70 YEARS OF FAITH, HOPE, AND DEVOTION

Today, we join the Kapampangan community in commemorating the 70th Anniversary of the Canonical Coronation of the Virgen de los Remedios, Patroness of the Archdiocese of San Fernando and the Province of Pampanga.

For seven decades, our beloved Indu has remained a source of faith, hope, comfort, and strength for generations of Kapampangans. This year’s celebration, carrying the theme “Indu ning Capaldanan, Reyna ning Capayapan” (Mother of Remedies, Queen of Peace), calls us to live out our devotion through compassion, simplicity, solidarity, and stewardship of God’s creation.

As we give thanks for 70 years of grace and guidance, may the Virgen de los Remedios continue to intercede for our families, our communities, and our province. May her example inspire us to become instruments of peace, compassion, and hope, especially to those who need them most.

Virgen de los Remedios, Indu ning Capaldanan, ipanalangin mu kami.
Sto. Cristo del Perdón y Caridad, Ginung mapamacalulu, pacaluluan mu kami.

Mabuhay ang Mahal na Indu ning Capaldanan!

MCC Research Leader Among Five Philippine Early-Career Researchers Selected for International Advanced Institute in New Delhi

Mabalacat City College (MCC) takes pride in the international selection of its Vice President for Research and Extension Services, Glen S. Nolasco, as one of only five (5) early-career researchers from the Philippines chosen to participate in the 2026 Advanced Institute on Transboundary Transport of Cloud Systems and Acid Deposition.

The fully sponsored international research training program is organized by the IRDR ICoE–Taipei of Academia Sinica and will be held on September 7–11, 2026, at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), New Delhi, India. The program brings together researchers and professionals from low- and middle-income countries to deepen their understanding of transboundary atmospheric and environmental issues and strengthen regional research collaboration.

Representing Mabalacat City College and the Local Government of Mabalacat City, Mr. Nolasco will engage in intensive research training and knowledge exchange on innovative approaches to addressing complex environmental challenges, including environmental research, community resilience, disaster risk reduction, Indigenous communities, climate-related hazards, local development, and other “wicked problems” that require a transdisciplinary and community-centered approach.

More than a training opportunity, this participation represents an investment in research capacity-building and institutional development. The knowledge, networks, and approaches gained from the Advanced Institute are expected to contribute to strengthening MCC’s research and extension initiatives, particularly those addressing environmental sustainability, disaster resilience, and community development.

This international milestone is made possible through the strong support of MCC College President Dr. Sonny N. De Guzman, EdD, who continues to promote the professional development, international exposure, and capacity-building of MCC’s early-career researchers and academic leaders.

The initiative also reflects the continuing commitment of the City Government of Mabalacat, under the leadership of Mayor Geld P. Aquino and Vice Mayor Jun Castro, toward strengthening local capacity to anticipate and respond to emerging environmental and climate-related challenges.

Through initiatives such as this, Mabalacat City College and the City Government of Mabalacat continue to invest in people, research, and innovation—equipping local researchers with global knowledge and perspectives to help build a more resilient, sustainable, and future-ready Mabalacat City.

From Mabalacat to the global research community, MCC continues to advance knowledge, empower researchers, and serve communities. 🌏🔬
