Greetings of LOVE and PEACE to all !
We are pleased to announce that the Parish Renewal Experience (PREX) Movement, through the National Association of Parish PREX Secretariats (NAPPS), will be holding its 12th National PREX Convention on April 27, 28 & 29, 2012 at the YnaresCenter, Antipolo City, with the convention theme: "CALLED TO PROCLAIM THE GOSPEL OF LIFE".
The theme is taken from the 11th encyclical of Blessed Pope John Paul II, “Evangelium Vitae”, meant to be a precise and vigorous reaffirmation of the value of human life and its inviolability. Life is God’s sacred gift to man which manifests His great love for us, as revealed in the redemptive mission of Jesus Christ - "I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly" (Jn 10:10).
The convention is a biennial gathering of all PREX graduates coming from the different parishes all over the country. It serves as a venue for all of us PREX graduates to come together in fellowship, renew acquaintances, and reflect on the inspiring and insightful Talks of Speakers. Among the invited speakers are:
We are inviting you to come and actively participate in this momentous event. Your presence will be a blessing to other PREX Graduates.
