NVGCHS Batch 1988 Alumni Association

Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya 

VISIONNVGCHS Batch 1988 Alumni Association located in Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya envisions its members in the Philippines and abroad as God-loving, Resilient, Accessible, Committed, Enthusiastic and Service-oriented individuals for the needy and the environment (Simply, NVGCHS Batch 1988 as G.R.A.C.E.S. for the needy and the environment.) MISSIONThe mission of NVGCHS Batch 1988 Alumni Association is to link and connect with generous alumni, individuals and organizations to realize its pro-poor and pro-environment programs and projects. PROGRAMS, ACTIVITIES, AND PROJECTS

As such, we will capture the following as yearly activities and establish them as NVGCHS Batch 1988 Alumni G.R.A.C.E.S. programs

1. Feeding Program in Schools (drop out reduction). There are still many kids who go to school hungry and cannot concentrate in their lessons because “the brain cannot function well with an empty stomach”.

2. Livelihood Training / Assistance for MARGINALIZED/Out-of-School Youth / Batchmates. We need to reach-out to the YOUTH who are out of school by giving them livelihood training like “puto at kutsinta making” and “longganisa and tocino making”. This will also be extended to less fortunate classmates.

3. Simple Literacy help for the Out-of-School Youths who are Non-readers and Non-writers. Sad to note that there are teenagers and adults who cannot read and write. It is

our desire to reach them out to extend assistance for them to fix their simple literacy skills.

4. Environmental Deeds and Cultural Advocacies. We also intend to educate the kids not in school on how to protect the environment and to respect other cultures.

5. Pamaskong Handog Para sa Mahihirap. We also like to bring God closer to the hearts of our poor kids. As such, we will provide simple gifts with the learning that God makes miracles for them.

6. School Supplies Assistance for 5 Very Poor Grade VII NVGCHS Students. The students will be chosen by (a) School Principal / Guidance Counselor, (b) Faculty Club President, (c) PTA President/Representative. Priorities are extended to very poor kids of batch mates.

7. Financial Rescue for 5 Very Poor Grade 10/12 with Outstanding Balance in PTA and with High Chance of Success in College / at TESDA (average of at least 80, NCAE of at least 70).

Reading 11 JN 1:5—2:2

Beloved:This is the message that we have heard from Jesus Christand proclaim to you:God is light, and in him there is no darkness at all.If we say, “We have fellowship with him,” while we continue to walk in darkness,we lie and do not act in truth.But if we walk in the light as he is in the light,then we have fellowship with one another,and the Blood of his Son Jesus cleanses us from all sin.If we say, “We are without sin,”we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.If we acknowledge our sins, he is faithful and

just and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from every wrongdoing.If we say, “We have not sinned,” we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

My children, I am writing this to youso that you may not commit sin.But if anyone does sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous one.He is expiation for our sins,and not for our sins only but for those of the whole world.

Responsorial PsalmPS 124:2-3, 4-5, 7CD-8

R. (7) Our soul has been rescued like a bird from the fowler’s snare.Had not the LORD been with us—When men rose up against us,then would they have swallowed us alive,When their fury was inflamed against us.R. Our soul has been rescued like a bird from the fowler’s snare.

Then would the waters have overwhelmed us;The torrent would have swept over us;over us then would have swept the raging waters.R. Our soul has been rescued like a bird from the

fowler’s snare.

Broken was the snare,and we were freed.Our help is in the name of the LORD,who made heaven and earth.R. Our soul has been rescued like a bird from the fowler’s snare.

Gospel MT 2:13-18When the magi had departed, behold,the angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said,“Rise, take the child and his mother, flee to Egypt,and stay there until I tell you.Herod is going to search for the child to destroy him.”Joseph rose and took the child and his mother by nightand departed for Egypt.He stayed there until the death of Herod,that what the Lord had said through the prophet might be fulfilled,Out of Egypt I called my son.

When Herod realized that he had been deceived by the magi,he became furious.He ordered the massacre of all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinitytwo years old and under,in accordance with the time he had ascertained

from the magi.Then was fulfilled what had been said through Jeremiah the prophet:

A voice was heard in Ramah,sobbing and loud lamentation;Rachel weeping for her children,and she would not be consoled,since they were no more.
