It is imperative to always begin a training program with a clear definition and presentation of its

agenda (eg the topics and major themes that will be dealt with and the methods that will be used)

This will make the participants aware of the role they will play and help them follow consciously the

flow of the formation program Through the participantrsquos expressed expectations the facilitator will

be able to gauge whether the seminar design needs some modifications Then both the participants

and facilitator enter into a ldquopsychological contractrdquo to ensure mutual cooperation and maximum

participation

1 The facilitator introduces the purpose of the worksheet

2 The facilitator then asks the participants to answer the given worksheet

3 During the Sharing the facilitator shall write on the board the list of the participantsrsquo expectations for

the formation program He or she synthesizes the responses

4 The facilitator then presents and explains the overall framework of the formation program He or shepoints out how the expressed expectations will be met by the training He or she also presents the

seminar schedule and house rules that will serve as the facilitatorrsquos expectations from the participants

And if necessary he or she prepares and solicits suggestions for modifications so as to come up

with a better seminar design

5 The set of expectations should be written on a poster paper and displayed prominently inside the

training hall so that the group can see whether their own expectations are being met

Kalakaran na para sa mga botanteng gaya ko

ang tumanggap ng pera sa mga kandidatong

naggtnanais ng aking boto

Normal na para sa isang botante gaya ko ang

pagtanggap ng mga ldquolibreng groceryrdquo tuwing

nalalapit ang eleksyon para iboto ang isang

kandidato

7

Bilang kapalit sa ipinangakong hanapbuhay o

trabaho ng kandidato sa aking mga kamaggtanak

o kaibigan siya as aking iboboto

8

Mapagbibigyan ang hihilingin kong pabor

(favor) ng kandidatong iboboto ko sa darating

na eleksyon

9

Marami naman ang ibang botante na kumukuha

ng pera sa kandidato kapalit ng boto nila kayawalang masama na gayahin ko rin sila

10

Ibibigay ko ang aking boto sa mga kandidatong

maraming ipinamimigay na mga libreng gamit

(freebies) gaya ng tshirt payong pamaypay

atbp tuwing kampanya

11Dahil kukunin akong kawani (staff) ng

kandidato kapag siya ay nanalo siya ang

iboboto ko

12Magkakaroon ako ng impluwensya sa ating

lipunan dahil sa paghalal ko ng mga

kandidatong nagnanais ng boto ko

Lord make me an instrument of your presence in the Polls Where there is coercion and violence let

me sow seeds of love Where there is bribery and vote buying let me sow seeds of integrity Where

there is discord let me sow seeds of unity Where there is electoral fraud let me sow seeds of honesty

Where there is duplicity and propaganda let me sow seeds of truth Where there is indifference let

me sow seeds of care and concern And where there is despair in the electoral process let me sow

seeds of hope O Divine Master grant that I may not so much think of my selfish motives when I vote

Instill in me a deep sense of communal solidarity in my critical choice of candidates that would rise

above the traditional politics of PAY-OFF PERSONALITY and PATRONAGE Enlighten me to electworthy men and women that embody the true spirit of public service in their moral consciousness For

it is in voting responsibly that we receive the fruits of true democracy And it is in dying as a seed to

our selfishness that we are born to eternal life Amen Mary Queen of Peace pray for us St Lorenzo

Ruiz pray for us St Pedro Calungsod pray for us That in all things God may be glorified

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

ldquoThe root cause is leadership ndash bad and corrupt

leadership to be exactrdquo

Dr Myles Munroe Chairman amp CEO

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

It is imperative to always begin a training program with a clear definition and presentation of its

agenda (eg the topics and major themes that will be dealt with and the methods that will be used)

This will make the participants aware of the role they will play and help them follow consciously the

flow of the formation program Through the participantrsquos expressed expectations the facilitator will

be able to gauge whether the seminar design needs some modifications Then both the participants

and facilitator enter into a ldquopsychological contractrdquo to ensure mutual cooperation and maximum

participation

1 The facilitator introduces the purpose of the worksheet

2 The facilitator then asks the participants to answer the given worksheet

3 During the Sharing the facilitator shall write on the board the list of the participantsrsquo expectations for

the formation program He or she synthesizes the responses

4 The facilitator then presents and explains the overall framework of the formation program He or shepoints out how the expressed expectations will be met by the training He or she also presents the

seminar schedule and house rules that will serve as the facilitatorrsquos expectations from the participants

