Rizal Park, Norala by Sheela Mar Defensor Baclaan

Read: 1 John 1:1-10

 3 We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. 4 We write this to make our joy complete.

 5 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.

I grew up in Norala, a small town in southern Philippines. In the 60s we had no electricity. However, when it was full moon, our family and the people in our neighborhood would go out of our homes and enjoy the bright night. Adults sat around and chat while we, the children, played out in the streets. What a joyful fellowship!

Give thanks for we have fellowship in the light!

    I was there in Norala during the 60s. too. But I was sent to Iloilo to study , and I did not go back to Norala after graduating from college. And now I really miss the place.! How I wish I could go back to Norala. I wonder how it looks now…
