Do you love the Philippines? (to all my contacts, online stores, and other networks who love our nation)

Dear Friends!
 
Here are sample pages from the book, "Ako ay Pilipino," the very first project of a movement that was recently (2 months ago) founded by a missionary couple who happened to be friends of mine.

The movement, Ako ay Pilipino Noon at Ngayon, is more than just another patriotic propaganda but it grounded on a belief that at the core a movement for transforming a nation, should be God and our divine destiny, and not just sheer humanistic zeal.

Quoting what the movement's founders said, "We believe that this country has a great destiny and is capable of being great... we understand that this message needs to be revealed to the masses. It needs to be realized. It needs to be proclaimed, sparking hope and light in the midst of the present uncertainty."

Thus, the book was launched as a first step to pursuing this vision.





The book traces "the richness of the Philippine history to understand how we can move forward from here..." It seeks to "change the mindset of Filipinos today, declaring their true identity as God intended them to be, and thus help fulfill the destiny that is theirs to claim."

But the book is but a launching pad, through which we hope many would begin to catch the vision and begin running with us.



The movement imagines total media invasion through short films, music, events, and what you have's.

Quoting again from the movement's founders, "[o]bviously, one single book cannot answer all of these questions. But as you hear about the rich history of this nation - where we have come and where we are going - we believe that God will begin to open your eyes to the bigger picture of the Philippines' place in the world today."

Friends, let us love our nation passionately. There is no better time to do that than now! It is my hope that you would support this movement by sharing this book to everyone you know. Let's help change the mindset of our nation one page at a time. :)

Thank you guys for your time and interest and God richly bless you!
