Twice a year we have Family Home Weekend. This is a time designed for the dorms to have some family bonding time. This year we had Friday off of school so it was a nice 3 day weekend.
We kicked off the weekend on Friday with an Amazing Race- Keating Edition. We had the boys traveling around Metro Manila doing vaious challenges. The challenges includes delivering 5 gallons of water to a poor Filapino family, washing a trike (motorcycle with a passenger car), drving a bicycle and buying a drink for the driver, and buying a scarf for our helpers at various locations. Then we ended up for pizza at California Pizza Kitchen in Green Hills. There was fierce competition but the winning team was the white team. Their prize was that they could order anything off of the menu at CPK. Then we went back home and rested. Then we went to see the movie UP at 10pm at a really nice theater with lazy boy seats. It was a long day since we retunred back home at 12:15am but it was a fun day.
On Saturday we let the boys have free time. Most of them rested at home. One of our boys, Tim, had a Rugby tournament and played 4 games, not much rest for Tim.
On Sunday we went to church and then went out for lunch. We again had a restful afternoon. Then in the evening we had an all dorm fellowship. All 4 dorms met together for fellowship and some competition games. We were the champions of the games and won the gloden bolo award.
We had a great weekend of bonding! We have had a great start to the year. We are really enjoying the boys this year. Please continue to pray for the unity of the dorm.
GOD BLESS!
