Blessed Birthday, Rev. Junnel Manuel!
Today, we celebrate more than just another year of your life—we celebrate a life that is clearly aligned with God’s purpose. And what a beautiful season this is, as your birthday comes hand in hand with your journey as an ordained pastor. Truly, God’s timing is never random—it is always right, always intentional.
Those who know you well have seen the kind of leader and shepherd you are becoming. You are firm when it comes to what is written—never compromising, always holding the line when it comes to truth and order. A disciplinarian, yes—but not out of harshness, rather out of a deep desire for people to walk in what is right, relevant, and pleasing to God.
At the same time, you carry a heart that connects—especially with the youth. To many, you are more than a pastor; you are a kuya, a guide, someone who walks with them through the realities of Christian life. You correct, you encourage, and you journey with them—and that balance is a rare gift.
As you step deeper into your calling, we pray that God continues to strengthen your body, renew your spirit, and anchor your faith. May your life not only preach from the pulpit but speak loudly through the way you live, lead, and love.
And syempre… we won’t let this pass—
Claiming it early… our future CM! 😄
