INVOCATION

Lord, we acknowledge Thee as the

Creator and Sustainer of all life. In

our pursuit of the secular, help us

not to forsake the sacred. We look to

Thee for meaning and fulfillment to

life. Bless now this meeting of

Rotarians. We thank Thee for the

food. Amen.

NASUDNONG AWIT

Yutang tabunon, mutya nga

masilakon. Putling bahandi, amo

kang gimahal. Mithing gisimba,

yuta’s mga bayani; Sa manlulupig,

pagdapigan ka. Ang mga buntod mo

ug lapyahan, sa langit mong bughaw.

Nagahulad sa awit, lamdag sa

kaliwat tang gawas. Silaw sa adlaw

ug bituon sa nasudnong bandila.

Nagatima-an nga buhion ta ang

atong pagka-usa. Yutang maanyag,

duyan ka sa pagmahal, landong sa

langit ang dughan mo. Pakatam-ison

namo nga nagatukaw kung

mamatay man sa ngalan mo!

WHAT HAPPENED LAST WEEK…

BUSINESS MEETING By: Walter Cang

Last week will probably rank as one of the biggest gatherings of guests and

visiting Rotarians in RCC. Even our DRFC Lilu Alinio and DS Barbette

Lominoque were in our midst! So were members of the Rotary Club of Banilad

Metro, led by their President Stella Siboa. Also with us was Lee Hall, a guest of

PP Bernard Sia. Lee surprised us with an act of generosity which I will cover

later in this update.

Our emcee, PAG Robin Ong, didn’t fail us as he dished out his unique quips and

helped break the ice for many of our guests. Fellowship singing was led by

RCBM President Stella, our guest from Habitat for Humanity, DRFC Lilu and DS

Barbette. The all-female quartet were warmly cheered by our members. During

President’s time, Pres. Mike was happy to announce the approval of 2 global

grant applications from our club, ROSAS VTT and the second one, the GoL VTT.

Acknowledgements were given to the people who worked on it behind the

scenes.

After his segment, PP Bernard Sia took the mic to specially introduce Lee Hall.

Lee is from Texas and married to a Filipina. He had signed up for the upcoming

Ironman 70.3 in Mactan. A week prior to the race, he lost his watch while whale

watching in Oslob. Because all triathletes rely heavily on their watch to pace

themselves and perform to their utmost, it was a difficult blow. Posting an SOS

to his Fil-Am triathlete contacts in the states, a member of that group reached

out to PP Bernard. Not only did PP Bernard lent him an extra watch, he also

extended his hospitality and showed him our city and kept him company while

Lee was in town. In the course of their conversation, PP Bernard told him about

Gift of Life and what we are doing.

Lee was so touched to hear our story that without any prompting, he decided to

donate $2,500 to our Gift of Life account! Not only that, he also announced that

he was going back to his employer, Google, and sign up our club to become a

beneficiary of their Google Match program, a CSR program that allows their

employees to pick a beneficiary and donations to be matched by their employer.

An unfortunate loss of a watch that led to a simple but meaningful act of

kindness, that touched the life and heart of a non-Rotarian. We are blessed!

Thank you Lee and know henceforth that you have a family to count on in RCC.

Our guest speaker, Joey Rosel had graced one of our meetings last year. Habitat

for Humanity is a well-known NGO who had pioneered the opportunity for large

corporations and individuals to invest in “sweat equity”, the act of volunteering

their hours to help build homes for the less fortunate. Joey gave us an update

on what has happened since their last visit and presented ways by which Rotary

can help. He cited a program that was undertaken to build homes for a

community. Initially budgeted at a little over 100k per unit, inflation and

currency fluctuation had dealt a blow to their bottom line and they now had a

deficit to bridge. He encouraged us to consider adopting this project to help

them close the gap. Numerous ideas were presented on how best to tackle this

issue.

During the Q&A, a question raised was what about housing projects that were

finished but vacant or abandoned to this day? While they were not projects

undertaken by Habitat, it certainly begs the question how this could happen.

