SF Recollection


         August 13, SF had their recollection.  All of them got closer to God, and closer to each other. Recollections are meant for getting closer to God and realizing things that you should not take for granted. Before the recollection, the students of SF had a confession. So that they would be relieved of all their sins before they have their whole day of being together with God.

        The students of SF started their recollection by reading verses from the bible, and sharing pandesal and water with each other. Each group had different amounts of water and pandesal, so all of them learned how to share with one another. After that, they had games. The games brought SF closer, and made them trust each other. After the games, they had their lunch break. Then, they had a family session. Everyone shared their family problems. Mostly everybody cried. The last part of the recollection was The Holy Eucharist. 

          After the recollection, they had their outreach. They were closer already because of their recollection. Each  one of them knew a little bit more about each other. Everyone was smiling and having a good time helping the less fortunate.
