Angelus Official Statement Announcement

Discussed by: Anjo Calvario, Mary Joy Bonus.

Sept. 25, 2022. @ St Ben Parish

●Sequence of Events

So far, since nagka-pandemic, it either gave us opportunities na mag-spend ng time to rest and grow sa
mga gusto nating gawin. And I guess sapat na yung time na na-spend considering na nagagawa nyo yung
choices nyo to talk about angelus.

We even tried to encourage a new leadership for angelus coz we know that the mindsets from the old
leadership should be replenished by new people, new persons. Pero siguro at some point, we failed. And
so far, it led us to our current situation of having stuck, blank and uncertain affecting all of us in the
group.

●Sentiments

I've had different emotions sa mga nangyayari sa choir because in the span of two and a half years, I
tried to be around with you guys being:

1. A regular member, sarap pag member lang no?

2. A pure mass musician, it's lifting up your spirit pag alam nyong may tutugtog. At the musician's point
of view, mahirap lang talaga gumawa ng line up considering na galing ako sa labas.

3. A leadership advisor(for the supposed new leaders), I am supposed to spectate and be happy on the
sidelines.

4. Your leader. Iba yung presence pag nandyan yung kuya Janjo. (Small thing).

5. Just a choir spokesperson/representative specially pag may parishioner na gustong makipag-usap sa

choir

6. As a normal person outside service.

For sure may mga sentiments rin kayo. The more important thing is I want everyone to reflect entirely
on the things happened in their past two and a half years and check if how impactful is Angelus
regarding your choices and decisions made at that span of time.

●What now?

Sa ngayon, given the things I've discussed, we should be clear sa ating status sa choir, and it's safe to say
that we are in li-low/uncertain/stagnant/stuck status.

Yes we have our glory times. But everything comes at some point depende na rin sa outcome ng ating
mga actions, just like now. We are only good as how we are doing yesterday. Our triumphs in the past
are just memories, and it's not even worth bragging. We are servants and should always be.

It's not someone or somebody's fault. Kailangan lang natin i-Accept na nangyari to.

We need to be clear on ourselves kung ano tayo ngayon.

This is not a negative mindset.

Negativity is not even being sure or decided sa current situation natin and still not doing anything about
it, or trying to have someone to do something instead.

I encourage everyone to accept what we are now. Let's set a point for this one.

●My Vision

I have a vision, na dadami lang tayo sa pagpasok ng December(simbang gabi, events, etc.).

Sounds vibrant and exciting. But we don't need to wait until December para makapagdecide. Coz all
days in service matters.

Given our current situation and how our mind works, it's not encouraging to bring this set of people
going to the advent. Hindi masaya na happy moments lang ang nagma-matter but should also "the
process" moments.

Our process shall start not only during this bermonths but as early as 2hrs before the Sunday 4pm mass.
My personal prayer now is for us, for each and everyone of us to have the inner calmness to see what
have been through for us and see kung saan ba talaga tayo gustong dalhin ni Lord. . . .and reflect on that
point moving forward.

●Choice

Finally, it's still all up to you.

You're all grown ups and already done significant choices in your lives.

At this point, I encourage you to do this-Angelus needs your choice to make for yourselves. Coz at this
point once you've made your decision, Angelus can move forward and so do you.

A decision after checking on yourselves and see if these things still really matter to you, and how able
are you to identify yourselves in our current status.

Ano ba talaga ang gusto mo?
