Sa pagdaragdag ng Simbahan ng mga tomo sa seryeng ito, magkakaroon kayo ng koleksyon ng mga sanggu- niang aklat ng ebanghelyo sa inyong tahanan. Tampok sa aklat na ito ang mga turo ni Pangulong Spencer W. Kimball, na naglingkod bilang Pangulo ng Ang Simbahan ni Jesucristo ng mga Banal sa mga Huling Araw mula Disyembre 30, 1973, hanggang Nobyembre 5, 1985. Personal na Pag-aaral Habang pinag-aaralan mo ang mga turo ni Pangulong Kimball, hangarin ang inspirasyon ng Espiritu. Tandaan ang pangako ni Nephi: “Siya na naghahanap nang masigasig ay makasusumpong; at ang mga hiwaga ng Diyos ay ilalahad sa kanila, sa pamamagi- tan ng kapangyarihan ng Espiritu Santo” (1 Nephi 10:19). Simulan ang iyong pag-aaral sa panalangin, at patuloy na mana- langin sa iyong puso habang ikaw ay nagbabasa. Sa hulihan ng bawat kabanata, makikita mo ang mga tanong at sanggunian sa banal na kasulatan na makatutulong para mauna- waan at maisagawa mo ang mga turo ni Pangulong Kimball. Rebyuhin muna ang mga ito bago mo simulang basahin ang ka- banata. Pag-isipan ding mabuti ang sumusunod na patnubay: • Hanapin ang mahahalagang salita at parirala. Kung may maki- kita kang salita na hindi mo nauunawaan, gumamit ng dik- syunaryo o iba pang sanggunian para mas maunawaang mabuti ang ibig sabihin nito. vii PANIMULA • Isipin kung ano ang ibig sabihin ng mga turo ni Pangulong Kimball. Maaari mong markahan ang bawat salita at mga pa- ngungusap na aantig sa iyong puso’t isipan. • Pag-isipang mabuti ang mga naging karanasan mo na may ki- nalaman sa mga turo ni Pangulong Kimball. • Isiping mabuti kung paano naaangkop sa iyo ang mga turo ni Pangulong Kimball. Isipin kung ano ang kaugnayan ng mga turo sa iyong mga problema o katanungan. Magpasiya kung ano ang iyong gagawin bilang resulta ng natutuhan mo. Pagtuturo mula sa Aklat na Ito Ang aklat na ito ay maaaring gamitin sa pagtuturo sa tahanan o sa simbahan. Ang sumusunod na patnubay ay makatutulong sa iyo: Pagtuunan ng Pansin ang mga Salita ni Pangulong Kimball at ang mga Banal na Kasulatan Iniutos ng Panginoon na tayo ay “wala nang ibang bagay [na dapat ituro] kundi ang mga isinulat ng mga propeta at apostol, at ang yaong mga itinuro sa [atin] ng Mang-aaliw sa pamamagi- tan ng panalangin na may pananampalataya” (D at T 52:9). Ang tungkulin mo ay tulungan ang iba na maunawaan at maisa- gawa ang ebanghelyo sa pamamagitan ng mga turo ni Pangulong Kimball at ng mga banal na kasulatan. Huwag isantabi ang aklat na ito o maghanda ng mga lesson mula sa iba pang mga materyal. Ilaan ang malaking bahagi ng lesson sa pagbabasa ng mga turo ni Pangulong Kimball sa aklat na ito at talakayin ang kahulugan at aplikasyon ng mga ito. Hikayatin ang mga kasali na pag-aralan ang mga kabanata bago magkita-kita sa araw ng Linggo at dalhin sa simbahan ang aklat. Kapag ginawa nila ito, mas magiging handa sila sa pagsali at mas mapalalakas ang bawat isa. Hangarin ang Patnubay ng Espiritu Santo Habang nagdarasal ka para humingi ng tulong at masigasig na naghahanda, gagabayan ka ng Espiritu Santo sa iyong mga pag- sisikap. Tutulungan ka Niyang bigyang-diin ang mga bahagi ng viii PANIMULA bawat kabanata na hihikayat sa iba na unawain at ipamuhay ang ebanghelyo. Kapag ikaw ay nagtuturo, magdasal sa iyong puso na samahan ng kapangyarihan ng Espiritu ang iyong mga salita at ang mga ta- lakayan sa klase. Sinabi ni Nephi, “Kapag ang isang tao ay nagsa- salita sa pamamagitan ng kapangyarihan ng Espiritu Santo, ang kapangyarihan