<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">It is the time of the year to celebrate the coming of the
Lord. Advent prepares us to celebrate Christmas
with renewed and deeper appreciation for that great mystery that happened more
than two thousand years ago when God gave us his Son, Jesus Christ our
Lord. It should lead us to a better
understanding of the history of salvation bringing a sense of awe and wonder.
It should also lead us to a new longing for Christ. “Like
the deer that yearns for running streams, so my soul is yearning for you, my
God. My soul is thirsting for God, the God of my life” (Ps 42,1f).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

final coming of Jesus Christ in glory.
The second coming is connected with the mystery of the incarnation, in
fact it is its fulfillment. We
Christians are a waiting people, but unlike in the Old Testament, we are
waiting for the fullness of his kingdom.
We and the whole world are still badly in need of liberation and
redemption. Therefore the Advent Season
is always a time of great joy!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Thank you for attending the Prayer Session last Sunday, November 18,
2012. The Holy Hour for Vocations and
the Eucharistic Celebration are our community celebrations of our “faith.” Please continue to pray for vocations with
us, and join us again for the next Prayer Session on December 15 (Saturday) at
9:30 AM. It will also be our Family
Christmas Party. Please bring with you
your entire family, including grandparents and small children. We shall have games and prizes!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Allow me to summarize the points that we have discussed during our
meeting last Sunday. The first is about
our formation in the seminary. I invited
you to look at the most important and central value for all our programs,
projects and labors. When we improve the
facilities, do sacrifices, make changes – all of these are geared to improve
and promote a well-integrated formation for our seminarians, future priests of
the Church, as envisioned by our Vision-Mission in the seminary and our Holy
Mother Church. If we forget about this
then our efforts become misdirected. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Secondly, our discussion about the grades of your seminarian-sons. We congratulate the Dean’s Listers. Grades do not make a person. They should never be considered as the gauge
of a person’s worth or even give him a sense of identity. Rather these grades reflect the mental
capacity, hard work and discipline, proper time management and the quality of
our teachers and academic program in the seminary. Somehow, we need intellectually equipped
seminarians so that they can be ready for their further studies in
Theology. In college, the Commission on
Higher Education (CHEd) and the Episcopal Commission on Seminaries advise us
that our students must get to know and master all the basics, especially in the
area of our specialization which is Philosophy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">Let me combine the fourth and
fifth points. Please know that as Rector
I am also holding the positions of Dean of Studies and Procurator. Because of these responsibilities, I have
journeyed with you in the past months also with details about our projects and
budget. I also mentioned two fundraising
drives. One for you, the BIGAS and the
Friends of MHCCS for financial donations, and two, the “Helping Hearts” which
is for our friends and benefactors who would support us with one thousand peso
donation every semester. My intention of informing and involving you (in) all
these is transparency. I believe that as
stewards, we have to consider co-responsibility seriously.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">For this reason (and many other
reasons), our team of formators has decided to create the “Mary Help of
Christians College Seminary Parents Association” or MHCCS-PA. We propose that we shall create an Ad-Hoc
Committee to draft a Constitution (December), elect the first set of officers
(January) and induct them (February).
Their “advisory” role will be very crucial especially in matter of
finances and formation concerns. I thank
you very much for giving a unanimous consent to this proposal during our
meeting.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

