Acts chapter 12 "...While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them." Then after fasting and praying they laid their hands on them and sent them off." Have you heard from the Holy Spirit? Have you been listening? Maybe it speaks to your spirit and not in your ear. I think the Spirit and our souls are on the same page. We recently, at our Pastors 25th anniversary of his ordination, laid hands on him or the person in front of us and the lady in front of me jumped when I put my hand on her. She asked me what we were doing and thanked me when I explained it. English is not her first language. Understanding and sharing can help us all to be better Christians, to be sent out to share.

Escalante Philippines
Japanese Era[edit]
In 1942, the occupation by the Japanese Imperial forces entered the towns in Escalante. The establishment of the general headquarters of the Philippine Commonwealth Army was active on January 3, 1942 to June 30, 1946 and the 7th Infantry Regiment of the Philippine Constabulary was active again on October 28, 1944 to June 30, 1946 and military stationed in the town municipality of Escalante during the Japanese Occupation.
In 1945, local Filipino soldiers of the 7th, 72nd, 75th and 76th Infantry Division of the Philippine Commonwealth Army and the 7th Constabulary Regiment of the Philippine Constabulary was liberated the towns in Escalante, Negros Occidental and helping Negrosanon guerrilla fighters defeats and attacking Japanese Imperial forces and ended of the Second World War.
In 1941, Victor Bedonia succeeded Francisco Ferrer Sr. as mayor, and was supported by the local guerillas. The siege of all Filipino troops of the Philippine Army and Constabulary units was found liberated in the town municipality on 1945 against the Japanese. He served until 1948. The Japanese however installed Enrique Ballesteros as mayor until the end of the war.
I'm sure there are movies of this war.
Enjoy the day! Make it memorable!
