ReplyDelete1. I believe that there is no ine to blame but ISIS,they are destroying the lives of thousands, if not millions of people all because of their beliefs. The governemnt in Syria is really trying their best but its reslly hard.
2. I would tell them to put themselves in the shoes of the refugees and be understanding and show full support and try to accommodate as many as they can
3. It is very sad, but you can also see this as a blessingin disguise, thing sike this happen everyday but no one is aware, this incident raised awareness.
4. It is first to educate, because the reason people want to join ISIS does not make sense if they were properly educated. Also to really talk with these people and end this chaos with no more violence. Lastly for the many countries around the world to lemd a hand and help these people.
5. As simple as posting about this and raising awarness
6. By donating to the different organizations supporting this cauae
7. I would tell them that this is a warning of how bad tuings can get if things in Mindanao gets out of hand.
8. I would tell them to help out in any way, wether donations or adopting or etc.
9. Of course! We will help them as long as they need it, because we understand what they have gone through and no one should experience that.
10. Dear God,
Please help the refugees and guide them through all the hardships that they arw going through. Please give them the strength and the faith to keep pushing on and not giving up. And for those that have lost their lives in an attemp to get to a better life, please guide their souls to the gates of Heaven where they will be in eternal happiness with You

ReplyDelete1. The one to blame is war or humanity itself. The reason there is war is because of conflict of man. Humans can't get along together and those who are in peace gets affected by violence that is war.
2. They are already suffering and the least you can do is help those who are not part of the war and are only affected by its violence.
3. Their deaths are exteremely sad. They shouldn't have suffered like that. They just wanted a better life other than conflict and war.
4. As a Lasallian we should show them how we should take care of each other, be one. Also to educate and to give them knowledge on what's happening and how to stop conflicts from happening.
5. Social media can be used by spreading the news so that it may get international attention so that other countries would hear of this incident and help these refugees.
6. Spread awareness and support non-government organizations that help these people.
7. I would advice them that if a neighboring country or any other country for that matter needs help we should offer them our help. We should also open our country to those refugees. We Filipinos are known to be hospitable and we can show the rest of the world that by accepting refugees with open arms.
8. If any of these people need a home to stay in you should accept them and maybe adopt the children.
9. Yes I would. They deserve a better a life and my family can offer them that. I also wanted another sibling.
10. Dear God, please help those who are suffering in Syria, those who cannot escape the terror and war. Also help those refugees around the world who have no home to stay in and are lost. Give these people guidance and let those others help them also. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
In my opinion, it should be directed at their President, Bashar al-Assad. He had an authoritarian rule over the country, and the authoritarian rule is what restricted its people's freedom.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries? My best advice to those indifferent European governments is that they should accept the refugees. I understand that their presence in their respective countries can affect the culture of their own, but lives are at stake here. Just because they are Syrians doesn't count as an excuse for them to be left for dead. They should follow countries like Singapore. It is a mix of many different people, yet they live in harmony. Why can't they be like that?
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I was deeply saddened by the fact that Aylan, his brother, and his mother died from what could've been a brighter future. Aylan and his brother are still children. They could have brought a new hope to Syria. Why is it that the European countries wouldn't open up to them? For their mother, she could have further helped them grow into the people who can help save their country. Her love would have helped the whole family together.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- First off is help the refugees. They matter first because they are the ones who need help the most. I know that I live far from them, but the least I can do is to provide them their needs by sending them some of what I have.
- If no one tries to give them a home, I'll try to make mine a place for them. I know that we are far from Syria, but if there is no choice for them anymore in Europe, I'd be glad to open mine.
- I'll also convince a relative and my in-laws in Europe to open up to them. I'm sure they'd understand.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
- I'm not sure about what I can do with social media, but maybe I can create an event for everyone to participate wherein it involves on how to directly help the Syrian refugees. Once we have a plan, we can execute it for them, but for this one, we need to get as much people as we can.

ReplyDelete6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees? I pledge to help those people who are working hard to help those Syrian refugees. I can communicate with them, so I will know what I can do to help them cater to the refugees without having to go there.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem? My advice to our government would be that we, too, should open our arms to them. I'm sure we've opened our arms before to refugees. Why not help them too? We have enough resources. Our only problem is allocating them. It may be hard for the Syrians to travel a long way to our country, but if we provide them with decent transportation and a place ready for them, we can cater to them.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I do have relatives (in Switzerland) and in-laws (my sister is married; they reside in London, England), and I'll ask them to open their arms. If the government won't allow them, they should persuade them. I'm not sure how hard it will be, but even if no one responds to the refugees first, I'll convince them to be the first ones.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes, I'm willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees because they need our help. I know that we have a choice, but I believe that helping these refugees out is the first step in saving Syria. They are Syrian citizens, and once they are ok, and the war is over, they can rebuild their country.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear Lord,
For those refugees like Aylan who have lost their lives trying to hope for a better future, may You be able to help them rest in peace. Lord, please guide those surviving refugees to be able to find what they are looking for: a safe place. Please keep them safe as they venture towards their refuge, and I hope that more people would open up more to them. I also pray that those people who are indifferent would be able to settle things with them peacefully in order to accept them for who they are and to create harmony among them while they live temporarily with them as the war in Syria goes on.
Amen
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDeleteISIS is definitely the cause of their burdens. No matter how hard the society tries to recuperate ISIS just ruins it all over again
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I would tell them to give as much support as they can, such by donating material needs that is not money, because if it's money then it can be used or taken away by ISIS.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
It's too soon for them and honestly it wasn't fair. It definitely wasn't their time yet and soon I hope the amount of refugees who went through their life will be free and will live doing so.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
First I would give as much food, water, and the like that I can to them
Second I would run donations, drives, fun runs, etc. for them so that I can raise funds to further help them
And lastly, I can try to run a program that can collect people who are willing to go there and help educate or do whatever they can to assist the Syrian community.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
By spreading the word of the hardships these people go through and to help seek out and give the message to help assist them
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I will spread prayers and messages that can inform people on what they can do by the least to help these people
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
I can request that they give alms and support to the Syrian people by running drives and donations for them. And I would ask him to tell the people of the Philippines to use this situation as a message in comparison to the crisis with the MILF and the like.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I will advice them to give out whatever they can to support these people.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
If I can manage to handle it, then why not. I want to help as much as I can so that I can bring hope and be the hero of this child. To save him from the wretched life he lived is a blessing, not a burden to me.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear Lord,
Today we give you praise and thanks for keeping all of us safe and in good care. We are very grateful for this because there are people like Aylan and his family who went through massive damages as they lived and in the process lost everything, including their lives. All I ask is that you bless them more as we pray for them because they deserve a second chance and not a life like this.
In Jesus Name,
Amen
ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people? I think we should blame the US since they are the ones bombing it in the first place
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries? They should let there people do what they want but in moderation but not completely shut
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe? They should allow people to enter or leave the country if they choose to

