DIVINE WORD MISSIONARIES COMMON JUBILEE 2009

Every year the Divine Word Missionaries (SVD) assigned in the northern part of the country (PHN) gather together for a common jubilee celebration. This year’s (November 12-13, 2009) gathering started with a basketball game between the Junior (15 years and below in perpetual vows) and Senior (16 years and above) SVDs.  The final score showed that the older missionaries are ahead not only in wisdom but in ball shooting. In the evening, before the so-called socialization, a prayer service in front of the SVD Provincial House was led by Fr. Jesus del Rosario, SVD, a Jubilarian. Then it was followed by the blessing of the newly constructed Cagutongan “grotto”  of St. Arnold Janssen and St. Joseph Freinademetz, SVD.
