Are you one of those Aloysians who attended the Grand Alumni Homecoming (GAH) 2015?

If your answer is yes, then I bet you also have your story to share.

Let me share with you what is GAH for me in 3 words:

REVIVAL, CONNECTION & SERVICE.

1. REVIVAL.

GAH was an event filled with purpose, fun and a unique sense of energy.

No escape for rekindling of memories.

An exchange of Hugs and unending questions.

“Musta ka na?” “Tagal na nating di nagkita.”

“San ka na ngayon?”

“Ano nang ginagawa mo?”

….and the unending exchange of conversations goes on.

It has been 6 years and 3 months when we parted ways and said goodbye to high school life.

And yes, there is no place like home. The feeling to be back after how many years. The feeling of seeing familiar faces. People you’ve shared your precious 4 years in high school. Eating the same food, wearing the same designs of clothes, and sharing your stories during eating time. Oh, the moment was priceless!

Be the light of the world.

Add to that the celebration of the Holy Mass with an inspiring message from the priest. Father said, “Father Al is one of the instruments who gave light. He allowed himself to be consumed by the light. “

“We are all called by God to continually give light to others.”

“Let us allow ourselves to be consumed by the light of love.”

“Let us turn to God who is light. Be a living instrument and give light to others.”

I was truly revived, renewed and empowered.
