In relation to the Maguindanao Massacre, indeed it was a very devastating and injustice act. We are as one to those who grieve. Personally hoping that victims attain the real justice. No one wants that to happen...but only the perpetrators.

During the mass at House of Joy: Father shared to everyone that Roger is a good altar boy. Roger told once that he wants to become a priest so let's pray for him.
He will also compete in Mati this coming November 29 for the soccer event. He is the captain ball of the team: Small but terrible indeed!!
@ Urawa Beach.
Welcome to the Family: House of Joy welcomes two new children; Jilmar (3 years old) and Jeremy (2 years old). They are the youngr brothers of Julianne who came here first last May 8.
Jerica, who used to be the youngest, is slowly accepting that she is now "ate" .
Maiko stayed in House of Joy for one month.
She remained silent yet had left a big impact to children.
Thank you very much for your time and for the
wonderful memories you left in House of Joy.
Having great time with everyone.
Each of the children showed their talents.
They were excited to step on the rubber table which they made as their stage.

On October 31, 2009, Sagop Palad Foundation, Inc., came to visit House of Joy. Children of both center had a great bonding as well as the staff.
On Sunday, ball games and other parlor games were being played by four teams with mixed members from House of Joy and Sagop Palad. Toys were given to Sagop Palad children as a token of appreciation.
Also, not just the Sagop Palad staff and children came to visit to House of Joy but also the alumni of the center: Lalang, Kit-kit and Jun-Jun which they called themselves the "Simon Band" everytime they perform in the center. Also, it was the chance of Marites and Marilyn to get bonded with their Kuya Kit-kit.
Field Trip in Davao
Every year, House of Joy treats children for a two-day field trip in Davao City. Usually, it falls end of October.
Children were having the chance to see the biggest crocodile in Davao, snakes, monkeys, dragon and many other animals that children could hardly see
It was not just all fun but also educational. After crocodile park, everyone went to Butterfly House. However, before that, the staff gave us a lecture on life cycle of the butterfly and its habitat. Children were able to learn the difference of butterfly and moth and how to take care of them. After which, they were able to learn as well about the bees. Don't you know that male bees will not sting you..only the female bees. after that, we got the chance to taste the honey. yummy!!!
Of course! how could we forget Jollibee? It's every child's favorite. Well, we ate our lunch at Jollibee.
after having lunch and two hours playing at Gaisano Mall, we went to Boys Town where Marton came from. Marton shed tears when we bid goodbye to them..
During Dinner at Penong's Grilled Restaurant.
Children enjoyed playing at People's Park.
On the second day, Mr. & Mrs. Karasuyama brought the children to watch airplane closer to their sight. When Ma'am Aida asked the children to write something about their experience in Davao, Mitchie wrote that the experience was totally wonderful and that she will try her best to finish her studies because someday, she wishes not just to watch the plane but also to ride on it.
And earnestly, in behalf of the the House of children, I would like to extend out heartfelt gratitude to Mr. & Mrs. Karasuyama for letting them experience to feel and see the beauty outside san Isidro and of course, to all the benefactors, because of you all, every child in House of Joy enjoys these privileges.