Dear lord please guide the government and see what theyre doing wrong amen
Camilo De Guzman JI
ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I think the government along with ISIS is to blame for this, for their lack of empathy and care for other human beings and for their selfishness obviously shown in their actions. I feel if that they had more care for others and realized that war is not the solution, everything would be better. If they could be understanding to all sides of the conflict, it would be easier for all.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
What if it was your own country in the conflict? What if World War 3 happened among your countries? How would you feel if other countries were indifferent to you and your people?
Have a heart and some empathy for these people, selfishness and lack of empathy is what started this war, if you want this to end, and want to lessen the casualties, then help these people.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I feel that they should not die in vain, they are in the spotlight for a reason. They are here to awaken our hearts and open our eyes to the harsh livings conditions and how easy it is to leave this world due to this war. We cannot bring them back, all we can do i pray for their souls and their loved ones, and more importantly is to use this as a realization to stop this. We cannot bring them back, but we can prevent more people from leaving the same way.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
> Develop empathy and care for others, start with the root feelings that when used will be able to solve all these problems plaguing these countries and families.
> Spread the happenings of the countries on social media and urge governments to help these refugees, I know the Philippines cannot be of much help in housing them, so we should urge those who can to do so.
> Donate, support, help organizations who are trying to help and aid these refugees. Donate money, clothes, and other things to give them better lives.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
I will use social media to educate all that I can reach, those who are lucky to have what these refugees don’t, need to know that each one can do something to help, so I must spread awareness and do my part.
Camilo De Guzman JI
ReplyDelete6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to donate my time and my help to those working to help these people, I may be far away from them, but I can support them.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
I would advise them to bring home all OFWs who are there to come back and to bring back those that they can. All are welcome and i think that using the OFWs abroad to let others know that the Philippines is a safe home for them would work in giving them a good place to seek happiness.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I would tell them to see what they can do to help, if its donating, volunteering or just housing the refugees, I would urge them to open their hearts to these people who really need it.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes because who am I to turn my back on people who have nothing? Who am I to not care and just let them die in the state that they are in? What if it was me in their position? I would need someone to care for me.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear Lord, I know I have asked so much of you already but please help these people. Give them hope in You and Your plan, let them know that so many people care about them and that they have a home in so many places in the world. Let them remember that You are always with them and loving them and by their side. Let them not lose faith in You because with You, nothing is too hard, too strong, and too horrible. I hope Aylan is with You up there and happy with You and his family. Please help his father that he may be able to get through this tough time and that he may also inspire others to finally end this war.
1. I believe that we should blame the terrorist group ISIS for forcing those people into the situation that they're in right now.
ReplyDelete2. I would tell them that it is their duty as a human being to do good to other people that are in a difficult position in life.
3. I believe that they are one family of many that are being torn apart and destroyed by this conflict
4. I would first spread awareness and then I would gather donations from people and I would help the refugees by sending donations to them.
5. I would use social media to spread awareness about the situation that they're in.
6. Save a refugee, Save a life
7. I would tell them to be more active and helpful to the other institutions supporting the refugees and to provide assistance for those I need
8. I will tell my relative to donate and help the refugees and to take a family in like what the pope told everyone to do
9. Yes because God would have wanted us to save a life even tho he is only one child from millions it still makes a difference
10. Dear Almighty God I would like to ask you to please save the lives of the refugees and to help them get back their lives after being saved. We are all your children lord no matter what religion and I know that you would never let a child of yours suffer. Amen.

- the ISIS ppl cuz they're the ones causing trouble in Syria and they dont have sympathy for the other human beings

- You should have mercy to them because what's happening right now is possible to happen in your country as well so show some justice
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
- i feel really bad for Aylan because at a young age, he experienced the worst thing someone to experience as a young person. But for everyone, it's such a bad experience since God made this world to be appreciated by humans but then with this, they wont be able to appreciate what God has done for them

6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
- I may be far away from them but my prayers for them can reach them so the best thing to do is to pray and leave this issue to God because he's the only one that can solve this issue

- Father God in heaven, we thank you for this undeserved privilege to be able to live a peaceful life, Lord, we lift you up the issue in Syra because we know that we're human and we're just weak but you're the only one who can solve this problem O God. Please Lord show them your light and give them hope as they are facing a dark situation right now. Please use your people to help them and use them as instruments for you greater Glory
In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
Gabby Paca JD
ReplyDelete1. For me the people to blame is the ISIS. They have caused so much terror in our world now. The ISIS should pay for what they have done because they have removed so much of the peace in our world.
2. The advice I can give is that the countries should continue in what they are doing and which is finding a way to accept the refugess heading to their country. An action that should be done is that they get rid of the ISIS in any way possible, so that peace can be rebuilt faster.
3. I can say that what has happened has affected the civillians more than the government. It has affected the civillians more because they are the ones who get hurt from the ISIS since they are trying to flee the country and they don't want anything to be told from the civillians that have escaped.
4. As a lasallian I can do something to help:
> I can donate to the governement so that they can complete the action that they are trying to do to help.
> I can spread different articles on social media so that the other countries can be aware that the people need help.
> I can support all the projects that the government will do in order to help.
5. I will use social media in order to spread the word on the action that we should do in order to help. For the better of the people who need help and also for the greatness of the Lord.
6. I pledge to not stop praying that something good can happen to the people so that they may be in peace.
7. I would advice them to bring home all the people they can help in the country so that we may also show that our country supports everything no matter how small our country is.
8. I would tell them to help the people who need help like if they have to donate of open their household to the refugees who need help.
9. Yes I am willing to adopt a child, because I will show to the child that I am good person and I support anyone who is in need of help.
10. Dear Lord, Please help all the people who need help in all the wars that happen now so that there may be peace in our world. Amen
Joaquin Carlos A. Aguillo Junior D
ReplyDelete1. In my opinion, the people who need to be blamed are the members of the ISIS group. This is because they brainwash the people into doing what they want so that they can get the freedom that they want. This is wrong because they need to be more thoughtful of the lives of the others who sacrifice their lives for them.
2. I would tell them to imagine if this crisis is happening to their countries. Most likely, they would also want to get away from the war and go to other countries. This is why they should be generous and welcome the refugees in their countries.
3. I feel really sorry for them because they are the innocent people but they are the ones being affected by the violence. I also feel sorry for what happened to Aylan's dad because he lost his whole family.
4. One solution will be the welcoming of all the refugees affected by the war. This will give them a temporary home until they can find a new home. Another solution is to put some action against the ones who are involved in the war. All the nations should help each other in stopping the violence in Syria. Lastly, I would want to help the refugees by donating some food and clothes so that they may have a good life.
5. I can start an organization on social media that aims to aid the refugees from Syria. We can help by donating their basic needs and by building homes for them.
6. I would donate to various organizations that address the problem. I will also pray for the betterment of the lives of the refugees.
7. I would tell him to help them by giving some food and shelter so that they may live peacefully. I will also tell the government to allow them to enter our country because I believe that we are capable of giving them a decent life. All we need to do is to properly manage our resources and lessen the corruption.
8. I would ask them to help in any way. Maybe they can donate some food and clothing to them or help them in settling down in Europe.
9. Yes, because it is the right thing to do. These people are facing a massive problem in their lives. The least thing we can do is to help them get good lives again.
10. Dear God, I pray that you guide these refugees so that they may live a good life. Give them strength and hope so that they may go through the current problem they are facing. Lastly, I ask You to guide the souls of the ones who died so that they may enter Your Kingdom
1. I believe that isis should be blames because they are destroying the lives of the people and they are terrorizing them. Isis lacks morality and they don't care about lives of other people.
ReplyDelete2. I would advice the other european governments to care about the people because if the things that are happening will happen to their own people, they would not feel good about it as well.
3. I believe that Aykan, his brother, his mother, doesn't have to die because they are innocent. For the refugees, they deserve to get their lives back, the events that have been occuring have been destroying their lives and they deserve to live a better life. We should all pray for them and to pray that the wars will be over.
4. Show empathy for the other people. We should know that they are experiencing hardships and because of this, we should care
Do what you can to help them, like join organizations that help the refugees so that you can help in saving their lives.
I would make other people aware of the happenings so that may help if they want.
5. I would use social media to teach others about what is happening and i will teach them that they can help, just like donating. We have to make sure that many people are aware of the things that are happening.
6. I pledge to pray for the refugees so that God may guide them to peace.
7. I advice them to be open to the syrian refugees so that they may be safe because we have resources to help these people.
8. I advice them to do their best to support these people.
9. I am willing to adopt a kid or a family because we can share our blessing and we have to help others in need because that is what God wants us to do.
10. Dear Lord, please help the people who are in need and please make the bad things happening to other countries stop and please bring peace to our world so that it can be a better place for us.
CL seat work 2
ReplyDelete1. I blame the leader of Syria because of his terrible dictatorship that caused the people to revolt against him.
2. My advice is to let the people in to your countries because we are all equal and we must accept each other no matter what happens. You as people must help them, they only want to seek a new life in Europe because of the problems that are happening in their war torn country
3. What happened to them isn't fair, they should have a better life because of the bad things they experienced in their country. But right now it maybe alright because they are now in the hands of God where eternal life is present.
4.
- Create a Facebook page to spread awareness to the Syrian refugees who want to start a new and better life.
- Influence the people to do what is right so that they could help.
- Educate the people to do what is right.
5. Let the people in the media document the life of the refugees like how hard their life is and why they want to live a better life away from their country.
6. I would donate resources to organizations that help the refugees in Syria
7. They should start fund raisers so that they could use the money to support their people. They could also put up a stand where people can donate the things that they want to donate and from there the government is gonna send that to Syria to help the refugees.
8. I would tell them to support the people who want to accept the Syrian refugees. I would tell them to raise awareness of the problem so that this problem may be solved by the European Union.
9. Yes because it is the right thing to do and Jesus would do the same.
10. Dear lord please guide the Father today as he face the challenges alone and hope that you would given a better life. To his family please take care of them with your grace and may their soul rest in peace. Lord please bless the father that he may surpass his hardships in his life now and hope that he would still have faith in you. Amen
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDeleteBasing it from my own opinion, there would be no one to blame except for the ISIS, along with the supremes with it. Humanity has become like this becaused of their morbid intentions and act of irresponsibility. Obnoxious poisons have gone through their minds that affects the society of Syria today. They failed to think of the further consequences and just went with the current flow of their immorality.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
One thing that I can tell them is: If you want peace and order now amongst the countries,mthen open your hearts and minds. Large entities and more things inside it could be affected, but you shoud never put the lives of the other people at stake. You can't just own the epitomy of a better country just because you are rich with your economy. Please base it from the worth of people you have helped, people who have benefitted from your blessings and achievements.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I understand their real intentions for escaping such. However, if God had a reason, then their real time should be inevitable. As humans and Christians, we should pray for their souls. Let us be thankful that they have yet not experience of what's more morbid to come in this world- that they are with our Lord Jesus Christ now.

