Ms. Emma Cristobal, Human Resource Management and Development Department (HRMDD) Director, recited the Passage Reading.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nBr. Bernard S. Oca FSC, in his reflection, mentioned that our brothers and sisters who were affected by Typhoon Yolanda are experiencing darkness this season of Advent. We, as Lasallians, can be their source of light. Jesus, through deep faith, is the light that can overcome their darkness.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Jesus is truly the light in De La Salle Zobel; and our Lasallian Tradition says that Jesus lives in our hearts forever; if we let Jesus live in our hearts forever, then we should be the light for others,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Br. Bernie stated. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I pray that all of us will truly have Jesus in our hearts this season, that we will have all our efforts to be light to others and for others especially to those in darkness. If we do this, I am sure you will experience the joy, the peace, the love, and the light that God has promised each and every one of us this season. So pray with me and be one with me in witnessing the light.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nFor the Prayer Petition, the Student Representative Coordinating Council (SRCC) prepared a short video followed by the prayer intentions offered by multi-sectoral representatives from the alumni, parents, students, administrators, teachers, and staff. While prayers are being offered, other representatives from the aforementioned ceremonially lit the candles and positioned them around the manger.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nRafael Vasquez Jr. (DLSZ 2014), BRafeNHS Student Government President, led the closing prayer. Before the program ended, Br.
