Today, Sr. Aurea,OSB is a Year Older

Sister Aurea is truly a gifted person. She would be most known to be musically adept. We find her friendly, lighthearted and accommodating.

Her active work in the improvement of the celebration of the Eucharist at the church has been the path to my knowing her. I have been in the music ministry as a tenor and a guitarist of the Interlude Choir. Long have we been using the musical organ using pre-recorded accompaniments. There were times that we had to catch up on the accompaniments. Sister Au taught me to play the keyboard instrument, and after some months, I just found myself playing the instrument during masses. I could say, I am grateful and blessed by her coming here in Ipil. Who would have taught I could play the keyboard.

Last night, we celebrated her birthday at the church with Bishop Joy Tonnel and the Interlude Choir Family. It was truly a joyous time for Sister Au as she was cheerful with the gesture of love we showed her. Happy birthday Sister!

Angel turned 6 last Saturday; today, Dimple is 8.

Angel turned 6 last July 31, 2010. There was a lunch party at the house. The visitors were from IMAVEMCO, our neighbors and friends of Daday (Angel's mother).

Today, just this lunch time, some teachers of Dimple and Angel together with their friends came for the birthday lunch. The officemates of their mother from PEO also joined in. I invited two of my tennister buddies, Kenken and Jiji.

The parties were fun-filled celebrations as the kids really enjoyed the lunch. The celebrators also felt glad that they were given the lunch parties.