They should be more concerned and open to this issue, especially that their country/ continent is involved with this. However, they should not forget to take care of themselves for any danger could just be standing around the corner.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Honestly, I will be willing to help them, accordingly to my fullest extent. However, to adopt a kid would not be my choice because this would be hard not just for me, but for the kid who will be experiencing a new kind of environment and family. I will do my best to help them and that"/ all I could promise.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.

1. The people who should be blamed are the ones who are instigating/propagandists of the war.
ReplyDelete2. These countries should be more considering and sympathetic because these refugee families have no where to go and all they want is a better life.
3. The story of Aylan made me very sad because he was so young and he had his whole life ahead of him yet being a casualty of war stole that life from him. It saddens me to hear stories like this and I hope that it stops.
4. Firstly I can encourage our own government to help and aid the refugees. Secondly, with the use of social media I can spread the word about these refugees in hopes that people from other countries become more sympathetic and help aid the families. Lastly, I will pray to God and ask that he may help these families and stop the war in Syria.
5. I will retweet and post about this topic in Facebook in order for others to have a growing awareness about this topic.
6. I promise to pray for all the refugees who are struggling for a better life because of the war ongoing in Syria.

8. I would advice my relatives to also try to aid these families even if there are risks. I would ask them to help.

10. Dear God,
Please bless all those who are suffering from this war. May they have faith in you and may you keep them safe protect them, and guide them. Help them lead a better life rather than having suppressed freedom in their country. I hope that the war will stop soon so that no more casualties have to suffer. Amen.
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?

2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?

3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I give my deepest condolences to the father for losing his family trying to attain freedom. Freedom always has a price, and for the father's, his family. And I believe that this should have not happened. They escaped Syria to escape death only to meet it on while trying to escape. They deserved a better life.

1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?

5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?

-For me, I don't believe anyone, or a specific person, is to blame for the troubles the citizens of Syria are experiencing. If anything, I believe it's Syria as a whole as to why they experience these problems. No one is perfect, that's a given, and people will always have their flaws, whether drastic or not. A few weeks ago, I read an article explaining the situation of Syria, where it all began and what happened. From that point of view, anyone would choose to blame the government or the leadership of Bashar al-Assad (the president of Syria). But then again, who voted for him? The people did. How the government handled Syria's environmental situation was absolutely horrible and selfish. But how the citizens of Syria handled it, wasn't right either.
2.
-Take it from the refugees perspective, place yourself in their position, look at these people as a member of your family. Imagine it, would you be able to neglect a refugee if he/she was related to you? Is he/she was a loved one? What if you were in his/her place? Wouldn't you want to be given a chance to get back on your feet again?
3.
-It's a devastating sight, it's absolutely heart-wrenching. It makes me wonder what lengths they had to go through just to reach safety. Why was their only option to flee? Who else is out there that we have not seen? I hope that those who survived will be able to receive the basic necessities. I hope Europe, no, the entire world, will open their arms to these refugees. I pray God will be with these people, guiding them and protecting them.
4.
-As we are still young, the best that I can think of doing is giving donations, gathering all the things I don't need, all the extra food we have, and giving it to these people.
-Alongside with the current projects we have today, build more houses — maybe even a building! — that can accommodate both our people and the refugees.
-I know it's not much but to pray for them and follow the footsteps of Pope Francis.
5.
-Show them the article that explained the situation of Syria! As well as the article wherein it says that Pope Francis is taking action in accommodating the refugees.
6.
-What we can do now? For the countries from a far? Is to pray for them. Actually, to do anything that can help, anything within our power. When given the chance, we will come to help, without division or xenophobia.
7.
-As mentioned in the previous answers, hopefully if it's not asking for too much (due to the many problems we're still facing in our country today), maybe we can try accommodating these refugees, of give donations!
8.
-Think of them as how you think of us. Family.
9.
-Personally, I would, but I wouldn't be able to accompany them for a long time. All I can do is provide enough food and water that'll last them a week or so. But if it's within my power, I'll look around for places which are able to accommodate them.
10.
-Lord, please help these people, guide them with your light. May they find comfort and a place to seek refuge, may you give them a safe haven for them to thrive and survive. May the rest of the world see the problems these Syrian citizens are facing, as well as the other world problems that are not talked about today be acknowledged and dealt with accordingly. Shower your distressed children (the refugees) with love, give them hope and reason. May we all act upon love to help our neighbors, not hate. Amen.

Islamic States of Iraq and Syria (ISIS terrorist group)
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
Perhaps to give the refugees humanitarian support, possibly in ways other than welcoming them onto their land, such as food, water and other forms of aid.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I feel that the terrorists should stop what they are doing and take a look on civilian casualties directly and indirectly.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
• give/donate to these victims
• pray for their safety
• hope to end terrorism

I would have to say no, maybe what I would do is to donate/give in cash and/or in kind to these people. A reason is that it's, what I think, too much of a responsibility. Also there are other reasons.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear God, I pray that the people of Syria would live normal lives and that terrorist groups don't exist in this world anymore, and that they will return to a better homeland. Amen.

