Klement Way Of Praising God:We are United

by Franz Calipusan

Amidst the hardships of earning money now a days combined with the extreme difficulty of giving up your time for others, the Klement backpackers still pursue their passion of service to their fellow children of God, and for that cause they felt very rewarded. For the reason that the combination of  backpacking and ministry activity is a brilliant thing. The participants can enjoy and learn more from the low-cost travel style and aside from that they have this goal to share God's love to others along the way.

Klement Backpacking and Ministry: 11 days, 2 countries, 1 mission in Photos

by Regin Reyno

"The world's greatest need is consecrated effort for the salvation of souls."-Ellen G. White 

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.” -Mark Twain

On July 23, 2012, my batch in college, called "Klement" departed Philippines for an 11-day backpacking and ministry travel in Thailand and Cambodia. 

Day 1: Manila-Clark-Bangkok Travel

Tribute to KBM Participants

by Cheryl Gay Derequito

People come and go. But according to Farah, that belief has changed because Klement has stayed in her life until now.

Klement is who we are. Klement is our family. The Klement family will always be part of us no matter where we are. For some, it is where we find acceptance. It is where we can be our real self. It is where we can laugh the most and cry the hardest. The bullying is a sign that we love and accept each other that no matter how flawed we are, we can laugh and joke about them without being offended. We are closely knitted that despite our many differences in values, principles, status, interests, cliques and AGE(ahem…bato bato sa langit), we get along well.

We were talking with Regin and we talked about each Klement who joined the KBM. He mentioned that it is only this time that he really got to appreciate and admire some Klements whom he wasn’t really close with before. I’d like to give tribute to each KBM member in this blog.

ANGKOR WAT – Finally We Meet!

by Dodge Lecciones

Majestic structures…sophisticated engineering…intricate stone carvings…splendid works-of-art…

These are but a few of the so many descriptions that went running through my head as I finally set foot on this great and grandiose temple that took my attention through my readings ages ago. I dreamed, but never did I imagine that at a young age I’d actually roam around and inside the temple.

with my friend, Baijan. One of the official photographers of the group.

Who would ever expect that the "Just Chill," most relaxed MVC-SN batch would be able to  get together as early as 3 years after graduation and do something life changing?

Sunrise Over Angkor Wat

by Regin Reyno

One of the most famous sunrises in the world, is the sunrise over Angor Wat. A Hindu temple in Siem Reap, Cambodia which was built in 1112 AD by King Suyavarman II of the Khmer Empire. The most powerful empire in Southeast Asia during the 9th century. Many people actually wanted to witness this sunrise, as it is so stunning and a breathtaking experience. Many postcards being sold in Siem Reap, regarding Angkor Wat, depicts the sunrise. Paintings of the famous temples being sold in the market also portray the marvelous sunrise. It is so famous that, according to blogs that I've read, thousands of tourists flock early in the morning, in Angkor Wat, with all their tripods, cameras, video cams, just to witness the sunrise.