ng Espiritu Santo ang nagdadala nito sa puso ng mga anak ng tao” (2 Nephi 33:1; tingnan din sa D at T 50:13–22). Maghandang Magturo Ang mga kabanata sa aklat na ito ay isinaayos para tulungan kang maghanda sa pagtuturo. Isaisip rin ang sumusunod na mga patnubay: 1. Pag-aralan ang kabanata. May panalanging pag-aralan ang kabanata para magkaroon ng tiwala sa pagkaunawa mo sa mga turo ni Pangulong Kimball. Makapagtuturo ka nang may higit na katapatan at kapangyarihan kapag ikaw ay personal na na- impluwensyahan ng kanyang mga salita (tingnan sa D at T 11:21). Habang nagbabasa, isaisip ang mga pangangailangan ng mga tinuturuan mo. Maaari mong markahan ang mga ba- haging inaakala mong makatutulong sa kanila. Pansinin ang mga naka-bold na subheading ng kabanata. Nakabalangkas sa mga ito ang mahahalagang punto sa kabanata. 2. Magpasiya kung aling mga bahagi ang gagamitin. Ang nila- laman ng bawat kabanata ay higit kaysa makakaya mong ituro sa isang lesson. Sa halip na sikaping talakayin ang buong ka- banata, may panalanging piliin ang mga bahaging sa palagay mo ay makatutulong na mabuti sa mga tinuturuan mo. 3. Magpasiya kung paano sisimulan ang lesson. Para makuha ang pansin sa simula ng lesson, maaari kang magbahagi ng per- sonal na karanasan o ipabasa sa mga kasali ang isang kuwento sa simula ng kabanata o tingnan ang isang larawan sa kabanata. Pagkatapos ay maaari mong itanong, “Ano ang itinuturo ng ku- wento (o larawang) ito tungkol sa paksa ng kabanata?” Ang iba pang opsiyon sa pagsisimula ng lesson ay pagbabasa ng banal na kasulatan o ng isang sipi mula sa kabanata o kaya’y pag-awit ix PANIMULA ng himno. Mabuting ideya rin ang ipaalam sa klase kung ano ang mahahalagang punto ng lesson. 4. Magpasiya kung paano makahihikayat ng talakayan. Dito mo dapat iukol ang karamihan sa oras ng lesson. Rebyuhin ang mga mungkahi kung paano mangasiwa ng mabubuting talaka- yan sa mga pahina xi–xii ng aklat na ito. Maaari mong gamitin ang mga tanong mula sa “Mga Mungkahi sa Pag-aaral at Pagtuturo” na nasa hulihan ng kabanata. Maaaring ikaw ang maghanda ng sarili mong mga katanungan. Magtanong ng mga bagay na makatutulong sa mga tinuturuan mo: • Alamin kung ano ang itinuturo. Ang ganitong mga uri ng ka- tanungan ay nakatutulong sa klase na mahanap at maging pamilyar sa partikular na impormasyon na itinuturo ni Pangulong Kimball. Halimbawa, matapos tukuyin ang isang partikular na siping-banggit, maaari mong itanong, “Ano ang ilan sa mga mahahalagang salita o parirala sa siping- banggit na ito?” o “Ano ang paksa ng siping-banggit na ito?” • Isiping mabuti ang kahulugan. Ang ganitong mga uri ng ka- tanungan ay nakatutulong para maunawaang mabuti ng kla- se ang mga turo ni Pangulong Kimball. Halimbawa, “Bakit kaya mahalaga ang turong ito?” o “Ano ang mga naiisip o na- darama ninyo tungkol sa siping-banggit na ito?” o “Ano ang ibig sabihin sa inyo ng turong ito?” • Magbahagi ng mga karanasan. Hinihikayat ng mga tanong na ito ang klase na iugnay sa kanilang personal na buhay ang sinabi ni Pangulong Kimball. Halimbawa, “Anong mga karanasan ninyo ang maiuugnay ninyo sa sinabi ni Pangulong Kimball?” • Ipamuhay ang itinuturo. Ang mga tanong na ito ay nakatu- tulong sa mga miyembro ng klase na mag-isip ng mga para- an kung paano sila makapamumuhay nang naaayon sa mga turo ni Pangulong Kimball. Halimbawa, “Ano ang hinihika- yat ni Pangulong Kimball na gawin natin? Sa paanong para- an natin maipamumuhay ang kanyang sinabi?” 5.

