When I was in high school, some of us were given free small bible copies. And because we were in a State college, we only got to celebrate a few masses in school during the week. If we were lucky, we went to where the mass would be celebrated because we didn't have a built-in chapel or a prayer room at that time.
The bibles were given to us by Protestants. Yes, they were Christians. I thank them for such a gift. My Catholic religion also offered me a lot of prayer books and some story books. My mother bought us a lot of inspirational materials. My favourite was the comic stories of saints published by St. Paul's. The pictures and drawings were attractive, which made me read it more.

In my college years, during some weekends we had bible sharing activities with a priest and a brother in our parish named, "Our Lady of Peace and Good Voyage."

Also, I attended some bible sharing sessions with my protestant classmates. I was welcomed in their church. I guess I'm a bit lucky, or would I

Dear GalTime, HELP! I'm getting social media fatigue. FB,Twit, LinkedIn, the new Google thing. Where does it end and how do you know how much to tackle to stay in the loop?

If you're in the business world, LinkedIn is an excellent tool. It's not something I use because I find, in my creative line of work, it doesn't help me and it's not as much of a social site as the others.

I'm partial to Facebook-for business and pleasure-and Twitter for both as well, as they serve different purposes.

Facebook is much more of a platform for sharing who you are.
