New Beginnings

In the Philippines, June is a month of beginnings - the beginning of a new academic year in all educational institutions from the far-flung barrios to the metropolis.  In the political arena, it's also the start of a new fiscal year. 

In our web, we have experienced a similar beginning with the launching of two new sub-sections: Afterfeather (Opinion section) and Click 'n Peek (Features).

May I introduce you to: 

Mario V Albano (MVA for short) is our newest Opinion columnist writing Afterfeather.  He is my father, my first 'audience' when I begun writing. Currently based in the US, he is an active parishioner at the St Jerome Parish (Seminole, Florida).

Mary Ann Singson-Provida is our Contributor for Click 'n Peek which showcases photos that would inspire, encourage, and affirm our faith.  An active parishioner at Our Lady of Perpetual Succour Parish (Bulwell, Nottingham, UK), she is also a member of the Filipino Rosary Crusade.

Last, but definitely not the least, Grace B Madriñan has been appointed Features Section Editor.  Grace has been with us since 2008, initially contributing in God-speak and then later appointed as Pahina 3 Sub-section Editor. 

We'd like to thank MVA, Mary Ann, and Grace (all have attributes of the Blessed Virgin Mary isn't it?) for for their generosity to further spread the Good News of Jesus Christ.

This month is also a new beginning for me - it's now my 6th year as Editor-in-Chief. I'd like to thank my colleagues at the Editorial Board, all our contributors, and you dear readers for your unrelenting support.

Want to have a meaningful Year of Faith? Then join us at the web and use your talents for the glory of God!

Thanks and God bless.
