July 1, 2009 — a mission began, not by choice, but by faith. From humble beginnings, doubts, and challenges, Rev. Fr. Odine L. Ar**la chose to believe: “If you build it, they will come.”
Through concerts, raffles, and unwavering faith, he built more than structures; he built a community. From 686 students to a growing institution, from being called “Burutas” to becoming proud "Veritans", his vision gave VCI its identity, dignity, and purpose.
Seventeen years of service. Seven buildings standing. Seven programs thriving. One mission that never wavered.
Thank you, Fr. Odine, for your faith, leadership, and legacy.
