Parish Outing 2008


The Parish Outing for this year was held last Saturday, April 5, at Villa Fortunata Resort, Nasugbu, Batangas. The owner of the resort, Joey and Celine Perpinan, were very kind and generous enough to close the resort for our exclusive use. I got to know Joey and Celine through Sis. Chat Cance. Their children, Kyle and Queenie, were classmates in high school. They toured us around the resort while it was still undergoing renovation last March.

The buses and the vans left MMJP around 5:30am. I was not able to leave early since I was tasked by the Cardinal to be the main presider of the MAGPAS mass in Paco. I arrived in the resort around noon and found everyone enjoying their day: swimming in the pool and in the beach, singing videoke, playing volleybal and frisbee, or simply frolicking under the sun. I guess I don't have to write anything more. Just look at the pictures and see for yourselves.

The Parish Outing 2008 was a very succesful activity of the parish which Edith and I failed to attend due to some unavoidable appointments. With the happy smiles of everybody in the beach and in the pool, it was indeed a very enjoyable leisure of swimming and fun promoting solidarity and fellowship. We missed the outing of course and with the many txt messages that we received from friends prior to the outing urging us to go was simply a sign of a good relationship between us in the service as laity in the parish. Edith and I were sorry to miss the event. Last year, we were able to enjoy the parish outing in Bagac, Bataan and we even had the chance to meet the famous Bishop Soc Villegas where he prepared a banguet especially for all of us.
