CM- SCA Chapter 2- Carmel Academy

✨ “𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗛𝗶𝗺” ✨

Starting tomorrow and every Friday thereafter, we invite all brothers and sisters of Carmel Academy of Balilihan, Inc. to join us in the Via Crusi (Station of the Cross).

Let us take this sacred journey together, reflecting on Christ’s immense love, sacrifice, and mercy. In every station, we are reminded that even in suffering, there is hope; even in sacrifice, there is salvation.

May this Lenten devotion deepen our faith, strengthen our hearts, and draw us closer to Him who carried the cross for us all.

With hearts full of gratitude and reverence, the 𝗖𝗠-𝗦𝗖𝗔 𝗖𝗔𝗕𝗜 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘁 has successfully concluded the 𝗦𝗖𝗔𝗟𝗘 (𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗖𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀’ 𝗘𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿) 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗻 𝗙𝗲𝗯. 𝟏𝟑-𝟏𝟓, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔, the final and most transformative stage in the journey of our Militants toward becoming newly inducted, full-fledged SCAns. This sacred encounter served not only as a culmination of their formation but as a profound moment of discernment, renewal, and deeper commitment to the mission entrusted to them as young disciples of Christ.

SCALE was more than a formation: it was a spiritual pilgrimage. Through moments of prayer, reflection, fellowship, and sincere self-offering, our Ate’s and Kuya’s were invited to listen attentively to God’s call and to respond with courage and faith. Each session became a space where hearts were molded, convictions strengthened, and the true essence of servant leadership was embraced.

Out of the 102 qualified Militants who were called to take this significant step, 85 generously and wholeheartedly responded to God’s invitation to serve in the Ministry of the Young.

As they now stand as newly inducted full-fledged SCAns, we honor their courage and celebrate their fidelity. May their journey continue to be guided by the Holy Spirit, strengthened by prayer, and inspired by the example of Christ, the true Servant-Leader. Indeed, their “yes” is a testament that the mission lives on, and that the Ministry of the Young remains alive through willing hearts ready to serve.

To Christ the King, 👑
Love and Loyalty!💙🤍

Our heartfelt thanks go to our Diocesan Secretariats, 𝐊𝐮𝐲𝐚 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐮𝐥𝐨 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐡𝐨, 𝐊𝐮𝐲𝐚 𝐊𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐄𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐋𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐀𝐭𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 𝐀𝐧𝐧 𝐌𝐚𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐣𝐨𝐬 for sharing their time, wisdom, and service. Through your guidance, our Aspirants were inspired to stand firm in their commitment.

We also extend our appreciation to the CM– SCA CABI Unit SCAns, led by their Unit President, 𝐊𝐮𝐲𝐚 𝐌𝐢𝐞𝐥 𝐉𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐳𝐨, for their selfless service and support throughout the workshop.

May they continue to grow in faith, strengthen their commitment, and prepare their hearts for the greater responsibility that lies ahead.

This blessed moment became a space of quiet reflection, an invitation to rediscover God’s mercy, listen to His word, and prepare our hearts for the coming of Christ. Honoring Our Lady of Guadalupe allowed us to experience once again her maternal care, her message of hope, and her call to trust in God’s promises.

As we journey through Advent, may we be strengthened in faith, renewed in spirit, and guided by the loving presence of our Blessed Mother.
