SURPRISE!π₯ We may not have posted any announcement for our Culminating Activity, but that's because we wanted it to be a wonderful surprise for everyone!
βThe best surprises are the ones filled with joy, love, and unforgettable memories."
After ten meaningful and successful days of Vacation Church School 2026, we have finally reached the culmination of this beautiful journey! Guided by our theme,"Ako ay Kawangis ng Diyos" (1 Corinto 12:12β27), our children learned valuable lessons about God's love, their unique gifts, and the importance of being part of Christ's body. From Day 1 up to Day 10, every activity, lesson, song, game, and fellowship became a stepping stone in helping our young participants grow in faith and character. Behind this successful culmination were also four days of tiring yet rewarding preparations, practices, rehearsals, decorating, and countless efforts from our teachers, assistants, and volunteers. Every drop of sweat, every late practice, and every act of service became worthwhile as we witnessed the smiles, confidence, and wonderful performances of our children today. Truly, God has been faithful throughout our entire VCS journey.
Our hearts are overflowing with gratitude to everyone who helped make both the 10-day Vacation Church School and the Culminating Activity a success. We sincerely thank our snack sponsors throughout the VCS program β the sponsors from Districts 1β9 and the Bishops' Council β for generously providing food and refreshments for our children and workers. We also extend our heartfelt appreciation to our Culminating Activity sponsors: our FOOD SPONSORS β Kag. Anne Roa, Kag. Honey Pie Pisos-Abris, Chox Seno, and Jet Seno; our SUPPLIES SPONSORS β Kag. Ann Roa, Junalyn Morga, and Nancy Viray; our MONETARY SPONSORS β Kap. Edward Dampal and all IFI Mambatangan Members; and our FACILITY SPONSORβ Evelyn Alatao Racines. Your generosity, support, and kindness greatly contributed to the success of this ministry and brought joy to every child who participated.π€
We would also like to express our deepest appreciation to our dedicated teachers, assistant teachers, volunteers, parents, guardians, church workers, and especially Rev. Deacon Elpedio Paje IV for your guidance, encouragement, patience, hard work, and unwavering commitment throughout the entire VCS 2026 program. Your willingness to serve has made a lasting impact on the lives of our young learners.
As we close this year's Vacation Church School, we carry with us not only memories of fun and laughter but also the lessons of faith, unity, service, and God's endless love. The journey may have come to an end, but the seeds of faith planted in the hearts of our children will continue to grow for years to come.ππ»

To God be all the glory!
