Brethren Rody Gumpad, Jay Gumpad, Reneboy Maranion, Jerome Forelo, Sherwin Miranda, and sister Tessie Gumpad left Tuguegarao very 
early in the morning to travel towards Hilltop, Tabuk to visit the family of brother Lorenzo Piayas who just died. We met brethren Geronimo Ganela, Gerald Ganela, Estring Ganela, Virgilio Bocarile, Eli Bocarile at Kalinga before we went to Tabuk. We arrived at the place and have to walk a little to arrive at their home. We
were very happy walking and enjoyed the "mini-mountain climbing" that we experienced; brother Jay Gumpad had an even greater experience for he have to walk up and down hills and cross some creeks with his "prosthesis". After an enjoyable trek we were able to reach the place and meet the family of our late brother Lorenzo. Their we met his wife, we found out that they have four children wherein their oldest son is 10 years old and their youngest is 2 years old. We tried to comfort the family, sang songs of praise and encouragements, and brother Rody Gumpad preached to us a very good lesson about "Where Are The Dead?" Brother Rody discussed that if an infant and a faithful Christian dies it will go to Hades at the place of paradise while if a man dies a sinner or an unfaithful Christian it will also go to Hades at the place of torment. We urged every one to become a Christian and to remain faithful in serving the Lord for us to be able to receive our reward in heaven. The family were very happy and thankful for the encouragements. To you dear brother/sister who might be reading this post, I humbly ask you to please include the family of our late brother Lorenzo Piayas in your prayers.
