112th Anniversary of Philippine Independence! Mabuhay ka Inang Bayan!

Today, marks the 112th Anniversary of Philippine Independence!  This will be also the last Independence Day celebration of the current administration and President, Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.

By June 30, the President-Elect Benigno 'Noynoy' Aquino will begin his reign as the 15th President of the Republic of the Philippines.

May this be a new beginning for our beloved country and I just hope and pray that the new leaders of our country will lead by example and live out to their promises during the campaign period.

Let's work together for a BETTER and truly FREE Philippines! Let's not waste the freedom that our forefathers hardly fought for with their sweat and blood.

Maligayang araw ng KALAYAAN! Mabuhay tayong lahat! and may God Bless the Philippines! c",)

ASMSI Ninetyniners - Habol sa Summer Outing 2010

It all started sometime during the Summer of 2006, small group meetings, malling and bonding, then before that summer ends (May 27 & 28, 2006), a batch outing was organized dubbed as Batch '99 Habol sa Summer Outing with the theme "Pinag-isa ng kahapon, tatayong magkabigkis sa mga darating pang taon". Even if that first bonding of our batch did not ended well due to an unfortunate event that's beyond our control it does not put an end either instead it makes the bond that we are trying to make grow stronger.

From then on it became a tradition of our batch to hold a Summer Outing as well as Christmas Party Outing.

Last year (March 2009) our batch successfully hosted the ASMSI Grand Alumni Homecoming 2009 and the 24th Foundation Day and Childrens' Birthday (August 2009) of the Sisters of Mary School Boystown and Girlstown campuses in Silang Cavite.

And this year as the summer ends and rainy season begins, we will hold our Annual Batch Summer Outing - Unang Hataw sa Tag-ulan! (its not yet too late though, our summer become very busy with the elections and other things)

For more info please visit our Yahoo Group at: ASMSI Ninetyniners and our FB Group at: ASMSI Ninetyniners or you may visit our thread at the ASMSI website.

I'm hoping to see as many of my batchmates as possible!  Thank you very much!

Brothers of Christ - Sharing Christ Home

Tagle, D.D. of the Diocese of Imus presided over the Eucharistic Celebration and Blessing of the newly constructed  Sharing Christ Home - A home for the elderly, mentally-challenged & out-of-school youth located at Brgy. Biclatan, Gen. Trias Cavite, Philippines.

The Brothers of Christ (similar to the Sisters of Mary) is a religious congregation founded by the Servant of God Msgr. Aloysius Schwartz, an American missionary priest in Seoul, Korea on May 10, 1981, to respond to the reality of poverty, suffering and deprivation of the poorest of the poor.

In the Philippines, seeing the needs of the society especially to the physically and mentally-challenged and the out-of-school youth, Bro. Matthew Gu, together with the Filipino Brothers, established the Brothers of Christ of Banneux, Inc. (BCBI) in order to serve this underprivileged people. The institution is a non-stock, non-profit corporation that provides residential care for the poorest of the poor. It will be maintained and supported by grants, donations, gifts and bequests from noble, selfless and well-meaning persons and entities locally and internationally.
