“The Filipino is worth dying for.” — Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr.

Tuwing ika-21 ng Agosto, ginugunita natin si Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr.—hindi lamang ang kanyang kamatayan, kundi ang buhay na inialay niya para sa bayan.

Bago pa man siya naging simbolo ng paglaban sa diktadura, kilala na si Ninoy bilang isang mambabatas na matapang na naninindigan laban sa katiwalian at pang-aabuso sa kapangyarihan. Nang ideklara ang Batas Militar noong 1972, siya ay ikinulong ng rehimeng Marcos, ngunit hindi natinag ang kanyang paninindigan.

Sa kabila ng pagkakataong manatili sa Estados Unidos para sa kanyang kaligtasan, pinili niyang bumalik sa Pilipinas noong Agosto 21, 1983, batid ang panganib na kanyang haharapin. Siya ay pinaslang sa kanyang pagbabalik—isang pangyayaring nagbuklod sa maraming Pilipino at naging isa sa mga mitsa ng mga pagkilos na humantong sa Rebolusyong EDSA noong 1986.

Sa paggunita sa kanyang legasiya, nawa’y maalala natin ang halaga ng kalayaan, katotohanan, at tapang na manindigan para sa bayan.

Panalangin:

Panginoon, salamat po sa mga taong nag-alay ng kanilang buhay para sa bayan. Bigyan Mo kami ng tapang na manindigan para sa katotohanan, karunungang piliin ang tama, at pusong handang maglingkod sa kapwa. Nawa’y gamitin namin ang aming kalayaan upang itaguyod ang katarungan, pagkakaisa, at kapayapaan.

Amen.

Sa bawat pagdarasal ng Banal na Rosaryo, ibinubukas natin ang puso sa Mahal na Birheng Maria at sa Poong Maykapal—isang taos-pusong pag-aalay ng pasasalamat, pananampalataya, at pag-asa.

Sa ikaanim na taon ng ating sama-samang pananalangin, ipagpatuloy natin ang matibay na pagkapit sa ating Panginoon.

Nawa’y ang Rosaryo ng Pag-asa ay magningning sa ating buhay at magpatibay ng ating landas tungo sa walang hanggang pagmamahal ng Diyos

Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.” — 1 Samuel 3:10

Listen. Discern. Follow.

With grateful hearts, we proudly introduce the Vocation Nurturing Cycle Club of Saint Augustine School, Mendez, Cavite.

Our club seeks to nurture young agustinians hearts through prayer, formation, service, and discernment. Allowing each member to learn and grow closer to Christ and become more aware to His call.

Inspired by Samuel’s response to God, we believe that every vocation begins with a heart that is willing to listen. Before we know what Gods plan, we first learn to recognize His voice, discern His will, and trust Him enough to take the next step regardless of what challenges that we might face.

Our First Orientation, marks the beginning of our journey as a club. It is our first step on understanding vocation, actions with discernment and learning how we can respond to Christ’s call through our lives and service.

We begin with an open heart, a willing spirit, an ear ready to listen and a desire to know Christ more deeply.

Listen. Discern. Follow.
Big or small, every step matters when God is the center.

AugustiKnows #34: What’s in Your GO BAG?

Being prepared starts with something as simple as a go bag. During emergencies, having your essentials packed and ready can save valuable time and help you stay calm when every minute matters.

Your go bag should contain basic necessities such as drinking water, ready-to-eat food, a flashlight, extra batteries, hygiene supplies, a change of clothes, copies of important documents, and a first aid kit. Don’t forget your personal necessities—medications, chargers, or any other items that fit your family’s specific needs. Check your go bag regularly to make sure everything is complete and up to date.

Preparation isn’t about being afraid—it’s about being responsible, staying one step ahead, and keeping yourself and your loved ones safe.
