WHY Latinos cant be terrorists.....

1. 8:45 am is too early for us to be up
2. We are always late, we would have missed all 4flights
3. Pretty people on the plane distract us
4. We would talk loudly and bring attention to ourselves
5. With food and drinks on the plane, we would forget why we're there
6. We talk with our hands, therefore we would have to put our weapons down
7. We would ALL want to fly the plane
8. We would argue and start a fight in the plane
9. We can't keep a secret, we would have told everyone a week before doing it
AND MY FAVORITE.....
10. We would have put our country's flag on the windshield.

ARE YOU A LATINO? HOW CAN YOU TELL FOR SURE?
If others tell you to stop screaming when you are really just talking.
If you light a candle to Virgin Mary on the night before your big test.
If you use "manteca" instead of olive oil and can't figure out why your nalgas are getting bigger.
If whenever you feel under the weather, you compulsively dab on some "Vic's vapor rub" all over your pecho and inside your nostrils or use it around your eyes when you can't sleep!!!
Your mom packs your "lonche" every day even though you've just turned thirty-two.
If you call the North Americans "gringos", including Canadians, and call all Asian people "chinos" or "chinitos"and you call the corner store "the chinito's store."

Prayer Insights

Steve Swihart

The apostle Paul relied heavily upon PEOPLE like Silas, Timothy, Titus, Sosthenes, Luke and others to fulfill the ministry God had for him. He also relied strongly upon the PRAYERS of others for effective ministry. He requested the Romans, the Corinthians, the Ephesians, the Colossians, the Thessalonians, and Philemon to pray for him (Rom. 15:31; 2 Cor. 1:10-11; Eph. 6:19-20, Col. 4:3-4, 1 Thess. 5:25; 2 Thess. 3:1-2; Plm. 21). Even Jesus looked to PEOPLE and to their PRAYERS for help (Mk. 3:13-19 and Matt. 26:36-46).

If Paul and Jesus counted on PEOPLE and their PRAYERS for success, then these examples must also become our own pattern. Everyone in the ministry needs people he (or she) can rely on for SUPPORT and SUPPLICATION. The work is too important,
the temptations are too real, and the trials are too heavy to travel the road of ministry alone. Surround yourself with PEOPLE and PRAYERS.

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
