SMS Philippines Silver Anniversary on August 15, 2010

August 15, 2010 - will mark the 25 years of existence of the Sisters of Mary in the Philipines.

The Sisters of Mary is an institution offering free technical & vocational high school education to poor yet deserving students here in the Philippines. It has 2 campuses in Cebu and 2 in Cavite. It was founded by a good-hearted American priest, the late Msgr. Aloysius Schwartz. His generosity of helping the poorest of the poor led a way of opening the process for his beatification and canonization which means he is now a candidate for Sainthood.

CONGRATULATIONS!

Efren Penaflorida - CNN Hero of the Year 2009!

Peñaflorida was awarded during the CNN Heroes: An All-Star Tribute at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood. He received his award from American actress Eva Mendes. He bested nine other nominees from different countries for the Hero of the Year award. The nominees were initially selected by a panel of 14 “Blue Panel” luminaries but the Hero of the Year award is given to the one with the most number of online votes in the CNN Heroes website.

Mabuhay ka Efren! May you be an inspiration to all of us in serving well and serving our fellow brothers and sisters. God bless you & your DTC volunteers!

Thank God! It's my Birthday!

Today is my 28th birthday! (I stated it already for you not to ask me how old I am.)

Thank you very much to all who remembered this special day when I was brought into this world. Whew! I've got a busy day answering text, call, e-mails and even facebook and friendster greetings as well as those who greet me thru ASMSI forum.

It feels great to learn that a lot of you (my friends and family members) remember me and throw every kind of messages and wishes for me. My only wish is that may all your wishes for me do come true. =).

I ended the day by attending mass at The Philippine Centre for St. Pio of Pietrelcina, Inc. in Libis, Quezon City and THANK the LORD for a busy and fruitful year that was.

It's great to know also that today is the feast day of one of the great pope in history, St. Leo the Great .

Thank you Lord! God Bless us all!
