Batch 83's Reunion

 here's a post from batch 83 about their latest reunion. featuring the recently found fr. imbo... more pix and funny kwentos at their blog!!!

A Tale of Two Reunions-Part 1-Finding the Lost Shepherd

You have all heard of the parable of the lost sheep, right? How about the lost shepherd? Its not in the Bible, but in the lores of the class of '83. The class " pambawi" ( sa mga kabuangan natun) Fr. Imbo Barrozo surfaced and happily we had an excuse to have the first of the get-togethers last August 13 at the Eastwood City. Fr. Imbo is about to leave for a three year assignment with Sorsogon's "sister" diocese Kansas. Aside from Jayhawks, Kansas is known for their excellent beef - basi lamang yadto si Baka-King, Cula, matuparan man ni Fr. Imbo.




Captured and not about to let go! Gerrox shows Fr. Imbo how much he has been missed by the class of '83










Cacoy spent X-mas holidays with his parents in CA and visited family, friends and ex-classmates in Florida and Texas. We met for a few hours, had lunch; he came by the house, even visited my son at his school. It was nice to have been able to catch up with Cacoy and reminisce. We laughed a plenty remembering the times and experiences from OLPS. It was late in the day when we parted ways, after dinner matter of fact.

Biogas Project sa OLPS

A commendable project sa OLPS. they are setting-up a biogas digester to save on cooking gas expenses and in the future generate additional power for OLPS needs --electricity and heat.


does that mean the toilets will have hot water???



Site for the Biogas Digester project duly approved by the PTA last General Assembly (August 1, 2009).

Visit OLPS HS for more info and updates. magayon kay lalong nagiging active na an HS niyan. damo an projects! thanks sa mga padi sa OLPS for their efforts! kaya mga sano, if you are feeling charitable these days, OLPS could really use your help. kindly contact the Fr. Rector.


Mga Sano! Father Rector is asking for suggestions na name para sa OLPS Minor Varsity Team. post your suggestions sa comment and i'll paste it here. Go on to live in the OLPS lore as the sano who bestowed the OLPS varsity name!!!! dali-dali na kamo! Also basi may Sano o batch na gusto mag-sponsor san varsity team --uniform, food, transpo, etc please contact Fr. Rector.

The Seminary Varsity will be joining the Sorsogon Juniors Basketball League on August 20 - September 08, 2009. Our varsity basketball team is under the able hands of our own Sano, Coach Aldin V. Ayo (batch 94). We would like to solicit the support of all Sano out there.

If you are around Sorsogon please be present during the scheduled games. We would like also to ask for suggestions on the OLPS "moniker" and not only that.... if any generous Sano would like to sponsor the team uniform, it would be highly appreciated.

For many years the Seminary has dominated the field of Basketball in Sorsogon but we had been out of the limelight for some time now. Our return to the field does not promise to bring back the golden days of Seminary Basketball but at least have our presence felt again. And with a dear hope that someday we shall rise and shine again.

i don't know the details yet but Batch81 along with many Bulusenos are campaigning to halt the construction of the gas station inside the church property.

the church seems to be spanish era. wonder what the National Historical Commision will say about this. This probably got approved too by a church authority --but what was he thinking???

Mga sano! let us put a stop to this stupidity. sign the online petition here...
