May 2-6: Children's Camp at Rosa Mystica Chapel grounds
One hundred and fifteen children attended the summer camp. The participants came from South Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, Sarangani and General Santos City. Discipline was the top priority of the camp and it was very rewarding to see children keeping silence in the Church during prayer and Holy Mass. The main theme of the camp was the meaning of the Fatima apparitions. Children were divided according to their knowledge of the catechism. There was a class for basic catechism and a class on the History and Significance of the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima.
Forty facilitators directed by Rev. Fr. Timothy Pfeiffer assisted in the camp as catechists and teacher aides, food service, maintenance, and security crew. Among the facilitators were 3 Sisters and 2 Brothers of the Society of St. Pius X. There were facilitators from Bohol, Cagayan de Oro, Butuan, Agusan and Davao.
Our heartfelt gratitude to all who have supported the camp by prayers, voluntary service, monetary assistance and food gifts. Thank you and God bless you all.
