The 4 Way Test
Of all the things we think, say
or do——
Is it the TRUTH?
Is it FAIR to all concerned?
Will it build GOODWILL and
better FRIENDSHIPS?
Will it be BENEFICIAL to all
concerned?

President’s Corner
Today, as I accept the responsi-
bilities and challenges to promote peace
through service and improve the lives in
our community, I will dedicate more of
my time, my talents, (if I have any) and my treasure, (if I have
more) to sustain and continue our signature projects in health, dis-
ease prevention, water and sanitation and literacy.
But, in order to achieve our goals, I ask your help now!
Fellow Rotarians and to the people who shared their time and
helped us all these years, I count on your support once again …..
Thank you to my Rotary Club of New Manila Heights
family for entrusting me with your vote of confidence and the for
the opportunity to lead our outstanding club to greater heights.
Special mention to my “tokayo,” Silver President Alex
Buot for a job well done!
I hope for the fulfilment of our plans and continuing pro-
jects, productive in fellowship and peace to the world through
service.
Peace be with you!
Someone once said that the reason why there is not much peace is be-
cause many people are only working for their self interests and are not
thinking of genuine service.
Thus, our theme for the year is a truly apt one — Peace through ser-
vice.

Let There Be Peace on Earth
Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on earth, the peace that was meant to be.
With God as our Father, brothers all are we.
Let me walk with my brother in perfect harmony.
Let peace begin with me, let this be the moment now.
With every step I take, let this be my solemn vow.
To take each moment and live each moment in peace eternally.
Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me.