1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
- For me, I think that the people who lack empathy and compassion, such as the ISIS and the government of the countries who wouldn't let the refugees into their borders, are to be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people. They only think about themselves without thinking about the millions of people who will be affected by their actions. They thought of war as a solution, when in fact, war was actually the problem. They could have resolved whatever issues they have by peaceful means and negotiations.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
- The advice I would give them is to simply think about the children. Many of these children, which are the next generation, would not be able to see another sunrise because of their actions. The more indifferent they are towards these refugees, the more families they would kill. So they should act now.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
- My thoughts are that they did not deserve this treatment. In fact, no one in this world deserves to pay money to illegal smugglers just for their safety. I think that they deserve better. As such, the government should take action for the safety of their civilians in times of crisis like these. Everyone deserves equal treatment regardless of position or social status for their safety.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- As a Lasallian, concrete actions/solutions I can do in order to address this world problem are the following:
- Donate money, clothing and food to charitable organizations that helps in the current crisis in Syria.
- If there will be Syrian refugees in our country, to give my time and services in helping them.
- By propagating empathy and concern to other people in small and simple ways- such as posting in social media to attract other people into helping them in their plight.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
- Social media is a powerful tool which can definity make a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees. I will post my thoughts and opinions in social media in order to attract other people to donate and pray for the lives of these refugees, and for the peace and order in their country. With this support and participation from the millions of social media users, we can help these refugees in their aim for peaceful, free and quiet lives.

- One pledge I can do or promise with regard to my post/s in Facebook/Twitter is to be sincere and truthful to all of them. I shall keep my promises, such as donating, or giving my time and services not only for my name, but for the alleviation of these refugees' plight and suffering.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino Administration to address this problem?
- The advice I can give to the Aquino Administration to address this problem is to wholeheartedly accept these refugees if ever they come to our country. They should not refuse or be indifferent to them just like the other European governments of countries who are selfish. We should be an example to other countries/nations.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
- If I have relatives in Europe, I would tell them to help these refugees in any way that they can, such as donating, putting time and effort into caring for them and praying for their safety and well-being.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
- If I were given the chance, I would be willing to adopt a kid or family from these refugees in order to be the spark of change. I want to help them, and let other people realize that it would not hurt at all to be selfless and sympathetic. We should all realize that this problem affects all of us, directly or indirectly.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
- Dear God, please bless all of these people who are in desperate need if security and freedom. May You give them the strength to attain a life of peace, security and well-being. Let them all have faith to face whatever challenges and trials they are facing right now, that they will be able to endure them and rise 'till the very end. For the welfare of Aylan and his family, that they will find strength and compassion for what happened. Aylan is now in Your hands, Lord, as well as all the other people who were not able to make it. Please guide and care for them. All of this we ask in Your mighty name, Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
- In my own opinion, it's the government and ISIS who should be blames for the crisis on the lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people. Why? Because they don't know how to empathize with other people. They are selfish and don't care about the citizens of Syria.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
- The best advice I can give is if you really care for your country, you'll do everything for it to be safe. Being selfish and not doing anything to stop the madness won't solve anything.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
- No one should ever die in vain and I feel really bad for them because they just want to have a good life, that's not too much to ask for, right? We can't bring them back anymore. We should just pray for them and hope for the best.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- In order to address this world problem, I must know how to care for others. Learn how to empathize with people.
- As Lasallians, I must know what's happening and spread awareness.
- I can donate, support, and join/help organizations who are trying to help these refugees.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
- I can utilize social media as a tool to make a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives. I can educate all the people I can reach, make them realize that they are so lucky to have what the refugees are wishing to have.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
- I pledge to donate anything that can help and lessen the sufferings of the refugees. I would give time and effort just to make them feel that I'll be there for therm, whether I'm halfway across the world or not.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
- The only advice I can give to the Aquino administration is for them to bring back all the OFWs because they are probably suffering there. Make them feel that they are always welcome to come back and just stay here. Make them feel that they would be safe here in our country.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
- I would ask my relatives in Europe to help the refugees. Make them look for something to do to help. No matter how little you have, you can always find something to give ♡
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
- Yes, I'm willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees if given the chance. Because you're supposed to help people who are in need. Who are we to not help? We are not God. We all have to be here for each other.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
- Lord, I adore you. Sorry for all the wrong doings I've done. Thank you so much for the blessings you've given me, I can never thank you enough for never leaving me.

They need you more than ever. Amen.

1. In my opinion, the people who need to be blamed are the members of the ISIS group. This is because they are very selfish, they don't care about other people.
2. I would tell them to imagine if this happened to their respective countries. This is why they should donate and whole heartedly welcome the refugees.
3. I am very sad because they are the innocent people but they are the ones being affected by this war.
4. 1) support and donate the refugees
2) pray for their safety
3) help in other ways
5. I can start by spreading the news to everyone so that they would informed about what happened and hopefully they'll help.
6. I pledge to spread the news to everyone and donate as much goods as I can.
7. I would tell him to help by donating food. I would also tell him to bring Filipinos there so that they can build shelters for the refugees.
8. I would tell them to donate food and clothing to the refugees.
9. Yes, because it is the right thing to do. Everyone deserves a happy life, everyone should be given opportunities.
10. God Pls bless the refugees with food, shelter and safety. Pls guide the souls of the ones who died and bring them to your kingdom.

ReplyDelete1. Who else is to blame but the terrorists and others who kicked off all the conflict going on not just in Syria, but in the entire Middle Eastern region.
And because of that conflict, people are veing driven out of their homes, much like the Syrian refugees.
2. If any of you governments have a heart, just open up these refugees and give them a place to stay, just for as long as this aweful conflict continues.
And if you cant do that, find another way to help them, that's all I ask.
3. I can definitely say, that Aylan, his brother's and mother's death brought to light how absolutely aweful the war going on in the Middle east is.
Same goes for the many other refugees that died on the way.
4. I could try and send/donate food or something to the refugees to try and help them, I could also try and raise awareness of how aweful their situation is in someway, or maybe start something to help them out somehow.
5. I can use social media to raise awareness in whatever way, may it be through making or sharing posts, showing videos or through some other way.
6. Im not really sure myself what I can pledge, in my eyes Im just a kid who can't really do anything massive helpful or the like.
Maybe I can pledge my spiritual aid or something along those lines.
7. Same advice I gave earlier, help these poor people in whatever way you possibly can.
8. Please help these people, they've been through absolute hell and they could use any little bit of help they could get.
So please, just help them.
9. Realistically, I really couldnt since it would be a lot of stress on my mom.
So, unfortunately I dont think I could do this.
10. God, please help the various refugees from the Middle East in whatever way you possibly can, and please prevent any more tragedies like what happened with Aylan and his family.
Thank you.

ReplyDelete1. I would say that the terrorists should be blames for the crisis happening among the Syrian people because there wouldn't be a crisis if it weren't for them.
2. The best advice I can give is for them to accept refugees and help them survive through the crisis because they are badly in need of attention and help. If they can help the refugees, then they should.
3. My thoughts are quite sad. Honestly, it's sad to know that people have to risk the death of their family just to look for a safe haven. They don't deserve to die and it's unfair that they do.
4. As a Lasallian, I can pray for the people who are facing this crisis. I can also support the people who shelter the refugees and I can do my best to help assist them.
5. Through social media, I can post things that would help the refugees and I can use it to improve awareness to everyone about their situation.

1.i blame the terrorists because they are the ones who are causing the lives of innocent people to be in risk because of their actions. I also somehow blame the government for failing to sympathize and lack of action towards the problem.
ReplyDelete2.my advice is that they should really put more effort into saving these people and helping them any way they can in order to get them back to living their normal lives.
3.i feel very bad because they died trying to avoid the crisis showing just how desperate people are just to leave the country because the conditions are so bad.
4.
A. I would donate my old goods and food to the refugees because they really need it.
B. I would offer them a prayer because prayers are very strong and could give them the strength they need to overcome this tragedy
C.i could tell more people about the issue to spread awareness
5.social media is a very useful way to spread awareness if you use it correctly and wisely so I would tell more people about the issue so they may be more aware of the situation and could do the right thing.
6.I pledge to donate my old goods to the refugees and to pray for them everyday 😊
7.the administration should try to help the countries affected since it's the Christian thing to do and help those in need.

ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, it's the terrorists' fault because they ruined families and they are selfish.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?

3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I think that all these people who died before reaching Europe are brave because they know they might die trying to escape. Aylan, his mother and his brother are fortune's fools because they were able to escape death in Syria but then they met death on the way to redemption.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
Three things I can do are donating, raising awareness on this world issue, and helping as much as I can to get the refugees out of Syria.

9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
I will adopt a refugee family, because if I were in their situation I would want someone to help me. Also, I believe that everyone deserves a chance to live.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear God, I praise and thank you for giving me a good life. I sincerely apologize for taking for granted the comforts and privileges that are given to me. Thank you so much for letting us know about these situations so that everyone could find ways to help. Please help these refugees find solace and please help them find homes so that children such as Aylan would not die before reaching a good dying age. Amen.
1. Isis, cause they started the war.
ReplyDelete2. They should help them, because it is the right thing to do.
3. We should, as a community of christians, help people in Syria, before there will be further damage.
4. Donate to, learn and preach about the Syrian people.
5. Share stories about the sufferings of Syrian people and how you can help them.
6. I will do my best to help the Syrian people.
7. We should help them, because like many others who helped the Philippines in their harsh times, it is our nature to be there for each other as Christians.
8. Help them as others have helped you.
9. No, because I will give too much, but I will still try my best to help them by donating and sharing information about their current condition.
10. Lord, may you shine kindness into this dark land. In their dire time, may they not lose hope, but only strengthen their faith by appreciating the little good things they.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
- I think that ISIS should get all the blame because of what they are doing. They have destroyed the homes and took the lives of many syrian people and that brought them into fear because of what they have seen happening in their country.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
- Since some of them arent accepting them because of their religion i think that the european governments should not think about that first and still accept them because in the end of the day we are all people. We were told to live on this earth in unity and yet we still dont listen to that. Even the pope who worships a different god would still take the refugees in and so shouldnt that be enough for the europeans to get the message that they should accept the refugees too?
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
- They will be missed by many of people for sure. They did not deserve to die in hopes of looking for a better place to live because death is what they were trying to avoid but they still ended up meeting it and it is truly unfortunate that they had to pass away.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world
problem?
- We can raise awareness about whats happening so that people could get inspired to help them
- Make efforts like giving donations to help the refugees
- Create groups dedicated to helping the victims
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
- I can share articles, videos, etc. showing what the war has done to these poor people and maybe post links that lead to orgs, groups, etc that are dedicated to helping the people.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
- i would promise to help the people in any way i can as a student like raise awareness send donations and try to get people into helping also
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
- I would say that if any other country is asking for help we should also help them because it is just the right thing to do.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
- Help out as much as you can because they really need help because we're all people and we should be helping each other out.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
- Yes i would because it is just right to help others out no matter who they are.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
- Lord i pray for the safety of the victims and refugees who are fleeing syria due to the war. Please help them find a nice and proper home so that they could start living their lives normally again. Amen

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I believe that the people to blame for this crisis are the people fighting in Syria. if these people weren't fighting, then these refugees wouldn't have to leave and wouldn't have to put themselves at risk for freedom and peace.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
If these European governments won't welcome these refugees then they should at least do something to help them. They may not need to allow them to pass their borders, but they should at least do something to aid them.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I am grieved by the news that Aylan, his mother, brother, and many others are dying in the search for freedom and peace. Freedom is something that every human being has a right to and deserves and isn't something people should be dying just to have. Their deaths could've been avoided if people respected freedom and could just get along.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
I can research for organizations within our own country that are working to help the people afflicted by this issue. I can donate to these organizations. I can spread awareness of this situation and inform others of actions they can take and organizations working to help these people.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
Through social media, one of the smallest things I can do that can go a very long way is spreading word of the situation in Syria and the Syrian people fleeing their country.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to respect freedom and peace,
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
Although the Philippines is not a European nation, we're considered to be one of the most hospitable nations. I would advice the Aquino administration to extend this hospitality to the people of Syria and give them aid.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I will advice them to give aid to the Syrian people even through the smallest possible actions.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes, I am willing to adopt a child or family from these refugees because I think that my family is also willing to do so. I believe that by doing so I can help and benefit the rest of my society.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Lord, please guide the people of Syria and give them strength so that they may overcome these trials that they are facing. Also, please show the people of Europe that by opening their doors to these refugees of Syria that they are helping to benefit all our societies. Amen.
1. The people who should be blamed for this is the government and the terrorists. They are responsible for the torture and suffering these people are facing, when they haven't done anything wrong.
ReplyDelete2. They must think about the others, and not just themselves. Most of these people are suffering, and all they can think about is what benefit themselves.
3. They are three of the many people who suffer. This is just an example of how selfishness and the awful effects of these actions.
4. We should start donating, contributing to their safety, and maybe start adopting the children who are in need.
5. We should start promoting them by sharing projects about helping these people.
6. Start supporting the projects regarding the safety of the people.
7. Start allowing the donations of the country to reach people from Syria.
8. They should start thinking about the right things and do the right decisions in order to lessen the suffering and pain from these people.
9. Yes, because we need to start helping those from other countries, even though we don't have direct relationships with them.
10. Almighty Lord, please help those who are suffering in Syria in any way you can. Please allow them to have the experience of living a real life, without the distruction of their homes happening. Thank you.
ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I think we should blame the ISIS because they don't want to give freedom and peace to the syrian people.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I would tell them that welcoming refugees will be a good thing because they are also people and they deserve to have shelter.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
The three are very innocent people and they never deserved this. I am very sad to know that they died.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- raise awareness on this problem
- Donate and support organizations

7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
I'll advice them to take care of the OFW and to never let such thing happen to them.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees? I will tell them to be safe and pray to the Lord because The Lord always has the answers. I will also tell them to help the refugees.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
If I need to, then yes because these kids deserve to be treated like normal people and they deserve to feel loved.

Lord, please help the refugees that are suffering right now. Please give them strength and please let them know that everything is going to be ok and I hope that they feel the love that they deserve. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I believe that the government and ISIS are at fault for this, the war on religion not only affects the citizens but the nation's well fare as well. Both forces are being unjust and not thinking for the better.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I believe that you should start being more open, that you should start caring about what goes on in the other countries, your country is not the center of the universe, open your mind and care more about the betterment of the world.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?

10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Heavenly Father,
We humbly ask for your guidance for the Syrian Refugees, so that they may be able to lead safe and happy lives, away from the war and turmoil. So that they can live on. Lord please let them know that their fight isn't for nothing, that they are inspiring change, that they can and will overcome.
Amen
1. The government and the terrorists are the people who should be blamed because they are the main reason this war started.
ReplyDelete2. Take heart and show compassion. Put yourself in their shoes, wouldn't you want to escape and take refuge from a place full of war and danger?
3. It saddens me that they weren't able to experience the freedom they were longing for.
4.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I believe that the Syrian government (specifically their president, Bashar Al-Asshad) terrorist groups like ISIS, and CLIMATE CHANGE are to blame for this crisis. Firstly, Al-Asshad has been ignoring the pleas and issues of of the Syrian people when they went through an environmental crisis -- which caused rebellion and the forming of terrorist groups like ISIS. The extremist beliefs of groups like this have caused the civil war and the terrible refugee crisis they are going through.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
Put yourself in their shoes: Be open to those who are in need, because you never know what they would do if the situation were reversed. You should not ignore the needs of other countries just because your country is richer.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I think that their deaths are terribly saddening, but it is good that it has sparked global attention, which is long overdue. This has been happening since 2011 and it is about time that we are aware of this. It hurts my heart to see that it takes four years to let the entire world know about this crisis.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?

