Work in Progress

Aside from the seminarians (who are the real work-in-progress), the seminary is undergoing repainting and renovation. These works-in-progress have progressed steadily. Thanks to the generous donors and persons who are making these possible.



Although there is still much to be done and there is the constant need for support, we, who have been tasked to take good care of this our beloved alma mater, are very optimistic about her future because of the encouragement and support that we have been getting. (Most of the times, just simple affirmations and "taps in the back" really help. And even unsolicited pieces of advice and negative criticisms are now welcome because we are now secured that our actions are done with best intentions for the seminary, the seminarians and ultimately for the church.)

The repainting of the part of the main building facing the grotto has been done. White and green are the colors chosen for they are really the colors of the Our Lady of Peñafrancia Seminary. (Just to make an initial acknowledgment of alumni donors, the non-ordained alumni contributed P35,000.00 and some ordained alumni contributed P50,000.00+. Individual donors have been acknowledged personally. A really HUGE thanks mga sano.)



The new pews for the seminary chapel are being varnished also.



This coming month, we will be launching a project (Project AKI*). AKI is an acronym for Alay Kay Ina. Its main objective is the completion of the chapel (ceiling and flooring) renovation. Details of the said project are being ironed out. Hopefully through this project, support from those who love the seminary will truly come.

God bless us all always.
