Everybody enjoyed the party, it was a Fun Day. “Happy Always Merry Everything.”
SECDEA here we come — the area is pristine that all were dazzled by the beauty of nature. God is so good in creating such remarkable scenery.
The accommodation offered is perfect, the food is so delicious and the ambiance is so serene, pollution free and we could hear the humming of birds from the distance. Flowers of various colors can be seen, captivating the hearts of everyone while guessing the kind of specie each represents.
Majority of the group explored the area, enjoyed the pool and the invitation of a clear and moving water from the sea is so tempting that the beach goers never hesitated in testing the cool water.
We gathered together once more in an exclusive area to listen the touching invocation led by Mrs. Adelaida S. Panaguiton.
Parlor games followed, participated in by those with strong legs and from the group that can still compete with the young generation.
The games generated group idea, communication, unity and planning. If there is communication from among the members of the team, certainly positive results are generated. Planning is one aspect that will help build a strong structure out of straws used as materials.
After the whole afternoon of joy and camaraderie, every one went home full of memories. The gap between the BOD officials and the staffs had completely reduced and apprehension over dealing with officers regarding office work was left in oblivion. The staffs have realized that officials indeed are down to earth, humane and can help alleviate whatever difficult task assigned to each.
All year round Christmas party is an activity that no office can ever ignore from its calendar. This is the time for us to welcome the coming of our Lord, reminding us of His life here on earth and the joy of embracing His teachings. We have learned the joy of sharing not only during the time of happiness but sufferings where our faith is being put to test.
For year 2015, our association is so blessed with the graces received through His intervention and as an indication of appreciation we honor and glorify His name for such blessings.
