Birth, Life, Ministry and death of Jesus Christ are all Miraculous--- Mary was pledge to be
married to Joseph, but before they came together she was found to be with child through the
Holy Spirit. Matt. 1:18-23 About 300 years before birth this prophecy was given. Isa.7:14 NIV
Therefore the Lord Himself Will give you a sign the Virgin will be with Child and will give birth to
a son and will call Him Emmanuel- meaning God with us. (Matt.1:23) KJV Ceasar Agustus
issued a decree… Census should be taken of the entire Roman World. V.4 Joseph also went
from Nazareth to Bethlehem- town of David- he belonged to the line of David to register with
Mary who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child- while there time come
for the Baby to be born and she gave birth to her first born son- wrapped him in clothes placed
him in a manger because there was no room for them in the Inn- Shepherds were nearby
keeping watch over their flocks at night, an Angel of the Lord appeared to them- the glory of
the Lord shone around them- the Angel said “Do not be afraid, I bring you good news of great
Joy- that will be for all people, today in the town of David a Savior was born to you he is Christ
the Lord- a sign, you will find a baby wrapped in clothes lying in a manger.” Suddenly a great
company of the heavenly host appeared with the Angel, praising God, “Glory to God in the
highest and on earth peace to men.” Shepherds said, “Lets go to Bethlehem and see this thing
that happened- they hurried off and found Mary, Joseph and the Baby in a manger- they
spread the news about the baby in the manger and what had been told about the Child- all
were amazed. (Lk. 2:1-18) NIV

, Miracles Graced the Earth! Our Lives—with God through Jesus Christ is a miracle- Ephesians 1:2-4 “Praise be to
God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who has blessed us in heavenly realm with every spiritual blessing in Christ.
For He chose us in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in His sight.
“For God so loved the world He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but
have eternal life.” John 3:16
This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down His life for us and we ought to lay down our lives for our
brothers. I John 3:16 NIV
Our Work- Grace Christian Mission Home/Orphanage is graced by God with a string of different kinds of indigent
children for us to love with the love of Jesus. God graced each staff with wisdom on how to develop each child.
Miracle! When a new stubborn child in a hopeless case is loved with the love of Jesus—after few days is heard and
seen singing JOYFULLY to God with the other children.
Our identical twins: Mary Joy and Mary May- the day they were brought to the Home by their young helpless
mother- filled our Home with JOY.
We fell in love with our twins. Mary Joy thought she is Mary May the same is true with Mary May she thought she
is Mary Joy. Vis-à-vis. We struggled to look for marks to identify them. Each staff took turns; helped them learn few
things at a time- pronounce words properly and how to eat properly - now Mary Joy knows who she is and calls her
sister May-May.
Have a hand shake with our children! At worship time in Church we sing the song, “There’s a Welcome Here”,
walk around shake hands with everyone- “Oh their tiny hands in mine and look up at me with their smiles- sending to
my heart miracles of love! Have an imagination- “you are having a hand shake with the tiny hands did you feel
something?” Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this to look after Orphans and Widows in
their distress…" James 1:27

Prayer Request:
1. The putting up of the first Dignity Products and Services Plant- Philippines in Barayong, Cagmanaba, Oas Albay-

prosperous and successful.” (Joshua 1:1 & 8)
