MEA-UMYF says: We SPEAK!

The Manila Episcopal Area-Wide
Christmas Institute 2010

On December 26-30, 2010, the UMYF from

the eleven Annual Conferences of the Manila
Episcopal Area will come together to be part of the
MEA-Wide Christmas Institute 2010. This is the first
ever Christmas Institute that will gather the youth of
the Episcopal Area. With it’s theme: “We S.P.E.A.K!
(Seek, Pray, Empower, Act, and Keep)”, five
thousand delegates are expected to join the
historic event at the Cavite State University, Indang,
Cavite.

Rationale
A Future with Hope: Opening to Hope,
Planting and Nurturing. This quadrennial sub theme
is by itself a message to our church that whatever
passion for serving we may have, it must be
interpreted as a life-giving mission for the church
and society. In our journey of mission as faithful
servants of God, it is a continuing challenge to bring
hope and transformation to the world. If we are
setting our eyes on the reality, we can truly say that

there is something wrong – the church scenario is just
epitomizing the macro-situation of our society. In the context
of self-interested paradigm, corruption and desire for power
and influence are very evident in the church and society.
Thus, creating change is very important in this is very
important in this life-process.
For fifty years since its naming, the Manila Episcopal
Area of the Philippines Central Conference dwells with its
mission to be faithful in the ministry of the church. Seeking for
God’s guidance, being faithful to Him and letting God’s will
to prevail are fundamental components to continue the
legacy of carrying out the mission and vision of the church.
On the other hand, Christmas Institute is a significant
event to every young people of the United Methodist
Church. If there is one thing we are proud of, it is our institute
that continues to transform young souls towards God. It is a
venue for fellowship, transformation and empowerment.
In this light, the resounding call to provide life-
changing events like Christmas Institute in this historical
course of our church becomes more relevant. There is a
need to uphold a redemptive spirit that provides a sense of
direction to continue to bring unity and vision of a future with
hope in our hopelessly fragmented and alienated situation.

The Challenge Continues…

The recent 2010 National Elections brings into
focus two differing realities – that of the end of
rule of impunity of the former president and the
beginning of smashed promises of the new
one.
the gap between the many poor and the rich
few continue to aggravate in our nation? Is this
only the reason why the former president has
amassed so much wealth and has identified
herself and her family with much of anomalies?

President Noynoy’s promises during his first
State of the Nation’s Address (SONA) have
dwell in a hopeful impression for the people. As
he proclaims his promises of new path of hope,
he urged to put on our mind that corruption is
the root cause of all evil in the political arena
of our land. But is this really the only reason why
In the spotlight is a remarkable statement of
President Noynoy during his first SONA, “This is
the straight path.” He said that to be faithful to
the public servant’s sworn oath to serve the
country honestly is what he identified as the
straight path. On the other hand, is the
crooked path wherein he characterized that

What is there to Celebrate?
In Anticipation of the First State of the Nation Address of P-Noy

A
fter the presidential inauguration last June 30 and the release of a survey showing his
popularity rating at +83, we can assume that many Filipinos and most of the world,
anticipate P-Noy's pronouncements and plans for the next six years. His proclamations in his
inaugural address to follow the most basic of rules such as stopping for the traffic light and refusing
to use the 'wang-wang' and his grand declaration, “Kayo (the people) ang boss ko,” have been
met with approval. The attitude has been one of celebration. But what is there to celebrate?
II Kings 5:1-18 tells the story of the healing
of Naaman, the victorious commander of
the King of Aram, from leprosy. He and his
people are enemies of the Israelite people
and had in fact taken a young girl from
her family and home in Israel as a booty of
war. Without a doubt, she is just one
among many. Despite her situation, she
proposes healing for Commander
Naaman, saying, “If only my lord were with
the prophet who is in Samaria! He would
cure him of his leprosy.”(v.3) Her desire for
his healing brings together the most
powerful men in the land. The King of the
Arameans and the King of the Israelites,
despite their distrust of each other, put
aside their fighting to cure a military man
image from arkibongbayan.org
from leprosy. At a time of war, two political
leaders create an alliance for one man. A third man, the prophet of God, Elisha, consummates this
act. Showing no prejudice against a commander who had killed his people, he summons the
commander to come to Israel, saying, “Let him come to me that he may learn that there is a
prophet in Israel.” Then orders him, “Go, wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall be
restored and you shall be clean.” In this act of healing, Commander Naaman proclaims,“Now I
know that there is no God in all the earth except in Israel.”(v. 15)
In the healing of Naaman, we celebrate with the two kings and the prophet. And we forget the
cry of a slave-girl-child. Perhaps, when she voiced out the healing through Elisha, she envisioned
her own liberation from slavery. For how can she wish for the healing of her enemy and not want
freedom for her oppressed self. The most powerful men in two kingdoms and the most powerful
prophet of God came together to heal a man of privilege and yet do nothing for a slave-child.
What is there to celebrate?
What does it mean for the slave-girl-child to be taken from her home? Were her parents and what
does it mean for the slave-girl-child to be taken from her home? Were her parents and siblings

destroyed to subdue her people? Were they dispossessed of and driven from the lands that they

 have lived off for generations? Who is the nameless and
forgotten slave-girl-child among us? In Old Testament times
and today, she is not one but many. And they ask, what is
there to celebrate?

