Dear Lord,

We pray for our Christian brothers and sisters in

Syria and Iraq, not only caught in the middle of the

cross fire but driven away as well because of their

faith and belief. Keep them safe Lord and that the

neighboring countries to where they have fled grant

them shelter and a new home.

Amen

LOVE ME TENDER

Love me tender, love me sweet

Never let me go

You have made my life complete

And I love you so.

Love me tender, love me sweet

All my dreams fulfilled

For my darling, I love you and I always will.

Love me tender, love me long

Take me to your heart

For it’s there that I belong

And we’ll never part.

Repeat Refrain:

Love me tender, love me dear

Tell me you are mine

I’ll be yours through all the years

Till the end of time

Pres. Ramy Garcia IV

Fellow Pasig Rotarians:

First of all, let me congratulate RJ Ermita’s NU Bulldogs for winning

this year’s UAAP Senior Basketball Tournament. They came from No.

4, wiped out Ateneo which was the No. 1 team, and then swept FEU for

their first championship in 60 years! Galing!

It has been three months since we started this journey. Now that we are

in the middle of our fourth month, we need to bring in possible

prospects. If we follow the suggestion of Rotary International, that

“Each One Bring One”, we can immediately double our membership.

Certainly, each of us know at least one friend that we can share Rotary

with. So invite them for lunch on Thursdays, so they can Light Up

Rotary!

Reminder to the TRF Chairman, November 29 will be the TRF Banquet

at the Hotel Sofitel. Please look into the possible moving up to Major

Donor status of the Multiple Paul Harris Fellows. I also know of several

Rotarians who can become Paul Harris Fellows by availing of the Raffy

Garcia Challenge which districts all over the Philippines are taking

advantage of. For $500, you can become a Paul Harris Fellow by the

assignment of 500 recognition points from PDG Raffy Garcia’s gifts to

the Rotary Foundation. Let's become a 100% Paul Harris Club!

Last week I talked about the Rotary Day Event on November 15, 2014.

The entire District will have a medical mission and job fair simultaneous

with other zones. RC Pasig and RC Mutya ng Pasig will lead the zone in

this project. We have the lead in the Medical Mission and Mutya ng

Pasig has the lead in the Job Fair.

Secretary John Peter and myself met with some of the Best Class

Presidents of Zone 6 to discuss assignments and to determine what we

exactly want to do during the medical mission; what kind of service will

we offer to the potential patients. It was agreed that Pasig West and

ROTARY CLUB OF PASIG

Continuation 1.

Pasig Sunrise will handle the Dental area. Our dentists like Dir. Nick

Guzman and Louie Orosa can help out in that area.

Dr. Aga has a source of cheap medicines and will come up with the list

of medicines that we will need. But for now we can initially budget

P15,000 for these medicines. We will be collecting P500 from each of

you to fund these medicines.

Since we will have volunteer doctors and nurses, we will have to prepare

food for them. We can do it in many ways, but I think it will be easier

and cheaper if we get a caterer that will serve two meriendas and a

lunch. We will ask another P500 from each member to be used for the

food expense.

It was also suggested by President Cathy that we buy sacks of rice from

NFA. The reason for this is that everyday people line up for hours to buy

rice from the NFA store. They are only allowed to buy three kilos at a

time. So, the people who have been treated can buy up to 3 kilos of NFA

rice at NFA cost.

The botas are being picked up from the printer and we can distribute

them soon. This will be our first major project this year. When we

distribute these botas, we can have some fun and games with the

children of GK and serve them Mcdonalds or Jolibbee.

PE Ner is the head of the Rotary Day committee. He should have formed

a committee by now and will start coordinating with PE Oddette of

Mutya ng Pasig.

We will be doing something to improve attendance starting with next

week’s meeting. Hopefully, everybody supports the moves so that we

can improve our attendance.

When we set the number games professor to speak to us twice in a

couple of months, he had different pictures to show and make the front

of the Tinig worthwhile for him to keep. But Dra. Sugar Armas spoke to

us several weeks apart and with no attempt to make her Tinig Portrayal

worthwhile, she had the same picture placed. I am sure it was not her

fault. Much more the father’s. The way she was dishing out her talk in

simplistic, easily understood style, you will never believe daughter ni

Ray.

There were only six attendees in the rushed fellowship last Thursday and

to make it seven, Ray was there. Despite weeks in advance for the grand

party of PP Peping, only a dozen attended from the club. PP Ed L. was

more at home as he brought ever devoted Ching and lovely daughter to

the great delight of Peping.

The one in charge of our memorial lunch that would be the second time

in two years is energetic PP Peter. He summoned PP Peping and yours

truly to make the preparation. If we hit 60%, that would be pretty good

as I have about 59 in my recollection system who are preparing for our

eventual joining them. I can recall: Johnny Alban, Doy Aldanese, Mike

Ampil, Jess Arnaldo, I.G. Atendido, Obet Barreto, Bing Basilio, Rene

Berroya, Cering Bustamante, Doding Carlos, Piling Castillo, Del Catli,

Bob Chandran, Charlie Cheng, Milton Chiung, Alon Chung, Lino

Vicente, Kenneth Dy, & Teddy Yabut. Denny Samson pala also. I might

have missed one or two but better instead of including buhay pa pala.

