Finally, together with my four classmates, we profess our Perpetual Vows last May 25, 2008, Sunday at the Holy Spirit Chapel of the Divine Word Seminary of Tagaytay. It was attended by several SVD priests, relatives, friends and guests. This year’s Representative of the Superior General in Rome and mass presider is Fr. Ernesto Lagura, SVD, who at present is a member of the Provincial Council of the SVD Southern Province.

Perpetual profession makes one a permanent member of the congregation. That is why, we say it is already “for life.”

***

I would like to thank the many people behind the celebration. Thank you also to the many visitors who came. More importantly, thank you so much to all countless others who storm heaven with their prayers for me each day. Pagpalain po kayo ng Diyos! Most of all, to God, my faithful God, for this gift of vocation…

CHRISTMAS PARTY LIKE NO OTHER December 8, 2007

Last December 3, the Divine Word School of Theology had its one-of-a-kind Christmas party. It was my first time to experience that kind of Christmas celebration in my whole life. The studentry decided to forego of the traditional exchanging of gifts. Instead of that, every class had to choose their beneficiary for their “Pasko sa Mukha ng Mga Dukha” outreach.
We, third year students of theology, had chosen the Bahay San Jose in Tagaytay as our beneficiary.

It is an institution taking care of those who are victims of polio and cerebral palsy. In their directory, this statement can be seen: “Bahay San Jose is a heaven of angels who inspire others, each other’s lives and encourage everyone who comes in to reflect, see, accept and live life as it is despite its different faces.”

We sang Christmas songs to them.

We also feed them.

This woman played the organ which moved us all to tears. The song was “Somewhere in Time.” Awww, it was hauntingly beautiful.

Jose, a polio victim, was feeding his friend and housemate.

Felmar and Filmar had good time together.

This is one experience I could never forget in my whole life. Since my grade school days, I have been used to celebrating Christmas in the classroom but this time, we really went out of our classrooms and celebrated it with the lovely beautiful people who lived life to the full despite their inabilities.

Grace and peace to everyone. Have a happy Christmas!

WALKING THROUGH HELL FOR A HEAVENLY CAUSE August 16, 2007

Whoa! Exams are indeed necessary evils! For these past few days, I was out of net connection and was spending intimate moments with my notes and volumes of books. I was spending day in and day out trying to put everything in my head to be able to equip myself in our midterm examinations. Ah, I could not imagine how I went through all those head-breaking examinations, both written and oral conducted by my professors.

I always describe examinations as “walking through hell for a heavenly cause.” Studying theology is really never easy. While I studied already the week before, I still had to review until the wee hours of the morning. Thanks to Red Bull, San Miguel Coffee and Maggi Cup Sarap (No Cook Porridge), I still had the energy for the next day. Whoa! Grabe! Written exams were like running after one’s life. Oral exams were like spending ten minutes in eternity.

Hayyy, I am still here, standing tall and proud after all. Maraming salamat sa inyong mga prayers. God bless you and have a happy weekend!