And if necessary he or she prepares and solicits suggestions for modifications so as to come up

with a better seminar design

5 The set of expectations should be written on a poster paper and displayed prominently inside the

training hall so that the group can see whether their own expectations are being met

Lord make me an instrument of your presence in the Polls Where there is coercion and violence let

me sow seeds of love Where there is bribery and vote buying let me sow seeds of integrity Where

there is discord let me sow seeds of unity Where there is electoral fraud let me sow seeds of honesty

Where there is duplicity and propaganda let me sow seeds of truth Where there is indifference let

me sow seeds of care and concern And where there is despair in the electoral process let me sow

seeds of hope O Divine Master grant that I may not so much think of my selfish motives when I vote

Instill in me a deep sense of communal solidarity in my critical choice of candidates that would rise

above the traditional politics of PAY-OFF PERSONALITY and PATRONAGE Enlighten me to electworthy men and women that embody the true spirit of public service in their moral consciousness For

it is in voting responsibly that we receive the fruits of true democracy And it is in dying as a seed to

our selfishness that we are born to eternal life Amen Mary Queen of Peace pray for us St Lorenzo

Ruiz pray for us St Pedro Calungsod pray for us That in all things God may be glorified

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

ldquoThe root cause is leadership ndash bad and corrupt

leadership to be exactrdquo

Dr Myles Munroe Chairman amp CEO

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

It is imperative to always begin a training program with a clear definition and presentation of its

agenda (eg the topics and major themes that will be dealt with and the methods that will be used)

This will make the participants aware of the role they will play and help them follow consciously the

flow of the formation program Through the participantrsquos expressed expectations the facilitator will

be able to gauge whether the seminar design needs some modifications Then both the participants

and facilitator enter into a ldquopsychological contractrdquo to ensure mutual cooperation and maximum

participation

1 The facilitator introduces the purpose of the worksheet

2 The facilitator then asks the participants to answer the given worksheet

3 During the Sharing the facilitator shall write on the board the list of the participantsrsquo expectations for

the formation program He or she synthesizes the responses

4 The facilitator then presents and explains the overall framework of the formation program He or shepoints out how the expressed expectations will be met by the training He or she also presents the

seminar schedule and house rules that will serve as the facilitatorrsquos expectations from the participants

And if necessary he or she prepares and solicits suggestions for modifications so as to come up

with a better seminar design

5 The set of expectations should be written on a poster paper and displayed prominently inside the

training hall so that the group can see whether their own expectations are being met

Lord make me an instrument of your presence in the Polls Where there is coercion and violence let

me sow seeds of love Where there is bribery and vote buying let me sow seeds of integrity Where

there is discord let me sow seeds of unity Where there is electoral fraud let me sow seeds of honesty

Where there is duplicity and propaganda let me sow seeds of truth Where there is indifference let

me sow seeds of care and concern And where there is despair in the electoral process let me sow

seeds of hope O Divine Master grant that I may not so much think of my selfish motives when I vote

Instill in me a deep sense of communal solidarity in my critical choice of candidates that would rise

above the traditional politics of PAY-OFF PERSONALITY and PATRONAGE Enlighten me to electworthy men and women that embody the true spirit of public service in their moral consciousness For

it is in voting responsibly that we receive the fruits of true democracy And it is in dying as a seed to

our selfishness that we are born to eternal life Amen Mary Queen of Peace pray for us St Lorenzo

Ruiz pray for us St Pedro Calungsod pray for us That in all things God may be glorified

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

ldquoThe root cause is leadership ndash bad and corrupt

Dr Myles Munroe Chairman amp CEO

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

It is imperative to always begin a training program with a clear definition and presentation of its

agenda (eg the topics and major themes that will be dealt with and the methods that will be used)

This will make the participants aware of the role they will play and help them follow consciously the

flow of the formation program Through the participantrsquos expressed expectations the facilitator will

be able to gauge whether the seminar design needs some modifications Then both the participants

and facilitator enter into a ldquopsychological contractrdquo to ensure mutual cooperation and maximum

participation

1 The facilitator introduces the purpose of the worksheet

2 The facilitator then asks the participants to answer the given worksheet

3 During the Sharing the facilitator shall write on the board the list of the participantsrsquo expectations for

the formation program He or she synthesizes the responses

4 The facilitator then presents and explains the overall framework of the formation program He or shepoints out how the expressed expectations will be met by the training He or she also presents the

seminar schedule and house rules that will serve as the facilitatorrsquos expectations from the participants

