Gary Valenciano for the PRAY.COM App

This campaign photo of Mr. Pure Energy Gary Valenciano was taken by the Valenciano's good friend, the late Raymund Isaac+ who was also given acknowledgement during the event.

 

There's nothing but goodness in your heart in the morning, to see and hear that the Philippines very own Gary Valenciano as the Philippine ambassador of an app called PRAY which is available in Google Play and the App Store. It's the number one prayer and faith based app on both platforms, and you can download it now.

Pray.com has been founded by Steve Gatena, a social impact company that promotes growth using prayer. The mobile app has daily devotionals, podcasts, bedtime stories, valuable life lessons and articles which includes reading from Hollywood stars. Steve says "We're excited to come to the Philippines. The number one audio and faith based app. I began this during a hardship in life, but prayers got me through it. In a time of a global health pandemic, we're battling depression, and people are asking to support their spirit. You can win the fight with the power of prayer, to remember that God is always with you. You are loved, and your spirit is eternal. The grass withers, the flowers fade, but the word of God stands forever. This app brings prayer in a new way, the number one app is now doing bible based content with some of the biggest celebrities in the world. Gary is an inspiration in the Philippines and the US, we all know he has been an inspiration in the world. His miraculous voice is full of love, we create inspirational content, choose celebrities and partners to create like these and partners like Globe to exemplify the power of prayer, to unify corporations around the world. I encourage you all to throw your anxiety to him, because he cares. We are glad, Gary has wholeheartedly shared the gospel of Jesus Christ."

Gary says "I spent time with friends from Pray.com and when I was there, I felt I was doing something that I wanted to do. The sense of doing a prayer, I'm really honored to be doing this. When I did it, I thought of my kids and reading it to them. I have always wanted this change of voice, it's like sharing my heart. Filipinos here and across the world will now hear Bible stories that I read on the app. Prayer connects you to the one who hears, tapping into this power each time you pray, it makes a more powerful connection to the true source of all these powers. The Pray.com app will also be featuring prayers, morning gratitude statements, bedtime stories based on the Bible. You'll see more of me on the app soon! I pray when things don't go my way, God isn't surprised about that. In 2018 I had my health scare, but even if there's a virus today, I cannot let it take over. I know I am in the hands of God, I will not fall, I will not get affected because he is with me. When everything else is not working, we learn to be still. This Pray.com PH endorsement is something that is ripe, I cannot say it will answer all, however, this is the kind of peace that God gives us so we would be at peace. When you're stuck in traffic, when your doctor says you're sick, when you pray, he's right there with you. It is important for me to be part of something like this. When you pray, you're not just saying words, you are telling the ONE, you open that avenue that only you and him can journey with together. It's easier said and done if you have anxiety, when you can't be with the sick, with prayer, you lift it up to God. He will guide your minds and heart, it's in Christ that does things we cannot even imagine. Even before the pandemic, I know that I am with the Lord's hands. When I saw the app, when I knew that I'm going to be part of this, you'll be surprised at the amount of content that makes this a good one."

Steve adds "I was so excited to do the national day of prayer in the US. As someone who believes in prayer, it was a dream come true. It was a catalyst to get celebrities for all our live streams. When we got in touch with Gary V., his willingness to pray for and with another country, it just came together with the power of prayer. It opened the door for us to work together and doing this today."

The app also has a community feature, in it you can do prayer requests, wherein your friends and family can also join in if they are also registered on the app. You can listen to it daily, so go ahead and download it today!

GMA's Niño Cast Excited On TV Series

We talked to the cast of Niño a couple of weeks ago and catched them again last week. Pretty and smart, Bianca Umali says she can't wait for the show to start this last week of May as the Carmela show of Ms. Marian Rivera got extended for a month. I think they were supposed to have been shown last April 28th but decisions to extend the latter was induced. They were all good vibes about it because they have more time to prepare for this big show that GMA trusted them with. GMA's Carmela has got high ratings and they are prepared to either match that or wish to even outdo it but they know they have a pretty tall order.

Bianca says their story is a little different and hope that the community of Catholics would give special attention to it. She will be portraying the role of Angelica Guevarra who's going to be Miguel Tanfelix's best friend on the series and she'll try her best to make his life easy since he's a special kid. More often than not, people would not understand his situation and Bianca's role would provide the necessary care and love that Miguel needs. She will also perhaps delve on a small love story in the series but it'll be more exciting as Renz Valerio will provide the anti climax and ruin some of their moments. You'll have to watch out for that.

Renz Valerio plays as Raphael Toledo, Niño's brother in the series. He's not that fond of Miguel Tanfelix's personality and gives much grudge and jealousy in the series that he'll probably be a little evil in some scenes. He doesn't understand the special needs his brother presents so it'll be a conflict between him and Niño that you'll have to watch out for. During the small chat, he's very endearing. He's got that quality that you won't tire of when you talk to him. He's like sunshine on a gloomy day. He is a bit nervous though to play someone anti hero because he's never done it before. He always played the goody two shoes kind of character but he thinks he can do it. He doesn't have some other actors to actually pattern this role from but when I asked that the last time he says he'll try to have one. Good chap turning bad, can he do it? I'm sure he'll do a good job.

Time really flies no? This guy right here was the kid I watched in Anna Karenina. He is Julian Marcus Trono. He's grown pretty smart and very articulate. Girls would find him very endearing. He's playing as an antagonist this time and will make Niño's life a little hard. He's not part of the family and as an outsider that would pretty much present a better view on how society will treat a person such as Niño but don't worry because there's always a little Niño that will also help him if he needs it. The little Niño played by David Remo will be like Miguel Tanfelix's own personal guardian angel, so you need to watch how Mat will make their lives a little harder.

Niño is played by Miguel Tanfelix. You've probably seen him in other shows from GMA in the past but he's not much of a kid anymore. Promising and has got leadingman material, he's bound to be another hunk/Dingdong Dantes in the making. He's very humble too which I think would make him go places. He's also blessed in the looks department which ladies pretty much dig. This role is very difficult but he was able to study it quite extensively and applied it on some workshops he's done in the Artist Center stable. They've got a big task ahead of them because as they are playing roles that is going to be affiliated with Sto. Niño and the faithful will probably scrutinize how the story goes. Believing in the goodness of people and their community, they strive to set an example and hope Filipinos will adore Niño as much as they are excited to see it.

Please watch Niño this last week of May as they take on the time slot of Carmela in GMA's Primetime slot.