This will be on our 30th October meeting. The October celebrants,

including spouses, would host the extras as this Thursday PP Lito would

be the lone host. Even if madoble or matriple, please invite the spouses

of our dead Rotarians. The spouses naman of Rotarians who have gone

ahead would also be honored. Or, siblings as the case of our PS Joji who

recently lost a brother and a sister. As well as those who lost a son or

daughter as PP Peping and PPA Bella, and, the late Manny Estacio who

lost a daughter in Silliman campus.

There are a handful whose spouses and their Rotarians were together,

namely: Tito & Pacita de Guzman, Tony & Belen Guevara, Tacio &

Pacing delos Reyes, Julito & Dolly Francia, Carding & Fely Francisco,

Poch & his first two spouses Ramirez, Tony & Tess Limgenco, Joe &

Emma Jota, Remy & Conching Maranan, and, Danny & Spouse Floro.

There might be two more pairs who did not let us know one way or the

other that they went ahead.

To those who went ahead, perhaps a recollection of what they were best

known for would be great. Like PP Teddy Yabut when PP Rhett looked

worried about his condition, Teddy told him “what’s wrong with you, is

this the first time you will see a man dying?”.

A reminder of those who should order candles, rubber boots, and,

sponsoring a scholar. My apologies to Rtn. Henry, I honestly thought he

had one of our scholars with him, that was his spouse pala. When PP &

AG Hermie Orbe greeted her, I honestly thought Rizal High scholar.

Cradle snatcher? No, she sped up Henry’s recovery from that very bad

accident. He proved the tree was stronger than his car then.

The White House honors Rotary women for their humanitarian

service

Senior Rotary leaders gathered Tuesday at the White House to honor 10

women for their service projects, an event attended by members of U.S.

President Barack Obama's senior staff.

The Rotary members presented their projects, in the hopes of creating

new inroads for government partnerships and support.

"This is recognition of the great work that they do but also serves as a

great vehicle to inspire others to do similar kinds of things," said Rotary

General Secretary John Hewko. "One of the things we're doing a better

job of is sharing our story to the non-Rotary world."

The honorees were selected by Rotary senior leaders and endorsed by

the White House from clubs around the U.S. but their projects touch

lives across the globe.

Carolyn Jones, of Anchorage, Alaska, has served numerous times as a

Rotary volunteer in Russia, three of them as a preschool teacher for

developmentally delayed children in orphanages. During her

presentation she lamented hearing about a child sold for a bottle of

vodka, and vowed to use her honor as a stepping stone to save more

lives.

Jacqueline Parsons, a licensed professional counselor from San Antonio,

Texas, works on projects in her community and abroad, including the

FLAG (Fitness, Literacy, Attendance, and Grades) program, which

provides incentives to students to go to school, including bikes, sports

equipment, and other items.

Ginger Vann from Baker, Louisiana, coordinates tutoring for at-risk

students. With the help of her club, she renovated an uninhabitable

ROTARY CLUB OF PASIG

Continuation 1.

school building, and worked with tutors to reach 50 students each day.

She's also passionate about workforce development in Baker, where

well-paying craftsman jobs often go unfilled.

"We just don't have enough craft workers, people who are certified to do

the jobs," she said.

Michelle Candland, from San Diego, California, works with Monarch

High, an alternative school designed for homeless children.

"Right now there are over 1.3 million homeless kids on the street in

America. That's more than there are Rotarians around the world," said

Candland. "Twenty thousand of those kids are in San Diego alone."

"How can a child focus on school if their tummies are growling, their

shoes don't fit, and they don't even know where they are going to be

sleeping the next day?" she asked. "It takes an entire community to work

together to solve this problem."

The other honorees Tuesday were Bernadette Blackstock, Marion

Bunch, Carol Butler, Elizabeth Usovicz, Deepa Willingham, and Jane

Winning.

Winning, a registered nurse from Chowchilla, California, has provided

immunizations and health exams to more than 2,500 people in need

across Mexico, Honduras, Ecuador, and Guatemala. She's also worked

with Rotaplast International to provide free cleft lip and palate

reconstructive surgery to those who cannot afford it.

"A gentleman was 65 years old and he said, 'I can kiss my wife for the

first time,'" Winning said of the man post-surgery. "Those are incredible

experiences you don't get to share every day."

Butler, also from Anchorage, highlighted two projects. The first is a

statewide suicide prevention plan. According to Butler, Alaska has the

ROTARY CLUB OF PASIG

Tinig Newsletter October 16, 2014

PP Jun C. Zafra

Continuation 2.

highest rate of suicide per capita in the nation. The public awareness

plan educates Rotary members and Alaska residents to recognize the

warning signs of someone in crisis. She also talked about her club's

partnership with the Alaska Mission of Mercy, a collective of dentists,

staff, and other volunteers who provide free dental services throughout

the state.