- Find a way to directly help them, such as donating for relief services

I pledge to spread awareness on this issue and to include the refugees in my prayers.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
I'd advise him to let more competent government officials handle this problem.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I would tell them to be more concerned about this issue since it is happening in their country.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
I am willing to help them in any way I can. However, I would only adopt a kid if I were financially comfortable. If not, I'd gladly still help in other indirect ways.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Heavenly Father,
I know that you are their guiding light in their devastating storm of darkness and pain. My faith in You remains strong, and I pray that you would never leave them. Please give them strength and courage to withstand this calamity, as we, concerned Christians around the world, include them in our prayers as well.
Thank you Lord. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I think that the government should be blamed because I can see how they lack compassion and guidance for their people. They should be really be hands on and they should take action in what is happening there. They should help as much people as they can.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
They are people too. Other European governments should help and serve as role models to Syria in order for them to realize that the problem is not getting any smaller. They should take matters into their own hands as well to help the refugees and to give them a better chance at life.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
This is an eye opener for a lot of people. It makes us realize that death and suffering chooses no one when in war. This will give people the encouragement and compassion to help our fellow people.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
Be compassionate towards others
Set a good example for other people to follow
Learn how to be generous and share

7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
I suggest that we should be open for help. We should accept Syrian refugees,
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
If I had relatives in Europe, I would tell them to decide wisely and be helpful to others no matter how much or how little you have.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
I am willing to adopt syrian refugees because I want them to see a life with no war and suffering. I want to help them get back on their feet again.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Lord, I pray that you continue to guide the refugees and keep them protected during thus difficult time. I pray, amidst the war, that you give people the compassion to care for others and to speak your word. I pray that you give them hope and keep them hanging on to you. I pray that you open the eyes of the government and make them see all the suffering that the people are experiencing. Make their hearts pure and take away all the pain that they are experiencing. In Jesus' mighty name, Amen.
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDeleteI personally believe that the Syrian government itself, specifically its leader, Bashar Al-Asshad, as well as terrorist groups such as ISIS should be blamed for the lack of peace amongst the Syrian people. President Al-Asshad constantly ignores the issues of of the Syrian people especially during times of crisis. In addition to this, his authoritarian rule restricts the freedom of the people. This is the main cause of rebellion amongst the people of Syria, and the formation of terrorist groups such as ISIS.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
The advice that I would give to the European governments is to openly welcome the refugees from the war-torn countries. Although their main concern is that presence of the refugees may influence the culture and beliefs of their own countries, they must also take into consideration the lives of the refugees as well as the amount of suffering they have already gone through. Just as the Pope had said, the Gospel “calls us to be close to the smallest and to those who have been abandoned.” Thus, it is best for them to do what is morally correct in the eyes of the Lord.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
The deaths of Aylan, his mother, and brother genuinely affected me. This is because the two boys met their deaths before being able to grow up, learn new things, and go through new experiences. They could have had a bright future ahead of them, which the parents could have willingly supported.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- Spread awareness on social media in order to urge others to take action and help the suffering refugees
- Support organizations that share the same cause through donations in the form of clothes, money, food, etc.
- Promote empathy; allow others to realize that the true cause of these problems is lack of concern, respect and care for one another
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
Through social media, I can create an event or business wherein all proceeds are directly sent to the the refugees. With this, I am not only able to spread awareness about the rising issue, but am also able to support the Syrian people who are in need.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
ReplyDeleteI pledge to give as much support as I can to the Syrian refugees by associating myself with organizations that are aimed towards giving aid to them. I will do this by donating what I can, giving all my efforts, and sharing all my ideas in order to contribute to alleviating the pains of the refugees.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
The advice that I would offer to the Aquino administration is to also open our doors to welcoming the refugees. Because they are leaving a life of chaos, we must be good Christians and help them go through this process. However, because the Philippines is not strategically located near Syria, the government can provide enough means of transportation in order to relocate the refugees. Once they arrive, the Aquino administration should provide shelter that will allow them to feel the comfort and peace that they have been longing for.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
If I have relatives in Europe, I would advice them to encourage their local government to open their arms to the refugees. Although this may not seem like the easiest choice, it is the best. I would also ask them to do simple acts such as spreading awareness of the ongoing conflict on social media, in order to open the minds of those in Europe and allow them to see the need to break the barriers against the refugees.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
If I were given the chance, I would willingly adopt a kid or a family from the refugees in Syria. This is because I believe that they are truly in need and that they do not deserve the life that they are currently living. To do this would not be a burden, but an absolute privilege.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear Lord,
For all the refugees such as Aylan who have met their deaths in search for a brighter future, may You let them rest in peace and grant them the serenity that they have longed for in their lives. For those who are still trying and fighting to survive, may they be able to finally obtain a safe place, away from the chaos that they have escaped from. Please continue to guide them and keep them safe as they journey towards their refuge. Allow more people to open their arms to them, accept who they truly are, and create harmonious relationships with them as they live with them while the war is ongoing.
Amen

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
> Based on my opinion, the government is supposed to be held responsible for this crisis and lack of freedom. The task of the government is to be able to guide the people to the path of advancement and prosperity, yet, the opposite is occurring.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
> I understand the other European governments who are not welcoming these refugees who come from war-torn countries since they do not want to get involved. Yet, they should also understand that if this situation were to happen to them, they would want other countries to help and accept them to safety.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
> The news of these deaths are very devastating since these people only strive for a life full of peace and safety, a life we all deserve. This war has brought nothing but death and cruelty to the world and it must end to be able to let the people of Syria live the life they deserve.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?

10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear God,
You are the mightiest of all, You are our Salvation. Please forgive the people of Syria for all the wrongs they have done and please guide them to be able to reach the life they are striving for. Guide them to keep having faith in you that you have not left them because through this, through the faith they have in You, they will get past this. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In my opinion, I feel that the government is there to blame since its own state is left in a state of peril and danger in the midst of escaping the country. Although, not all of the blame should be put completely on them. The terror groups fighting on Syrian grounds is also there to blame as they promote negotiations and agreements through the use of violence. If these 2 culprits were to learn to get along well, then the whole crisis would most probably not lead into something similar to the events transpiring at the moment.
2. I feel that the best advice to give them is to simply learn to open their doors to those who are needy. For these refugees who are struggling to escape the grasp of Syria, neighboring countries should learn to be more sensitive to the crisis arising in that country and possibly be lenient on their migration legislations for the time being so as to simply provide a safe haven for these Syrians to retreat to.
3. I felt angered as to how insensitive Syria and terror groups involved are as to how they don't pay much mind to the lives endangered due to their actions. Aylan and his family save for their father was not able to live a life which many individuals their age learn to enjoy and cherish, and for this it truly saddens me and strikes me with grief to see these poor souls taken away.
4.
-Spread awareness and advocate an action as to stop future crises similar to this from happening
-Support organizations who are also advocating such movement
-Start the change in myself so as to become a good change for society
5. Social media serves as a powerful tool in spreading the news and advocating the movement to help these victims of destruction in finding a peaceful and better life.
6. I PLEDGE to become more compassionate and sensitive towards the needs of others and be able to be the one to offer service to the marginalized.
7. I would advice his administrations to be open to change and be open to the service of others, most especially to the marginalized sectors of society.
8. I would tell them to be ready in giving valuable necessities and be kind as to give alms when the time come where refugees are starting to pile up on the European region.
9. Yes. I believe that these people deserve just as good of a life as we do, and I can advocate this message by starting small, such as adopting a family or individual.
10.
Heavenly Father,
I thank you for giving me the safety of my homes and the security of your guidance with us. I pray for these poor, pitiful souls who are suffering in the midst of crises and fights, may you give them a home to stay and that they may be under your care always and forever. I pray that the souls of the dead who have struggled to reach a livable life may reach your love and care and that they may rest in peace. AMEN.

