Grand Alumni Homecoming is about CONNECTION

Hello, Fellow Aloysians!

How are you?

Last week, I’ve posted about Revival.  Today, I’m going to share with you my second word on the question: "What is Grand Alumni Homecoming for you in 3 words?"

2. Connection.


It is so great to chat with friends, dorm mates, classmates, batch mates you haven’t seen in a long time. Meet new friends from other batch. There’s not a space where you don’t share a common denominator. Be it 1st batch, 12th batch or 26th batch, when you talk about your life in SOM, lahat nakakarelate.







                                                                                                  We were having breakfast with my friend and dorm mate when beauties from 7th batch came. They told stories on how they were so makulet before, mga kalokohan nila and how they were all reshuffled when they were already in their senior year. (Aw!)We enjoyed our breakfast while we share our stories and laugh at our own kalokohan before. Haha.

Of course to immortalize the moment, a lot of photos have been captured during the GAH. Hehe.

But what makes GAH more meaningful is the incomparable joy of visiting father Al and saying a prayer of thanksgiving. It is one of the many little ways we can do to show our love to the one who became God’s instrument in transforming our lives.

As we continue to share our stories to our friends, dorm mates and classmates, let us also connect to father Al through prayer. Tell our stories of struggles and success. I’m sure he’ll be glad and be very willing to listen and give advice whenever necessary. Ask for his intercession. Also, let us be united in praying for his beatification and canonization to our amazing God!


Friend, what baon (experiences) did you take home after the GAH? You may want to let us also know. Feel free to share your answer/s below.

Live to the fullest! Spread light! Transform lives!
