Last Sabbath, August 10, 2024, ISAMS was given the opportunity to minister to our brothers deprived of liberty at BJMP, Nanga, Pototan.
Catering to their physical and spiritual needs, we were more than blessed to be able to share our God-given talents as our brothers in Christ also imparted the wisdom they learned from their Bible readings.
Praying for more special moments with these precious souls. We hope to visit you again soon and share more stories, more songs and more lessons.
ISAMS would also like to thank Sis. Kleah, her fellow missionaries, and BJMP for making this encounter a possibility. May God continue to use us all to reach the unreached!
All the hard work and sleepless nights have paid off!
Congratulations to Jeremie Anderson Kiang Lua for being the Second Ranking Board Topnotcher to the August 2024 Medical Technologists Licensure Examination! ๐ Your dedication and perseverance are truly inspiring. As you move forward to become a physician, may your talents and dedication be an offering to God's mission.
We are proud of you,
ISAMS
Another year, another mission.
The Iloilo Society of Adventist Medical Students presents its newly-elected set of officers for the academic year 2024-2025!
Thank you for responding to the call with such dedication and commitment to serving both God and our organization. May the Lord bless and guide your plans to success.

Indeed, your journey is meaningful in all its ups and downs. The dream planted in your heart is slowly bearing fruit.
As you spread your branches further, you may find yourself sacrificing a part of yourself in order to reach new heights. Fret not, for as is stated in ๐ฑ๐๐๐ 15:2, the Gardener is simply pruning you that you may bear the best fruits.

"The fact that we are called upon to endure trial shows that the Lord Jesus sees in us something precious which He desires to develop. If He saw in us nothing whereby He might glorify His name, He would not spend time in refining us." โThe Ministry of Healing.
You have been through a lot and you will go through so much more as the Potter molds you in His likeness. So go forth as you fulfill that dream which is also His will.
Always praying for you,

"Our work is clearly defined. As the Father sent His only-begotten Son into our world, even so Christ sends us, His disciples, as His medical missionary workers. In fulfilling this high and holy mission, we are to do the will of God. No one man's mind or judgment is to be our criterion of what constitutes genuine medical missionary work... [MM, 24]"
The Iloilo Society of Adventist Medical Students (ISAMS) is grateful to the West Visayan Conference (WVC) for this opportunity to be a blessing to our brethren in Agcuwayan, Barotac Nuevo.
We, too, have been blessed by the reminder of what it means to be God's medical missionaries.
We would like to thank Pastor Rey Portugalete and Sis. Mary Jane Doriego for your initiatives to reach the underserved, and for this opportunity for ISAMS to work together for His cause. We would also like to appreciate the nutritious and delicious food prepared by the local government unit.
Happy Sabbath, Friends!
Isaiah 30:21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, โThis is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the leftโ
This was the random Bible verse that popped out of my phone upon waking up 5 years ago. I was then working as an administrator with a permanent position in a government agency earnestly praying if God wanted me to step up to a higher position or shift to a teaching opportunity within the same agency. But surprisingly and unexpectedly, His answer didnโt include either of them. I was also then already a married person.
Flashback to when I was a preschooler, I can vividly see myself being carried by my father in his arms, and was asked by him, โAno gusto mo paglaki nak?โ to which without hesitation I happily answered โDoctor Tay, para makatulong aq sa ibang taoโ.
Fast forward to starting college, I was again asked by him if I would still want to pursue the path to being a doctor. I then told him, โAlanganin Tay, maliban sa matagal masyado, sobrang magastos dinโ and in the back of my mind I said โAyoko na mas mapagod pa kayo ni Nanay sa trabaho, malaki na nasakripisyo nyo para saminโ. He just then acknowledged this without saying anything but also somehow dismayed by my answer. I then graduated having a bachelorโs degree in BS Biology and landed jobs related to administration and took units in education thus also having the option to teach.
I then had 7 years of working experience in different agencies and companies, I was not able to grasp why despite having a good and permanent job, I was not able to feel the fulfillment of doing so, thus the prayer above.
