The Team on Educative Action (TEA) of the Hijas Province embarked into a two-day endeavor at Manresa Retreat House. The TEA is composed of F.I. sisters and lay from different Hijas apostolic centers, namely: Sr. Edhen Paranga, F.I., Sr. Joji Silorio, F.I., Sr. Patricia Anna Aragon, F.I., Dr. Delia Tumanda, Mrs. Glena Lucero, and Mrs. Rosalie A. Idulsa.

     From September 6 until September 7, the team was able to fruitfully come up with prayer guides that will facilitate a deeper reflection on three theological virtues. It is hoped that these guides will assist the apostolic centers to assimilate the directional them for all Hijas schools. The team was also able to come up with action plans for the next two years for academic and formation aspects as well as for the personnel of the different centers. The Spirit of joy was evident in the gift of each other's presence as the team was able to come up with a material help the schools move forward to the next phase of the commitments to the Global Compact on Education. Indeed, with faith, hope, and love, we find joy in giving our humble contribution to the mission.
