With grace and purpose, the SMAG community gathered to celebrate the First Friday Mass on July 3, 2026, presided over by Reverend Father Jonathan Raven Sison.
In his homily, Fr. Sison reflected on the words, โ๐ฝ๐ก๐๐จ๐จ๐๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ค๐จ๐ ๐ฌ๐๐ค ๐๐๐ซ๐ ๐ฃ๐ค๐ฉ ๐จ๐๐๐ฃ ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐ฎ๐๐ฉ ๐๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐๐ก๐๐๐ซ๐๐.โ He encouraged the SMAG community to entrust their fears to the Holy Spirit and leave them behind as they welcome the month of July with faith and confidence.
The school also held the induction of its Student Council, Club, and Class Officers. The ceremony formally welcomed the student leaders as they pledged to carry out their responsibilities with dedication and integrity. The Holy Mass also served as a reminder that leadership is not defined by a title alone but by leading through example. Amid moments of doubt, everyone was encouraged to continue striving, trusting that Jesus believes in each one of them.

He also reminded that being afraid is a natural tendency because we are uncertain of what is to happen, and that courage is something we ask to God through the Holy Spirit. For when one is scared, and he praysโhe is given strength to conquer the things heโs afraid of.
May the Spiritโs gifts dwell in each heart, and His fruits flourish abundantly among us!