And if necessary he or she prepares and solicits suggestions for modifications so as to come up

with a better seminar design

5 The set of expectations should be written on a poster paper and displayed prominently inside the

training hall so that the group can see whether their own expectations are being met

Lord make me an instrument of your presence in the Polls Where there is coercion and violence let

me sow seeds of love Where there is bribery and vote buying let me sow seeds of integrity Where

there is discord let me sow seeds of unity Where there is electoral fraud let me sow seeds of honesty

Where there is duplicity and propaganda let me sow seeds of truth Where there is indifference let

me sow seeds of care and concern And where there is despair in the electoral process let me sow

seeds of hope O Divine Master grant that I may not so much think of my selfish motives when I vote

Instill in me a deep sense of communal solidarity in my critical choice of candidates that would rise

above the traditional politics of PAY-OFF PERSONALITY and PATRONAGE Enlighten me to electworthy men and women that embody the true spirit of public service in their moral consciousness For

it is in voting responsibly that we receive the fruits of true democracy And it is in dying as a seed to

our selfishness that we are born to eternal life Amen Mary Queen of Peace pray for us St Lorenzo

Ruiz pray for us St Pedro Calungsod pray for us That in all things God may be glorified

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

ldquoThe root cause is leadership ndash bad and corrupt

Dr Myles Munroe Chairman amp CEO

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

67ONE GOOD VOTE BOTO KO DANGAL KO IPAGTATANGGOL KO

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

bull In 1994 the US House of Representatives enacted a law banning specic

classes of assualt weapons The vote was initially tied but one member

changed his vote to approve the ban

bull In 2000 the US Presidential election was decided by an extremely

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

vote but certainly every vote counted

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

It is imperative to always begin a training program with a clear definition and presentation of its

agenda (eg the topics and major themes that will be dealt with and the methods that will be used)

This will make the participants aware of the role they will play and help them follow consciously the

flow of the formation program Through the participantrsquos expressed expectations the facilitator will

be able to gauge whether the seminar design needs some modifications Then both the participants

and facilitator enter into a ldquopsychological contractrdquo to ensure mutual cooperation and maximum

participation

1 The facilitator introduces the purpose of the worksheet

2 The facilitator then asks the participants to answer the given worksheet

3 During the Sharing the facilitator shall write on the board the list of the participantsrsquo expectations for

the formation program He or she synthesizes the responses

4 The facilitator then presents and explains the overall framework of the formation program He or shepoints out how the expressed expectations will be met by the training He or she also presents the

seminar schedule and house rules that will serve as the facilitatorrsquos expectations from the participants

And if necessary he or she prepares and solicits suggestions for modifications so as to come up

with a better seminar design

5 The set of expectations should be written on a poster paper and displayed prominently inside the

training hall so that the group can see whether their own expectations are being met

Mapagbibigyan ang hihilingin kong pabor

Marami naman ang ibang botante na kumukuha

ng pera sa kandidato kapalit ng boto nila kayawalang masama na gayahin ko rin sila

10

Ibibigay ko ang aking boto sa mga kandidatong

maraming ipinamimigay na mga libreng gamit

(freebies) gaya ng tshirt payong pamaypay

atbp tuwing kampanya

kandidato kapag siya ay nanalo siya ang

iboboto ko

12Magkakaroon ako ng impluwensya sa ating

lipunan dahil sa paghalal ko ng mga

kandidatong nagnanais ng boto ko

Lord make me an instrument of your presence in the Polls Where there is coercion and violence let

me sow seeds of love Where there is bribery and vote buying let me sow seeds of integrity Where

there is discord let me sow seeds of unity Where there is electoral fraud let me sow seeds of honesty

Where there is duplicity and propaganda let me sow seeds of truth Where there is indifference let

me sow seeds of care and concern And where there is despair in the electoral process let me sow

seeds of hope O Divine Master grant that I may not so much think of my selfish motives when I vote

Instill in me a deep sense of communal solidarity in my critical choice of candidates that would rise

above the traditional politics of PAY-OFF PERSONALITY and PATRONAGE Enlighten me to electworthy men and women that embody the true spirit of public service in their moral consciousness For

it is in voting responsibly that we receive the fruits of true democracy And it is in dying as a seed to

our selfishness that we are born to eternal life Amen Mary Queen of Peace pray for us St Lorenzo

Ruiz pray for us St Pedro Calungsod pray for us That in all things God may be glorified

