Our
prayers have been heard, ever since we were longing for our own personal
quarters. And last April 2003, Rev. Fr. Arnie Visitacion gave us our an
area for our new quarters.
 
Our quarters is situated right above the sacristy. It
previously served as the control room for the church sound system and half
of it served as the area for the catechists. The parish, after having a
fund raising for a new sound system, replacing the 20 year-old sound
system, transferred it to a new location. It is now situated right inside
the sacristy. Thus leaving half of the area above the sacristy empty. The
other half, the parish catechists' area, have long been unused since most
of their activities are done at the parish basement and that they also
have a room in their for their things. Because of this, the acolytes
especially the officers together with Tatay Joey Gara - president from the
parents (ALPHA) with the other parents have been requesting for this area
to the parish thru our Spiritual Director, Fr. Arnie Visitacion.
 
By God's graces, not only did we acquire the said area
for our own quarters, but the parish thru Rev. Fr. Arnie Visitacion has
given two newly built dressing cabinets. Thanks to Fr. Arnie Vsitacion.
Thanks to Bishop Julito Cortes. Thanks to the parish (Sto. Rosario
Parish). These two serve as a cabinet for our cassocks (sotana) and
surplices and also for storing other important and personal things. The
officers have their own copy of the keys of the two cabinets.
 
Because of the newly acquired quarters, most if not all
of the acolytes are seldom seen loitering around the sacristy and other
areas especially if they are not serving in the mass. Before, the Lectors
would always complain of the noises created by us. Our area before was
situated right beside the passage way and near the Lectors' windows. Now
that area is been cleared and our young boys are not allowed to standby
anymore in the said area. Whenever their will be an uncontrolled noises,
these can't be quite heard fro the outside since our area is at the
upstairs and that it is only exclusive for the acolytes to use.
