Showing here is the official portrait of Simba-Aralan sa Kapilya ng Bitik.
The central figure shows a seated Our Lady as Mary Help of Christians, patroness of Bitik SPPC with the Child Jesus; the Child Jesus with an open Bible on His lap and with His extended hands that seemingly preaching, while Our Lady is pointing her fingers towards the Child Jesus, an allusion to her role as hodegetria, "she who shows the way," as if She is saying, "listen to my Son."
Behind Our Lady and the Child Jesus is an open window showing the Bitik Chapel as one of the venues of Simba-Aralan. The right side shows a wall decorated with framed pictures of model saints for the youth: Saint Carlo Acutis, Saints Francisco and Jacinta Marto, and Saint Dominic Savio of the Salesians. An altar can be seen below the framed pictures, with an image of Saint John Bosco, "the Father and Teacher of the Youth" and founder of the Salesian Order. The wall on the left side shows the official portrait of Simba-Aralan of the Diocese of Malolos. Underneath is a flowering sampaguita plant, an allusion to the goal of Simba-Aralan: to cultivate and develop a thriving youth of today by means of teaching and reinvigorating their knowledge on their faith.
Encircling Our Lady and the Child Jesus are eighteen young children listening attentively to the teachings of the Child Jesus, representing two youths from the nine areas of Bitik SPPC.
Let us support the Simba-Aralan of the Diocese of Malolos.
