Following the statement of Philippine national artist and folk dance research pioneer Francisca Reyes-Aquino, "Let folk dances be as they are - of the folk. We can not sacrifice heritage for progress," Hiyas strives to present Filipino folk dance in its most traditional form in an era where authentic steps and movements are modernized or forgotten. The word hiyas (pronounced hee-yahs) means "jewel" or "gem," referring to how its members truly treasure Philippine folk arts and culture. Hiyas is proudly a part of the Filipino Youth Coalition, a non-profit organization geared toward cultural awareness among Filipino youth in the south bay.

Fr Ricky Manalo will be our presider for the Simbang Gabi mass! Yipee!<br /><br />Fr. Ricky is a very famous composer. He wrote that song "Ang Katawan Ni Kristo", which we all love at St. Joseph. He also wrote a couple of other multi-cultural songs. His music is available at OCP's website or through ITunes.<br /><br />The entire Simbang Gabi 2007 team is so excited! We're all looking forward to experiencing a great liturgy. We hope everyone can come and witness this wonderful moment!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4606932765815501467-136240244438381589?l=paskopistaatpapuri.blogspot.com'/></div>Filipino Community of SJ/MSJhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01140409155672201042noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4606932765815501467.post-36099064933150732002007-09-13T15:49:00.000-07:002007-09-17T12:56:18.849-07:00Attention <span style="font-style: italic;">Pinoys</span>: We're gonna have a party!!!<br /><br />We've already started planning this year's (one day) Simbang Gabi celebrations! Yipee!!! I'm so excited. TFC-SJ Queen Bee (Nanette) and the Wizard of Music (Mark) met with me yesterday to brainstorm over the theme. They liked my idea of having a <span style="font-style: italic;">Barrio Fiesta</span>-inspired celebration. Alright!!!<br /><br />We will have the traditional dawn mass at the Old Mission Church, which will be followed by an awesome <span style="font-style: italic;">Barrio Fiesta</span> at the St. Joseph Church Parish Hall. So everyone, kindly start washing your Filipiniana clothes and practice wearing you <span style="font-style: italic;">bakyas</span>. <span style="font-weight: bold;">See you at the Mission on December 22, 2007 at 6 am!</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4606932765815501467-3609906493315073200?l=paskopistaatpapuri.blogspot.com'/></div>VMnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4606932765815501467.post-75932378114338069172007-09-09T17:39:00.000-07:002007-09-09T17:41:01.899-07:00We finally have a skeleton of our site up!