Who are the kings amongst us celebrating? GMA has been

elected to Congress and has already formalized her pursuit
of Charter Change. How do we seek justice for the
anomalies and human rights violations during her
presidency? P-Noy has been hounded by the issue of
Hacienda Luisita Massacre and agrarian reform even before
the elections but he has not made any commitments. How do we make him accountable? And
since his inauguration, four political activists have been killed, and the Morong 43 and many others
continue to be political prisoners. Who shall give them justice? P-Noy was explicit in his inaugural
message, “there can be no reconciliation if there is no justice!” There can be no celebration until
there is justice!

Naaman needed healing. Yes. But the slave-girl-

child needed liberation. As “there can be no millions of Filipinos do.
The measure of true celebration is liberation.
There is reason to
reconciliation if there is no celebration when the
Morong 43 are set free; as justice!” There can be no well as all political

when Oplan Bantay Laya is junked and militarization in the rural and urban communities grounds

under the Hague Joint Declaration, are resumed. There is reason to celebrate when CARPER is
junked and the PhP 125 across the board wage increase is implemented. There is reason to
celebrate when the RP-US joint military exercises under the VFA is abrogated. The measure of true
celebration is when those who need God the most no longer cry out for human rights, just wages,
land, healthcare, education, clean water and most basic of needs.

The measure of true celebration is liberation.

the personal interest is the priority of the
leaders.
For nine years of impunity and injustices under
the former government, the Filipino people
have long been weighed down by a
demoralizing culture of corruption, deception,
injustice and exploitation. So with so much
resolve and determination, it is the people’s
choice to engage in the process of choosing
our leaders last May 2010 and yearn for
significant transformation in their economic
lives.
Lurking in the shadows is the many challenges
of the Filipino people to our newly elected
leaders. As President Noynoy stated his plans
and aspirations for the Filipinos, the majority of
the people have so much hope on the straight
path he is imparting.
In this time of accelerating deterioration of the
national economic, political and cultural
situation, it is expected that the people will
continue to challenge the current state to take
alternative paradigm for a transformed Filipino
nation. It is integral that we continue to
challenge our leaders to immerse in the lives of
the ordinary people. Our task has just begun.

We voted and guarded our votes but the
responsibility of challenging our leaders must
carry on the people-oriented principles toward
the straight path he’s saying.
Moreover, as young people of faith, it is our
imperative to be vigilant and critical especially
in our times. The current order of things walks us
through some critical and urgent concerns that
challenge our prophetic role amidst an
alienated situation. We must uphold the
interest of the majority as they proclaim their
shared hopes and aspirations. We must be the
servant of the living God who can see the
afflictions of people, who can hear their cries
and who can come down to deliver them from
their slave masters. (Ex.3)
In spite of everything, our people deserve a
society ran by God-fearing and righteous
leaders who are devoted to toil for the nation’s
liberation from horrible and atrocious
inequality, poverty and injustice. Let us speak
the resounding challenge of the people that
was echoed through the words of Prophet
Isaiah in Chapter 32:1-8, “A king and his leaders
will rule with justice. They will be a place of
safety from stormy winds, a stream in the
desert, and a rock that gives shade from the
heat of the sun. then everyone who has eyes
will open them and see, and those who have
ears will pay attention. All who are impatient
will take time to think; everyone who stutters will
talk clearly. Fools will no longer be highly
respected, and crooks won’t be given positions
of honor. Fools talk foolishness. They always
make plans to do sinful things, to lie about the
LORD, to let the hungry starve, and to keep
water from those who are thirsty. Cruel people
tell lies – they do evil things, and make cruel
plans to destroy the poor and needy, even
when they beg for justice. But helpful people
can always be trusted to make helpful plans.”

Without a glimpse of penetrating light,
Under a hyper pitch of darkness on
flight,
My body shimmers on cold so tight,
Every flesh lingers on evil’s might.
Desolated by fear clasping my bones,
Traveling on darkness so all alone,
Crippled by sorrow, hope had flown,
What shall I do, shall face my tomb?
Devastated and weak I cried a loud,
Give me help and make me proud,
Tired of myself and the Evils around,
Somebody save me from the terror I found!
“Here I am my Son” a voice did sound,
“Follow me, and restore your crown,
Come drink my blood and eat my flesh,
Everything about you will be refreshed”.
Without hesitation I was so blessed,
I followed his teachings, I ate him
fresh,
Light and joy came in on a rush,
Everything behind me is thrown on trash.
“Who are you sir who gave me life?
What have you done to receive my price?”
“I am the Lamb they call CHRIST
I gave mine to save your life”

The world entices me with greed and rage
Yet, my Shepherd makes me use of the law

Fear baits me to lose grip with my Master
Yet, at twilight, I ran back to him with the
guilt I suffer
My time on earth swiftly vanishes like a

Yet, He aids me to live this day like it would
be my last
I still have days to work, just when my flesh
will dictate
Yet, I know I must act now and never
fluctuate
Some will undervalue and despise my youth
Yet, the Scripture tells me a truth
To be a paradigm in word, in conversation,

In faith and in purity and become all he
