CFD Intensifies Catechism in OLGP
1 Peter 3:15, says “But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.” The said verse is one of the building blocks of a Catholic Faith Defender, which is imprinted on their heart, mind, body, and soul.
With the intensified need for catechism and the search for truth, The Catholic Faith Defenders of the Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish conducted their Strategic Planning last January 21-22, 2023 at Isla Reta Beach Resort, Barangay Sta. Cruz, Talicud Island, Island Garden City of Samal with the blessing of the chapter’s Spiritual Director and Parish Priest, Rev. Fr. Leif M. Simbajon.
A Team Building activity started the whole event which aimed to strengthen the relationship of the officers. Followed by Synodality Sharing and Introduction to Strategic Planning. Different committees were established and initial plans were identified.
The main agenda for the said event is Strategic Planning which was facilitated by Bro. Ryan Mejillano, CFD National President and Chapter’s Adviser. The planning started with the holy rosary followed by Bible Enthronement. A SWOT analysis was conducted and right after each committee presented their plans, along with their objectives, timeline, and materials needed to achieve implementation of the said plans.
The group’s priority after the strategic planning is to enlighten more parishioners especially in their religious lives. In addition, the chapter is also open in providing assistance to the different parishes who wish to establish their own Catholic Faith Defenders Chapter, they can reach out to the group’s official social media page Catholic Faith Defenders-Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish Chapter.
