Teen Saint Pedro in Iligan City

The Musical: Teen Saint Pedro

Since The Musical - Teen Saint Pedro was sponsored by the Couples for Christ, everyone in the community was encouraged to watch it. I wasn't actually sure if I was going to. So I didn't bother responding to text reminders about the play. I just simply forwarded it anyway. My household members didn't reply to me as well until siz Shiloh did. She said, she was interested to watch it. I thought "Great! We could watch it together as it may serve as our fellowship at the same time". So came July 27, 2013, even though I was sleepy, still out I went barging through the rain, off to Mindanao State University - Iligan Institute of Technology Gymnasium (MSU-IIT Gym) together with all the others. I was glad to see that the rain didn't stop the people from really showing up for the event. 

The curtain opened and the show started around 7:30 in the evening. Teen Pedro was portrayed by Makisig Morales while Bubi Camus played the role of Padre Diego Luis de San Vitores, a Jesuit Priest. Singing together with them is the 29AD Musicionaries of Couples for Christ.

After the show, I was glad to see siz Doruthee along with other St. Michael's Chapter members. I saw a couple of familiar faces from different chapters as well. Then of course, most of the people rushed to take pictures of the casts as their souvenir for the night. 

It was not only a very entertaining and talent-filled event but more so, it was a moving sight. As you see, not everyone can have that conviction to really live for God. It may be easy to say but it's a very very tough choice. Then again, it is a commitment which at his young age despite the many hindrances, he faithfully joyfully chose. He made his stand. Indeed, it is true that "No martyr ever dies in vain!".
