Youth's Initiative: Sweepwalk, Keeping the City Clean

“It is for the cleanliness of our city.” A caption reads from one of the pictures posted in Mangkasanon Kami FB page about this "Sweepwalk".

"Sweepwalkers in action"

This has prompted some concerned youths of La Carlota City, who recently took their precious time sometime in the first week of January 2019 to do some cleaning in some parts of the city, particularly the plaza, some parts of the city streets like San Agustin, Yunque, and the Agora or the public market.

One hundred ten young men and young women volunteered this Sweepwalk community project. Kudos to them. They have displayed their sincere concern about the environment especially the cleanliness of the surrounding. This is for the cleanliness of their city as pointed out.

Family outing Keeps Family Together

The family outing is one of the activities we have had for 2019. We are alway hoping and have a strong faith that family can be together forever as what our Church has taught us. We keep on nurturing our relationship among us in our family. We are doing our best to keep our family as strong as ever and be united as opportunity says so.

It is our family tradition to go out for an outing every first day of the year. Yes, January 1 is our family day. We go out for a family outing to our favorite beach hangout. We spend our New Year to Soleo Beach, San Enrique, Negros Occidental.

We wear the Tshirt colored orange through the courtesy of our 3rd elder daughter, An An. Last year, we wore yellow Tshirt. And my 6 children were complete. But this year 2019, our eldest son, Dondon is not able to join with us. He is residing at Manalo Fortich, Bukidnon. His other 5 siblings are present: Dona, Gingging, An An, Gigi, and Toto Jun.

How Can You Make Father in Heaven Happy?

I have gained something spiritually worthwhile that is making Heavenly Father happy and being kind. from the two speakers we have this Sunday during the combined Sacrament meeting of La Carlota 1st and 2nd branches of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

La Carlota Meetinghouse

It's Christmas time. It is considered as the joyous seasons of the year. "It is the most wonderful time of the year," says the popular classic Christmas song.

For most Christians, it is the time of giving as what the Bible says, "it is more blessed to give than to receive." That is the true tradition of Christmas. That is to dispel the kids' attitude of receiving gifts from their parents, from their godparents, from their friends. It is pointed out that Christmas Day is Jesus' birthday and it is not their birthday why they should receive gifts. They are the one to give gifts to others especially the poor and the needy.

Christmas Belen Radiates More Joy Among La Carloteños

Nativity of Jesus or the Nativity which depicts the humble birth of Jesus in the stable of cattle in the City of Bethlehem becomes the very symbol of the great love of Heavenly Father. It could be easily understood and appreciated by the kids when it is played in a tableau.

Christmas Belen

Our local government finds it practical to put up Christmas Belen rather that Santa Claus with his reindeers and gifts, snow or Christmas tree which they couldn't be found here in our country. Instead, the prefer to have that Christmas Belen.

Christmas Belen is one of the Filipino traditions, in which the school children used to play it during their Christmas Party in a form of a tableau. Baby Jesus in a doll wrapped with white cloth placed in a pasungan, and kids take the role of Mother Mary, Father Joseph, the shepherds, the Magi, animals in the stable and angels are the usual scene in this Nativity.

The tableau is in one-act play with the narration of the Nativity scene from the Bible according to the gospel of Luke and Matthew.
