SEPTEMBER 2009
SHEC believes on the value of iron sharpening iron (Proverbs 27:17), because ‘doing good’ for the kingdom of God becomes ‘doing better’ in the process. Hence, SHEC always strives for excellence and better ways of doing things. It is with this spirit that the activities for September have been carried out:
The Human Resources Department conducted the Mid-Term Evaluation on September 3, 2009. Staff and volunteers were assessed for their function vis-à-vis the implementation of SHEC’s programs. The activity was facilitated by Fr. Orville Cajigal, RCJ and Fr. Dexter Prudenciano, RCJ at the Delegation House, 24 Calcutta St., Merville Park in Parañaque City.
The Environment Committee continues to promote proper solid waste management to residents of St. Hannibal Subdivision Phase II. A two-day workshop, held on September 4 and 5 at the St. Hannibal Training Center, was handled by SHaCC resource speakers to remind each participants of their role and responsibility as stewards and caretakers of nature.
SHEC participated in the 2nd Asia-Pacific Housing Forum held at the Dusit Thani Manila Hotel from September 7 to 9. The event gave a glimpse of different housing programs of government and private sectors for the benefit of the poor in Asia. Concepts, policies, strategies, disaster management, technologies, and best practices were taken up during the discussions. Delegates are from various sectors: non-government entities, local government units, businessmen, and the academe. This event was co-sponsored by Habitat for Humanity and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
The Port Area of Baseco Neighborhood Associations’ League (PABaNAL) hosted the community immersion of nine (9) Architecture students from the University of the Philippines on September 10. The activity started with an orientation on SHEC’s vision, mission, programs and activities, and a presentation on PABaNAL’s community organizing activities. The students will come up with a proposal for Baseco’s Development Plan.
On September 13, a special meeting was conducted by the Justice and Peace Committee for the approval of the proposed management chart and to deliberate on other pending concerns of the committee.
Meanwhile, weekly activities to increase faith and strengthen values were conducted throughout the month. The Education and Youth Committees held Values and Formation Skills Development activities every Sunday for SHEC’s young scholars. Meanwhile, SHaCC leaders facilitated Prayer Encounters each Friday of the month for the benefit of its members.
