I waited for the pool to open at 3pm after spending restless hours at home.


Friday was a new work day after the typhoon. I had to catch up with sermon work and trying to get unstuck on Revelation.


Day six was a day of complain I could do without a name. On fellowship day my class with Matthew did not materialize but I’m glad to see him involved in fellowship regardless of program.


On Sunday I survived Sunday school despite a lack of students due typhoon. Three weeks on Ecclesiastes wisdom is truly a lot.

6.20

 Year 6.20 was less than ideal. On Monday I picked up a new mentee who is buddy’s sheep, but he needs help in preaching and teaching.


Day two worship meeting was one I did not attend but trusted my two coworkers to represent the ministries. Harry gave a good lecture for the coworkers.


Wednesday was prayer gone awry and we lost another because changing names were annoying to the person.


Day four was farewell lunch for Liverpool bound coworkers. Eight strong were there to send the person off.


Friday was a good day to start on Rev 10 template. The book is getting harder and worse.


Typhoon struck fiercely and I ended up watching Squid and getting an illustration idea. Home is best staycation!


Sunday was a good worship day after the typhoon left, but the uncertainty persists with fellowship.

6.19

 Year 6.19 was a long, tiring weekend. On Monday I did my usual flower shopping abs then visited my chiropractor. Dinner was with buddy and wife, whom I haven’t seen for two months.


On Tuesday I talked to Jose to see if his deacon friend could help out. Other than that my neighbor coworker is doing fine.


On Wednesday I had to work harder on my Sunday sermon. It’s still not in shape but there’s no good way to talk about Revelation 6!


Day four was a stark realization that tomorrow is a holiday, so I have one day less on my sermon. It’s a hot 34 degrees day so I went night swimming for the first time.


On Friday I went to window shopping for swim wear but the shop had major renovations. At night was another swimming day.


Day six was morning was core meeting. The team still has room for improvement and the meeting went on forever.


Sunday was teaching Ecclesiastes 8 in Sunday school, followed by preaching then retreat. Two young guns were unhappy with our name.

6.18

 Week 6.18 did not have a happy ending. Monday was haircut day due mid autumn tomorrow and Doris day Wednesday. I can’t stand the chance that the shops might be closed.


Day two was mid autumn dinner with my young friends and philosopher newcomer. I’m the biggest cheerleader on festive occasions but I miss Doris and two.


Wednesday was a holiday and I got together with Doris’ Canada friends for a good buffet and bought a Mona Lisa tumbler for gz son.


Day four was meeting with seniors team that I inherited lately with restructuring. I told them to auto run and I don’t want them to have two bosses with my interference. Dinner with under pressure buddy and our former partners was a blast.


Friday was sentimental because I miss two who’s got 000000 now.   Can’t believe it’s been three years since i went to the embassy. Pray for twos well-being.


Day four was frantically looking at next week’s sermon on Rev 6! I joined rehearsal and later had dinner with buddy who needs support.


Sunday school was exciting and newcomers got the hang of it. Ecclesiastes 7 was a gem even in class!
