Congratulations to CPE 2010 batch 2 Graduates

Congratulations to those who have completed batch 2 (June-August) of our CPE internship. Some were working on the full CPE, while others were working on the extended program or working towards certification. Congrats to Bernard, Gem, Jheny, Eden, Sofia, and Celia!!

There internship ended with a weeklong pastoral care and training project with the Saint Mary’s School and the Episcopal parish in Sagada, Mountain Province. Thanks to all for making the visit so productive and enjoyable.

Food for Thought

“Helping people get a life is the hardest work God does. That’s true for us as well. Partnering with him on this mission signs you up for disappointment, challenge, pain grief, and loss as you deal with people. But it also sets you up for exhilaration, joy, hope, and abundant life. That’s life. And that’s the point.” -Reggie McNeal (in “Missional Renaissance: Changing the Scorecard for the Church”)

August Update

As of today (August 2), the CPE Pastoral Care team has safely arrived in Sagada (Mountain Province). They will be doing pastoral care ministry as well as training.

It looks like we may be moving our teacher training to September. we got ourselves buried in work and have also been asked to do some more training at another school. Will update as soon as we know details.

The ARTICLES section of http://www.bukallife.org is fixed. Thanks Mike!!

Training Week Done

Finished Training with Students Leaders from Baguio Patriotic School. Over 150 students between grade 4 and 4th year were there. Great time.  Photos are available on Facebook for “Bukal Life Ministries”.

Preparing for pastoral care (CPE) trip to Sagada, August 2 – 6.

Values and Leadership Training

We are working with Patriotic School in Baguio in doing values and leadership training with students leaders. We have  worked on spiritual emphasis training at Union International School earlier this year, but this will be different. It will be July 27-30. Should be a wonderful opportunity to reach out and help the next generation.

Pastoral Care Ministry Trip Planned

Our CPE Ministry Team is planning to be in Sagada, Mountain Province, (God willing and weather permitting), August 2-6. This is a time of ministry in the local hospital there, as well as a time of intense training, and (yes) refreshment.
