SEA & PAC Regional Office Recognizes & Honors Movers of URI
Written by Regional Office URISEAP   
Wednesday, 09 July 2008
As we, in Southeast Asia-Pacific, take the next steps forward in our journey towards building and strengthening URI in our region, some of us who have journeyed the longest, and have seen how URI in our region has grown through the years, wish to express our gratitude to all the wonderful people in the region who have helped give birth to URI in our part of the world, and who continue to give it life and vitality.

They are the "MOVERS" who have been drawn to the URI by their ideals and the largeness of their vision, who have subsequently inspired the creation of their own CCs (and other CCs), and who continue to provide URI leadership in one way or another in their respective locales. In their hearts, minds, and ways of being with one another they hold the life, vitality and hope of URI in our midst. 

In the spirit of gratitude, joy, and love, we humbly attempt to recognize and honor them, the MOVERS of URI in Southeast Asia-Pacific-by presenting each one of them to you (one person a week) with a brief write-up on their invaluable contributions to the URI in our region.

Written by Orlan de Guzman, Jr.   
Monday, 23 June 2008
Culiat, Quezon City. When the women from different faith traditions on-board a convoy of three vehicles entered the Muslim grassroots community of Salam compound in Barangay Culiat, Quezon City, Metro Manila, they were merely looking forward to seeing again their new-found Muslim sisters and have a simple merry celebration of the Women’s Day with them. Little did they know that a kanduli (feast) awaited them, and a most colorful and intimate gathering of interfaith women would take place.

Manila, Philippines.  I am pleased to inform you that our Peacemakers’ Circle CC (representing the Philippine team in the URI MI Program) has just successfully concluded two modules of the pilot summer training workshop program on MUSLIM-CHRISTIAN DIALOGUE FOR NATION-BUILDING.