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

ldquoThe root cause is leadership ndash bad and corrupt

leadership to be exactrdquo

Dr Myles Munroe Chairman amp CEO

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

bull In 1994 the US House of Representatives enacted a law banning specic

classes of assualt weapons The vote was initially tied but one member

bull In 2000 the US Presidential election was decided by an extremely

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

It is imperative to always begin a training program with a clear definition and presentation of its

agenda (eg the topics and major themes that will be dealt with and the methods that will be used)

This will make the participants aware of the role they will play and help them follow consciously the

flow of the formation program Through the participantrsquos expressed expectations the facilitator will

be able to gauge whether the seminar design needs some modifications Then both the participants

and facilitator enter into a ldquopsychological contractrdquo to ensure mutual cooperation and maximum

participation

1 The facilitator introduces the purpose of the worksheet

2 The facilitator then asks the participants to answer the given worksheet

3 During the Sharing the facilitator shall write on the board the list of the participantsrsquo expectations for

the formation program He or she synthesizes the responses

4 The facilitator then presents and explains the overall framework of the formation program He or shepoints out how the expressed expectations will be met by the training He or she also presents the

seminar schedule and house rules that will serve as the facilitatorrsquos expectations from the participants

And if necessary he or she prepares and solicits suggestions for modifications so as to come up

with a better seminar design

5 The set of expectations should be written on a poster paper and displayed prominently inside the

training hall so that the group can see whether their own expectations are being met

Lord make me an instrument of your presence in the Polls Where there is coercion and violence let

me sow seeds of love Where there is bribery and vote buying let me sow seeds of integrity Where

there is discord let me sow seeds of unity Where there is electoral fraud let me sow seeds of honesty

Where there is duplicity and propaganda let me sow seeds of truth Where there is indifference let

me sow seeds of care and concern And where there is despair in the electoral process let me sow

seeds of hope O Divine Master grant that I may not so much think of my selfish motives when I vote

Instill in me a deep sense of communal solidarity in my critical choice of candidates that would rise

above the traditional politics of PAY-OFF PERSONALITY and PATRONAGE Enlighten me to electworthy men and women that embody the true spirit of public service in their moral consciousness For

it is in voting responsibly that we receive the fruits of true democracy And it is in dying as a seed to

our selfishness that we are born to eternal life Amen Mary Queen of Peace pray for us St Lorenzo

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

ldquoThe root cause is leadership ndash bad and corrupt

leadership to be exactrdquo

Dr Myles Munroe Chairman amp CEO

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

me sow seeds of love Where there is bribery and vote buying let me sow seeds of integrity Where

there is discord let me sow seeds of unity Where there is electoral fraud let me sow seeds of honesty

Where there is duplicity and propaganda let me sow seeds of truth Where there is indifference let

me sow seeds of care and concern And where there is despair in the electoral process let me sow

seeds of hope O Divine Master grant that I may not so much think of my selfish motives when I vote

Instill in me a deep sense of communal solidarity in my critical choice of candidates that would rise

above the traditional politics of PAY-OFF PERSONALITY and PATRONAGE Enlighten me to electworthy men and women that embody the true spirit of public service in their moral consciousness For

it is in voting responsibly that we receive the fruits of true democracy And it is in dying as a seed to

our selfishness that we are born to eternal life Amen Mary Queen of Peace pray for us St Lorenzo

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

bull In 1994 the US House of Representatives enacted a law banning specic

classes of assualt weapons The vote was initially tied but one member

changed his vote to approve the ban

bull In 2000 the US Presidential election was decided by an extremely

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

Lord make me an instrument of your presence in the Polls Where there is coercion and violence let

me sow seeds of love Where there is bribery and vote buying let me sow seeds of integrity Where

there is discord let me sow seeds of unity Where there is electoral fraud let me sow seeds of honesty

Where there is duplicity and propaganda let me sow seeds of truth Where there is indifference let

me sow seeds of care and concern And where there is despair in the electoral process let me sow

seeds of hope O Divine Master grant that I may not so much think of my selfish motives when I vote

Instill in me a deep sense of communal solidarity in my critical choice of candidates that would rise

above the traditional politics of PAY-OFF PERSONALITY and PATRONAGE Enlighten me to electworthy men and women that embody the true spirit of public service in their moral consciousness For

it is in voting responsibly that we receive the fruits of true democracy And it is in dying as a seed to

our selfishness that we are born to eternal life Amen Mary Queen of Peace pray for us St Lorenzo

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

ldquoThe root cause is leadership ndash bad and corrupt

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

Lord make me an instrument of your presence in the Polls Where there is coercion and violence let

me sow seeds of love Where there is bribery and vote buying let me sow seeds of integrity Where

there is discord let me sow seeds of unity Where there is electoral fraud let me sow seeds of honesty