ReplyDelete1. The root cause of the lack of freedom and peace experienced in Syria is all because of the repulsive acts of ISIS. These sickening members of the group are nothing but a disgrace to this society due to the immorality living in the depths of their souls. In addition, the formation of this group would not have happened if the Syrian government paid full attention to the catastrophes that their nation would face.
2. I would simply advice the government and the rest of the citizens residing in Europe to go deep into their faith and rehabilitate the morality hiding in the corners of their heart. At the same time, they should learn the essence of service due to the fact that the world does not only revolve around them, thus explaining why we should care about our fellow people, whether local or international. Social statuses should be set aside in order for the whole community to unite as one towards a war-free country.
3. Once my eyes have seen the disheartening efforts that Aylan and the rest of the other citizens who have passed away, it has left me appaulled and agitated. I truly do believe that they did not deserve to go through such hardships due to the fact that so much of these refugees are very young and had a bright future ahead of them, and they should have been given proper freedom and justice.

• Give great attention to those in need by simply donating goods and other services to them and/or seeking help from others through either word of mouth or social media.
• Practice freedom and justice around the environment in order for other fellow citizens to realise its importance, thus leading them to be influenced to do the same.
• Promote peace in the community through unity, humility and kindness due to the fact that all good deeds come from the influence of peace and other among the people.
5. Through social media, I may be able to create support groups and organizations that may spread the awareness on the issue of these Syrian refugees. In addition to that, I would create an innovative business or online fundraiser, wherein all proceeds will be forwarded and donated to the affected victims.
6. I pledge to continuously spread the issue regarding the Syrian refugees in order to keep others aware, and to obtain help from these citizens in order to save the lives of these refugees.
Delete7. These refugees do indeed need the help of other countries, and I believe that it would be offending our country's administration would not contribute anything. Thus, I certainly believe that the Aquino administration should extend their efforts in giving out as much as they can in order to save the lives of the affected Syrian citizens.
8. Since it is more accessible in their area, I would advice my relatives in Europe to help the affected refugees through donating goods to them in order to satisfy their needs. Additionally, I would also advice them to continuously spread awareness regarding these refugees because other Europeans should give more attention to this issue due to the fact that a capable nation like Europe needs to offer as much help as they can give to these poor refugees.
9. No; it may be a very kind act to adopt a kid or a family, but it is also a huge responsibility to take care of these people. Other than that, I surely am willing to help through other various good acts such as donating goods and participating in active organizations that may support the resolution of this problem.
10. Lord Almighty Father, I truly adore and praise You for all the amazing things You have done for me and my fellow Christians. Please do forgive the immoral acts of the sinful people residing in Syria. Help them regain their faith in themselves in order to put an end to the crisis that their country is facing. I pray that the refugees who have passed away due to the catastrophe are now safe in Your arms, and that they are safe and sound, away from the menace in this world. Please continue to guide the struggling refugees — help them as they fight for their justice as Syrian citizens and that they would be able to live a meaningful life once again. I pray that through Your amazing powers, the world would experience less war, and that everyone would gather as one faithful unit. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
> I think that ISIS is to be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace since theyre the
ones who are acting irresponsibly. They may have misunderstandings with Syria but there
are other peaceful means of dealing with the problem, no need to kill or harm people.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
> "How would you feel if you were a refugee and other people didnt want to let you enter their
country? You should treat others the way you want to be treated."
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
> Its really sad that Aylan and his brother were taken away by the terrorists too early from their
parents. They don't have the right to take anyones life since they were not the ones who
gave it to them.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
> 1) Donate to those in need in Syria
2) Pray for the victims and for the families who has lost members of their family
3) Spread awareness about this problem about Syria.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?

> I pledge to spread awareness about this crisis and continue praying for the families
who lost their loved ones
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
> We should help our fellow human beings. Oh and just because this problem isn't
happening in our country doesn't mean we shouldn't do anything about it, we
should still help them out.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
> Please help those who are in need and keep donating. They could also tell nearby
places from Syria to welcome the refugees so they'll be safe from ISIS.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
> No because it would be hard to adjust with another child and it would be too big
of a responsibility. Although i can tell the orphanages about it so they could
adopt the kids.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
> Dear Lord, we adore you because you are the creator of all things good in the
world. We adore you because you are understanding and forgiving. Sorry for all the
wrong doings of the terrorists to the people in Syria. Thank you for guiding us and
for all the blessings you have given everyone. Please continue to guide and bless
us and please take care of the people in Syria.

ReplyDelete1. In my opinion, the right people to blame for this crisis is the Syrian government. It is their fault for not taking proper action especially when the crisis started on March 15, 2011-present. It is also the fault of the rebel group ISIS for attacking without having a proper talk to settle the problems of both parties. I think both parties must be considerate when settling the crisis.
2. I advise them to welcome the refugees from war-torn countries. Helping others won’t hurt at all, in fact, it’s the moral thing to do. These refugees are seeking help and acceptance from someone and if you were in their position, it wouldn’t be pleasing at all.
“Love your neighbor as you love yourself” - Mark 12:31
3. I am saddened by the truth of this. I am also saddened by the fact that this has happened a lot of times, Aylan isn’t the only one. This crisis is not only affecting the environment and peace in the community but also the innocent lives living in the community.
4. As a Lasallian student, the first thing I will do is pray for the lives of the deceased because of this crisis. Next, I would do my part in spreading peace in the community I am living in right now – I will avoid all means of arguments and I will be considerate to everyone. I will continue being concerned for the marginalized by taking part in several outreaches and reaching out to them. I am just a student, but my starting small actions, I can create a big difference.
5. I can utilitize social media by sharing posts with my comments about the crisis, and by encouraging others to share it, it may reach to a person who can actually make a difference and do something about it.
6. “God will not give you anything you can’t handle.” – this promise comforts me because God has a plan for all of us whether we like it or not. God will not give anything the refugees cannot handle; so they must keep their head up and pray.
7. Although it is dangerous to interfere with Syria’s state at the moment, I think we must fix our crisis with the ISIS and Bangsamorro in our country. No physical arguments must be made – there must be a proper meeting where they discuss the crisis thoroughly. We must consider what they want and they must consider our wants.
8. I advise them to help the refugees if they can. It is important to reach out to our brothers and sisters, no matter how different they may appear. We are all equal in the eyes of Jesus, therefore we must reach out.
9. Yes, because with that, I would be helping someone live properly. Helping people is and will always be my passion. I believe that everyone is equal and no matter who they are, all of them deserve equal amount of help and guidance. God has called each of us to a mission and I believe that my mission is to help and assist others.
10. Lord, I thank you for the blessings you have given me and my family. I pray that the refugees will find peace and contentment in their lives once again. I know that I am not experiencing what they are going through but I pray that they may overcome it because I know that you wouldn’t give them anything they cannot handle. I pray for the family of Aylan and the rest of the victims whose lives have been taken away due to the crisis. Amen.

