GOD’S WORDS FOR TODAY (Mk. 8:11-13)

The Holy Gospel according to St. Mark The Pharisees came and began to argue with him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, to test him. And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and said, "Why does this generation seek a sign? Truly, I say to you, no sign shall be given to this generation." And he left them, and getting into the boat again he departed to the other side. REFLECTION: Are you good at reading signs? Signs tell us what is coming ahead. The people of Jesus' time expected that the coming of the Messiah would be accompanied by extraordinary signs and wonders. The religious leaders tested Jesus to see if he had a genuine sign from heaven to back his claim to be the Messiah. False messiahs in the past had made extraordinary claims to attract their followers, such as claiming that they could cleave the Jordan River in two or cause the walls of Jerusalem to fall. PRAYER: Lord Jesus, give me a faith that never wavers, a hope that never fades, and a love that never grows cold. Amen. Prayer of St. Gertrude Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.

FROM THE OVCA – OFFICE OF THE INTEGRATED SCHOOL PRINCIPAL:

1. With sincere gratitude to God for the safety and security of all the members of our IS community despite the recent Taal Volcano activity, we once again welcome everyone's physical presence in the campus. Likewise, we would like to express our great appreciation and commendation for our community's manifestation of the spirit of faith, zeal for service, and communion in mission amidst the challenges brought about not only by the volcanic eruption but also by the 2019 Novel Coronavirus, or 2019-nCoV, a new respiratory virus first identified in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China.

Thus, we would like to enjoin everyone to read, understand, and follow the health advisories officially issued by De La Salle Lipa. Let us all be socially responsible to care for our own health and for the health of others by refraining from going to school if we are feverish, have been suffering from upper respiratory tract infection, have travel history from Chinese territory in the past two weeks, or suffering from any communicable diseases or illnesses that weaken our immune system. With our Canvas Learning Management System (for Grades 4-12) and the Brothers' Little Angels webpage (Pre-school to Grade 3), we are assured of up-to-date learning experiences that suit our current contexts and needs. Always prioritize your safety and security over anything else. Rest assured of the utmost compassion, understanding, and support from your advisers, teachers, academic service personnel, administrators, and Christian Brothers. Also, let us try to have a better understanding of the facts about Taal Volcano eruption and 2019 -nCoV, observe the necessary precautions and hygiene, have the prudence to identify fake news and information and avoid sharing them, coordinate with proper authorities for your concerns, ask questions to clarify confusions, take safety and security instructions and evacuation drills seriously, avoid panic, and be vigilant.

MISSION VISION “Inspired by our faith in God, by our Catholic traditions and by the charism of St. John Baptist de La Salle educational innovator

par excellence, we together and by association are committed to give quality human and Christian education to all building a society founded on equity and justice and on sustainable and inclusive development. ”

As we have proven time and again, everything shall come to pass...even our worries and anxieties. In times like this, as we hope for the best and prepare for the worst, the best thing to do is to pray, hope, do not worry, and do the best that we can. With the spirit of faith, service, and communion in mission, Lasallians Observing Values and Excellence will always be blessed. Animo La Salle! Live Jesus in our hearts...forever!

FROM THE INSTITUTIONAL HEALTH SERVICES: 2019 Novel Coronavirus Coronaviruses (CoV) are a large family of viruses that cause illness ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV). Coronaviruses are zoonotic, meaning they are transmitted between animals and people. A novel coronavirus (nCoV) is a new strain that has not been previously identified in humans.

People of all ages can be infected by the new coronavirus (2019-nCoV). Older people, and people with pre-existing medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease) appear to be more vulnerable to becoming severely ill with the virus. Common signs of infection include:

• respiratory symptoms, • fever, cough, • shortness of breath and breathing difficulties. • In more severe cases, infection can cause pneumonia, severe acute respiratory syndrome, kidney failure and even

death.

WHO’s standard recommendations

• Frequently clean hands by using alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water; • When coughing and sneezing cover mouth and nose with flexed elbow or tissue – throw tissue away immediately

and wash hands;

• Avoid close contact with anyone who has fever and cough; • Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth; • If you have fever, cough and difficulty breathing seek medical care early and share previous travel history with

your health care provider;

• Avoid spitting in public; • The consumption of raw or undercooked animal products should be avoided. Raw meat, milk or animal organs

should be handled with care, to avoid cross-contamination with uncooked foods, as per good food safety practice.

Wash Your Hands Often to Stay Healthy You can help yourself and your loved ones stay healthy by washing your hands often, especially during these key times;

• Before and after eating food • Before, during, and after preparing food • Before and after treating a cut or wound • After blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing • After using the toilet • After touching garbage • After touching an animal, animal feed, or animal waste • After handling pet food or pet treats

Follow Five Steps to Wash Your Hands the Right Way Washing your hands is easy, and it’s one of the most effective ways to prevent the spread of germs. Clean hands can stop germs from spreading from one person to another and throughout an entire community—from your home and workplace to childcare facilities and hospitals.

Follow these five steps every time.

1. Wet your hands with clean, running water (warm or cold), turn off the tap, and apply soap. 2. Lather your hands by rubbing them together with the soap. Lather the backs of your hands, between your

fingers, and under your nails. 3. Scrub your hands for at least 20 seconds. Need a timer? Hum the “Happy Birthday” song from beginning to

end twice. 4. Rinse your hands well under clean, running water. 5. Dry your hands using a clean towel or air dry them.