I then attended a work training where I met a doctor who asked me, โOh, BS biology graduate ka pala, bakit hindi ka tumuloy sa pagkaDoctor? Alam mo bang sobrang feasible na ngayon magmedisina since may mga scholarships na?โ I then told him the same reason as I told my father previously, but then he responded, โNaniniwala ka bang binigyan ka ni Lord ng potential at capasidad na maging Doctor?โ, I then responded, โYes po, actuallyโ, then he further added, โAlam mo bang hanggaโt hindi mo yan susundan, hindi ka makakaramdam ng self-fullment since yan ang calling ni Lord sayo?โ. I was then dumbfounded, not able to respond to the question. Our conversation then ended. During that night, I contemplated and all of the interest and passion in pursuing medicine that I've had since childhood gradually came back to me. And I then bowed my knees and asked the Lord God for a sign if I should still pursue being a doctor with my present situation. And guess what? Upon waking up, that verse confirmed His answer.
I then committed myself to preparing and pursuing the necessary steps on transitioning to enter Medical School. The Lord God was way ahead of me on the path He wanted me to take. Despite the challenges such as my family out of love and concern being hesitant to encourage me pursuing Medicine in my then already good situation, financial concerns, temporarily leaving my family to pursue it and other uncertainties, His love and grace carried me through.
During the past 4 years of entering Medical School, there were lots of times I burst into tears and then knelt in prayer because as we all know, the study load and the nature of pursuing Medicine is really excessive and extremely difficult. The burden was too heavy for me let alone being away from my own family. But then again, It was only one moment of prayer for Him to carry those
burdens for me. I could never have gone this far without His guidance and sustenance through my support system, my family, the brethren, ISAMs, friends and those others He used as instruments for me to continue along the way.
Now, this episode of my life is nearing its conclusion. With the leading and help of our ever Unfailing and Almighty God, I was able to survive and thrive in Medical School, pass the comprehensive examination and eagerly wait for our graduation and next steps onto being not only a good physician, but also being a missionary doctor for His glory.
On my end, it was the second call where I found myself nowhere to be except only in His presence and His calling. It was also a second chance for me to show how grateful I am for all the blessings He gave me and also to acknowledge His Sovereignty. I am unworthy, I am not able to meet His standards, but His transforming grace and unfailing love continues to change and lead me. We are all a work in progress. And I pray for those who have read these, for you to find yourself on His calling as well. If not in the past, hopefully in the present, and if not at the first then at the right time.
Good food, good company, good vibes, good pieces of adviceโ
ISAMSโ incoming clerks and PGIs were surely filled physically, socially, mentally, and spiritually during the send-off party last Saturday, June 8.
โThink before you speak, and be humble and teachableโ. These were the most valuable tips of Dr. Bebien Mae Christel Andio for the incoming clerks. She also emphasized that while clerkship is a survival journey, it is important to take care of oneself by eating well, resting well, setting boundaries, and brushing off negativities. She also encouraged the future doctors to treat patients with kindness and understanding, just as Jesus did in His healing ministry.
Meanwhile, Dr. Kyle Brian Habaradas shared his life verse throughout clerkship and throughout medical school found in Philippians 1:6, which serves as a reminder that when God has started something in us, like being a missionary doctor for His glory, He will bring about everything it takes for that to become a reality. It may not be the same with what we have in mind or intended originally, but God always finds a way to make it work or to make it happen in His own time and in accordance to His good will.
To our clerks and PGIs, may you be empowered as you take another step in your medical journey. Remember to pray always, to lend a hand, to always strive to give out the best, and to always look out for the best interests of the patients.
"If you fail to plan, you plan to failโ.
- Benjamin Franklin
Embodying these words of wisdom makes me want to see aheadโฆ to my future. Planning things beforehand, overthinking what will happen and enforcing to myself that by this month/year I need to do all of these: Take NMAT. Finish college. Apply for Medical school directly. Graduate. Take the boards. Marry by 2029. Have children.
A 5 yearsโ worth itinerary and I need to finish them all in one go.
What if I fail? Hmmm, okay. I always have backup plans. Name itโฆPlan B,C,D etc. I just wanted everything to be perfectly fine.
So yes! Even the minute details of me trying to squeeze myself in for my current school is heavily documented. Let me tell you a little story from way back Senior Highschool, year 2016 or 2017 (*not sure).