Where there is duplicity and propaganda let me sow seeds of truth Where there is indifference let

me sow seeds of care and concern And where there is despair in the electoral process let me sow

seeds of hope O Divine Master grant that I may not so much think of my selfish motives when I vote

Instill in me a deep sense of communal solidarity in my critical choice of candidates that would rise

above the traditional politics of PAY-OFF PERSONALITY and PATRONAGE Enlighten me to electworthy men and women that embody the true spirit of public service in their moral consciousness For

it is in voting responsibly that we receive the fruits of true democracy And it is in dying as a seed to

our selfishness that we are born to eternal life Amen Mary Queen of Peace pray for us St Lorenzo

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

ldquoThe root cause is leadership ndash bad and corrupt

Dr Myles Munroe Chairman amp CEO

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

Lord make me an instrument of your presence in the Polls Where there is coercion and violence let

me sow seeds of love Where there is bribery and vote buying let me sow seeds of integrity Where

there is discord let me sow seeds of unity Where there is electoral fraud let me sow seeds of honesty

Where there is duplicity and propaganda let me sow seeds of truth Where there is indifference let

me sow seeds of care and concern And where there is despair in the electoral process let me sow

seeds of hope O Divine Master grant that I may not so much think of my selfish motives when I vote

Instill in me a deep sense of communal solidarity in my critical choice of candidates that would rise

above the traditional politics of PAY-OFF PERSONALITY and PATRONAGE Enlighten me to electworthy men and women that embody the true spirit of public service in their moral consciousness For

it is in voting responsibly that we receive the fruits of true democracy And it is in dying as a seed to

our selfishness that we are born to eternal life Amen Mary Queen of Peace pray for us St Lorenzo

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

ldquoThe root cause is leadership ndash bad and corrupt

leadership to be exactrdquo

Dr Myles Munroe Chairman amp CEO

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

Lord make me an instrument of your presence in the Polls Where there is coercion and violence let

me sow seeds of love Where there is bribery and vote buying let me sow seeds of integrity Where

there is discord let me sow seeds of unity Where there is electoral fraud let me sow seeds of honesty

Where there is duplicity and propaganda let me sow seeds of truth Where there is indifference let

me sow seeds of care and concern And where there is despair in the electoral process let me sow

seeds of hope O Divine Master grant that I may not so much think of my selfish motives when I vote

Instill in me a deep sense of communal solidarity in my critical choice of candidates that would rise

above the traditional politics of PAY-OFF PERSONALITY and PATRONAGE Enlighten me to electworthy men and women that embody the true spirit of public service in their moral consciousness For

it is in voting responsibly that we receive the fruits of true democracy And it is in dying as a seed to

our selfishness that we are born to eternal life Amen Mary Queen of Peace pray for us St Lorenzo

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

Dr Myles Munroe Chairman amp CEO

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

appeals to their moral responsibility PPCRV

started the campaign lsquoHuwag Magpabulag sa Perarsquo

against vote-buying

the Archdiocese of Manila by Cardinal Luis Antonio

ldquoHuwag Kang Magnakawrdquo reminds as of the evils

of thievery and corruption It is also a call for

reconciliation and change of ways

rin sapat na tayo ay mahusay lamang Hindi lahat

ng matino ay mahusay at lalo namang hindi

lahat ng mahusay ay matino Ang dapat ay

matino at mahusay upang karapat- dapat tayong

pagkatiwalaan ng pera ng bayanrdquo

When leadership falls into the hands of someone corrupt that leadership will corrupt our

society Resources are not enough for corrupt leaders

There becomes a wholesale failure of the people to vote responsibly with misconception of

what elections are all about what true democracy and freedom mean

WINNING at all costs

Election as INVESTMENT and

Public Service as BUSINESS

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

Lord make me an instrument of your presence in the Polls Where there is coercion and violence let

me sow seeds of love Where there is bribery and vote buying let me sow seeds of integrity Where

there is discord let me sow seeds of unity Where there is electoral fraud let me sow seeds of honesty

Where there is duplicity and propaganda let me sow seeds of truth Where there is indifference let

me sow seeds of care and concern And where there is despair in the electoral process let me sow

seeds of hope O Divine Master grant that I may not so much think of my selfish motives when I vote

