His Excellency, Bishop Jose Oliveros confers the Diocesan Award to me during the fifth year of preparation for the Golden Jubilee of the Diocese of Malolos on March 12, 2011 at the Divine Mercy National Shrine. What touched me most (and made me cry also) was that Msgr. Bartolome Santos, our Parish Priest and Rector, was standing beside the Bishop during the awarding. I found out later that it was Msgr. Bart's idea to surprise me with the award. To my dear Parish Priest and Rector, THANK YOU for entrusting me various responsibilities in our Parish. I will never get tired of serving God. Thank you for this humble appreciation.

My gratitude goes to everyone who supported this year's Marian Procession in Honor of Our Lady of Fatima. Words are not enough to express my heart's overwhelming thanksgiving. Ang Mahal na Birhen at ang kanyang Anak, ang ating Panginoong Hesukristo ang siya nawang gumabay at magbigay ng kanilang pagpapala sa inyo at sa inyong mga mahal sa buhay.