  • Women in Filipino Religion-Themed Films
    Review of Women’s Studies 20 (1-2): 33-65 WOMEN IN FILIPINO RELIGION-THEMED FILMS Erika Jean Cabanawan Abstract This study looks at four Filipino films—Mga Mata ni Angelita, Himala, Ang Huling Birhen sa Lupa, Santa Santita—that are focused on the discourse of religiosity and featured a female protagonist who imbibes the image and role of a female deity. Using a feminist framework, it analyzes the subgenre’s connection and significance to the Filipino consciousness of a female God, and the imaging of the Filipino woman in the context of a hybrid religion. The study determines how religion is used in Philippine cinema, and whether or not it promotes enlightenment. The films’ heavy reference to religious and biblical images is also examined as strategies for myth-building. his study looks at the existence of Filipino films that are focused T on the discourse of religiosity, featuring a female protagonist who imbibes the image and assumes the role of a female deity. The films included are Mga Mata ni Angelita (The Eyes of Angelita, 1978, Lauro Pacheco), Himala (Miracle, 1982, Ishmael Bernal), Ang Huling Birhen sa Lupa (The Last Virgin, 2002, Joel Lamangan) and Santa Santita (Magdalena, 2004, Laurice Guillen). In the four narratives, the female protagonists eventually incur supernatural powers after a perceived apparition of the Virgin Mary or the image of the Virgin Mary, and incurring stigmata or the wounds of Christ. Using a feminist framework, this paper through textual analysis looks at the Filipino woman in this subgenre, as well as those images’ connection and significance to the Filipino consciousness of a female God.

  • Elder Massimo De Feo: ‘Welcome to the Lord’S Temple in Rome’
    Elder Massimo De Feo: ‘Welcome to the Lord’s Temple in Rome’ Elder Massimo De Feo and his wife, Loredana Galeandro, pose for photos at the Church Office Building in Salt Lake City Monday, April 4, 2016. April 3, 2016, will forever be a historic day for members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter- day Saints in Italy. For the first time, one of their own was called to be a senior Church leader. While Elder Massimo De Feo’s recent assignment as a General Authority Seventy signaled a key moment in Church history, his own introduction to the Church was far more commonplace. When missionaries knocked on the De Feo family’s door in Taranto in 1970, 9-year-old Massimo and his older brother Alberto were taught the gospel and were later baptized. While Massimo and Alberto’s parents never joined the Church, they were supportive of their sons as they became active in their new faith. “Our parents never accepted the gospel, but they felt it was good and they felt good about their two children growing up in the gospel with good principles,” Elder De Feo said. Alberto and Massimo’s beliefs were challenged outside the home. They were the only members in their school in a community with deep Catholic roots and centuries-old traditions. The brothers made it a point to avoid contention and looked for opportunities to explain The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with others. Although the Church in Taranto was small, Massimo said leaders, teachers and youth advisers always made him feel he belonged.

    PIONEERS IN EVERY LAND LATTER-DAY SAINTS IN A LEGACY Italy OF FAITH By Lia McClanahan he history of the Church in Italy begins in New Testament times, when the capital of the Roman Empire was home to a group of faithful Christians. T The Bible doesn’t record who originally took the gospel to Rome, but a branch of the Church had been there for “many years” (Romans 15:23) when the Apostle Paul sent a letter to the Romans in about a.d. 57. Paul described the Christians in Rome as “full of goodness” (15:14). He was acquainted with some of them, and his epistle contained a long list of beloved Saints to whom he sent greetings (see 16:1–15). Paul extolled the faith of those Christians and told them that he prayed fervently for them. He longed to see them and hoped God would grant that he might visit them soon (see 1:8–15). When he did at last go to Rome, it was as a prisoner, but the Church members’ anticipation of his arrival was such that some of the brethren traveled 43 miles (69 km) to meet him at the Appii forum. Seeing them, “he thanked God, and took cour- age” (Acts 28:15). Later, Paul suffered martyrdom in Rome, where Christians were severely perse- cuted by Nero and other emperors. Eventually the Church fell into apostasy, but the early Roman Saints left a legacy of faith at the center of the empire, setting the stage for Christianity to spread throughout the world.
