The chapter head alone cannot manage the whole group, so the need for many and qualified leaders. We’ve proven that we have a robust pool of current leaders and leaders in the future long after I’m done as chapter head and the next. As the leader, I made it a point that the chapter will have more than enough leaders that will be ready to take the helm in the next several years.
As a group, I believe the important measure of accomplishment is that everything we envision will happen in the three years. I think we even exceeded ourselves.
What have been the most challenging aspects of leading BCBP Mandaue?
As I mentioned earlier, unity is most challenging, I can say that in all organizations and in all locations I’ve been in the past, and present this is something we cannot not see. At times I have to just remind myself that we cannot please everybody. There’s this saying I feel is very true – I do not know the key to success but the key to failure is to try to please everybody. Maybe I am too naïve to think
that it will be different in a charismatic community like the BCBP.
If it is any consolation, majority of our members work as a team even with their differences. Many can set aside personal differences and work for the success of tasks assigned.
As you pass the leadership to a new set of servants, what are your hopes and prayers for the Chapter and its members?
Being with the community for 25 years, I saw for myself the growth of BCBP and how the community changed, reformed and at times saved the lives of others. It is my prayer that the community will continue to do so with the same if not more vigor and passion. I hope to see more young people having that zeal to serve with humility ever present in their hearts and minds.
We have a treasure trove of talents and resources, I hope they can be tapped of their full potential and be generous in their time and resources to serve and contribute to the mission and vision of the BCBP.
