After that all the sections was called one by one. Now it's our college president's turn, He was introduced as "Ama ng CCC, si Rev. Msgr. Arnel F. Lagarejos.
Of course, he started with: "parents, teachers, my dear children, a pleasant good morning to all of you". And he proceeded: " Ako po'y nagagalak dahil nandito ang mga magulang sa patuloy na pag susuporta. Masasabi ko po ng partners ang CCC at ang bahay, napakahalaga ang pagkakatugma ng ng mga humuhubog sa ating kabataan ngayon." sabi niya. “Collaboration, para maiwasan ang mga tukso at impluwensiya na malapit sa atin, importante din malaman kung sino ang humuhubog sa ating anak. You are part of our Big Family" he added. "Welcome to CCC and a pleasant goodmorning to all of you"he ended.
The mass begun after the insirational message of Msgr. The mass was celebrated by Rev. Fr. Blaise Garcia.

The Gospel was according to St. Luke. The homily also started with a greeting. "Tayo ay isang pamilya ng Parokya" He said. "Ang misyon ng magulang pagkatapos silang ikasal ay dalhin ang kanilang mga anak sa Diyos. Lagi tayong manalangin, kahit na hindi natin nabigay ang mga magagandang bagay, pag naturuan natin silang manalangin, naturo na natin ang lahat ng kaya nilang gawin, pag tayo po ay nawala na. Isa lang ang requirement: ASK, through prayer. Pagtayo ay namatay, ang tatanong sayo ni San Pedro ay NAGDASAL KA BA? TUMULONG KA BA? kaya lagi tayong magdasal at tayo din ay pag bibigyan." he added. "Magsaya tayo at bawal ang nakasimangot" he ended.
The offering was done by the pupils together with the parents. The Eucharist was peaceful, everyone was quiet. After the giving of peace, the gr. 3 pupils performed a dance while singing. It was not very long but it was meaningful. The rest of the mass was splendid. It ended succeesfuly.
