Altar Servers enjoy a day of outing

27 May 2009. San Fabian - Several members of the Ministry of Altar Servers, together with Bro. Estephen Espinoza, went on a potluck outing on Wednesday, 27 May, in Boating World Resort at the DSC02881 San Fabian beachfront. A whole day of fun and laughter was shared among those who were able to join the outing, spending the day swimming, boating, and videoke-singing on such hot, sunny day.

The Ministry of Altar Servers is composed of girls and boys who come from the different private and public schools of San Fabian. Girl-altar servers joined the ministry only last 2004. Before this, the altar servers were only boys.

The altar servers do not only serve in all the masses of the parish but also join other liturgical celebrations such as processions and stations of the cross and the like.

The whole-day outing for the altar servers began at eight in the morning and lasted until six in the evening with the sacristans asking for a bit more time to soak in the water. Everyone went home with sun-kissed skin and with smiles gleaming like the playful waves of the beach.

The parish is calling on young girls and boys to join the ministry. He/she must have already received first communion. Meeting is scheduled every Saturday at 2:00 PM in the Parish Church.

PPC identifies Parish Projects

San Fabian. In a meeting by the members of the Parish Pastoral Council of the Parish of St. Fabian, Pope and Martyr, held last 20 May 2009, Wednesday at the Parish Rectory Hall, the PPC  identified and resolved to finish the following projects, in line with the Vicariate III celebration of the solemnity of Christ the King in which the parish is the host: the repair of the Parish Rectory Roof and the construction of a covered pathway which will link the parish church, the parish center and the Mt. Carmel Chapel.

The parish rectory was destroyed during the bombings by the American forces in the battle to liberate the Philippines from the Japanese forces. In a short article about the history of the Parish of St. Fabian, Msgr. Rafael S. Magno, Jr, a former parish priest of San Fabian, wrote: “The naval bombardments during the American-Japanese war for liberation in the early days of January 1945 significantly damaged the church and practically destroyed the convent; the bell tower crumbled in ruins.” (click here for the full article).

In 2003, after almost 58 years after the destruction of the belfry in 1945, the bell tower was fully restored. The restoration of the belfry was the project decided upon by the PPC when the Parish of St. Fabian hosted the Vicariate III celebration of Christ the King in 2003. The PPC would like to continue the full restoration of the church and the convent with the repair of the convent roof as it hosts once again the vicariate celebration of Christ the King.

The convent roof had been in disrepair for a while. After its destruction in 1945, the convent was repaired. But the roof that was in place was not in the design and structure before it was destroyed by the bombs. In 2008, during the onslaught of Typhoon Cosme, the convent roof was blown away by the strong winds. Hopefully, when the PPC undertakes the repair of the roof, its original design will be restored. Engr. Santiago Alhambra together with his committee members will supervise the repair of the convent roof. Since 1955, Engr. Santiago Alhambra, one of the parish lay leaders, does much of the planning and the supervision work of the parish projects.

Babasaen ya inaon ed Saray Gawgawa da ray Apostol

Pinablin Teofilo:

Diad samay inmonan libro ya insulat ko, insalaysay koy amin a ginagawa tan imbabangat nen Jesus, nanlapud impangigapo toy kimey to ya anggad agew na impakaitagey tod tawen. Kasakbayan na impakaitagey to, binilin tod panamegley na Ispiritu Santo iray pinili ton apostol. Kasumpal na impatey to, amimpigan nampapa-nengneng ed sikara, kanyan apaneknekan a tuan mabilay. Diad loob na apataploy agew, nampapanengneng ed sikara tan imbabangat to ray nipaakar ed Panariay Dios. Aminsan ed sarayan impantitipon da inkuanen Jesus, “Ag ki ni ontataynan ed Jerusalem, ta alagar yo niy asalitak lad sikayon insipay Amak. Nambinyag na saray totoo si Juan ed danum, balet ag mabayag, nabinyagan kayo ed Ispiritu Santo.”

Kanyan nen aminsan a nantitipon ira, tinepet dad kinen Jesus, “Katawan, ipawil mo la kasi natan ed Israel so Panarian?”

Inmebat si Jesus, “Saray panaon tan agew ya inggetar na Ama, diad pakayari ton dili, et ag la nakaukolan ya amtaen yo ra. Balet naitdan kayoy pakayari no onsabid sikayoy Ispiritu Santo, tan magmaliw kayon tasik ed Jerusalem, diad intiron Judea tan Samaria, tan diad amin a sokung na mundo.” Kapangibaga to ya, niatagey ed tawen leleg dan neneng-nengen, insan asaniban na lorem.

Akatangay ni rad tawen a sankanengneng day itataynan to nen kabebekta, duaran lalaki ya akakawes na ampoti so nanalagey ed abay da. “Sikayon lalaki a taga Galilea,” inkuanda, “akin et manalalagey kayon akatangay ed tawen? Sayan Jesus a nanlapud pegley yo tan niatagey ed tawen, et ompawil lamlamang a singa impakanengneng yod sikaton linma ed tawen.”