us.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">Dear Fathers, Parents, Guardians, Seminarians and Friends,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Today we officially end our first semester of the current school
year. We celebrated yesterday by the
Talent Show of our Seminarians aptly entitled, “Gifts.” Truly we thank God for the gift of 67
vocations that God has given to the Church.
We appreciate their giftedness and we promise our prayers and support
for their perseverance in the seminary formation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">We also launched our new fund-raising drive called “Helping Hearts of
the Mary Help of Christians College Seminary” or MHCCS-HH. Yesterday more 50 pledges came from our generous
guests who promised to support our formation programs by giving one thousand
pesos every semester. This will help us,
not only in the maintenance of our facilities, but moreso for the formation
programs that are our top priorities in the seminary.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">Our seminarians are expected to return to the seminary on November
2, and the first activity for your family is the November 18 Prayer
Session. The Holy Hour starts at 9:30AM as
usual and it will be followed by the Holy Eucharist to be sponsored by the
Sophomore Class. There will be a
Spiritual Conference for the Families of the Seminarians in the afternoon. Therefore not only the parents are encouraged
to attend but your entire family. It is
now seen that your presence to these Prayer Sessions are very important for the
vocations of your seminarian-sons.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Coming up this November is the “Blessed John Paul II Philosophy Week”
from November 29-30. More than 8 college
seminaries from Northern Luzon are converging in Bonuan Seminary for this very
important academic event.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">Finally as your seminarian-sons go home, let me again remind you
to spend quality time with them and accompany them especially in their prayers
and attendance at Holy Masses. I also
repeat that medical and dental check-ups are to be scheduled during the
semestral break. Your children are seminarians
and they should not be encouraged to live in too much comfort and care. The spirit of sacrifice must always be
inculcated in their hearts in view of their future ministry especially to the
poor. Nonetheless, the vacation should
truly be a time for rest, relaxation and recreation for them so that they may
be ready to face another challenge this coming second semester.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-top: 12.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">May Mary, Help of Christians, always
pray for us.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<i><span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">“Ego Catholicus sum et animo prompto paratoque

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-top: 12.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Filipino Catechism has
these words upon the death of San Lorenzo Ruiz, Filipino proto-martyr which can
be translated as, “I am a Catholic and wholeheartedly do accept death for the
Lord; If I had a thousand lives, all these I shall offer to Him.” May the faith and martyrdom of the first
Filipino Saint, whose feast we celebrate today, inspire us in following and
serving the same Lord.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-top: 12.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">By happy coincidence,
there is another good news. On October
21, 2012, a second Saint who is also Filipino will be canonized, Blessed Pedro
Calungsod – a sacristan and catechist!
He offered his life in order to save the life of a missionary priest,
Blessed Diego Sanvitores in Guam. </span><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;"> Blessed John Paul II declared, “</span></span><span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">In a spirit of faith,
marked by strong Eucharistic and Marian devotion</span><span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">, Pedro undertook the demanding work asked of him and bravely
faced the many obstacles and difficulties he met. In the face of imminent
danger, Pedro would not forsake Fr. Diego, but as a good soldier of Christ
preferred to die at the missionary's side.”
St. Pedro Calungsod, pray for us!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-top: 12.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Also today, we remember in a very special way our
dear Archbishop, we fondly call <i>Father
Soc</i>. We thank God for the gift of a wonderful,
fatherly and saintly shepherd of souls in our Archdiocese. His great love for the seminarians is
manifested by his very personal approach and knowledge of them. He said that if we open his heart, the
seminary will be in it. Our seminary
community prays for him and keep him very close to our hearts, too.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-top: 12.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">As a personal note, I end my 7 years at the Lay
Formation Center also today. I thank God
for the gift of ministry to an important area in the life of the Church in the
Archdiocese. I shall now be a fulltime
Rector of the College Seminary. It is
really difficult to maintain two houses, now I have only one and I shall work
harder, with your cooperation, to make the seminary a better home. Heaven is where God is – Where God is, is
Heaven! Help us make the seminary “God-ful…”
heavenly.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">The seminary aims at forming men
of virtue, of human excellence and goodness <br />
of character, founded on psycho-emotional integration, and modeled on Christ’s
example <br />
of authentic humanity. Seminary formation aims at forming men with a deep
understanding of the mysteries of the faith, a capacity for ongoing theological
reflection, and pastoral skills and competence, in the context of Church and
society in the Philippines and Asia, for the sake of the mission of
evangelization. </span></i><span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">(From

