What is your greatest realization in pre confirmation seminar?

At first, when my friend invited me to attend a seminar, I seemed hesitant to make a decision,
because the seminar was the whole week during our enrollment. But I decided to attend the
seminar so I could be confirmed. In the first days, I was interested in what was going to be
discussed, because I had many questions and wanted to know about being a Catholic. It was
immediately answered little by little with what I was learning and knowing and I also realized
that we are committing sins every day because sometimes we base a person on the sin of law
from the higher authorities, but what we don't notice is the law by made by our God, I thought
that I have done many wrongs in my deeds and words, but I also committed sins through my
mind. I am very thankful because there is a way to purify or clean my soul by confessing to the
priest and telling all my wrongdoing.
As the days past I have so many life lessons and realizations, because sometimes I am angry of
my life, so many problems that I don’t know how to solved, I have also thought about killing
myself several times and asking God why he put me in that situation. Then this seminar
enlightens me about life, that our problem is not a forever suffering that there is a rainbow after a
thunderstorm. And we have to be thankful to our lives everyday has the God given to us, and also
for our daily living and to eat more than 3 meals a day. we should also know how to be content
with the things we have because we still have those who are really poor but have strong faith in
God. And I also want to be stable in money because I want to share the blessing I received to
help others and also to spread the good news from our Lord.
In our life we have some phases or situation that we want to end our life to stop the pain but God
made that to make us stronger, we should not lose hope by making our life good that there is so
many beautiful things that may happen, we just wait for the right time that God had made. And
one of the things I remember most from the seminar is that "every day you must do good to your
fellow man" to have a good and better life.

Look for favorite saint

Saint Cecilia is my favorite Saint because her feast is on my birthday November 22, and she is
also a patron of musicians, composers, instrument makers, and poets that I also like. I love
to sing and listen to music, sometimes I listen to music during my past time or when I'm
cleaning our house, and one of my favorite singers is Taylor Swift.

Look for favorite verse

Romans 15:13 “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that
you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”

Who's your favorite saint and why?

To be honest it is hard for me to pick the favorite Saint but i chose the Our Lady of Peñafrancia
not just being a Bicolandias Patron of Millions Devotees, it is an image of the Blessed Virgin
Mary in the Philippines because it's symbolize of divine protection and intercession. We believe
that, through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, there are people in heaven that we call
saints. We believe that they are alive and active and living in the presence of God in a way that
we cannot yet do. Our Lady of Peñafrancia is my INA she is always been at my side in the
toughest of trials i have had face she always watching me ever vigilant and ready to intercede to
keep evil away and secure the peace. One way of my devotion to Ina is to beingna choir member,
since we believe that, we ask them to pray for us!