One vesper evening, I was intrigued when they introduced the speaker as a medical student from WVSU. At that time, I had no idea about this school plus I already postponed my dreams of going to Medicine since my perspective changed into a different career-path. It was included in the introduction that this school is one of the top performing schools of Medicine in the Philippines, itโs in Iloilo, so on and so forth. I can even vividly recall his topic that night and talked about โObesity: Spiritual Obesityโ.
Anyway, as I was listening, my hands unknowingly wandered looking for my phone and searched more about this school. Out of nowhere I just find myself uttering these words: โLord if You really want me to become a doctor someday, may it be in this schoolโ.
Now, the little girlโs dreams for Med are slowly coming back to life. YAY!
Fast-forward, as Iโm nearing to close my student life in MVC (I took MedTech btw). I tried to compose yet again another itinerary; this one is more specific. Iโm firm with my decision to proceed to medicine directly, and I want it at WVSU-COMโnothing more nothing less. Boards? Nah! Iโll just take it during my freshman years. I started my plans by aiming to take NMAT reviews by October 2021, and by May 2022 I need to reach an NMAT score of 80 and above to make my cut for the school. Truth be told, my papers for admission were already complete minus the NMAT. Even with hectic internship schedule because of COVID, Iโm still very optimistic that I can push through with all of these. My mind and body were already in sync to go by this plan. My confidence level reached an all-time high. So, I proceededโฆ
โฆand spectacularly, I failed to reach the cut-off score.
Sometimes having our own plans doesnโt guarantee success. So many times, we are tempted to stress out if things donโt seem to go the way we think they should. And thatโs exactly how I feel that time. My efforts were unrequited, my backup plans wonโt even compensate nor work to make and turn things around. Everything is crumbling down; I donโt know which part to rebuild first. I was completely disappointed and even blamed God. What am I supposed to do with this one-year delay? Can I still study Medicine? Should I consider other paths or other schools? Should I wait for nothing?
It took me 5 months to realize that His absence during planning was the missing puzzle piece.
Ellen G. White warns us that โFor too many, in planning for a brilliant future, make an utter failure. Let God plan for youโฆ Surrender all your plans to Him, to be carried out or given up as His providence shall indicate (Steps to Christ.p70) .โ
Pride obscured my vision and led me to forget what I actually prayed for. Not even knowing that the Lord was preparing to answer it. All along this was His plan, what seems to be a failure to me, the depression, the delay all of these were perfectly orchestrated by the Master. I just canโt see nor appreciate it because it was not to my liking. And yet, this is His way for me to experience His wonderful plans. The delay allowed me to confront the beauty of passing the board exams, the opportunity to work, to have rest and that NMAT is sweeter the second time around. Plus, successfully admitted, enrolled, and finally study in Medical School. Well, this time another wave of problems is threatening to push me off balance but now itโs all in Godโs hand.
As Isaiah 55:9 says, โFor as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways. And My thoughts than your thoughtsโ.
Therefore, a change of mantra perhaps?
โIf you fail to plan with God, you plan to failโ.
Join us tonight as we look into the life of Joseph, one whoโs life seemed like a series of pain but was wholly surrendered to God and used as the deliverer of his family and nation.
DAY 1 of Week of Prayer
HAPPY NEW YEAR once again from ISAMS Family. May God continue to bless us all! ๐๐๐
In the spirit of unity and purpose, ISAMS is ready to navigate the opportunities and challenges that 2024 holds. Last night's gathering symbolize our collective gratitude, the exchange of thoughtful gifts, and the joy that binds us together. As we embark on this new year, may our commitment to the Lord guide our journey, nurturing the potential within each member to become dedicated future medical missionaries, ready to make a positive impact on the world.
As we stand on the precipice of a new year, it's a beautiful time to reflect on the Lord's goodness that has accompanied us throughout the past year. In every sunrise and sunset, in moments of joy and even in the midst of challenges, His grace has been our constant companion.
As we step into the unknown of the coming year, let's carry with us the assurance that His blessings will continue to rain down upon us. Just as He has been faithful in the past, His faithfulness will be our guiding light in the days to come.

"Why didnโt you study in your institution?" This was asked by a doctor while I introduced myself before starting a small group discussion. I answered, โBecause itโs nearer to where I live, and my parents graduated here.โ While the reason I gave was true, there was a deeper reason why I am studying where I am. It was not the right time to share it although I know that it will come in God's time.
