Yesterday was the 27th anniversary of the Couples for Christ. It was already 1:30 am when arrived at home and was so sleepy that's why I am posting this entry just now.
I served as a runner for the CFC anniversary. I was assigned at the stage left. Call time was 10 am but I arrived at 1 pm because of some random reasons.. I was shocked when I saw who I am working with. Standing there on the stage left was DIANE. OMG! I thought she was not going to serve in ycom again. But it was okay, through this, she can forget that she hates ycom. And another shocking thing is, Ate Grace was there. She's going to be the Stage Manager in the stage left. so, Oh no.. I'm doomed.
All through out the celebration we were running here and there. Doing stuff and other errands. So, okay, the celebration was running smoothly. People were dancing the papaya dance and another dance also.
The parade started exactly at 4 pm. Then the rain poured down hardly and the electricity when down. The equipments were grounded and the connection went out. The 7 International Council and the hosts were all soaked wet. The electricity totally went out. So we were instructed to go down in the field and announce that we were going to pray the rosary so that the people won't think that the program and the celebration was cancelled. Amidst the heavy rain, the production team went in the vast crowd to tell the people that we were going to pray. And so we did the prayer and the heavens heard us, the rain stopped . We worshipped God for what had happened.
We were all soaking wet. Our feet were also wet and our pants were like rugs. We thought we were already going to faint.
After all that had happened, the celebration went well and the CFC community were all overwhelmed of everything that happened. I look forward into serving again in big events. God just used us, exhausted us and filled us with overwhelming experience.
