St. Scho Batch 83 Reunion Sa Kabukiran

Batch 83 Reunion Day Sa Kabukiran

Sometime in May 2016, a group of St. Scho Alumnae Batch 83 had their reunion at Sa Kabukiran. They started their day taking breakfast at Eileen Aquino's residence at Marquee Place in Angeles City. From there, they traveled by convoy to Magalang at Sa Kabukiran.
It was one of those rare moments when classmates got together not only to reminisce the old days but also to tell their own stories at the moment. Life indeed has made them grow. Both happy and challenging moments is what makes life really worth living! It was a day when, surrounded with the peaceful and quiet place Sa Kabukiran, they shared their stories with one another, reflecting for a moment how they have dealt with life as best as they can. The sharing was lovely and very enriching. These small but well bonded group experienced a deeper bonding they've never had in all their years as long time classmates. Here we share a few of their pictures taken with Mt. Arayat as a back drop.

The group has asked me to facilitate a kind of retreat for them. The facilitation was not difficult as these ladies have been in touch with one another for a number of years. I've heard that they will be celebrating their silver jubilee as Alumnae of St. Scho. They are also batch mates of my sister Gina. The group was organized by Beng Tanglao and Eileen Aquino.

Remembering Mom's Third Death Anniversary

In June 27, 2016, we remembered Mommy's third death anniversary here at Sa Kabukiran. This whole place is practically dedicated to her memory. The name Sa Kabukiran comes from her favorite song, Sa Kabukiran sang by Sylvia La Torre. A special Kubo was made in memory of her. It was here where we celebrated her memory and life by praying together as a family and with our close relatives.

MQC recollection at Sa Kabukiran

MQC students hold their annual recollection at Sa Kabukiran. For five consecutive Saturdays and Sundays, students attended an overnight recollection by batches.
Here are pictures of some of these students. The recollection was facilitated by Manny Masaclao, a theology teacher at MQC. The recollections were held at the Lolita B. Lapid Hall of Sa Kabukiran.

Three Ladies visit the garden of Eden

Sa Kabukiran had three visitors lately. They were organized by Jen Basilio Dayag.  I wasn't there to meet them. But judging from the pictures they sent me through a common friend, Aries, I could imagine that they've enjoyed every bit of time Sa Kabukiran. I really loved their pictures. They were beautiful pictures. It really highlighted the natural beauty of the place. I'm sharing these now so you too can enjoy the peaceful and serene beauty of Sa Kabukiran.
