MINGLANILLA, Cebu—To show gratitude for all the years of unwavering service, the Sisters of Mary School-Boystown held a program for Fr. Nelson on the long night of Friday, August 1, 2025, at the school’s gymnasium.

To start the program properly, Fr. Nelson and some parishioners were escorted in a tricycle (trisikad) as the students waved paper hearts as a sound of joy played.

Moving on, the students have prepared presentations to make the night memorable for them.

The presentations started from the Handbell Ringers, followed by Rondalla, then the Tinikling Dancers of combined girlstown and boystown students, with musical accompaniment by the Rondalla, the Aloysian Cebu Boys Choir (ACBC), the Pasigin Dancers, Fr. Al’s Band (FAS Band), and concluded by the Finale “I Love Cebu”.

Shortly after, The Helping Brothers’ Impromptu Dance followed as well as the giving of a bouquet of flowers.

To conclude the program, the Boystown community danced to the song “May the Good Lord Bless and Keep You” by Jim Reeves.

“Thank you, thank you for your friendship,” Fr Nelson said to express his gratitude “beyond words” to the whole Boystown community for the whole six years of friendship.

MINGLANILLA, CEBU—To welcome and thank the German benefactors for visiting, the Sisters of Mary schools, Boystown and Girlstown, prepared a welcome presentation held at the Boystown school’s gymnasium on July 7, 2025.

The visitors were Smilla Hecker, Bader Lilli, Wolfram Drexhage, and Hansjörg Faas.

As soon as they arrived, they were escorted from Building One to the school’s gymnasium. There, the Boystown community waited for them.

The students danced Modern Sinulog as they welcomed the visitors to the gymnasium.

It was hosted by John Benedict Prado, a student from the 31st batch, and Angel Castillon, a recent graduate from the 30th batch.

The program was composed of a series of presentations starting from the Handbell Ensemble, followed by the Aloysians Dance Troupe (ADT), SMS Boystown Rondalla, Tinikling Dancers (with musical accompaniment by the Rondalla), SMS Girlstown String Ensemble, the Grade 9 Jumpers, the Sinulog dance (featuring all Girlstown cultural dancers), Labamba Dancers, and the Grand Finale, “I Love Cebu.”

After the Finale of the performers, the whole Boystown community danced to the song “(I Want to Say) Thank You” by Orange Kids Music. Their visitors were filled with awe and captivation as they witnessed the dance from the heart of students.

“I consider it, presenting—almost the best way, but lahi ra siya sa pagduol personally, but I think it’s the best as a whole (community).” Elaiza Peñaranda, the leader of the SMS Girlstown String Ensemble, shared.

[I consider it, presenting—almost the best way, but it’s different from walking up to them, but I think it’s the best as a whole community.]

In addition, she shared that they feel nervous all the time, especially when presenting to the foreigners, and as she knows that they were one of the unique clubs, especially in Talisay, and she described the event as successful.

MINGLANILLA, Cebu– To be thankful for the good that has been done, students exhibit creativity and performance to the Sadamsa volunteers on their 10th visit at the Sisters of Mary School, Boystown-Minglanilla Campus on the night of May 31, 2025.

The Sadamsa volunteers organized a three-day activity focused on arts and physical activity, during which lots of students learnt and experienced the beautiful world of arts and physical education.

With that, the Fr. Aloysius Schwartz Band (FAS Band) serenaded the Korean visitors as they played their prepared songs with lead singer James Niño Restor.

The drum and lyre accompanied the volunteers as they moved from one place to another since the performers were stationed.

As they witnessed each performance from SMS Rondalla, Aloysian Dance troupe, G10 Dancers, down to the choir, visitors were mesmerized by the talents and exhibition of the students shown to them.

“I am so happy, I appreciate everyone, thank you so much,” said one of the Korean volunteers.
