Dear Birgit
We will be celebrating our 32nd Foundation Anniversary by December in Puerto Princesa City, Palawan, where the famous underground river and the crocodile farm are located. We have a chapter there whose members are willing to host the national affair. Other chapters will be represented, too.
Our plans have been approved but there might be unpredictable hazards or more important events to alter our plans. It remains to be seen until October.
We are preparing our publication of the past events and accomplishments of our association. We always provide a page for correspondence. If you send us your message or any relevant information to our association, please do so for our publication, as soon as possible. You are our Honorary Member.
You are interested to know what is a pre-need office. It is a sales office for pension, education, health, life insurance and non-life insurance. Anna Lee has been appointed Agency Manager of D' Stella Maris General Agency. Our officers and members have joined this marketing endeavor for additional income and also for protection and security.
Good news, I was gifted a tour by Anna Lee to Puerto Princesa City as a belated Mother's Day gift. We enjoyed and visited the tourist spots from May 31 to June 2.
Bad news, upon arriving home from the trip, Minda Gomez informed me that our former director, Marieflor Teoxon, passed away on the day I left for Palawan. She died of cardiac arrest. You have not seen her because she was out of the country with her husband when you were around.
Regards and wishing you success in your August Conference.
Affectionately,
Alice |

Dear Birgit
How are you? We are all eager to hear from you. Our busiest days have been over and we are back to normal life. Although I have attend to our family problems more often. I always set aside a time for correspondence. Until now we are still hoping for your second visit to our country. Maybe a more orderly and extensive tour will be arranged by Melly Pagunsan and Cora Lorezo.
A plan of visiting Denmark is being considered, or a tour of the Scandinavian countries with a longer stopover in your city is under study. No decision has been carried yet. For the mean time, we are soliciting advertisements for our newsletter and also articles which are relevant to our objectives.
Paid ads support printing and distribution of the finished newsletter/ magazine. We handle the editorial job, the gathering of articles and photos and arrangement of articles. So far, so good.
Let us enjoy life as it comes and goes. Life is what we make it. May the Lenten season prepare us for a blessed and joyful Easter!

Letter
Dear Birgit,
We are all sad about the bad accident you suffered. We are grateful to our Lord for healing you. We pray for your complete recovery.
Our last "Sagip Puso" laboratory examinations last December 12, 2009 was a great help. Many availed the lowest price from about PhP 3,000 ($67) to PhP250 ($6) only. Our members whose spouses are already retired or jobless are in deed grateful to our foundation.
Our 31st Foundation Day held on December 30, 2009 was successful. It was well-attended. We acknowledged our successful youth with Certificate of Recognition.
It is good news for us that you celebrated Christmas/ New Year with the Filipino seafarers on board the ship. Yes, Christian bonding is necessary for a good working life at sea.
We are all praying and hoping for our well-being, for peace and understanding in our family, organization, and in our country. Our best regards to your loved ones and to all seafarers and their families in your association.
Love and hugs,
Alice | | Kilde/ forfatter: Alice, Dato: 22/1-2010 Kategori (i): The Phillipines
