MORESCO-1 joins our Member-Consumer-Owners, and the Local Government Unit of Laguindingan, and all its constituents in the celebration of the Fiesta in honor of the Exaltation of the Cross.

Exaltation of the Holy Cross, also called Universal Exaltation of the Holy and Life-Giving Cross or Holy Cross Day, liturgical feast celebrated on September 14 to honour the cross on which Jesus Christ was crucified. In the Eastern churches the feast dates back to the dedication of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre (the site of Christ’s tomb) in Jerusalem circa 335. It was adopted by the Roman Catholic Church in the 7th century and is also observed in various Protestant traditions, including Lutheranism and Anglicanism.

The universal symbol of the Christian faith, the cross represents Christ’s victory over death. The feast celebrates the redemptive transformation of a barbaric instrument of torture into a divine “tree of life” that brings hope to humankind. In some traditions, a cross is oriented to the cardinal directions to represent the universal nature of Christ’s sacrifice and prayers are said for the salvation of all.

Happy Fiesta Laguindingan.

It is with heartfelt thanks that we mark the end of  Director Christoper G. Maagad’s service to the MORESCO-1 Board.  Chris has been a studied and august voice in the Board’s deliberations.  He has a great consideration for public trust and protection, high personal standards, and his passion is evidenced by his vast and ongoing involvement as the Treasurer of the Board grappling with the hardest issues facing the travails of the electric cooperative’s journey towards the modernization of its operations while still connected to the advocacy of the rural countryside’s missionary electrification program.  

To simply express gratitude seems insufficient in this moment, but transitions often leave us at a loss for words as we consider all that has transpired.

Thank you Director Chris Maagad!

Our board of directors actively support the day to day work at MORESCO-1, establishing the long-term vision and stability for the organization with a focus on policy development, community engagement in their respective districts, and in corporate social responsibility outreach.

To that end, while we are about to embark on an election of a new board member for Lugait District who perhaps like the leaving one the new one will replace, he will be ready to roll up his sleeves and look forward to making meaningful contributions on our board committees and out in the community.

And we are very thankful for Director Shaun Dave T. Perez who will transition off our board and towards a new endeavor in life. Thank you very much for all the wonderful times. See you.
