I brought one significant line when I went home that chairman Honorato Vacal Jr. said,”the welfare of all is just our intention.” In Visayan dialect, "ang among tumong o tuyo para lamang sa kaayuhan sa tanan."
With all the success we would like to congratulate the officers, management and staff for well taking care the Sts. Peter and Paul Multi-Purpose Cooperative! We, members of this coop are grateful to have you as the brain and heart of this coop as we journey together to meet the different challenges of our lives in reaching out the true meaning of life not forgetting the very reason why this coop was founded by Fr. Frederick Wakeham. We put our trust in you to continue the mission of Fr. Wakeham. As chairman Honorato Vacal said, “ we have to take care of this coop not just for ourselves, but for our children’s children in the next generation.
Lastly, I have to end this sharing with a passage from John 21:16, “Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”
He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.”
Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.” – John 21:16
