Happy New Year from Kiwanis Club of Oragons Albay! 🎉

As we close out 2025, we also conclude our fourth Advent reflection: Future Hope.

Over the past four weeks, we’ve reflected on the meaning of hope—not just as a feeling, but as a calling. As people of service, we understand “waiting in hope” as active faith: showing up, serving others, and believing that our efforts today help shape a better tomorrow.

Scripture reminds us that one day our waiting will be complete—“God himself will be with them” (Revelation 21:3). Our hope will no longer be glimpses or small signs, but fully realized. Jesus, the foundation of our hope, makes this future possible.

As Kiwanians, future hope guides our work. It reminds us that what we do for children, families, and communities today matters—because hope is built through service. Our past does not define us, and our present challenges do not limit us. Instead, we begin with hope for the future and move forward together.

May this New Year renew our commitment to serve with faith, purpose, and hope—today and always. 💙🌍

Bonifacio Day reminds us that heroism isn’t only found in grand victories—it’s also in the courage to stand up for what’s right, even in the face of great odds.

True patriotism begins with ordinary people choosing to make extraordinary acts of courage for their country and community.

Let us continue the fight our forefathers began, honoring the freedom they won through courage and sacrifice. May we refuse to be swallowed by the normalization of corruption, and may we stay vigilant so that betrayal never again comes from our own.