Among the reasons cited were non-consultation of plans by the LGU and

residents. Sadly, these decisions were made by the LGU to show results at the

shortest time, often forsaking due diligence and proper planning to ensure

viability.

Learn from the PAST. Embrace the PRESENT. Hope for the FUTURE. Lead the NEW.

A new start of the Rotary year wouldn’t be

complete without anticipating and inviting new

aspiring members to join the club. The Rotaract

Club of Cebu once again conducted a Basic

Orientation Seminar for aspiring members of the

club last August 11, 2019 at Community Scouts

Youth and Guidance Center (CSYGC). It's with

honor and privileged for the club as we are graced

with the presence of Past District Governor Ed

Chiongbian as our guest speaker, his wife Cely

Chiongbian and Rtn. Ken Ngo who serves as Youth

Service Director of our mother club. PDG Ed's

credibility and tenure as a Rotarian was surely

something we look forward to learn insightful

knowledge and wisdom. While having Rtn. Ken's

presence will make us connect more and align our goals and concerns with our mother

club. This year's BOS was perhaps the biggest delegation for the club, with a total of 18

people (2 Rotarians and a wife, 4 Rotaractors, a Rotaract Adviser in Ms. Anna, and 10

aspirants) in attendance.

Though the event was a bit formal, it was not stiff and dull as PDG Ed showed continuous

interaction with his audience and smiled often. Both old and new aspiring members learned

together about Rotary and Rotaract in general, along with its underlying Protocols. The

audience showed great attention and interest during the talk and also participated well

PDG Ed Chiongbian with his opening remarks

during the open forum. President Jemar of RAC Cebu delivered his general goals and

expectations

for his term

during the

President's

time part of

the program.

Perhaps one

of the most

insightful part

of the

program was

during the

sharing of

expectations of the aspirants for the club. It was good to hear their reasons behind and

expectations how they came about in joining the club and what they look forward to. It was

pleasing to hear that almost all of them had service to others as their main goal on joining

the club. Some of them have been also a servant in other organizations. As seniors and

officers of the club, it's our duty to make sure that their expectations are met to the best of

our ability and they would feel belongingness as a family to the club.

Such a feelin's comin' over me

There is wonder in 'most every

thing I see

Not a cloud in the sky, got the sun

in my eyes

And I won't be surprised if it's a

dream

Everything I want the world to be

Is now comin' true especially for

me

And the reason is clear, it's

because you are here

You're the nearest thing to heaven

that I've seen

I'm on the top of the world lookin'

down on creation

And the only explanation I can find

Is the love that I've found ever

since you've been around

Your love's put me at the top of the

world

Somethin' in the wind has learned

my name

And it's tellin' me that things are

not the same

In the leaves on the trees and the

touch of the breeze

There's a pleasin' sense of

happiness for me

There is only one wish on my mind

When this day is through I hope

that I will find

That tomorrow will be just the

same for you and me

All I need will be mine if you are

here

I'm on the top of the world lookin'

down on creation

And the only explanation I can find

Is the love that I've found ever

since you've been around

Your love's put me at the top of the

world

I'm on the top of the world lookin'

down on creation

And the only explanation I can find

Is the love that I've found ever

since you've been around

Your love's put me at the top of the

world

(A joke a day keeps the doctor away)

Tea Set

A girl was given a tea set for her

second birthday. It became one of her

favorite toys, and when her mother

went away for a few weeks to care for

her sick aunt, the toddler loved to

take her father a little cup of tea,

which was just water really, while he

was engrossed watching the news on

TV. He sipped each "cup of tea" he

was brought and lavished generous

praise on the taste, leaving the little

girl immensely proud.

Eventually the mother returned

home and the father couldn't wait to

show her how his little princess had

been looking after him. On cue, the

girl took him his "cup of tea" and he

sipped it before praising it to the

heavens.

The mother watched him drink it and

said: "Did it ever occur to you that the

only place she can reach to get water

is the toilet?"
