From the OLA Parish Management

We received numerous complaints of illegal parking and blocking cars at the OLA parking lot, especially last Friday during the BLD Praise and Worship. 
Designated disabled parking have also been used illegally.

Please be considerate. If you parked illegally and blocking other cars, move your car right away, immediately after Praise and Worship or other activities.

Please note that if there are no more available parking spot, you can park on the side streets of the OLA Church. 

If these problems will occur again, we will have no other option but to call the City Parking Control or a Tow Truck if needed.  Help us to manage the smooth flow of traffic in our church parking lot. Thank you.

From the Evangelization Steward

During our recent visit to the Philippines, we were able to visit and consult our Mother Community and the BLD Manila District.

We were moved to assist them in their campaign to support the BLD Manila Provident Fund and Mission Fund for the New Bilibid Prisons and Correctional Institution for Women.  This Mission is doing the Works of Mercy, like providing material and spiritual need to the least of our brothers, that we all support. They organized a Raffle to raise fund for this purpose.

We brought home with us some Raffle Tickets that will be drawn on March 17, 2010. Prizes to be won are worthwhile claiming for:  Household Showcase worth P 300,000 ( Three Hundred Thousand Pesos ).
Motorcyle, Sari Sari Store Showcase and other Prizes.

The price per ticket is only $1.00, which is less than the price for a cup of coffee. Of course you can buy more than one booklet.

Please buy your Raffle Tickets from the designated Service Ministry members or your Ministry coordinators. 

Thank you and may our blessings multiply.
