About Me:
My name is Jon or Edward. First and foremost I am a child of God as we all are. I am a servant and nothing more. I sometimes struggle with trying to define myself cause frankly society makes it difficult. I can tell you that I am a Youth and Young Adult director at my parish. I am also a musician. I do both full time. You're probably wondering to yourself, "what does that exactly entail?" or "I wonder how much money that position makes". I'll divulge that I don't make a lot of money but I do love my job. So now you're probably thinking to yourself, "oh well, that's great, at least he is happy". I respond with the idea that contrary to what most might believe, I don't do this for happiness. I have chosen to do this because it's about serving. It's about serving the teens that I have created great relationships with. It's about serving the people that find peace in their hearts. It's about serving the God who has made this blessed life possible. I make no excuses for who I am or what I have chosen to do. Should I have to answer to society? to what others might define success to be? To make excuses for why I don't subscribe to societal demands would only cheapen this vocation that I've been drawn to and gifted with. I'd rather live this life of great meaning.
Blessed Mother Theresa said, "we aren't called to success, we are called to holiness." I don't know about you, but I'd rather listen to a woman who has accomplished so many great things. I'd rather listen to her wisdom than to that of the average person who hates their job, their life, and their path.
I pray that you find what God has planned for you. I pray that you allow God to work in you. I pray that you allow God to help shape and polish you into the best version of yourself.
I love God. I love my girlfriend Izza. I love my family. I love my friends. I love this gift of life. And I can only say, "Thank you Most High!"

crazy!
very fortunate to have worked with him
in our tour. aside from being talented,
he's a cool guy as well. he's fun to
hang around, no dull moment i should
say... God speed jon!
wanted to say H-E-to tha double L-O
ski!" Those were the kinda message I
would always leave on Jonski's
voicemail and he would save em',
listen to em' over and over again, and
it would make him laugh. ha ha ha.
I've known Jon through church and it's
been 10 yrs already that has passed
by. He's a good friend and is
musically talented man. He's always
there for vincent when vinCEO needs
a "sunrise" in his day. hee hee. Even
though we hardly hang out nowadays cuz
we're all busy, I know i can depend on
Jonski. =)
business partners... Bayanco.com. But
Bayanco.com was a casualty of the
dotcom crash. Actually, we were the
FIRST casualty of the dotcom crash.
Hmmm ... or was it even before that.
Whether it be in theater, in movies, in
music, or in business, we'll be
partners again someday.
talented, well-cultured people I know.
He's always so passionate about and
dedicated to everything he does. Have
you heard him play the piano? He can
just go on and on...off the top.
nothing on Jon Malongdongdo. Got
Giant's tix?
you will ever meet. He's a great
speaker and has the highest sense of
quality with anything he works on.
He's truly passionate with his life
and will inspire you to be that way
too. One of his great talents is
pulling bs out of his ass at the very
last minute. Ragadio Dental.
others will contest and try to take the
spot, but I'm FO SHO IXD's #1 fan.
Y'all better step off! :) Jon Jon is
THE man...always been my friend,
confidant and the spiritual shoulder i
lean on. I love you brotha! Keep up
God's good work. PS: one day i swear i
will NOT fall for that poke my face
with your finger thing!
working together for a short period, my
bad about the job jon, to PCN, to being
a wingman, Jonward's always been an
inspiration and the type of guy who
will distract you from doing your
work. "No I'm the wingman!"
