Sorry! Sorry! I was planning on posting this a few weeks back, but events at the office got in the way, and I completely forgot this was still pending. As such, I am throwing in a couple of freebies (secret!) when I send out your prizes!
Without any more delays, here are the winners for that Jars of Clay promo! Each winning a Jars of Clay THE SHELTER CD plus something... uh... secret. Hehe.
Congratulations, winners! I shall send you an email over the weekend on how to claim your prize. Please expect it on the email address you used to join the giveaway.
Special thanks to House of Praise for the Jars of Clay loot!
Okay, now that that's done... it's time for another one... SOON!
I love watching these girls. Something about them keeps me hooked. I can't stop watching their videos. Don't miss them when they come to Manila on the 21st of June.
And stay tuned to my Birthday Blowout because I'm giving away tickets to this event! Yay! See you there!
There is a good reason why I love Citipointe LIVE. Back in 2009, right in the middle of the R Controversy, I went touring with this group from Brisbane, Australia. It was their first time in the Philippines, and they went around Cebu, Bacolod, Dumaguete and Manila.
Stu, on the jeepney in Dumaguete. Joel and the rest of the team inside.
The members became my friends. Most of whom stood with me in prayer during THAT difficult time in my life.
Eek photo, but yea, friends from Brisbane, Australia.
The girls (Cathy and Becky) bending down to my tiny self. LOL! #iLove.
Playing fan girl with Joel Ramsey.
With lead singer and Citipointe Church's Worship Pastor, Aaron Lucas.
I have many more photos from recent tours, but 2009 is closest to my heart. These people actually prayed for me, and I will never forget that.
Here's your chance to own not one, but TWO signed CDs (CD+DVD, actually) from Citipointe LIVE! The folks at House of Praise (wait, that's me, LOL!) have generously given us 5 signed Devoted CDs (Citipointe LIVE's best-selling album) and 5 signed Hope Is Erupting CDs (their latest release).
There will be 5 winners, winning one set each - 1 Devoted CD + 1 Hope is Erupting CD, both signed by the members of Citipointe LIVE!
Rafflecopter is scheduled for June 9, 12:01 EST. That means, you can start joining this promo around lunch time, Saturday. :)
Thanks to the world of Youtube, world-class talents such as twin sisters Janice and
Sonia Lee are now certified singing sensations. Having garnered over 62,111,900
video views around the world, these sisters are showing the world that they've got a
lot of talent and love to offer people who are willing to listen.
In 2008, the duo discovered the world of YouTube. Fascinated by the concept of
connecting with an unseen audience all over the world, they created their first
account under the name "Jayesslee". The name was their attempt to be clever – fusing
both of their initials and spelling it out.
Born and raised in Sydney, Australia to Korean parents, Janice and Sonia never
thought that they would be touring the United States of America, Thailand, Malaysia,
Singapore, Canada and now – for the first time ever – the Philippines!
On June 21, 2012 (Thursday), JAYESSLEE will be stepping out of the virtual world and
will be performing LIVE at 3/F Robinsons Forum (Pioneer) 7:30 in the evening with
their inspiring, feel-good, and passionate music.
Catch them LIVE IN MANILA as they continue their Asian tour in the Philippines!
For tickets, call Ticketworld (891-9999) or BMI Tickets (910-5524).
Of all the Katy Perry songs A is crazy about, this is my favorite. The other night, on the way to Edsa Shangri-la for an after-concert party, A decided to talk to me about this song.
"It reminds me of you, Ma."

PEARL
She is a pyramid
But with him she's just a grain of sand
This love's too strong like mice and men
Squeezing out the life that should be let in
She was a hurricane-cane-cane-cane
But now she's just a gust of wind
She used to set the sails of a thousand ships
Was a force to be reckoned with
She could be a statue of liberty
She could be a Joan of Arc
But he's scared of the light that's inside of her
So he keeps her in the dark
Oh, she used to be a pearl...
Ohh
Yeah, she used to rule the world...
Ohh
Can't believe she's become a shell of herself
'Cause she used to be a pearl
She was unstoppable
Moved fast just like an avalanche
But now she's stuck deep in cement
Wishing that they'd never ever met
She could be a statue of liberty
She could be a Joan of Arc
But he's scared of the light that's inside of her
So he keeps her in the dark
Oh, she used to be a pearl...
Ohh
Yeah, she used to rule the world...
Ohh
Can't believe she's become a shell of herself
'Cause she used to be a -
Do you know that there's a way out,
there's a way out
there's a way out
there's a way out
You don't have to be held down,
be held down
be held down
be held down
'Cause I used to be a shell
Yeah, I let him rule my world
my world, ohh, yeah
But I woke up and grew strong
And I can still go on
And no one can take my pearl
You don't have to be shell,
No
You're the one that rules your world, ohh
You are strong
and you'll learn
that you can still go on
And you'll always be a pearl
She is unstoppable
So yea, this is my anthem this week. I hope you find encouragement in Katy Perry's Pearl and find the strength to find yourself again.
Integrity Music announces the April release of Heal Our Land, a new two-disc album featuring a 12-track CD and bonus DVD from Melbourne,
Australia's Planetshakers band.
Heal Our Land is the 24th project from the Aussie worshippers since the band's
formation in 1997. And it is the second release to be distributed under their new
partnership with Integrity, following last fall's release of Nothing Is Impossible.
Originally formed to lead worship for the first Planetshakers conference held in
Australia, the Planetshakers band is passionate about uniting generations worldwide
through worship. Their goal is to see people encounter God, be transformed by His
presence and empowered to make a difference in their world. And though they tour
internationally, the team remains based out of Planetshakers City Church, a
multi-campus, 7,800-member congregation in Melbourne that is pastored by husband and
wife, Russell and Sam Evans.
Recorded live at last year's Planetshakers Conference, Heal Our Land offers up new
songs of passionate, vertical praise and sung prayers including the anthemic title
track based on 2 Chronicles 7:14. The project features Planetshakers team members
including Sam Evans, Rudy Nikkerud and Joth Hunt, who also produced the album.

Well, this was playing in my brother's car today. And yea, reminiscing about my Teen Disc Jockey-ing days with my friends GM, IG, and CJ. Good ol' days! I was 14 and having the time of my life - no worries, no problems, all fun.
We were DJs for a program called 'Just for Teens' on Power 810 AM (DZRJ), and because of the show, we got to know all these artists in the Christian Music world. If you're reading this, and you don't know who Take 6 is, then you should read up and know that THEY ARE LEGENDS! They are an a capella group that won 10 Grammys, 10 Dove awards, and then some. Hearing their music again just brought me back in time, when life was simpler and easier. Hehe.
Enjoy!

I know, I know. The draw was supposed to happen last week. But there was something wrong with Blogger, and I couldn't get online all weekend (aside from Twitter on my old 3G phone). So the draw had to wait... but wait no more! We did the draw today in the office via traditional raffle! After checking entries one by one and verifying that the names that went into my little, blue Ikea KALAS bowl qualified, I had our in-house graphic artist pick the winner for the Lull-A-Bye Baby Giveaway!
