Take courage!

Blind man:  Have mercy on me, I beg you!  I want to see!

Jesus:  Stand up, your faith has healed you!




Often we are preoccupied with our worries and struggles that we cannot be disturbed to help those blind people sitting along the roadside asking for help.



Kuya Gil is an example of how we can truly be instruments of God's healing despite our own poverty and handicaps.

On the anniversary and project leaders meeting of the Enfantes Du Mekong, the message of the Bamboos to the scholars are "Take courage and get up.  Jesus is calling you!"


Bartimeus was important to Jesus because he said "Call him" asking the people to bring Bartimeus instead of just ordering Bartimeus to "Come here".  In the same way, the children matter not only to EDM but also to God.  Volunteers are the instruments that God use to bring the children closer to Him and closer to restoration of their sight and the restoration of their faith in humankind.  People are gifts.  People live for other people.  That faith in humankind can save lives!


Padayon, ninong Gil!
