Peter's Story: Standing Firm in God's Foundation
"I was born and brought up in an extended type of family in Dumaguete City, Philippines with a family of six: my half sister, brother-in-law, three nephews and myself being the adopted son. They had treated me like real son and provided all my basic necessities.
The year 2009 was the best year of my life. It was then I finished my Bachelor's Degree in Nursing. The following year the Lord showered His blessings when I passed the nursing examination. This lit the flame of desire to return back to LCP where I had finished my preschool and learned the values that shaped me into who I am today.
I was particularly interested in the LCP Handclasp Program where I can put in use everything I have learned and hone my skills as a nurse. My work as a Handclasp Coordinator offers great satisfaction, contentment and pleasure in serving the less fortunate children. It is then, said Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me". Indeed, this was what I grasped from my happy days of preschool here in LCP. There was great emphasis that with God nothing is impossible. He is our Great Mentor who gives us strength in hopeless times to make impossible things possible.
This has been my guide in every case that I have handled. I always bear in mind that God uses me as an instrument to show how much He loves His people. I do not grow weary in serving because I know that my God is greater than any obstacles in this world. This thought has been the strength of my dear Teacher, Ms. Mendez, when she taught her dear students in the preschool."
Maybe you can't save the world...
But you can change at least one child's life forever.
