Jemsel Cruz, John Mars Venus, Efren Villena, Ruel Mutuc, and Vijay Velasco together with their coaches Engr. Billy Ray Oldan and Engr.

Tomas can do great in Math Contests. Everything that we’ve sacrificed were all paid off. It is not just who won, it’s every people behind this success. Ang panalong ito ay simula pa lamang ng mas malaking laban. Patuloy tayong magdasal para sa darating na Nationals. Go EE Youth!” Villena, Venus, and the rest said.

Arise and Shine Rejoices on 16 Years of Journey Once again God proved His faithfulness to Arise and Shine Campus Ministry as they glorified Him on their 16th year anniversary, September 28, 2017. Arise and Shine conducted their anniversary gathering at the Cultural Building Auditorium where more than 30 delegates attended including the Arise members, invited guests from Makiling National High School, alumni of Arise including Prof. Jeric Matutina of the Engineering Department and Prof. Resylyn Cabrera – Arise and Shine adviser. The theme of the gathering is about growing with a title of ‘Level Up’ wherein Joshua Pabon, the President of Arise and Shine, shared some of his experiences and thoughts in relevance with the theme. The focus of his talk was about how God leveled up David’s life and which is written in 1 Samuel 16: 1-13. He said that if people learn how to trust and have faith in God, their life could also be leveled up. Other activities were also conducted like the singing of praises and worships lead by the Frontliners of Arise. When asked about the preparations of the event, Andrea Danielle Labrador, the Vice President of the ministry said, “Ma-effort ang preparation, pero worth it ang pagod, medyo busy halos lahat pero para kay God, go lang!” she added. It has been another remarkable year for the organization and every member is looking forward to the years to come to celebrate, praise, and share the word of God. - Joan Estrella
