Family Life At Salesiana Publishers, Makati

MAKATI: 30th June 2006 -- 25 years ago on the 26th of June, Fr. Egidio Vigano officially established the Salesian community of St. Francis of Sales, and entrusted to it Salesiana Publishers, Inc., the official publishing house of the Philippine Province. 
    To celebrate the event, the now 60-person strong Salesiana spent one whole day revisiting the Vision-Mission statement of the publishing enterprise. They reiterated their strong desire to share in the vision 
of the Catholic Church and of the Salesian Congregation, and re-committed themselves to offer publications and services for the total growth of children and youth. In line with the 2006 Strenna, they enriched the vision-mission statement with a clear desire and promise to form healthy, happy, and holy families. 
    True to this commitment, more than 30 employees spent two afternoons at a seminar-workshop on Family Life. They were privileged to have as speaker and guide "Piling" Porsuelo, from Del Monte, Bukidnon, a barrio in the southern part of the country. The couple, Ely and Piling Porsuelo, are known all over the country for their dedication to family life, and in particular, to natural family planning. They were the mainstay of the Family Life Program that was conducted for many years in Del Monte. They were invited by John Paul II to be part of the Pontifical Council of the Family, and for several years traveled all the way to Rome to share their experiences and insights on the world level. They continue to assist and guide couples in the entire spectrum of family life. 
    The afternoons were spiced with laughter and excited reactions as "Piling" tackled highly sensitive issues in responsible parenthood, and narrated her often amusing yet real experiences. Several employees 
ended the workshops with their charts in hand, open to understand and monitor their own reproductive cycles.
