Happy 128th Anniversary, ka-DepEd! 🎉❤️

Salamat sa 128 taon ng suporta at pakikiisa sa pagtataguyod ng edukasyon para sa bawat Pilipino.

Mula sa mga lungsod hanggang sa pinakamalalayong komunidad, patuloy na nagsisilbing tulay ang DepEd tungo sa mas maliwanag na kinabukasan ng bawat learner sa pamamagitan ng dedikasyon at malasakit ng ating mga g**o at kawani.

Ngayong taon, higit pa sa isang ahensya, ipinagdiriwang natin ang DepEd bilang isang komunidad na nagkakaisa para sa iisang layuning hubugin ang susunod na henerasyon at itaguyod ang kinabukasan ng bansa.

ORATIO IMPERATA
Prayer for deliverance from Earthquake

Almighty Father, we raise our hearts to You in gratitudefor the wonders of creation, for Your providence that sustains us in our needs, and for Your wisdom that guides thecourse of the universe.

We acknowledge our sins against You and the rest of creation. We have not been good stewards of Your gifts. We turn to You, our loving Father, and beg forgiveness for our sins.Look with mercy upon Your people, O Lord, as we tremblein fear from the shaking of the earth. Protect us from harm and shield us from the dangers of collapsing homes, falling debris, and alldestruction caused by earthquakes.

We especially lift to You the poor, the vulnerable, and the defenseless, those who have no strong shelter, those whose homes are weak and fragile, and those who cannot recover easily from disaster. Be their refuge, O God, their comfort and their strength.

Calm our hearts when fear surrounds us. Steady the groundbeneath us and keep us safe. Heal the injured, console the grieving,and grant eternal rest to those who have perished.

We ask this through Your Son Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