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">The above mentioned description of seminary formation tells us
that our future priests must be well-integrated and also knowledgeable. All the aspects of seminary formation are important
and it is necessary to maintain some balance.
While spiritual and human formation is very important, it does not mean
that physical or academic formation is not important. The last two weeks of the semester are
crucial in our seminary program this year.
We shall have evaluations about our community life, but it is also the
period for final examinations. Let us
please support and keep our seminarians in prayer.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">Finally, as the Procurator of the seminary, I may be embarrassed
to do this frequent reminder but I am obliged to. Our accounts payable as of today is more than
one million and ninety-four thousand pesos.
Since our seminary is non-profit, we cannot continue to provide for the
needs of the seminarians without sufficient funds. Please understand our situation for the
common good of the community. Pay in
full immediately or at least one half of your remaining bill and the rest
before the final exams.<i><o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">On October 14, our seminarians will be home for their semestral
vacation which will be until November 4.
During this period all medical and dental appointments must be
scheduled, and if possible personal or family visits and trips done. Our second semester will be short and filled
with activities and programs which I am sure you and your seminarian-son would
not want to miss. This includes our
Philosophy Week (November) and Musical-Drama on the Life of St. John the
Evangelist (February). We also
anticipate your presence to our Prayer Sessions when there will be Family
Recollections and Spiritual Conferences.
These are all upcoming and let us already at this point prepare and seek
God’s graces for these events. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Greetings of joy and peace in the Lord Jesus
Christ! I write this Circular Letter
today, the memorial of St. Pius X who is known for his inauguration of the
liturgical renewal and the restoration of frequent communion from childhood in
the early 20<sup>th</sup> century. Through
his intercession, may our seminary which is in the direction of the same liturgical
growth especially in the area of Eucharistic spirituality be led by the Holy
Spirit.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Your seminarian-sons are going home today,
August 24, and they are expected to be back to the seminary on Sunday, August
26. It is assumed that quality time is
spent at home with their family, while not neglecting their prayer life and
participation in the Eucharist in the Parish.
Please continue to monitor their health and inquire about their
studies. A word of encouragement for
them will be very meaningful especially when it comes from their family. Our graduating seminarians are going on
research after the break and will be back on August 30.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Last month’s celebration of the <i>Araw ng Wika</i> is worth noting in this
letter. Congratulations to Dra. Ely
Disimulacion for her great work in guiding the First Year Seminarians in
putting up the program. The whole
community cooperated and exerted a lot of effort to show love and devotion to
our beautiful Filipino language. This
annual event is a requirement in our institution by the Commission on Higher

<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">The cassock is sacred sign that is connected to
baptism and a symbol of the anticipation to the future priestly ministry of these
young men. Let us pray that as they put
on the cassock, they may also become new men with renewed ardor in following
the Lord in their seminary formation.
There will be a recollection on September 21-22 for these seminarians to
be facilitated by Sr. Maria Cecilia Payawal, PDDM. Their parents/guardians are also invited to
attend a recollection on September 22 (Saturday) from 1PM to 5PM which I will
facilitate at the Lay Formation Center.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 12pt;">Finally, the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary
(September 8) is coming close. The
seminary will celebrate a Marian Music Fest to honor our patroness. It will be inspiring to understand that St.
Pius X’s motto which was “Instaurare omnia in Christo” (To renew all things in
Christ) can only be realized with the Blessed Mother’s guidance and protection. </span></div>

