This week, let us remember the simple yet powerful truth: We are amazing.
We are created by an amazing God, and that divine spark within us makes us extraordinary.
There may be moments when we forget our worth, when challenges cloud our confidence, or when life feels heavy—but even then, the truth remains unshaken: you are amazing.
So, stand tall in that truth.

I want to sincerely thank you all for your prayers and kind messages. I’m finally back on my feet—still moving a little slowly, but grateful to be recovering. Please forgive my recent absence these past two weeks. While visiting the sick and elderly, I came down with RSV and had quite a time catching up after returning to a pile of work and overdue midterm assignments.

I want to sincerely thank you all for your prayers and kind messages. I’m finally back on my feet—still moving a little slowly, but grateful to be recovering. Please forgive my recent absence these past two weeks. While visiting the sick and elderly, I came down with RSV and had quite a time catching up after returning to a pile of work and overdue midterm assignments.
By God’s grace, I’m now back on track. If anyone wishes to talk or pray together, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I also want to express heartfelt gratitude to Sir Chaplain Randall Morris for leading the last Bible study in my stead.
God bless you all.

Unfortunately, I appear to have contracted a bacterial infection while visiting the sick, which has left me bedridden with severe fatigue, cough, sore throat, and fever. I have been under medication and rest for nearly a week. I was only able to make it to church briefly on Ash Wednesday and struggled to get through the service.
I kindly ask that you keep me in your thoughts and prayers during this time. Once I have fully recovered, I look forward to reconnecting and resuming our fellowship together.
In Christ,

Today, as the Church places ashes on our foreheads, it's not a gesture of shame, but a profound truth about our human experience. It reminds us that we are wonderfully fragile, beautifully time-bound, and that our own efforts, no matter how grand, will eventually return to the earth.
Yet, within that very dust, we see the sign of the cross. This isn't a mark of our limitations, but a powerful symbol of hope.

It reminds us that we are wonderfully fragile, beautifully time-bound, and that our own efforts, no matter how grand, will eventually return to the earth.
Yet, within that very dust, we see the sign of the cross. This isn't a mark of our limitations, but a powerful symbol of hope. It signifies that our vulnerability has been embraced by Christ's boundless mercy, and that our ultimate destiny isn't the silence of the grave, but the promise of resurrection.
So, as we hear the words, "Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return," let us also remember the incredible love that transforms our dust into something sacred.

Your presence and participation truly made the evening special. I’ve included a link to the documents I prepared for this series so you can spend more time reflecting on them in prayer and study.
Please save the file to your desktop or laptop as a reference for what we’ll be covering in the weeks to come. Use it as a tool to stay grounded in Templar spirituality, and to reflect on how the Christian life, modern Templar calling, and discipleship all intertwine.
Take time to revisit the stories of the Biblical heroes who embody the virtues and attributes of Knighthood. Like them, we are warriors of Christ—living by a sacred code, strengthened through prayer, and guided by unwavering faith.
I encourage you to enter into deep contemplation this week and reflect on the questions we shared tonight:
Why did you pursue the OMSDT Knighthood?
What do you hope to gain in your Templar journey?
What will you strive for as an OMSDT Knight Templar?
Remember, dear brothers and sisters, the true journey begins at Knighting. May Christ light your path and keep your spirit steadfast in courage and devotion.
In Christ’s service,
