⚠️ Kung walang Senate coup bukas, Risa Hontiveros’ Health Committee goes to Bong Go.

Bam Aquino’s Education Committee goes to Robin Padilla.

Kiko Pangilinan’s Agriculture Committee goes to Imee Marcos.

Libre barena, butas ang batas.

Que horror! 🙀

[Leila de Lima @manayleila]

Get your facts straight, SP Alan!

Magkaiba kami ni Sen. Bato dela Rosa. Kusa akong humarap at nagpaaresto sa mga arresting authorities noong Feb. 24, 2017.

Hindi ako nagtago, hindi ako nagpakaduwag. Hindi ako nagpakupkop, at lalong hindi ako nagdulot ng gulo sa Senado.

Huwag kayong magpakalat ng fake news para lang pagtakpan at protektahan ang duwag at pugante!

[Ericson Julian @evj26]

@meralco Salamat sa inyong pagtugon. Sa ngayon ay bumalik na ang kuryente sa aming lugar. Salamat sa mabilis na aksyon.

[Ericson Julian @evj26]

@meralco unexpected power interruption at San Dionisio, Paranaque City. Any reason behind it? And when will the power be restored?

The Little Sisters Disciples of the Lamb is the first contemplative religious community in the world to welcome nuns with Down syndrome. The community is located in France.

Sino ang di magngingitngit sa galit?

P293,000-P334,000 kada buwan ang sahod ng isang senador. Di pa kasama ang allowances/etc nila.

Tapos ang 'lowest rank lawyer' na 'to eh puro katraydoran ang ginagawa.

Kaya sa susunod na eleksyon, gamitin ang utak sa pagpili ng mga iboboto!

DENR must be audited. Bureau of Mines must be audited. Nakakalbo na ang mga bundok, kinukuha pa ang lupa at pinapadala sa China for processing. Political dynasties are raking in the cash while the rest of the people are still poor. Something’s really wrong.

In a dream St. Charbel operated on her and healed her: the miracle that changed Nohad El Shami’s life🇻🇦

On the 22nd of every month, thousands of people around the world unite in prayer, fasting, and celebration in honor of a miracle that moved Lebanon. At the heart of this devotion is Nohad El Shami, a mother of twelve who, in 1993, was healed of incurable paralysis through the intercession of, the mystical Maronite monk known as the “miracle worker.”

Nohad, a native of Mezarib in Mount Lebanon, was 55 years old when she was diagnosed with hemiplegia, a paralysis that affected half of her body due to blocked cerebral arteries. Medical science offered no hope. “There was no treatment possible,” the doctors declared. The situation was irreversible.

In desperation, his eldest son, Saad, traveled to the hermitage of St. Charbel in Annaya, also in Lebanon, where the saint spent 23 years in silence, prayer, and penance. There he collected consecrated oil and earth from the saint’s tomb to bring to his mother, imploring a miracle.

For days, Nohad remained in bed, suffering constant and acute pain. Then, on the night of January 21, 1993, he had an extraordinary dream: he saw himself receiving Holy Communion from the hands of St. Charbel during a Mass at the hermitage.

The miracle that gave birth to a monthly devotion.

What happened the following morning would mark his life and the history of devotion to the Lebanese saint. In her dream, she saw two monks (St. Charbel and St. Maron) at her bedside. One of them was holding her, while the other was touching her neck as if he were operating on her. Upon awakening, Nohad felt something different. To her amazement, she could move completely, she had been healed! Two incisions were visible on her neck, a sign of the divine mystery she had just experienced.

The following night, St. Charbel again visited her in a dream. He told her, “I performed the surgery so that people may see and return to the faith. I ask you to visit my hermitage in Annaya on the 22nd of every month and attend Mass regularly for the rest of your life.”

Since then, thousands of people have followed Nohad’s example. Every month, on the 22nd, faithful from all over the world; Catholics, Orthodox, and even Muslims, make a spiritual or personal pilgrimage to Annaya to participate in the Mass in memory of his healing and ask for the saint’s powerful intercession.

This miracle, along with many others attributed to St. Charbel, has revitalized the faith of generations. His austere life was dedicated to God. It was marked by silence, prayer, and an extraordinary Eucharistic devotion. Today, it stands as a witness to holiness.

St. Charbel was born on May 8, 1828, in Bekaa Kafra, northern Lebanon. At the age of 23, he entered the Monastery of St. Maron in Annaya, where he later embraced the life of a hermit. He died in 1898 while celebrating Holy Mass. Since then, his tomb has been a place of miracles and conversion.

Faithful to the promise to the end

Nohad El Shami, whose testimony became the heart of this monthly devotion, passed away recently, on May 14, 2025, after decades of faithfulness to the promise made to St. Charbel. Until the end, he attended Mass every 22nd, sharing his story with humility.

In the words of St. Charbel himself, etched in the hearts of those who come to him with confidence,
“I did this so that the world may see and return to the faith.”

This is how to keep the devil away, according to St. John Bosco🇻🇦

St. John Bosco was a holy priest, devoted to prayer and the recipient of many supernatural visions from God. He used these spiritual experiences not only for his own benefit, but also when instructing the boys under his care.

In particular, he would frequently relate to the boys how to stay protected against the devil. Below is his advice and, if followed faithfully, Bosco claimed “the devil will never prevail against you.”

Iranian noticed him and gave him a hug.

I don't know who you are, but you're an Iranian now.
