We are thankful with God, for this experience that He give us, for know you, and for walk in the same way following Jesus.

Somos Adriana y Poncho, matrimonio misionero Verbum Dei desde hace 19 años. Venimos de México a Filipinas para iniciar el curso de formación de matrimonios misioneros. Estamos muy contentos porque ya está todo listo y hemos iniciado. Tuvimos una misa de inauguración oficial con todos los matrimonios y todos nuestros hijos, que entre todos, suman 18 niños y adolescentes, como verán somos una familia muy numerosa. Estamos muy agradecidos con Dios por esta experiencia que nos regala, por conocerles, por coincidir en el camino de seguimiento con todos ustedes. Estamos aprendiendo inglés y bisaya, para podernos comunicar con ustedes, pero nos hemos dado cuenta que hay un lenguaje que todos entendemos muy bien, el lenguaje del Amor: “Amense como Yo les he amado” y eso es lo que estamos intentando hacer, a veces, sin tantas palabras porque no sabemos muy bien como decir las cosas. Gracias por la calidez, cercanía y acogida de este pueblo Filipino. Gracias porque a cada uno de los miembros de nuestra familia, nos han hecho sentir su familia. Ahora, nuestros hijos son son kuyas, nuestra hija es ate Tere y nosotros somos, titos Poncho y titas Adriana. Gracias hermanos, gracias familia por abrirnos las puertas de su casa y de su corazón!