"Dental care is a gateway to good health," says Butler. "There's an

increasing problem nationwide with people seeking dental care in

emergency rooms."

Usovicz, of Shawnee Mission, Kansas, has worked on service projects in

Missouri as well as abroad. In Malawi, she helped to reduce the rate of

malaria deaths by 65 percent to 70 percent in less than a year by

supplying the community with mosquito bed nets.

Willingham, of Solvang, California, is the founder and chair of Promise

of Assurance to Children Everywhere (PACE), an organization that

educates girls and their mothers, and works to prevent child trafficking

and early marriage in India.

Bunch, of Atlanta, Georgia, is the CEO of Rotarians for Family Health

and AIDS Prevention. She has received numerous awards on behalf of

her work for AIDS, and considers herself a mom who represents the face

of AIDS because she started her work after losing her son to the disease

in 1994.

"Because of that one single tragedy, my life's journey changed

dramatically from a very engaged business woman to a warrior on AIDS

and advocate of human rights," Bunch said.

As a result of her leadership, in April some 343,660 people received

health care, medical checkups, and counseling from 8,150 Rotary

ROTARY CLUB OF PASIG

volunteers during Rotary Family Health Days across Ghana, Nigeria,

Uganda, and South Africa.

Like Bunch, Blackstock, of Franklinville, New Jersey, has turned her

love of service into a career, launching the People for People

Foundation, which assists families struggling with financial hardships.

To date, the foundation has helped some 10,000 families afford food,

clothing, rent, utilities, medications, and other life necessities.

"Our combined mission today is not only to provide small grants but to

serve as advocates for our families and provide life-skill training and

mentoring and case management where needed."

The event in D.C. was also an opportunity for the honorees to share

ideas with each other.

"There are some resources still available to expand and improve projects

even amongst the women here," Jones said.

"Listening to the ladies, I was in awe," said Vann. "I was thinking what

if all 10 of us got together on one project. That would be amazing. We're

talking and it's exciting to be a part of that conversation."

GREATNESS OF ORDINARY LIFE

By: Rtn. Kel Pascual

Allow me to interrupt my travel notes and write some

insights about the article in the Inquirer of October

9th, "Time to Legalize Same Sex Union" wherein former UP law

dean Pacifico Agabin, also chair of the Philippine Judicial Academy's

Constitutional Law Dept is advocating that's it's about time that the

Philippines legalize same-sex unions. Though the subject matter is

just a personal opinion of the professor, still I feel the matter as very

crucial.

The article stated that the current Family Code of our Civil Code does

not allow such unions. Even setting aside this legal prohibition, as

well as Church precepts, same-sex union presents a critical

consideration as far as children are concerned. When legalized, there

is now an air of general acceptability that such union is now a

"family" which shall pave the way to a strong tendency for such

unions to adopt children- that is where the complication arises.

Let's take the different scenarios. A lesbian "family" adopts a female

child. The girl grows up in an environment where the majority of

other children have natural fathers and natural mothers. There would

be an "odd" feeling in her mind. Always in her thoughts would be

"who is my father, how come my classmates, my neighbors have dads

and I don't have one?" By the order of nature, there is always a

natural longing in children to look up to both a mother and a father as

they are growing up. Again by the order of nature this is also apparent

with the rest of all the animal species.

In a natural family, again by the order of nature, a child looks up to a

mother as the model of affectionate love and motherly care, as a

model of how a household is managed as far as food, clothing,

physical caring, orderliness of the home, even education, etc are

concerned. On the other hand, again by the order of nature, a child

looks up to a father for fortitude, courage, security, physical strength,

discipline, as a model of work or profession, leadership of the family,

as a source of financial security, etc. Going back to our scenario, the

adopted girl would be deprived of her natural longing for a father

image and model because her parents are both "moms."

There would be two tendencies for this girl when she comes of age, to

fall for an older man, relative to her age, because there was no father

image that she longed for in her home when she was growing up. The

other tendency would be to end up also with a lesbian relationship,

exactly as how she grew up in.

The next scenario, this same lesbian "married" couple adopts a boy.

The resulting tendencies could be worse. The boy is exposed to an

environment of females. As he is growing, all he sees are movements

and actions of females. The boy could end up as a male gay.

There seems to be a worse case if the union is between male gays and

adopt either a boy or a girl as their child. No matter how hard male

gays try to act as females, their nature or their order-of-nature would

still be masculine, so they couldn't really achieve the same level of

affectionate love, of motherly care, of patience in the physical care of

children, of orderliness in the home, patience in the kitchen and

laundry, etc.

There is still this disturbing consequential events from same-sex

union. From the paper "Getting the Facts: Same Sex Marriage"

published by the Family Research Council (Parents First, August

2012 issue), from that research, "for children with homosexual

parents, 3 of 6 sons reported sex with their father [we could assume

with either one of the two, as both are "fathers"], (2 of 3 sons said

they were homosexual as adults) and 2 of 11 daughters reported sex

with a step mother."
