July 27 8:30 a.m.: At the Novitiate for the mass co-sponsored by our batch. Nagkagulo before the mass sina (from left) Evangeline Yumang, Juliet Ras, Judith Balajadia and Glyn Dumanig with the surprise homecoming of Evelyn Abueva-Olarte (white dress). For many of our Kabatch, it was their first time to meet again after our graduation 35 years ago so understandably, nabulabog ang chapel. :)
