OPENING PRAYER

Almighty God, Our loving Father, we thank you for our 41 years of
existence
united, competitive and fast growing

We thank you for Your Guidance in times we needed You most and we
thank You for making us all part of this momentous day. We pray also
for all our regional fish port personnel, past and present.

Let us include in our prayers the following intentions:

1. For our present Administration, may God continue to guide and

shower them with His blessings so that as servant of the people, all
of us shall be able to exceed our best not only for our personal gains
but most importantly for the upliftment of the industry and the
continuing success of PFDA in accomplishing its major final outputs.

2. For Father Sonny, the ELIM Community especially Dra. Jane and Sr.
Tess, the Choir, Lectors and Commentators and all those who have
unselfishly provided for our spiritual nourishment, may God
continue to bless them.

3. For all our colleagues who have gone ahead of us, especially our
beloved former General Managers, Atty. Benito Q. Bengzon and
Eduardo M. Chu, AGM Maranan, and all the souls in purgatory, may
their soul rest in peace and let perpetual light shine upon them.

4. For all our colleagues who are in much need of medical attention,
especially Fr. Sonny, may the Holy Spirit imbibed in them the healing
power of His Almighty.

5. And all of us PFDA employees, that as we move forward, bless us

Lord with will power and determination so that we may continue to
do business with passion and confidence and that we may do our
duties as genuine public servants.

Please stand as we join the choir in the singing of the Entrance Hymn
