Town celebrates Migrants’ Day
March 5, 2011
STO. TOMAS — Families and relatives of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) in this town are set to celebrate the National Migrants day on Sunday, March 6.
Ed Balagtas, core group member and head of paralegal and advocacy of the Pampanga Archdiocesan Migrants’ Desk (PAMD), said a group was formed to provide various services and assistance to families of OFWs in the province.
Balagtas said the PAMD, headed by Rev.Fr. Arnie Serrano, who is also the director of the Archdiocese Commission on Family and Life, has lined up various activities to make the annual celebration of migrants’ day more meaningful to the families and relatives of OFWs.
“We have advised all participants to assemble at 7 a.m. at the provincial Capitol before proceeding to the St. Thomas the Apostle Parish in Sto. Tomas, where a mass will be celebrated by Archbishop Paciano B. Aniceto,” Balagtas said.
He said that after the mass, the PAMD will award the winners in the provincial search for the top three outstanding sons and daughters of migrant workers dubbed Gawad Anak ng OFW.
Rose Clarie Feliciano, another PAMD core group member, said the provincial winners will vie for the national search for the 10 outstanding sons and daughters of OFWs scheduled on March 17.
Feliciano added that on the same day, a services forum will be held with representatives of government agencies concerned with the welfare of OFWs as resource persons.
She added that PAMD has invited the local Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (Owwa), Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA), Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (Tesda), Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (Philhealth), Social Security System, and the Public Employment Services Office (Peso).
The Pampanga Action Center for OFW Concerns (Pacoc), an office recently established by Governor Lilia G. Pineda to provide necessary services and assistance to Kapampangans who work abroad, has also been invited to participate in the said services forum.
Balagtas said that PAMD, organized five years ago, has been conducting family counseling, especially in matters of spiritual concerns, and providing linkage services with agencies of the government among the families of the OFWs.
“We aim to strengthen the families left behind by the migrant workers by providing necessary counseling services through our parish migrant desk coordinators,” Balagtas said. (HPM)
