The meaningful Eucharistic Celebration was joined by the OAR Administrators, Lay Administrators, Faculty, Personnel and students in a jam-packed gymnasium. With the OAR community are the priests from the Sacred heart Seminary led by Rev. Fr. Gerry Alminasa. After the Holy Communion, the lay administrators and faculty made their oath of commitment to be dedicated teachers, committed employees and an example to the students.
Right before the blessing, Fr. Jay Parilla, OAR announced the suspension of classes except for the Basic Education. The happiness was felt inside the gymnasium as the students jubilantly expressed through pandemonium shouts and jubilant giggles.
The Eucharistic Celebration concluded with the jovial song with a dance performed by the Campus Ministry volunteers.