Instill in me a deep sense of communal solidarity in my critical choice of candidates that would rise

above the traditional politics of PAY-OFF PERSONALITY and PATRONAGE Enlighten me to electworthy men and women that embody the true spirit of public service in their moral consciousness For

it is in voting responsibly that we receive the fruits of true democracy And it is in dying as a seed to

our selfishness that we are born to eternal life Amen Mary Queen of Peace pray for us St Lorenzo

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

ldquoThe root cause is leadership ndash bad and corrupt

leadership to be exactrdquo

Dr Myles Munroe Chairman amp CEO

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

ldquoThe root cause is leadership ndash bad and corrupt

leadership to be exactrdquo

Dr Myles Munroe Chairman amp CEO

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

OUR SITUATION REALITIES

TALKING POINTS

KEY POINTS DESCRIPTIONThere is rampant practice of vote-buying in all

forms --- cash and kind for individuals groups

and communities

Vote-Buying takes different forms and deals with

various opportunities What is common however

is that it usually feeds the felt need of people in an

instantly gratifying way (eg Groceries Cash) Insome cases it acts as a bond where a certain

benefit (eg scholarship job opportunity) is

dependent upon onersquos support for a candidate

ldquo Philippine politics-- the way it is practiced-- has

been most hurtful of us as a people It is possibly

the biggest bane in our life as a nation and the

most pernicious obstacle to our achieving of full

human developmentrdquo

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on PhilippinePolitics

The practice of Politics in our country has derailed

our growth as a nation This leaves us with a

notably low level of trust with the major

institutions and primary political leaders It is a

bane a hindrance whereas it could have served as

a catalyst for growth

hellip If we are what we are today ndash a country of poor

and powerless people ndash one reason is the way we

have allowed politics to be debased and

prostituted to the low level it is in now

CBCP 1997 Pastoral Exhortation on Philippine

Politics

The action or inaction of the Filipino people is part

and parcel in what we are today Apathy

indifference or the refusals to change habitual

ways of being are disadvantageous to our

progress

ldquoThe root cause is leadership ndash bad and corrupt

Dr Myles Munroe Chairman amp CEO

International Third World Leaders Association

(UN Member)

One leadership guru said that ldquoEverything rises

and falls with leadershiprdquo Precisely bad and

corrupt leadership leads to such a low level of life

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

Candidatesrsquo Perspective Winning at All CostsElections as investment and Public Service as

business

The perspective of Philippine politicians in theconduct of elections pushes them to win at all

cost utilizing guns goons and gold Like an

investment they lsquobuyrsquo the votes that they need

with the money they have (or do not have) and

would regain them in whatever manner upon

assuming position and access to resources Public

service becomes a business then a family-run for

some

Votersrsquo Perspective Lesser Evil MentalityGambling or Chance Mentality

The perspective of voters lead them to a sense ofdesperation and would then choose the presumed

lsquolesser evilrsquo instead of emerging good leaders or

taking a stand that no one is deserving of their

vote It becomes like a game of chance risking

their trust and hoping that whoever wins will serve

them even if it is a disservice to others

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

there are a number of initiatives and advocacies

which calls on the conscience of the people and

appeals to their moral responsibility PPCRV

started the campaign lsquoHuwag Magpabulag sa Perarsquo

against vote-buying

ldquoHuwag Kang Magnakawrdquo reminds as of the evils

of thievery and corruption It is also a call for

reconciliation and change of ways

ng matino ay mahusay at lalo namang hindi

lahat ng mahusay ay matino Ang dapat ay

matino at mahusay upang karapat- dapat tayong

When leadership falls into the hands of someone corrupt that leadership will corrupt our

society Resources are not enough for corrupt leaders

There becomes a wholesale failure of the people to vote responsibly with misconception of

what elections are all about what true democracy and freedom mean

WINNING at all costs

Election as INVESTMENT and

Public Service as BUSINESS

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

bull In 2000 the US Presidential election was decided by an extremely

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

bull In 1994 the US House of Representatives enacted a law banning specic

bull In 2000 the US Presidential election was decided by an extremely

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

bull In 1994 the US House of Representatives enacted a law banning specic

classes of assualt weapons The vote was initially tied but one member

changed his vote to approve the ban

bull In 2000 the US Presidential election was decided by an extremely

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

vote but certainly every vote counted

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

bull In 2000 the US Presidential election was decided by an extremely

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

bull In 1994 the US House of Representatives enacted a law banning specic

classes of assualt weapons The vote was initially tied but one member

changed his vote to approve the ban

bull In 2000 the US Presidential election was decided by an extremely

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

vote but certainly every vote counted

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

bull In 1994 the US House of Representatives enacted a law banning specic

bull In 2000 the US Presidential election was decided by an extremely

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

The Pastoral Cycle is a tool a method of analysis and questioning not only

of problems or concerns that are faced but also what causes them and what

obstacles need to be overcome

The Pastoral Cycle is a continuous process of engagement with and reflection

upon the World and the Word of God so that courses of action may be

discerned and taken to make things different

The Pastoral Cycle provides for the outcomes of this action to be celebratedand evaluated and if necessary subjected to further analysis and questioning

