"All creation is the Lord's, and we are responsible for the ways in which we use and abuse it. Water, air, soil, minerals, energy resources, plants, animal life, and space are to be valued and conserved because they are God's creation and not solely because they are useful to human beings. God has granted us stewardship of creation. We should meet these stewardship duties through acts of loving care and respect..."

September 17 marks the celebration of the International Coastal Clean Up day in the National Capital Region. We are inviting all the Lay Organizations of the Philippines Annual Conference to attend the Coastal Clean Up Drive organized by the PAC UMYAF and UMYF, in partnership with the Philippines. This will be held on September 17, 2022 (Saturday) from 5:30 AM to 9:00 AM, at the Las Piñas–Parañaque Wet Land Park.
As we still observe the minimum health protocols, the organizers limit the number of participants up to 75 individuals (15 years old and above). We encourage all who are willing to be part of this event to register to this link: https://forms.gle/rvS9kBvGhPgQHHDt6
As we commemorate the Season of Creation, may this program serve as our commitment in listening to the voice of God's creation and in responding to the call for its protection.
Join the coastal clean-up and listen to the cries of the earth, seas and people.
