Kuya Wayne,
Some lives are measured not by the years they have lived, but by the lives they have touched, the hearts they have encouraged, and the service they have offered so faithfully.
You were never simply a servant in the Church. But, you became a light within it. At Sto. Domingo Proper United Methodist Church, you gave your time, your strength, and your heart, serving not for recognition, but because you believed that every small act of faithfulness could become a blessing to someone else.
To the UMYFP, you were more than a leader. You were a kuya who walked with us, listened to us, encouraged us, and reminded us that our youth can be a vessel of God’s love. Through every gathering, every ministry, every responsibility, and every moment of fellowship, you helped make the Church feel like home.
And your service did not end within the walls of our local church. You carried that same spirit of dedication into the District and even to the Northeast Philippines Annual Conference (NEPAC). Wherever you were called to serve, you answered with a willing heart. You gave your gifts not for yourself, but for the greater mission of Christ and His Church.
Your legacy is not found only in the programs you helped build or the positions you held. It lives in the people who became stronger because you believed in them, in the young people who learned to serve because you showed them how, and in the Church that became a little brighter because you chose to give your all.
Kuya Wayne, thank you for every prayer, every sacrifice, every laugh, every word of encouragement, and every quiet act of service. Thank you for showing us that true leadership is not about standing above others, but walking alongside them.
May the life you dedicated to serving God continue to inspire generations of young people to answer the same call:
to serve with humility,
to lead with love,
to walk in faith,
and to give without counting the cost.
Thank you for your life, Kuya Wayne.
Your service became a testimony.
Your presence became a blessing.
And indeed, You did well, as a good and faithful servant.
Till we meet again, Kuya Wayne.
– The Sto. Domingo Proper UMYFP
