			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A few days ago&nbsp;a certain &ldquo;bernadette&rdquo;&nbsp;made a comment at the <a href="http://bws.biblista.net/" target="_blank">Bible Workshop</a>&nbsp;asking me to help her with a problem.&nbsp;&nbsp; She has been assigned by her community to prepare the eucharistic liturgy in Tagalog and she found herself ill-equipped for it.&nbsp; So she asked whether it was possible for me to help her with Tagalog translations, especially for the prayers of the faithful.&nbsp; In a subsequent email, she wrote:</p>
<p><span id="more-37"></span></p>
<blockquote>
<p><font face="Bodoni MT" size="3">We are here in Nicosia, Cyprus. the numbers of Filipino we have just here in Nicosia is around 2thousand unfortunately just few (500)&nbsp;of us are in the community, overall Cyprus about 10 thousand.&nbsp;We started 16 years ago, I was assign to do the transparencies for the readings in tagalog for the Filipino community mass, unfortunately I couldn&#8217;t make the prayer of the faithful in tagalog over 16 years&nbsp;cause I don&#8217;t have idea from where or which book I can take it, it&#8217;s just happened somebody told me regarding your web page, so I tried.</font></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Cyprus is an island in the Mediterranean that is shaped like a hand with a finger pointing somewhere between Turkey and Syria. It is one of the Bible lands from the New Testament [see this page about <a href="http://www.keyway.ca/htm2000/20000106.htm" target="_blank">Cyprus in the New Testament</a>].

<p><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v76/alesmeralda/th_sambuhaypic.jpg" align=""right" hspace="12">I was glad to know that there are quite a number of Filipinos there who come together to hear the Mass in Tagalog there.&nbsp; So what I did was to scan a Sambuhay Missalette for the 24<sup>th</sup> Sunday into PDF and had it posted on the web for download.&nbsp; Bernadette got it just a few days ago.&nbsp; So this Sunday, I&rsquo;ll be helping 500 Filipino nationals in Nicosia Cyprus hear Mass and pray for the Church in Tagalog.&nbsp; Now I think that is one other reason why it is worth doing this web ministry.</p>