I never wanted to pursue medicine. When asked about my career in the past, pursuing medicine would be my answer yet I never found the motivation or desire to pursue this course. The last four months were difficult as I had to make this decision. I considered working as a Medical Technologist and taking a Master's program as I wanted to teach. I prayed and asked for counsel hoping for an answer that would settle my unrest. No concrete answer was given. Not knowing what to do, I prayed and decided to apply to WVSU. I only had one copy of my original documents so this would be the only application I can do in the area.
After applying, I joined PYC. Here, I entered a breakout session for missions expecting the usual mission topics, but was surprised when it was โHow to Reach a Secular Campusโ. Though I wanted to deny it, deep within I knew God wanted me to enter WVSU. I went for the interview praying that God would intervene and my slot would be given to one more deserving if I were making the wrong choice. If I would be accepted, I would come as a missionary. After a few weeks, I was among the accepted applicants.
Three months into medicine, I had so many encounters and opportunities that I could no longer question Godโs leading. I realized that sometimes the only reason we need to have in moving forward is the assurance that we are where God wants us to be (Psalm 32:8). I realized that when I focus on the desire to get what I want, I end up miserable when things do not go my way, but when all things are done for Godโs glory, all things work together for good (1 Corinthians 10:31; Romans 8:28). I still have a long journey, but I claim that as I focus on Jesus and move through the doors He opens, He will give the true desires of my heart (Psalm 37:4)."
Connecting to the Master Savior involves seeking God in both ordinary and extraordinary moments, recognizing that God's mission is to continually reach out to us. Just like in the story of Elijah, even in times of exhaustion and despair, God offers rest, sustenance, and a still, small voice to guide us. It's a journey of constant connection, where we can honestly share our feelings, hopes, and fears, knowing that NOTHING is too big for God to handle. Amid grief and challenges, we must remember that God ultimately triumphs.

AMSN Week of Prayer ๐๐ป
Bow the Knee: Night 1
"Being a Christian has always been a struggle for me.
Some might find it hard to believe since most people back in my hometown perceive me as an active and dedicated youth leader. Despite being a daughter of converted parents, I was raised to take part in church services, and was given many opportunities to grow my talents. I was always willing and ready to give extra effort if it was for the Lord's cause.
But behind that exterior was a pressure unlike any other. I was having personal battles I could only keep to myself since I had an image to maintain. This eventually led to a shallow Christian life. I was so consumed by obligations that I failed to build a personal relationship with God.
A weak relationship with God made me more susceptible to temptations, and no matter how minor the sin, its weight was so heavy that I eventually felt unworthy of His presence.
I began to turn down appointments which only further severed my ties with the Lord. I did not realize it was His voice trying to call me back to Him.
Of course, I realized my error. I began to pray that the Lord would take me back.
Just before I entered medical school, the Lord sent me people through the Public Campus Ministries, who uplifted me and exposed me to opportunities that would not only allow me to serve the Lord, but to once again build a personal relationship with Him.
Unbeknownst to me, the Lord was already paving a way for me to come back to Him. All I had to do was listen to His call and take that path. The next school year, not only was I accepted into medical school โ God once again sent me people who would lead me back to Him
My journey still isn't perfect, but I've learned through ISAMS that I need not be perfect for the Lord to accept my offering. All I had to do was listen to His call and answer. No matter where I am, and no matter what my state will be.
For those struggling with feelings of unworthiness, I pray that you will come to Jesus as you are, with whatever talents and skills you currently have, and He is sure to multiply that and help you perfect your character."
It was a blessed Sabbath Indeed ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ

Once again, Praise God for the resounding success of the online exchange program, "So Far, Yet So Close" presented by the Adventist Medical Students Network that have happened yesterday, 2pm.
Participants from ISAMS, AMICUS-UNP and Direct Members gathered via Zoom, with Ms. Azariah Galinato as the speaker. She highlighted the importance of integrity as she shares her experience. The ability to remain honest and trustworthy with one's belief will not only strengthen your faith but will also inspire others to do the same.
Although separated by distance, these organizations were brought together by fun virtual activities, promoting camaraderie and even exchanging medschool woes. The program capped with an enriched relationship strengthened by being united with God as the students prayed for each other
