Family Day: A Spirit of Thanksgiving
On the Solemnity of the Three Kings Sunday last January 08, 2023 the GKK Servant Leaders (GSLs) of St. Mary of the Perpetual Rosary Parish, Buhangin gathered at the Parish Gym to celebrate Family Day. It is a gesture of gratitude of the Parish Priest, Rev. Fr. Dionisio Tabiliran to organize the said event for the untiring services rendered by the GSLs to their respective GKKs and to the Parish.
The GSLs were grouped according to their respective ministries. From the Pangulo sa Katilingban down to Social Communications Committee each GSL received a raffle ticket upon registration.
Rev. Fr. Dionisio Tabiliran gave his message stating that the Family Day symbolizes the importance of the relationship between the Parish and the GKKs. “Walay Parokya kung walay GKK ug walay GKK kung walay Parokya”, Fr. Diony said. He ended his message by thanking the sponsors, the Parish Pastoral Team and the GSLs for joining the 2023 Family Day.
Each ministry performed a dance presentation. The Pangulo sa Pagpanudlo were the first performers followed by Parish Youth Animators, then the Social Communication Committee, Pangulo sa Alagad, Pangulo sa Liturhiya and Pangulo sa Katilingban where they danced to Christmas Songs and also to some cha-cha songs.
After the presentations, lunch followed. At exactly 1:15p.m. the Parish Pastoral Team with the assistance of the Parish Social Action Ministry and the SoCCom conducted a raffle og prizes. A lot of minor prizes ranging from kitchenware to appliances were given and of course the much awaited major prizes namely the bed set and the 6 cubic refrigerator. The anticipation and the excitement of the crowd was overflowing during the said raffle.
Before the end of the program each GKK Servant Leader who participated received one food pack each. It ended at 3:30 in the afternoon and smiles, enjoyment and gratitude can be seen from the faces of everyone. (Allyza Hope Tabigue, GKK SoCCom | Photos: Awing Abanggan)
