Spelling RTV at Maria Christina falls
Making new friends, people from the 17 La Salle schools in the Philippines came together for "Convergence, Conversation, and Conversion"
As you know, I am an Atenean working for La Salle. Due to more than 5 years of Jesuit Formation (Currently, I am also taking up my MBA in AGSB), my boss decided to send me to-- Mindanao for a 5-day Retreat/ Formation sponsored by De La Salle Philippines (DLSP).
Learning something from the elders and natives: They shared the secret to their pearly white teeth, BRUSHING WITH BAYABAS stems.
I am a member of the Return to the Vaugirard Batch 16. It was a week when I began to see the world differently. We were forced out of our comfort zones to discover the big and wonderful world we are so often afraid of.

My realizations:
- Mindanao is a peaceful place.
- Muslims and Lumads are our brothers
- We need to take care of Mother Nature.
- Ateneans and La Sallians need to work together to make the world a better place.

After the 5-day retreat, I realized that I can be both an Atenean and La Sallian. :) View the video below to get a peek on what people from 17 La Salle Campuses around the country can do.
