𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐑𝐘 | UnVeiled: Week of Prayer Reflections (Day 5)

"...And maybe I’ve spent too much time trying to carry what was never mine to carry—trying to earn forgiveness, trying to make myself worthy, before I let God work in me. But the gospel keeps reminding me that it is not my work. It is His. My part is to give Him my life and let Him do what only He could do."

𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐑𝐘 | UnVeiled: Week of Prayer Reflections (Day 4)

"...Maybe I am being asked to look too—not just at what Jesus did for me, but at the kind of love He showed while doing it. A love that remembered others even when He had nothing left to give. A love that still made room for someone else’s needs in the middle of His own agony."

𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐑𝐘 | UnVeiled: Week of Prayer Reflections (Day 3)

".... The greatest enemy in our lives can sometimes be ourselves and our tendency to rely on our own counsel. No matter how strong our will may be, our weakness reminds us that we cannot do it without God. In the days before Jesus sacrificed Himself for our sins, He asked His disciples to pray with Him. Jesus knew what He had to face, and even in agony, He surrendered Himself to God."

𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐑𝐘 | UnVeiled: Week of Prayer Reflections

"Maybe we’ve been looking for validation in the wrong place. We could be in our most broken state with nothing to give and He will still accept us. We have become so preoccupied with pleasing the judging eyes of society that we forget Him; but He has never forgotten us, He’s only waiting for us to turn to Him and trust Him again to carry us..."

𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐑𝐘 | UnVeiled: Week of Prayer Reflections

"Some wounds are beautiful because of the story they carry. Isaiah 53 speaks of a Messiah who was rejected by the very people He came to save. I used to believe that if I had lived in the time of Jesus, I would have been different. I would have recognized who He was. I would have stood beside Him when everyone else turned away. But would I really have?..."

𝐈𝐂𝐘𝐌𝐈 | The CSC Cup 2026, themed "Paghiusa," officially kicked off on Sunday, August 2, 2026, marking the start of a series of consecutive Sunday games that will run until October 18, 2026. The opening day began with a parade as students from different colleges, along with representatives from the AUP Academy and the Faculty, marched toward the Samuel P. Dizon Auditorium for the opening ceremony. The first slate of games then followed, officially launching this year's tournament.

Unlike previous editions of the CSC Cup, this year's opening program and games were held at the Samuel P. Dizon Auditorium as the university gymnasium remains under renovation. Despite the change in venue, the event still brought together members of the AUP community, providing an avenue to strengthen camaraderie across the university.
