Bulletin No.: 067 Thursday, November 29, 2018 GOD’S WORDS FOR TODAY (Lk. 21:20-28) The Holy Gospel according to St. Luke Jesus said to his disciples: "When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, know that its desolation is at hand. Then those in Judea must flee to the mountains. Let those within the city escape from it, and let those in the countryside not enter the city, for these days are the time of punishment when all the Scriptures are fulfilled. Woe to pregnant women and nursing mothers in those days, for a terrible calamity will come upon the earth and a wrathful judgment upon this people. They will fall by the edge of the sword and be taken as captives to all the Gentiles; and Jerusalem will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. "There will be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars, and on earth nations will be in dismay, perplexed by the roaring of the sea and the waves. People will die of fright in anticipation of what is coming upon the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. But when these signs begin to happen, stand erect and raise your heads because your redemption is at hand." REFLECTION: Are you afraid of the end times? The talk of end times always sends shivers to many most especially to those who do not have yet a personal relationship with Jesus. This topic is something that they always want to avoid as much as possible. However, if God is in your heart; who can be against you? If God is with you nothing can distress you no matter how horrifying the signs of the times are. PRAYER: Lord Jesus, increase our eagerness to do your will and help us to know the saving power of your love. Amen.

Remember the tag line “Kahit Maliit, Basta’s Malimit, Patungong Langit” From the GS Social Studies Department HISTORY CHANNEL Bonifacio Day Celebrated on November 30th in the Philippines, Bonifacio Day is a national holiday that celebrates the birthday of Andrés Bonifacio. 2 History Andrés Bonifacio was born on November 30th, 1863 in Tondo, Manila. In 1892, he founded the Katipunan, a revolutionary secret society whose goal was to liberate the Philippines from Spanish colonial rule. The Katipunan had four major objectives: 1) To develop solidarity between members, 2) To secure Philippine independence by revolution, 3) To unite Filipinos into one nation and 4)To establish the Philippines as a republic. In 1896, the Spanish learned of the existence of the Katipunan. This would directly lead to the events which started the Philippine Revolution.
