BatangRizal joins Community Service

By: Sec Gani Visey

Part of the exposure program of BatangRizal Organization (BRO), thirty one (31) BatangRizal Teen’s (BRT) participated in the recently concluded HCC-CCC (Hillside Christian Church-Campus Crusade for Christ) Community Service in Barangay West Poblacion and Barangay Talaga, Rizal, Laguna.

The community service which was held in October 30, 2009 was initiated by the Campus Crusade for Christ in cooperation of the Hillside Christian Church. Prior to the holding of the community service, one hundred twenty (120) students and CCC staff from Adamson University, University of Sto Tomas, Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila, University of the Philippines, Polytechnic University of the Philippines and Rizal Technological University attended a four day leadership training/seminar at Rizal Re-Creation Center, Rizal, Laguna. As a concluding activity trainees were scheduled to apply what they have learned from the training. That is through a community service.

After cleaning the designated areas a fellowship meal (pack lunch) was provided by the CCC and was served at HCC. Right after taking their lunch a short program hosted by CCC Coordinator Bro. Bong Visey was held. There were sharing of testimonies and experiences from the CCC members and also from several BRO Teen members. Some BRO Teen members testified that it was really a great experience for them to work with CCC members. They enjoy it and had fun with them. Also, they added that they felt the inner joy while serving the community. And not only that, they also shared that they were able to know Jesus and have invited HIM to come into their heart.

The recently concluded community service was made possible through the cooperation and coordination of the following: Bro. Bong Visey, coordinator- Campus Crusade for Christ; Sec. Gani Visey, coordinator- Hillside Christian Church and T. Ellen Visey, president, BatangRizal Organization.
