There are people who are always in my heart. Those who are struggling to survive and live a better life. The needy and the helpless or others called less fortunate people.
When I was young, I told my self when I grow up, I wanted to help people in need. I want to reach out to those who are less fortunate. To bring joy and hope to others.
That’s when the Lord put “Arms of Love” in my heart. It was in my heart long before I came to Canada.

Arms of Love is a group aiming to help the needy in the Philippines. To share God’s love and promote joy and hope to those people that really needs it.
I started to collect used clothes and toys, books, shoes and other stuff that can still be used in the Philippines. And collected monetary donations for us in sending boxes overseas.
Through God’s grace and support of others and with the help of a great coordinator (Leona Villareal) back home we were able to reach out to people.
Our activities are targeting the people who are in need of food and clothing. Also visiting the jail, helping the senior citizens and visiting the sick people as mentioned in Matthew 25:35-36.
35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
We’ve started few years ago, and I wanted to thanked all people whose always supporting the group.
Our programs includes feeding, school supplies drive and child education support.
My prayer is to be able to reach out and help more and more people. To let others know about the love of God and that there is always hope.
We’re hoping to develop more programs to help the new moms and babies, also the orphaned and the widows.
If you have a heart to support and help others, you can connect with me and we can join hands to reach out the needy.
