Bangkal parish produces PREX graduates anew

Twenty three laypeople from various GKK of the Our Lady of Lourdes Parish in Bangkal completed Batch 11 of the Parish Renewal Experience (PREX). The seminar was held at the parish seminar hall last January 22-24, 2016. Most of the speakers were members of PREX Bangkal.

“We were so blessed that we, in PREX Bangkal, have already developed our own pool of speakers,” said Ate Marlyn Lallen, Formation coordinator of PREX Bangkal. “We are expecting more speakers will be trained this year,” she continued.

PREX Bangkal has been shepherded by PREX Calinan since 2002. As PREX Bangkal Family was growing, so was the participation of the laypeople in respective GKKs of the parish.

“The experience was fun, memorable and meaningful; much more I understand my responsibility as a Catholic,” claimed one of the recent graduates. Among the graduates of Batch 11, Ate Celia Lim was elected as the Batch President with Ate Bebie Brasil as her Vice President. Ate Leah Bollina was chosen as the Secretary, while Ate Cathy Li was the Treasurer. (Vonz M. Hijada)
