Ready for the full day ahead!Saturday saw the conduct of this IKV’s various creative, sport and special competitions. With Sonny Boy now a YFC member and Joshua too young practically for the various competitions, I registered him yesterday to participate in one of the workshops offered for junior KFC members this morning.
With CFC Kids for Christ (KFC) International Coordinator Kirby Llaban
Under the shade of LOVE: With mime artists and a whole bunch of SFCs from
MM North B – 3 (Lou, Ainna, Jimi, Jayjay, Ai, Mhel, Cel, Tams, etc.)
Joshua works on his task during one of the workshops for kids
The workshops this year were categorized into three classifications: LEARN, LOVE & LEAD.
In LEARN, facilitators used Art, Music, People and fascinating Facts about the world for kids to know more about the Master Creator - God.
In LOVE, children discovered the various ways God expresses His love for us and the numerous ways we could love Him back.
In LEAD, KFC members are inspired to lead by example, to guide others to God, and be leaders of the future.
Most of the workshops offered ran for around one hour and a half per session, with one session scheduled for senior kids [ 9-12 yrs old/ up to 13 for SAGIP kids from Gawad Kalinga (GK sites) ] and another for junior kids [ 8 yrs. and below].
Joshua attended one of the LEARN workshops entitled “Learn about God through Music. The workshop venue was a classroom near the swimming pool area.
Uhh….Joshua is still working on his task as the workshop speaker prepares to teach a song

Another McChicken meal under the warm sun
We fall in line for some cool freebies - Selecta Ice cream! The afternoon gave us a lot of time to roam around the venue site, getting cool freebies and trying out all sorts of food products!

Sonny Boy attends the R.O.C.K. training for YFCs
Sonny Boy also got the opportunity to attend a R.O.K. workshop session that afternoon for YFC members. R.O.C.K. stands for Reach Out Christ to Kids, a preparation for youth members to be effective KFC Kuyas/Ates (older brothers/sisters) very similar in terms of content to the much older KFC Heart for the Kids training.
SFC full-time worker Norman Tarala shows the certificate of appreciation he received for his outstanding contribution as the R.O.C.K. workshop speaker

Del Monte’s marketing gimmick gets kids stuck to the wall!
Look Ma, no hands!Curious and excited like most of the kids, Joshua tries being “velcroed” to the wall.
Joshua tries a second time…
…and gets hung to the wall again!
Joshua watches as kites of all shapes and sizes fly high over the cloudy skies 
Kids just wanna have fun…. (throughout the long night!)
Joshua finally got his major wish this IKV - swim to his heart’s delight!
Kids will be kids - a friendly game of “Agawan Base” (capturing the enemy’s base)
Other KFCs have grown up to be young Youth for Christ (YFCs) members (Time flies!)
Everybody enjoys the rest of the night!
