BISHOP JOSEPH VITUG, Ph.D.

His first dream in life was to be a doctor, like any other kids on the block. He has this moderation in life, that when you have a strong desire to what you want to be, go for it and if you fall short of success at least you give your aspiration a try, look for another avenue. There are many streets in the city, many ways to achieve another goal, there are many paths or course that will lead you to a direction that is really meant for you or in other words that will be you. Make it clear and sharp that what you want to be is what you can be. Consider the present situation where you stand, make an analogy of yourself.

If you are full of courage to pursue your dream but do not have a substance to support it, what good will it do to you. Determination to fight a battle of impossibilities will only drive your next move to be upset. Refocus yourself, reset your goal then make a move and your dream is more likely to come to reality. Dreaming will not cost you a dime but time; if time is an important factor of your life, then it will cost you, and then use your time accordingly. This is not being arrogant but confident you want to establish yourself at an early age. Always aim high and be inspired of this phrase “Fairy tales can come true it could happen to you”

Bro Joseph took pre-medical courses without his father's knowledge but was not able to pursue when his father learned about it and to add to the consequences, the financial difficulties became an issue and the family budget became tight and he ended up finishing another Bachelor's degree major in Mathematics at the National College of Business and Arts, Manila City, Philippines.

During his early years, he worked with the Bureau of Disease Control, Department of Health in the Philippines under the UNICEF Leprosy Control Program for eight years, prior to immigrating to the United States. This type of job dealt direct contact with leprosy patients monitoring and administering drugs. However, his dream did not end there. The calling came and he did not ignore the high calling from above to pursue his quest to be a healer in a different way. He finished his Bachelor of Divinity and his Master's degree in Metaphysical Sciences in his early sixty and Doctor of Divinity (Honoris Causa). This is his greatest achievement besides his family.

Born in Manila, Philippines and retired Laboratory Analyst from Union Carbide now known as Dow Chemicals. He is very proud of his accomplishment in the company and almost all of his trainees became very well off in the company and one of them even became the second ranking top executive in their plant. His attitude in life is that when you acquired some knowledge; share it to those who want it. We came in this world nothing and we will leave this world with nothing, why not share your knowledge, it is from Him who owns it anyway. Insecurity is work of the devil and we do not want to corrupt our mind by not rebuking it. We have the authority and power to cast it out in the name of Jesus Christ.

His age did not stop him in pursuing his education after he acquired the Master's degree, he pursue his post graduate studies and received his doctoral degree, Ph.D. with concentration in Holistic healing and Holistic Life Counseling. He was granted a practitioner certificate, a license to practice such. He is continuously widening his education and has completed a Bible Study course at the Amazing Facts Bible School in California and The History of Redemption at BLB Institute Also in California. A three months studies in the doctrine of Iglesia Ni Kristo. With these three different denominations with these three different doctrines made his faith more stronger, that the fullness of God is our Lord Jesus Christ.

A born again Christian and has received the baptism of the Holy Spirit in October 2006, a personal experience that is uniquely bestowed upon those who believe in Jesus Christ. After so many decades of being a Catholic Christian he can compare and share the experience of being born from above. The revelation of the knowledge, understanding and wisdom of Him, the relationship with Him, and the way we communicate with Him. How great it is to be loved by Him. Every time you please Him, you feel the joy, the humbleness and awareness that are inside you.
