 My name is Lionel Piere and I am a grade 11 student of Humms from Baguio Seventh-Day Adventist School. My dream to become in the future is to become of one God's servants, minister and evangelist. Personally, I love reaching out others sharing with them the Love of God despite of what they believe. I serve in my school as the President of Ministerial Association and it's my responsibility to maintain the religious or spiritual programs we have in our Academy.  Moreover, I really love to be like Jesus, to be witness of His amazing Love  because He taught us how to live the way God wants us to live and Jesus also gave us an example how to be a child of God.

God loves you and so do I 😊
