FIRST AGENDA: ORIENTATION (RE-ORIENTATION)
Our workshop day started off with a re-orientation conducted by our Ministry Head, Sis. Belle Zamora. She discussed various topics ranging from the meaning of the name and logo of the group to the mission-vision. We were all also reminded of the house rules that we need to observe during regular and special activities. The talk was interactive and everybody was involved in the discussion.
