Wedding at Cana

Married couples have the opportunity to renew their marriage vows at the Cana Catholic Wedding Church. Cana is the place where Jesus performed His first miracle at a wedding feast by changing water into wine.

Remembering Moments with Carmzie

i made a cascading album for my sister-in-law to remember our travel together.

 we Shopped for souvenirs in Bethlehem where you will find authentic olive wood rosaries, statues and icons and have them blessed with Fr. Fernando Suarez, during the pilgrimage.

Married couples will have the chance to renew their wedding vows at the Church of the First Miracle in Cana, the site where Jesus performed His first miracle at a wedding feast by changing water into wine.

we Prayerfully retrace the stations of the cross along the Via Dolorosa (Latin for Way of Grief) which ends at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre or Calvary where He died and was laid on the tomb.

Sometimes "travel" can mean a personal journey or trip that you take as a person.


I was truly grateful and blessed to go on a pilgrimage tour with Fr. Fernando Suarez.

• we took  a dip in the Dead Sea and put mud on our skin. This black mud is known to be therapeutic and does wonders for the skin.

it was 9 Day Healing Pilgrimage Retreat to the Holy Land. we saw the actual places that you read in the Bible came alive in the Holy Land

• Daily masses and inspiring homilies were given by Fr. Fernando Suarez, MMMP a renowned healing priest.

after Holy Land we spent 3 days in Dubai and 1 day in Abu Dhabi.  my younger brother celebrated his birthday at the Burj Al Arab Hotel - the most luxurious hotel in the World. It's a once in a lifetime experience. (as for me, i still prefer the food variety at the Spiral restaurant.)

Project Life: Halloween

This weekend I decided to make Project Life Halloween. 


We had a super fun Monster Mash at The Manila Collectible Co. yesterday. Face painting, storytelling, dead man's dig and lots and lots of candy!!!



To simplify and finish faster, i decided to follow Becky Higgins Style of just photos, Halloween journaling cards from Lilypad



and writing a paragraph or two,  to remember what happened during that day.

A Pilgrim's Prayer

If some things do not happen as they are scheduled,

Lord may I remember that I am a pilgrim not a Tourist!

If I should get tired and inclined to become short tempered

Lord may I remember that I am a pilgrim not a Tourist!

If my meal in a foreign country may not be to my particular liking,

Lord may I remember that I am a pilgrim not a Tourist!

If any delays should occur and I should become anxious,

Lord may I remember that I am a pilgrim not a Tourist!

If some other pilgrim is making noise so that I cannot hear the guide,

Lord may I remember that I am a pilgrim not a Tourist!

When I ask that person to be a bit more quiet If someone takes a better seat or more choice place,

Lord may I remember that I am a pilgrim not a Tourist!

If I find myself last in line or waiting, Lord may I remember that I am a pilgrim not a Tourist!

If the person in front of me buys the last item which I really wanted

Lord may I remember that I am a pilgrim not a Tourist!

If I should get a chance to help another person, who always seems to be annoying me,

Lord may I remember that I am a pilgrim not a Tourist!

If someone is always the "last one on the bus" and I am always on time,

Lord may I remember that I am a pilgrim not a Tourist!

But Lord especially let me remember that what I find objectionable in another is really what you oft times find objectionable in me

And let me remember this and forgive the other,

As you are continually forgiving me!

      Amen
