3. On June 9th we had the final graduation for the latest CPE/T trainees. These were led by Sister Sofia and Doc Sim.

Exciting things are happening. Thanks to all for their dedication to expanding pastoral care and counseling in Manila. We are excited about also extending ministry to Cagayan de Oro in the next few months. Stand by for more info on that in the next few weeks.
