Our trip to the Congress and the Senate on Dec. 10, 2012 had much preparation! Jerry
and his wife Marylyn, spent hours wrapping and spray painting over 100 boxes that
were filled with a beautiful Nativity or Belen.
After their work was done, we placed our Public Affairs 2012 Calendar and Tabernacle CD in each box and wrapped a ribbon around them. We gave 25 to the Senate and sent the others to Congress. We also wrapped the calendars and CD's for other prominent people we visited.
Because this was such a big project, we had to call in the forwarders to help us! I'm sure
after they packed them through security, then all over the Congress, they must have
had tired backs!
Roan is one of our Public Affairs leaders here in Manila. She works at Congress
and helped us distribute our tokens.
Manny Paquiao (Pac Man) is one of our Congressman! We didn't get to meet him,
just got out picture taken with his!!!
We were honored to see the Legislative Room and sit in the special quest chairs.
After leaving Congress, we drove across town to the Senate. There we met with
Bro. Bellen who is on our Manila North Multi-Stake Public Affairs committee.
He serves as the Deputy Secretary for the Legislature.
Here we are posing on the Senate floor. We were sad that the RH Bill actually
passed both the Legislature and the Senate that very night.
