Who is Grace R. Princesa and what was her achievement and credentials?
Appointed by Commission on Appointments approved on May 27, the appointment of Grace R. Princesa as Ambassadors Extra Ordinary and Plenipotentiary to the United Arab Emirates.
A simple Filipina who was full of courage and unwavering faith. I personally met her in the "Feast" the Sunday gathering of Filipino Catholic Christian headed by Bro. Bo Sanchez at Valle Verde Pasig City. She has a chance to share her experiences not only as diplomat but also as a wife, a mother and a servant of the Lord.
She shared her successes as a Philippine representative to various Arab countries including Iraq during the Gulf war. She received citation for her work in helping our Overseas Filipino Workers abroad. She face another challenges as ambassadors due to numerous cases of abuses, maltreatment,jailed OFWs and OFWs who died mysteriously in UAE and Qatar.
Princesa was also a victim of abuse as wife. For many years, she was a victim of physical and psychological abuse from her husband. But because of her courage she remained strong particularly for her children. With all her faith and courage she did not even hate her husband instead continued to love him and taught her children to love their father despite of his behavior. Until her husband left her and their children.
She raise all her children alone as single mom. A proud mother, she was proud to tell the country that she was able send all her children in college. Three of her children was a professional degree holder, such as a lawyer, a doctor,and another work in of United Nations. The two young child was still studying in college and high school were both are scholars.
She share that whatever the rise and fall of our life, we Filipino has a virtue of courage and faith that never give up to all the challenges of our life. A wonderful message and encouragement to all Filipinos.
