Food,Culture & Everything

We celebrated God’s blessing for our new home last Saturday. We actually don’t call it as a house blessing but we  dedicated our house to the Lord. For us Christians, we have these spiritual house cleansing and purification where we take authority over bad spirits that have been welcomed throughout the home’s history and we leave doors open for their escape. We also did a prayer of blessing while anointing it with an oil. And as we speak blessings to our new home, we prayed to let God’s angels preside and watch over as we live permanently here.

We did not prepare lots of food since we don’t have much visitors. Its just our family and some of our fellow church members. We just prepared roasted “lechon” pig, beef steak and pancit bam-i as our main dish. A simple fruit salad and watermelon was also added for our sweets and dessert. We really enjoyed that day as we all gathered together thanking God for his unmerited favor and blessing that He has given us.
