Saturday in Lantaka Study Center



Last Saturday, 28 July, the boys (8 of them!) went to Lantaka Study Center for confession with Fr. Belarmino, the Study Center's Chaplain.


They also attended a talk on "Friendship" by Sammy. Lantaka has a year-round calendar of activities for boys in grade school and high school.

We hope that we can also have as many activities with the Ipil Boys' Club in the future! Suggestions (and DONATIONS) are greatly appreciated!

Creator of "Guyito" talks on Cartooning

Jess Abrera, multi-awarded artist and cartoonist, more famous with his sketches of the Inquirer mascot "Guyito", spent a an hour with eager and curious kids from the Ipil Boys' Club last Saturday. The event was held at the BITE Resto and Grill along Gil Fernando Avenue in Marikina.
The Ipil Boys' Club is honored to have Jess around with the kids last Saturday. Thanks a lot, Jess and we wish you more success in the years to come!
Kids are beginning to warm up as Jess starts sketching ...
... still, some of the kids are discussing what to do next ... they were probably not listening :-)
The kids have started to sketch their masterpieces as Jess looks on ...
Save this group picture for a later date ... someone might just turn out to be an artist in a few year's time!
