Welcome to Bethania Alumini Blogspot


The bell has rang and it's time for chapel, what are you still doing? You want to be late? Do you want dimerits or do you want your name to be listed as a Friday worker? Do these phrases ring a bell? Welcome to a spot on the internet where we can reminisce, get in touch and keep each other posted. Most importantly, let us find time to encourage each other to be who we are, strong women for Christ. With the technology revolutionizing the way we communicate with each other, we do not have anymore excuse not look out and be there for each other just like the days back on campus. If you're like me who used to consider Bethania High School as a prison, well let me be the first to say that I so miss that sense of togetherness, caring and safety that it provided us. It is true that we often do not appreciate a good thing until it's gone. Being on the outside now, hustling and bustling, I have come to realize that I am who I am because of what God has done for me. The education, or rather, training that I got while in Bethania had helped to shape me and continues to make me the person I am. I wake up in the morning with a new hope because I know that God makes the sun rise for me and my family and that He is faithful and will help me in time of need. Like so many, I face many struggles and hurdles, but I have yet to encounter a time when I need help and God did not see me through. I also find myself at times drifting away from the path I know I must walk on, and I thank God that every time I meet or talk (physically and electronically) with an alumini, I am reminded about how I should be living my life--"holding forth the Word of life" Phil. 16: 2a. So with that, I welcome all Bethania Alumini to this blog. Please post your blogs and share your thoughts, memories, encouragement, prayer requests, etc...oh and yes, pictures if you have any. Does anyone have pictures of me when I weigh less than a hundred pounds?:)

2 Thessalonians 3: 16

"Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.

Let there be love...

Sis, thanks for putting this site together for us to use it, and to utlize it to the extend of how far we could "each one, reach one", and most importantly for all of us to remain in touch with each other as well. All these blogs you've posted so far sure brought a WHOLE LOT of great memories back, which it made me want to express how much I truly thank God that He had brought me from way across the Eastern Pacific Island to the Western side of our Pacific to have met each and every one of ya'll. "I thank God everytime I remember you"! And since Thanksgiving Day is approaching too, I'd like to wish you all a very happy "Ranin Kamwolol"....remember this was our Thanksgiving theme durin gour senior year?! Anyways, do take care and God bless all!!