thank you again for being with us in the Prayer Session this month. The Rationalists Team won the coveted cheering
contest at the Pandaragupan. With this
Circular is our Archbishop’s Letter encouraging our lay faithful to pray and
promote vocations to the priesthood.
Please continue to bring along your family, relatives and friends to
pray for the vocation of your seminarian-sons.
Our next date is August 19. We
shall begin with the usual Holy Hour at 9:30AM.
Fr. Jasper Hebron, our Spiritual Director, will be the presider and the
First Year Class is the host. The
Freshmen will also take the helm in the celebration of the “Linggo ng Wika” in
the afternoon. If you enjoyed the
Pandaragupan, I assure you that the Linggo ng Wika will be equally filled with
fun!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif";">We
have recently finished the repairs and improvements of the seminary
facilities. We did all these in response
to our dear Father Soc’s encouragement and support. For your information, we spent more than
three million pesos. Thanks to the Lay
Formation Center and the ALD-CS for the funds.
But more than the facilities, our team of formators has also worked very
hard to create a good formation program for the College Seminary. We are trying to give our seminarians the
best so that they can be at their best for the Lord and the Church. In Bonuan, there is no room for complacency,
mediocrity and laziness. Let us
therefore work together to bring out the best in our seminarians. Yes, the mid-term examinations are next month
(August 13-16).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif";">By
the way, this coming week our seminary community will be on Spiritual Retreat
(July 30 to August 2). The Marian
Missionaries of the Sacred Heart (MMHC) will facilitate the retreat in the
spirit of Mary. We priest-formators will
also be on retreat that same week.
Prayers are requested from you.
Prayers are also promised for you.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div>
RE: Promoting Priestly Vocations</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
My dear brother priests:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One of the special graces that we ask from the good Lord as we celebrate our golden jubilee as a Metropolitan See in 2013 is that He will bless us with a new springtime for vocations to the diocesan priesthood in the archdiocese. Hence, we have made available the 30day retreat program for all our priests and the opening of a new theology seminary, God willing by June 2013. Indeed all renewal eras in Church history were always preceded by the sanctification of priests.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Along the same spirit, we shall have monthly Prayer Sessions for Vocations at the Mary Help of Christians College Seminary in Bonuan Gueset according to this schedule: July 22, August 19, September 23, November 18, December 16, January 20, February 17 and March 23 the whole morning. We hope these prayer sessions will lead to an increased awareness of the need to pray for vocations.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Please encourage your youth leaders and the members of various parish organizations and ministries to attend. All the mandated organizations must make it a priority to pray for vocations and contribute to the burse for the poor seminarians on a regular basis.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The young men who wish to pursue the priesthood may also take the entrance examinations in the afternoon of these dates. This year, the archdiocese is blessed with forty four college seminarians and eighteen theology seminarians. The Lord of the harvest answers our prayers.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I entrust this matter to you for your personal attention and action. Thank you for your usual fraternal cooperation.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Sincerely yours,</div>
<div>

<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif";">The
“Prayer Session” in the seminary is a very important event in our program of
formation. It is the occasion when
families gather together to pray for the precious vocations of their
seminarian-sons and celebrate Holy Eucharist together. I invite you again to bring your family and
even your relatives and friends who would like to support your seminarian-son
in his vocation to join our Prayer Session this coming July 22, 2012 at 9:00

together to pray for vocations and celebrate the Eucharist together. The monthly gathering is usually scheduled on

We
hope that you can mark your calendar early so you can join us on these
days. You may invite your extended
family in order to show support for the vocation of your son, and really pray
for his vocation. We also encourage young
men who feel God’s call to join us in these Prayer Sessions so that they may
already see the place called the “seminary” – the seed-bed of priestly
vocation.</div>

<i>Oh Jesus, our Good Shepherd, bless all our parishes
with numerous priests, deacons, men and women in religious life, consecrated
laity and missionaries, according to the needs of the entire world, which You
love and wish to save. We especially
entrust our community to You; grant us the spirit of the first Christians, so
that we may be a cenacle of prayer, in loving acceptance of the Holy Spirit and
His gifts. Assist our pastors and all
who live a consecrated life. Guide the
steps of those who have responded generously to Your call and are preparing to
receive holy orders or to profess the evangelical counsels.</i></div>

<i>Look with love on so many well disposed young people
to follow You. Help them to understand
that in You alone can they attain to complete fulfillment. To this end we call on the powerful
intercession of Mary, Mother and Model of all vocations. We beseech you to sustain our faith with the
certainty that the Father will grant what You have commanded us to ask. Amen.</i></div>

Seminary. May Mary, Help of Christians guide
us always.</div>
