- Esie S. Cervantes

FSGRI ( Far Southern Guild Resource Incorporat­ion) and Paco religious group worked out a heavy task during the Brigada Kick off 2018 at Paco Elem. School.

Twenty employees of FSGRI who were headed by Engr. Roldan Mangiwet brought with them hauling equipment and started their work as early as 6 a.m. just as soon as they came out from the Incorporat­ion van that brought them in the field.

The men hauled soil from the roadside and carried these inside the school campus to fill the newly constructe­d concrete plant boxes.

The women who were headed by Nimfa Calera and Lilia Ballula weeded the grasses and scraped dirty objects from the ground.

“Our office has no cash to give but working men to serve” stressed Ballula during the said activity.

The company also served snacks on the said date.

It was indeed an inspiring one to view educated people in working attires who get out from their comfort zones and render manual services to the school.

On the other, hand Paco Assembly of God Church headed by Ptr. Botdoy Sad-ayan, the Catholic Women League, Bethel Church, Jehovah’s Witnesses and the barangay council, completed the Brigada task on the second day making the school fully prepared to accommodat­e the learners of this school year 2018-2019.

The workers who were much in love with service did not give any sign of discomfort despite the blazing heat of the day because they believe that giving voluntary services is one way to worship our God the only source of strength.