etc in a continuing cycle or spiral as further changes are found to be needed

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

67ONE GOOD VOTE BOTO KO DANGAL KO IPAGTATANGGOL KO

57

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

bull In 1994 the US House of Representatives enacted a law banning specic

classes of assualt weapons The vote was initially tied but one member

changed his vote to approve the ban

bull In 2000 the US Presidential election was decided by an extremely

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

vote but certainly every vote counted

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

bull In 1994 the US House of Representatives enacted a law banning specic

classes of assualt weapons The vote was initially tied but one member

changed his vote to approve the ban

bull In 2000 the US Presidential election was decided by an extremely

narrow margin George W Bush won the state of Florida by just 537

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

million voters went to the polls in Florida It might not have been by one

vote but certainly every vote counted

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

1 The main themes and concepts are provided in this manual Please do

not overfeed the audience with so much technical information Trust your

judgment and your audience in choosing which will best suit them

2 If possible use the following strategies for group process

a Introducing Participants several tools are now available however try to

formulate your own creative way of doing it This will set the atmosphere

for the discussions Try to make your audience feel at ease using this

segment

b Ice Breakers their use and importance cannot be limited to a particularpart of the session Use them to liven up the group to focus the grouprsquos

attention to give a break from too much sessions or intellectual

undertaking

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

participation the following truths must guide the participation of Catholics in political life

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

d) that it be imbued with a love of preference for the poor e) that empowering people shall be carried out as a process and as a goal of political activity

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

So you think your vote is not going to count if you stayed at home and watched

from the sidelines your vote is not going to be missed

Absolutely wrong

Here are some instances in history when one vote made

the difference between winning and losing In many cases the destiny of

nations has been changed because one individual ballot was cast - or not cast

(By the way such a single deciding vote is called a swing vote Thatrsquos to

impress your friends with a richer vocabulary next time the talks get around to

elections)

bull In 1645 one vote gave Oliver Cromwell control of England

bull In 1649 one vote gave literally cost King Charles I of England his head

The vote to be ahead him was 67 against and 68 for

bull In 1714 one vote placed King Goerge I on the throne of England and

restored the monarchy

ONE VOTE

HOW IMPORTANT IS

bull In 1776 one vote gave America the English language instead of German

(at least according to folklore)

bull In 1846 a one vote margin in the US Senate approved President Polkrsquos

request for a Declaration of War against Mexico

bull In 1850 California was admitted to the Union by a margin of one vote

bull The Alaska Purchase of 1867 was ratied by just one vote-paving the

way for the eventual annexation of Americarsquos largest state in 1958

bull In 1875 a one vote margin changed France from a monarchy to a

republic

bull In 1941 the Selective Service Act (the draft) was saved by a one vote

margin- just weeks before Pearl Harbor was attacked

votes making him the next President of the United States Close to 6

So REGISTER NOW AND VOTE ON ELECTION DAYIf it comes to the point where a swing vote is needed yours could be it

No social (political) transformation is genuine and lasting where people themselves do not actively

participate in the process In the context of our society today where the poor and marginalized have

little genuine participation we realize that the integral development of people will be possible only withtheir corresponding empowerment we understand ldquopeople powerrdquo to include greater involvement

in decision-making greater equality in both political and economic matters more democracy more

a) that the basic standard for participation be the pursuit of the common good

b) that participation be characterized by a defence and promotion of justice

c) that participation be inspired and guided by the spirit of service

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation

in the absence of incontrovertible evidence for these days onersquos reputation so painstakingly built bysincerity and honesty over the years can so easily be tarnished by the truly evil work of ldquospin-doctorsrdquo

in the payroll of one or the other political aspirant

End political dynasties Do not vote for family members running for the same positions as family

members before them to perpetrate the familyrsquos hold on public oce When it is clear that one

politician clings to public oce seeking election to some other position after he has run the length of

the permissible number of terms in one elective oce the Christian voter should prudently choose

others who may have equal if not superior abilities and competencies for the position There is no

monopoly on ability for government and truly no one in government is indispensable

