2011 Summary Report

January 5, 2012

To all our Dear Good Friends,

 

Our Happy New Year Greetings to all.

 

May the start of the year be merry and full of hope to all of us giving praise and glory to God for His year-long guidance, healing and our eternal providence.

 

2012 will be our 4^th year, Maia Outreach Programs (MOP) and 2011 was another good year for all of us with so many blessings in spite of our own family concerns.

 

We want to give thanks and praise to our God for continuously providing us, protecting us and healing us again in the year 2011 that we may be able to share in His ministry. In spite of the financial crisis to everyone last year we were able to continue to love others in many opportunities that God is giving to us.

 

In May, it was our 3^rd year of joining BBBS (Big Brothers Big Sisters) project with 2 of our MOP volunteers sending the 18 pieces school bags we sponsor. http://maiaoutreachprogram.i.ph/blogs/maiaoutreachprogram/2011/05/13/three-schools-and-a-storm/ They went hiking to Marinduque, providing school bags to the students in one of the rural area in our country. http://maiaoutreachprogram.i.ph/blogs/maiaoutreachprogram/?p=48

 

In July, we were able to contribute a 500 pieces of bricks into the “Donate-A-Brick” campaign for the construction of 4-storey bulding to house the street children of He Cares Foundation. http://www.hecaresfoundation.com/

 

On December 2011, our small community Brgy China’s Christmas Party was not just full of fun with lots of good food to share but we were able to generate through kind donations and fund-raising raffle. As a result, we were able to transfer donations amounting to 12,250php to the Cancer Warrior Foundation (http://www.c-warriors.org) to support a cancer-stricken child with his/her expensive medical treatment. We were also able to provide Php 25,000 via Caritas Manila (http://www.caritasmanila.org.ph) to the casualties of Sendong Typhoon last month in our country which have taken away so many lives and their properties (http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/113585/catholic-bishops-join-calls-for-more-aid-to-storm-victims). Let us all pray that this tragedy may not happen again in our country or any part of the world. These include also the “Noche Buena” yearly community service of Chua Family in Pasig City wherein our least brothers and sisters received a grocery gift bags. Distribution reached to about 97 families using a total amount of about 29,100php.

And the primary beneficiary of MOP is the Bethany Orphanage House in Guiguinto Bulacan accommodating abandoned children under the care of Sister Shirley together with all her volunteered assistants providing them a sack of rice regularly.

 

In addition, we also support other ministries of Kerygma Family as a member.

 

Thank you again for your unending kindness and generosity, our prayers for you all.

 

May we continue to love God by loving other and share our blessings to them.
