Miscellaneous Happenings

Breezing into town just recently was our dear friend from Seattle, Washington, USA, Cesar T. Luna. The last time he visited Cebu was nine years ago. Now that he has retired from his job, he decided to stay put in his home in Seattle since he realized that the benefits he’ll get from the government as a citizen (like medicines and hospitalization) is only enjoyed in the US. Reason that Cesar will only come to visit. His younger sister Fe Ornopia is residing in Kansas City, USA.

Members of the Beautiful Cebu Movement were in attendance, and of course, Kit’s ever supportive hubby Carlos Yeung. Carlos has greatly contributed to the  success of BCMFI.

Last Sunday was Father’s Day. And the Jesu Christi Community of Cebu, Inc. an active Charismatic group headed by Rev. Fr. Socrates Saldua, had all the fathers-members of the community prayed over by Fr. Soc. God bless them always!
