The parish held its 7th Parish Renewal Experience weekend last 14-16 January. The PREX, as it is popularly called, is a formation program that hopes to bring renewal to the parish by bringing about a stronger commitment and promoting an active participation among the parishioners in their own parish. Rev. Fr. Frank Ungria, a native son of San Fabian, but now ministering in the Archdiocese of Manila, introduced the PREX program in the parish last March 2004. Since that time, he has been helping out in facillitating in the PREX weekend seminars held in the parish.
For the priest-speakers, the weekend experience can be very taxing but the fruits reaped from this weekend formation program are immeasurable in terms of renewed faith, rediscovered and reconciled relationships, conversions and deeper love for God and His Church. Truly, God's grace can never be measured nor limited by time nor place and people. God's outpouring of His mercy to us is truly immeasurable as it is unfathomable.
The parish hopes to continue this formation program for the adult members of the parish. Next March 2005, for the PREX Class 8, it will be our one year anniversary. I pray that we may continue holding this seminar for the coming years, bringing inspiring conversions and renewal among our parishioners!
