It's JCI Week once again. This year's JCI Week is celebrated on April 15-22, 2012 with a theme "It's a great time to be a JCI". JCI Cotabato launched the JCI Week yesterday with thanksgiving mass at the Cotabato Cathedral and a symbolic lighting of lanterns at Cotabato Pilot Elementary School. It was a successful activity. We lit fifteen lanterns, comes with different colors and it was well attended by new and old members of JCI Cotabato.We decided to choose this activity to start the JCI Week celebration instead of the usual motorcade that JCI Cotabato has been doing for the past years.
But be careful though when lighting lanterns because it may sink back to the ground which may cause fire. One of our lanterns landed on one of our member's car.
This is my third time to witness this symbolic lighting of lanterns. First was in Tacloban then here in Cotabato City during the MBLT's Change of Command Ceremony.
They say that lighting these lanterns and letting it fly is a way of asking the sky to grant a wish. So my wish is to have a prosperous year and to have a successful JCI week celebration. =)
