    DATE 2021 April 19 • ISSUE No. 357 www.lasalle-lead.org #buhayBRO: A Life Worth Giving The Philippines is celebrating 500 years since Christianity was introduced. Since then, many people have given their lives for the propagation of the faith in our land. It is, but timely, to also give credit for the spread of the faith through the educational ministry of the Brothers of the Christian Schools. Many Brothers have given their lives for this educational ministry, going to assignments, to new places, and letting the presence of God be felt through their actions. One such Brother is Br. Edgar S. Esparagoza FSC, who professed his perpetual vows as a De La Salle Brother on 04 April 2021 at 4:00 PM. Br. Edgar consistently described the life of the Brothers or #buhayBRO as a life worth living, but more than living it out, he has given it all to the ministries entrusted to him in his role as a teacher in De La Salle Lipa, the vocations promoter of the Brothers in the Philippines, and more recently, the formator at the House of Studies in De La Salle University. ISSUE No. 357 • 1 of 11 www.lasalle-lead.org The event was graced by the PARC General Councillor, Br. Ricardo Angel Laguda FSC, LEAD Visitor, Br. Armin Luistro FSC, and former LEAD Visitor, Br.

  • 3 July 2020 Once More, We, the Undersigned, Strongly Register Our
    3 July 2020 Once more, we, the undersigned, strongly register our opposition to the Anti-Terrorism Act of 2020 (House Bill No. 6875) recently approved by the House of Representatives on third and final reading and the earlier similar bill approved by the Senate (Senate Bill 1083) last February. We reiterate our call for the President to listen to the pleas of our people who are already burdened by the pandemic, and to veto this particular version of the bill, before it automatically lapses into law on July 9, 2020. Once more, we also express our commitment to work with government to craft a better version of the bill, and other legislation, that can uproot terrorism, while still addressing the people’s concerns about their basic rights. By so doing, we will not be divided in countering terrorism. As we have stated in our June statement, while we acknowledge the need to fight terrorism, we find the passage of the bill ill-timed. As our people continue to struggle in coping with the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, our attention, efforts, and resources should focus on fighting the virus and in helping our people. Many have died and continue to suffer from the pandemic. Our health systems and personnel are stretched to their limits. Many have lost jobs and are hungry. At this time, our priorities should be shoring up our health system, providing support to our health workers, ensuring food for our communities, stimulating the economy and providing jobs for our people. To be sure, it is our lawmakers’ sworn duty as public servants that these very real and terrifying threats to our health and economy receive more of their dedication and attention than hastily passing a bill that could, with its haphazard construction, wrongly impair sacred constitutional rights.

  • De La Salle Lipa College Student Handbook Preface
    College Student Handbook DE LA SALLE LIPA COLLEGE STUDENT HANDBOOK PREFACE The College started publishing a Student Handbook in school-year 1993 – 1994. Since then, numerous changes have been introduced in succeeding editions to make school policies and procedures more responsive to the needs of the school community and the challenges of the times. In case of necessary revisions, however, adjustments would be simply inserted in future editions. Revisions would come from suggestions solicited from the different offices and groups in the institution, including the student sector. Nevertheless, each member of the community is encouraged to provide suggestions towards the improvement of the handbook’s contents and its implementation. The policies and procedures contained in this handbook are not intended to limit individual freedom and aspiration. Instead, each provision seeks to guide a member of the school community towards the better performance of his or her role as a Doer, Learner, Sharer/Server and Leader. While the handbook is admittedly not perfect, it is expected that all sectors at De La Salle Lipa will do their part in the common objective of building a positive working and learning environment College Student Handbook SECTION I INTRODUCTION I. Vision and Mission To be a sign of faith as an excellent educational institution, sharing in the Lasallian mission of teaching minds, touching hearts and transforming lives. SIGN OF FAITH To be a sign of faith is for DLSL to be witness to the values of communion with God and the priority of the gospel in human life, and be committed to growth in the spirit of faith as described in the “Foundational Principles of Lasallian Formation”: The spirit of faith flows from a relationship of communion with the Triune God who wills to save all people by drawing them into a life-giving communion with Him and with one another.
