PNRC Recognition

Bukal Life was invited to the recognition ceremony of the Philippine National Red Cross (Baguio Chapter) for its participation with the PNRC in seeking blood donations. In addition to blood donation, we have worked with them in disaster response chaplaincy, and partnering in training people in First Aid and Basic Life Savings. We had a good time and did some planning with the Red Cross for our next blood drive early in December. Will give more information soon.

Training at CCDC

Finished training at CCDC (Cordillera Career Development College) in Disaster Response Care/Chaplaincy. This was a one-day overview (not the full 40-hour program). Over 50 attended. We had a great time. Will put more photos on Bukal Life Ministries Facebook page

Picture 1 is students doing a combination of exercise and “movement” prayer led by Sister Sofia. Picture 2 is Ate Celia leading the didactic portion of the training.

CPE trainers and trainees.

Photo of 2010 Batch 2 CPE trainers and trainees. Eden and Gem were unable to be in the picture (Sayang!!) but Bernard, Sofia, Jheny, Celia, and Ptr. Joel were.

BTW, completed a smallgroup training in psychometric testing and learning styles with teachers from Immaculate Heart of Mary School in La Trinidad. We think it went well, and look forward to working with other schools in the Northern Philippines in this area.