Ask the right questions as basis of your selection among candidates Do not demand to know of a

congressman or a senator what his or her local projects have been Legislators are not supposed to

have local projects They are supposed to legislate to attend congressional sessions rise to debate

and actively take part in committee hearings Ask rather whether or not they have attended the

sessions of the Lower House or of the Senate diligently and regularly On the other hand do not make

lsquokapit sa taasrsquo a criterion for the choice of local elective ocials because a local ocial leads by his

own charisma and leadership skills We reject a government by patronage

A person who aspires for high oce but who because of inexperience will be totally dependent on

advisers is not the best possible candidate for national positions but we should be willing to repose

trust on those who we are convinced are capable of leading and of serving with probity high above

suspicion and with skill competence and wisdom that comes from abiding faith That a person is a

firm believer and that he or she practices her faith should be a crucial consideration for the Catholicvoter

Every vote a Christian casts is not only an instance of the exercise of those liberties and rights we have

as free citizens Because the Kingdom of God is Godrsquos gift inaugurated as Lumen Gentium teaches

in the world by the life ministry death and Resurrection of Jesus The Lord we are commissioned to

do what is within our ability to make Godrsquos Kingdom a living experience for all of his people And a

vote wisely and virtuously cast is a fulfillment of that commission

BASIC GUIDELINES FOR THE FACILITATOR

c Feedback after each Talk (session) a good way to gauge the impact of

your talk and to check if the prepared speech design is still consistent

with the needs of the group

d Assignment of Tasks make each participant feel that they are still a

part of your sessions The audience should share in performing certain

tasks such as preparing liturgy ice breakers keeping time arrangingthe room and convening the group

e Group Celebration Working for change is best done in a group

Community-building is thus essential in the form of a short program

eating together games and fun

f Individual Consultation some participants might need assistance in

clarifying personal issues with the matter discussed This can be best

done alone wih a facilitator who can help process the participant

concerned

1 Treat everyone as VIPrsquos In a situation where you encounter people a lot treating

people warmly or as VIPrsquos will make them feel good welcomed important and

affirmed and you can expect dynamic participation from them Treating people

otherwise will make them feel rejected not welcome and therefore you cannot

expect participation from them In all our dealings with people their attitudes

will always be determined by the way we treat them

2 Dynamic handshake Always extend a firm handshake In a way the firm

handshake will convey a feeling of warm and friendly reception

- Notice color of eyes

- Push a positive thought

3 Sincere compliments After the handshake make a sincere compliment to the

person by the way heshe looks And as we are complimented always say

ldquoThank Yourdquo No more No less

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

4 Catch and praise people doing something right It always feels goods to be

doing something right for others

5 Looks matter a lot The degree of our credibility is measured by the way we

look How do we dress up when speaking in front of people Do you wear the

proper attire Your grooming We will always be judged by the way we look

6 Two-second magic smile The best way to extend cordiality is to give a two-

second magic smile to the people we encounter Not a smirk

7 Push out empathy Empathy is putting oneself into the shoes of other peoplersquos

situation Compassion is one mark of a true leader This is entirely different

from sympathy which connotes comfort and understanding of how one feels

8 Respond to peoplersquos emotions not what they say Another mark of a true

leader is hisher ability to read peoplersquos emotions and making a proper response

to those emotions without being swayed

ELECTIONS AND THE DUTY OF THE CHRISTIAN

It is not dicult to feel the election fever -- even if the 2016 elections are still so months away It has

always been complained that the efforts of the Church and other non-political groups to educate

voters come too late It is the reason for this letter this early -- so that it may never be again said that

we spoke too late

The exercise of the right of suffrage is not only a political right It is also a moral obligation For the

Christian it is one of the most meaningful and effective means of contributing to the flourishing of the

Kingdom of God a kingdom of justice peace and love And so while politicians plan and strategize

and this early find ways of circumventing the law against pre-mature campaigning the Church cannot

be remiss in its obligation of forming the consciences of Catholic and Christian voters

Vote for the right reasons Vote not because you have been paid or promised bounty not becauseyou or your relatives have been promised employment or privilege but because you trust a person to

lead the community and to lead the country Just as the discerning voter will not be easily won over

by all the flattery in favor of one candidate neither should a voter allow lsquodemolition jobsrsquo to dissuade

him from choosing a person who is truly t for oce

Reject the notoriously corrupt but neither should one readily jump on the bandwagon of condemnation
