PPCRV RECOMMENDATIONS AFTER ELECTIONS 2007

PPCRV RECOMMENDATIONS AFTER ELECTIONS 2007 FOR THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES The President has declared that the remaining three years of her term would be the “legacy phase” – we of the PPCRV are heartened by this declaration. We thus ask her with courageous political will to take the actions necessary to restore public trust in the Commission on Elections, which is the government’s lead electoral institution. Thus too our elections will regain credibility, so greatly damaged in recent elections. 1. In February 2008 , exactly six months from now, the present Chairman of the COMELEC and two of its Commissioners will be retiring. There will then be four (4) vacancies (there is already one vacancy at present) to be filled in the Commission. With due respect we strongly urge with regard to the selection of nominees for the vacancies: - that all “election stakeholders” be provided due opportunity to discuss and formulate the criteria for nominations for future members of...

I am sorry, that I was not been able to post frequently. There is much work and I think I have expand much of myself in making different blogs or web blogs on the internet. Aside from my work as a priest, there are some social responsibilities that I must also attend to. Before, I was pleading for some people in the hirarchy to give me some works on making the site for the diocese. I have find o is no need to ask them about it because there is much to be done even on my personal capacity. I thought, that it is my contribution to the presbyterium and to the local church or diocese. After much reflection, I have several sites of which I cannot find time to maintain in regular pace. This is one of the reson of not been able to post here regularly. So some of my post here are timestamped to make the way. Sometimes, I also give more time to some of the sites who gather much popularity that this personal site of mine, of which is also the barometer, I used for the need of the people. Howeve...

I have asked several parishioners to accompany me to Sta. Cruz, Manila for some important matters such as buying the right stuff and specification for the exhaust fan for the Church. The athmosphere of the Church is too hot. I asked Bro. Tas to accompany me because he knows the specification which is needed for the area of the church and its capacity to blow out all the unwanted hot air. I also asked Sis. Ligaya and Sis. Cena because they are familiar with the place and be able to recommend what is more appropriate. I bought also 5 outdoor flourescent lights for the Church and convent grounds. Blogs commenting Fr.

Blessing

Image
After my Mass at Karbaritan, somebody invited me for a house blessing. A Filipino U.S. citizen decided to build a house here in her native town so that when she comes here for a visit, he could stay sometime to her own house. I was been told that before, there is no stone houses around, it was only been lately when people have money by working abroad that they have stated to build big stone houses. it is also to be noted that when there is no longer people around that they stated building big and beautiful houses. They would like to set to the people's eye that they become successful but there is nobody really living in the house except the caretakers who comes from time to time to see the house. For others, they let their relatives use the house while they are not around. Blogs commenting Fr. Jessie's post

Sipit

Since John have some important matters to attend to, I asked willy to drive me for my scheduled barrio Masses. Willy is a resident of Bay for 47 years and yet he have not reached sipit. It was not much of a distance but because it is out of the way for regular communters. People go there because there is something they have to attend to. It is only a small community. Around 40 houses to 50. most of them are workers of IRRI. After Sipit, we celebrated Mass also in Brgy. Paciano Rizal. They have a basketball game when we arrive but they stopped when we started our celebration of the Holy Eucharist. At least, there are some concern individual in the community who acknowledge the importance of the Mass. Blogs commenting Fr. Jessie's post
