Missing Sundays with the Family

God is so good that He is very understanding. This is with regards to the Lord’s day. Some people say that if one cannot attend the mass/service on a Sunday, she can just do so on any other day provided that her heart is really into God.

But others don’t believe this. Being a Roman Catholic, there are lots of mass schedules on Sundays so if one has to work on Sundays, one can still attend the mass.

But wouldn’t it be nice to spend Sundays with the family. Going to mass together then going to the mall or any restaurant after for lunch. Then going home and relax.

I miss this kind of Sundays. I miss going to church with the whole family and then going to our store after. We can just eat there. My Dad would drive my Mom to our store after the mass, we would often join them. Then if we were in the mood to stay and help out in our store, then we would stay with our Mom, but if we wanted to relax at home, we would go back with our Dad. But we had to stop by Star to buy some food and a newspaper, then just spend Sunday at home watching tv.

I miss my family—the complete family—all 5 of us. Of course now there are Precious and Grace, but still, I miss having Dad around. I miss my Dad.

I miss the FAB Chapel. Speaking of chapel, here are the list of my favorite churches/chapels:

· Malate Church
· Carmel in Lipa
· San Sebastian Cathedral
· Fernando Air Base Chapel
· Quiapo Church
· Mt. Carmel in Quezon City
· St. Jude in Malacanang
· PGH Chapel
· San Isidro Church
· Aglipayan Church in front of College of Pharmacy UP Manila

I need to hear God’s Word. I love God. He’s been good to me. He’s been gentle. He’s blessed me with so much. He’s been nice. He’s always on my side. I am really thnakful for His love. I am grateful.
