All Notre Dame schools here in Mindanao celebrate Notre Dame Day today. Here at Notre Dame of Kidapawan College (NDKC), it’s always a part of being a Catholic School to celebrate our Lady’s day. From the history of all Notre Dame Schools here in Mindanao, Mama Mary is honored by dedicating all the schools established by the Oblates of Mary Immaculate (OMI). Later, the different schools were handed over to different Congregations.

The Marist Brothers were invited in c.1945 to be part of the mission of the Oblates in Cotabato City. Some schools were given to the Religious of the Virgin Mary (RVM), Dominican Sisters (OP) and to the care of the Diocese of Marbel and Archdiocese of Cotabato. The Notre Dame Educational Association (NDEA) was created as part of of the goals to help build better futures of the young students from cultural groups/society here in the southern part of Mindanao.

For us to attain salvation, we submit ourselves to the will of the Almighty and most merciful God.

What would happen really if the Bangsamoro Juridical Entity was formally signed in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia? How would you put your faith to a group of people aspiring for peace when they cannot even control their own body? How would you believe to a peace process/agreement that caused fear, displacement and death?

Maybe the stupidity of some GRP panel and the vigilance of concern people, maybe the courage of many Mindanaoans were “blessings in disguise” to have the Supreme Court release the Temporary Retraining Order (TRO) for the signing of the Memorandum of Agreement. It is not only dividing the nation but indeed, caused fear and death to many. Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) commanders Bravo and Ombra Kato ordered the barbarious idea of killing women and children who would resist to their  orders.

According to one of the latest news, MILF forcers are now ready to war, unless the BJE-MOA is signed. Most places they want to include to the BJE territory, like Sultan Kudarat, some places in Iligan and North Cotabato, are not in favor to be under the BJE. Was this the reason why brutaly attacked the civilians? To take revenge againts them after the MOA was not signed on agreed date? Ambot na lang….
