Guest Speaker: Jackie Macabuha

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord,” plans to prosper you
and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11

Jackie Macabuhay is a dynamic business entrepreneur but behind the success lies a powerful journey of faith and resilience. Growing up Catholic, she struggled with her faith and did not understand how God could possibly work in her life.

At the age of 24, a life-altering diagnosis of cancer shifted everything. This pivotal moment led her and her family to discover and embrace the Catholic Charismatic renewal. The experience began a deep and transformative relationship with God.

Over the last 35 years, in spite of numerous obstacles including several life threatening health issues and loosing her home and belongings in the California wildfires, Jackie has dedicated her life to serving the Lord. While enduring these difficult trials, some would ask, “how are you able to praise God?”, in the end, her only response was, “there is no other option”.Jackie and her husband have worked together as a couple in Catholic youth ministry and she will share how the Lord has taken her from her comfort zone as an introvert, to now a Praise and Worship Leader, speaker and Coordinator for the Heart of Jesus Community in Glendale

History of Orange Diocese Magnificat Queen of Peace Chapter

Est. 1992

In 1991, a group of women attending Southern California Renewal Communities (SCRC) Charismatic Convention, was inspired by a priest speaking about Magnificat, a Ministry to Catholic Women. The Holy Spirit touched the hearts of Pat Rensing, Anita Williams, Billie Walter and Barbara Clark and made the decision to launch Magnificat in the Orange Diocese. Fr. Eamon O’Gorman was its first Spiritual Advisor. Bishop McFarland approved Magnificat for the Orange Diocese and Our Lady Queen of Peace Chapter was born!

The first OC Magnificat Prayer breakfast took place at the Holy Family Cathedral Parish Hall in Orange, CA. in February 1992. The event was a potluck style of prayer breakfast. The members of Magnificat continued to grow in numbers, hence, a bigger space was required to accommodate more.

We are proud to be celebrating 30 years of OC Magnificat! Our Lady’s mantle has protected and guided our Chapter, and we sing along with her, “The Almighty has done great thing for us, and Holy is His name!”
