Dear Jeannie, That is wonderful here allot of people live off of very little. Here in Baguio is not so bad this is a place where most of the money is so it is nice but if you go out to the province areas people use what ever they can find just to put a shelter from the rain. Often the children grow up in a very dirty and poor conditions. Everyone that supports a child here God bless them because a little goes a long way. Sorry to say some fall through the cracks and you will see many young children in the streets begging for just something to eat. School is a treasure for these children they have excellent schools here as education is highly important. Many go to college if the family can afford as one member graduates often they are well trained and very hard working so many companies in other countries love to hire them. Nursing is the most common, my wife is a nurse as I told you. My one brother in law is a commander in the military. He graduated from PMA and hopefully he will get into politics here as he is a very principled and honorable man of character. Coruption is a big problem here and he does want to do something about that. I pray that this day will come and the Philippines will be one great nation. The people are great I love the Filipino people. It is unbelievable that even I grew up in a supposidly free America there is much more freedom here as it was patterned after us many years ago. Sad that our country has fallen to Godlessness and turned away from the Lord, the Lord hates abortion, homosexual behavior and lose morals. Despite what many say this country has a moral charector yes there is some bad places and that established themselves around the US bases before and still our a play ground for foreigners. As a whole the country is very moral even though not all but liberalism has not raised its ugly head hear much. This link explains I write for triond at times

One thing is good is that plants grow well here being we get allot of rain and being volcanic the ground is fertile. The have the best vegetables grown here in the mountain region. My father in law has a farm that grows mangoes and I love them they are the best fruit.

Thanks again for your supporting the children here. Maybe I can reach out to some that desperately are in need and recommend them for support if you like.

Thank you Dear Jeannie, I will do that. The think is here their is interruption in the internet. Right now it just come online again.

What I want to do is set up an exclusive site showing our work here this has been a wonderful sharing of Christ and his love. We work to feed the people first as this is a poor country and often children are forced to beg in the streets instead get an education. I work with the church on the ministry to the PMA(Philippine Military Academy) cadets
here in Baguio City but have also worked with the poor children helping them with their needs. PMA is a great ministry as the academy is patterned after West Point and most graduates reach high rank in the military here. Best start is with the leadership and I being a veteran can well relate to these cadets. Its great work but often our funding is very little. Thanks that is a great idea. I will work on a site to do just that. Please do pray for us as we will travel back to the US next month. This will be a visit only but my wife may be working Texas she is a nurse so if she does get the job we will be moving there next year. I will though pass this on to those that will carry on our work here so this will be in good hands.

God Bless you

Heh-heh. He is a boy. I am a girl. I know my name sounds unisex. Thanks so much. It means a lot to me. We never have come across any substantial racism about our relationship except what we see the mainstream media calling us these days. it truly is sad but it will not effect us or our daughter.

I agree Jeannie. I think that Obama and his cronies do not want racial unity or they wouldn't bring race into where it does not belong ALL the time. I consider my fiance's African-American background a rich ethnic culture, just like I consider my Irish-American history. My ancestors were treated horribly when they first came to this country but I am not bitter about what happened. It didn't happen to me and we, as Americans, are resilient and can do whatever we want, no matter our background, even become President.

Jeannie, I checked your page, you are still members of the following groups:

Let me know if you are still having any problems posting in The Angry Mob group or anywhere else. NING is having a few issues, but nothing like blocking people out of anywhere as far as I know.

Thanks, and let me know.

Please go ahead and forward it Jeanne...
I can post it to my website... but nobody else can..

Thanks.
