                  After the Mass, program and reception followed at Villa Inmaculada, Intramuros.  Msgr. Vicente D. Bauson, Director, Campus Ministry-Archdiocese of Manila in his Pearl Anniversary Message mentioned that this occasion is a time not only to reminisce the good old times but also to affirm that the Campus Ministry has found the pearl of great price, the very person of Jesus encountered in the ministry’s efforts of building faith-communities on campus.  He reiterated that this is also the opportune time to celebrate in thanksgiving the abundant blessings God has bestowed on the ministry. He acknowledged the distinctive contributions of the different schools, congregations, organizations and individuals who have been instrumental in this ministry and have supported it through these years.  Lastly, ‘Monsi’ as Msgr. Bauson is fondly called, gave special acknowledgment to the past and present campus ministers and chaplains of the ministry and most especially gave praise to the Triune God.

Indeed the Campus Ministry on its 30th year of ministering on campus is
              Remembering the past with gratitude . . . .
                        Celebrating the present with joy . . . .    
                                  Moving into the future with deep trust and confidence in  
                                  God , Who is ever faithful.

CAMPUS MINISTERS IN BAGUIO..

Ten religious campus ministers attended the seminar-workshop “Prophets to the Young” from June 12-15, 2009 at Mount of Peace Retreat House, Baguio City.

            “Prophets to the Young” is an initial formative journey of the new religious campus ministers who are called to explore and express the religious prophecy to the young generation of today.  This is a journey of discovering the call of the religious campus minister to live out the prophecy in a post-modern world.

            The new religious campus ministers have found this seminar-workshop helpful in terms of providing a vision and a sense of direction that will encourage and guide the other members of the academic community to contribute in the building of a faith-community on campus.
