I would just like to inform you that on Friday, April 2, 2010 from 1:30pm-3:00pm in the afternoon, our youth directors from the union and conference level will hold a consultation meeting with all AMiCUS members from NPUC. So please prepare the issues and concerns regarding the AMiCUS ministry you wish to raise during that time. So again take note of this:

A Flicker of Hope, A Spark of Light

E-mail Print PDF

February 5, 2010 was a date to remember for the Adventist students of the University of the Philippines Manila. After several years of inexistence within the campus, some students have finally stepped out of the confines of their colleges to stand up for their beliefs as Seventh-day Adventists. With the assistance of the AMiCUS-CLCAA, students studying in the crowded Ermita, Manila Campus have finally gathered and started their first devotional.

For someone who has seen the rise and the fall fo the chapter, it was an overwhelming blessing to find a lot of active young students trying their best to restart and rebuild the chapter from its ruins. Currently they are back to square one but with the 15+ members that we have identified as Adventists, the dream of reviving the chapter is not far from happening.

At present, prayers for the fledgling small group to turn the spark into a blaze is greatly needed. More so, if you were an alumni of AMiCUS UPM or someone interested in joining this group, feel free to join their midweek and vesper meetings at various spots along Taft, Padre Faura or Pedro Gil. Wait for further announcements regarding these meetings.

 

The Seeds of the Thoughts

E-mail Print PDF

The AMiCUS-MCAC Chapter, in production of the Seeds of the Ministry, now Season 2, would feature “The Seeds of the Thoughts” deriving from Matthew 13:1-23, The Parable of the Sower. This will be an AY program this 20 February, 2010, Sabbath, 1:00pm at the Main auditorium of Manila Center Adventist Church located at D. Tuazon corner Quezon Avenue, Quezon City.

“The Seeds of Thoughts”, with Empowering the Youth, Empowering the Church as its theme has objectives such as:
a) to give thanks to god for all the talents and blessings he had given and poured on us;
b) to use our God-given talents in His own service;
c) to inspire others that they may also share their hidden talents in their own ministries;
d) to spread the gospel in the way God wanted to through the youth; and
e) to bring forth souls at the foot of the cross that they may also be saved by God’s loving and merciful grace.

This program will be showcasing the God-given talents poured on the youth, especially performances of original Godly and Scripture-related presentations that they themselves made. Categories to be presented will be short skit, sign language, human video, hand mime, choric speech, song, musical act, speech, argumentation…

The program proper will be interwoven by a pantomime playas its background featuring the four scenarios given in the parable, i. e., The seeds the fell along the path (people who had heard the word yet did not understand it); the seeds that fell on rocky places (people who had heard the word and received it with joy, but when persecution comes they quickly declines); the seeds that fell among thorns (people who had heard the word, but are worried with this life and the deceitfulness of wealth made unconducive to bear the fruits of the spirit); and the seeds that fell on good soil (people who had heard the word and understood it , spreading what they have known and bring forth souls at the foot of the cross).

We would be glad to see you AMiCUS clan to come with your whole chapters, alumni associations, conferences’ directors, chaplains, advisers, and pastors. It would also be better if you would come together with your family, friends, classmates, church mates, associates, etc. so that they may also be blessed as well.

LET US SING PRAISES TO HIS NAME IN THE HIGHEST

“Seeds of great discoveries are constantly floating around us, but they only take root in the minds well-prepared to receive them.”

“Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has, will be taken from him.” Matthew 13:12

 


PS: We would like to know those who are interested to share their talents in this no-speech play, yet characters will be portrayed by their costumes and attitudes. Interested parties may contact Cielo at 0905-5757-667 until the first week of February 2010 before we start our workshop sessions. We encourage the whole CLC AMiCUS (MCAC, UPD, PUP,…) to enjoin in this activity.

We gladly welcome supports (i.e., talents, food, artistry, programming, public relations or communications, equipments, finances, or whatever you have from your hearts to bring forth to God as offerings in His service). The Alumni Associations are much welcomed to participate and share. Let us build the church together in anticipation of the near advent of our Lord.

Proceeds of this event will be allocated for the outreach programs and the gift-giving activity at the end of the year.

Maraming salamat sa inyong lahat. We hope that our brief stay in Tagaytay has made us young Seventh-day Adventists ready and eager to do more for God's Ministry! God bless you all and more power to your respective chapters. Let's keep in touch.

To our dear AMICUS Friends,

Christian Greetings!

Last Dec. 4-12, 2009, the Adventist University of the Philippines (AUP) had experienced a foretaste of Generation of Youth for Christ (GYC) (check out www.gycweb.org) through Philippine Youth for Christ. Speakers coming from the United States mainly, Dr. Samuel Koranteng- Pipim, Pastor Randy Skeete and Pastor Karl Tsatalbasidis delivered timely messages that revived AUP Students in the whole campus. And now through the working of the Holy Spirit, the whole Philippines is about to experience a GYC Philippines that serves as a movement to encourage young people to take part in hastening the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, on Dec. 17-22, 2010 at the AUP campus.

It is our earnest desire for our AMICUS friends to be part of it also.

Please do reply in this email that we may work together for God's cause.

Thank you so much and may our good Lord bless AMICUS!

P.S.
more details to be followed


Jazel May B. Martinez  
Director in Communication
GYC Philippines