ReplyDeleteIt can seen that the blame can be placed on the government of Syria. They were the ones who had suppressed the people which drove them to flee from their home. But this can also be seen as the fault of the people, for pressuring the government to change because of some of the people's disobedience, with innocents caught up in their wrong decisions.
By persuading them of the benefits that can be achieved by taking in refugees. A governments objective is to improve the body of people assigned to them. By merging with the refugees it strengthens our relationship with God; strengthening the resolves of the people to do good which in turns improves the economy.
No one, and I mean no one, deserves for their life to be taken away by the forces of nature. They may have not deserved it, but it also simply means that the time of separation between them and God was shorter than others. Of course this is exceptionally sad for those who had to be parted by their love ones, but I believe that they'll still be able to live on; maybe not normally again, but one where they continue to follow God's path.
The first concrete action is to make it aware on social media of the major crisis that is now happening so that they are aware of the problem and will start thinking of solutions to help them. The second is to spread it through mouth in groups of people, so as to make sure that even those who have no access to the Internet will be aware of what is happening. The last is to offer any and all of my services in helping all those Syria refugees so that they know that there are people out there who care for their well being and will help them improve their situation.
By posting inspiring real stories from the refugees. When they give their stories, everyone on the social media will be able to feel the sadness, the pain, and the anger that all of them are experiencing because of this. We will be able to reach into the hearts of people if we show them the human emotions which swell to a breaking point inside these refugees.
By pledging to not turn a blind eye to these issues around the world. Even if I cannot take action: I pledge to never turn a blind eye to these problems, to never dismiss it as something so small it can be fixed with a snap of the fingers. By acknowledging them, I am giving them my entire support for their happiness and recovery.
Offering the services of some of the Filipinos in our country. Mostly those with experience in medical, rescue and those who can help in organizing plans of improvement. This way, there will be more hands helping with the safety of the refugees. Another thing they can do is to offer money that can be used for the Syrian refugees benefit.
By offering their support to them on their journey for shelter. There are not many willing to offer their homes to strangers in need, but if they can provide so much support like giving food, clothes and money; they are already helping more than enough compared to others who turn their head away from them.
Yes, I would. I am one of the houses which can house a few more people. If it is something that I can offer then I will gladly do. They don't deserve to have that kind of life, they don't deserve to be forced to move out of their home, their own mother country. They don't deserve the kind of attitude given to them by all those who are indifferent, they deserve to be happy and to be respected by everyone.
Lord, we praise and glorify for another day in our lives that you have given us. We thank you for the gifts you have given us, that we are blessed with good lives and good people. We repent for the sins we commit everyday, the sins which go against Your Teachings and hurt you. Please Lord, please help the refugees whose home has been taken away from them. Help the, find happiness once again so as to improve their lives and their families lives. Please guide them in finding a places where they can belong and to help them stay pure of harmful thoughts against those who have driven the, away. In Jesus' name, Amen.

5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?

1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDeleteI believe that the Syrian government should be blamed for the lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people. The role of the government is to manage the order and tranquility in a community, thus they should be the ones to blame when chaos/misunderstandings happen. The Syrian government also imposed the authoritarian rule, and that is what restricted the freedom of the people. ISIS should also be blamed for their lack of care and sympathy for the people of Syria.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
The advice I would give towards the European governments would be to help the refugees from other countries. I would advice them to have a heart and show some empathy from these refugees, for they have suffered a lot and they need our help. By helping them, I believe that we could have a peaceful and healthy relationship with the war-torn countries and that we could possibly put a stop to this war.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
The death of Aylan, his mother, and his brother sincerely saddened me. This is because Aylan and his brother were so young, and they died before they could even start living. The two boys could have had a bright future ahead of them. The death of the mother also saddened me because she could have guided and given support to her two children whilst they were growing up.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
As a Lasallian, three concrete actions/solutions I can do to address this problem are:
Make others aware of this social issue, so that they would be ignited to take action and offer help to all those suffering. I can do this through the use of social media.
Volunteer and donate to organizations that help in supporting this cause and fighting against this social issue.
Being a good example. As a Lasallian, I should make sure to follow the Lasallian Core Values, as especially being Compassionate, Concern for the Marginalized, and Christian. By embodying these values, I can be a good example to others and trigger change in society.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
I can utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these refugees by creating a webpage where people can give donations which will directly be sent to Syria. Social media is very powerful, so I will make sure to share this webpage on ALL types of social media, namely Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. In doing so, I can make others more aware of this issue present in the world today, at the same time I can help those suffering in Syria by the donations collected.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
ReplyDeleteI pledge to do my best in offering help and support to all those suffering in Syria, which I can do by donating and giving my full support to organizations that address this cause, as well as making everyone aware of this issue so that they can also offer their help.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
The advice that I would give to the Aquino administration is to be open to offer help to other countries. This will not only help the refugees, but will also set an example for other countries, so that they may offer their help as well. The Aquino administration can offer help by giving donations, since Syria is too far away. Even with the long distance from Syria to our country, I believe that we will still be able to help, because as said, by initially offering help to Syria, we can inspire and trigger other countries which are nearer to them to help as well.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
Advice I would give to my relatives in Europe is to encourage the people in their country to be welcoming and helpful to the refugees. They can do this in little ways, such as spreading awareness about the issue and by supporting organizations that address this cause.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
If I were given the chance, yes, I am willing to adopt a kid or family from these refugees. These kids/families have suffered and went through a lot, and they greatly need our help. They do not deserve the quality of life they have experienced, and I am prepared to offer them a better, more peaceful way of living.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Heavenly Father,
For the refugees from war-torn countries around the world such as Aylan, who have lost their lives before they could even truly live, I pray that they have found their way in the comfort of Your loving arms. May you give them the care, peace, and safety that they didn’t have. Lord, for those who are still experiencing hardships and struggles, may You please guide them to a safer path and obtain a more peaceful way of life. Lastly, may you guide the European government as well as other countries, that they may open their arms and hearts, and offer help to these refugees. Allow them to be good examples and to do all things through Your light, that they may remain faithful to You and that they may be guided by Your love through the chaos and mishaps occurring in the world at present.
Amen

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
•In my opinion, I think the government should be blamed for this certain crisis because the government should be the ones who should make sure there is peace and order in their own country. Syria may not be a democratic country but it is still the government's job to ensure the protection of the Syrian people.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
•I would advise the government to provide the refugees temporary evacuation centers until they are capable of providing for themselves. Also I would advise them to hold food drives in order to be able to feed these people as well. I believe that they should also ask for donations for the clothing for the refugees as well.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
•In my opinion, they do not deserve a death as tragic as this. They were victims of a war in their country and wished to escape. It is a shame that innocent people lost their lives trying to escape a war that was happening in their country. They should get the justice they deserve.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
•One thing I can do is spread the word through social media. It is a fact that this generation is on social media 24/7. By sharing the crisis online, more people will be aware of the problem or crisis happening in Syria.
•Another thing I can do is spread the word to adults so that they can share this to their friends and their other friends and so on. By doing so, more people will know what crisis is happening in Syria.
•Another thing I can do is to be a good example. By being a good example to people, people would want to be good as well thus lessening the chances of war in the country.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
•By using social media, I can share posts about this crisis and ask those who are on social media to devote even just a little of their time to pray for these lives of the children and even adults.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
•I pledge to continue to pray and ask for prayers for those suffering and have suffered.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
•I will tell them to be open and help these people.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
•I will tell my relatives to help in donating clothes to these refugees and I will ask them to have food drives for these refugees.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
•Yes because like Jesus, we must also attend to the lost and the poor.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.

Please continue to guide and grant the Syrian refugees strength and hope to continue to go on. Please show them that You will never leave them. For those who have already passed, please grant these people the justice they deserve.

1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDeleteBashar al- Assad, because i think that he is the cause of conflict peace proposal being rejected, because his legitimacy was lost in the Syrian peoples eyes. Which led them to wanting him to step aside.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
They should at least have mercy and be sensitive enough that these refugees need their help.

Yes why not. Because they lost their homes, all of their belongings, and if you are there and see u this kid alone that lost its family, why not keep thid kid and help him get back to his family. This is the Godly way as well so we will be in a win win situation.

Amen.
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDeleteI think the government is the one to be blamed because it’s shown how they can’t truly govern their country because of the presence of terrorist groups which are directly harming the peace and lives of innocent Syrian people.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I advise them to rethink their decisions and think about whether it’s the morally right thing to do because these people need a place to escape from war and if anything, Europe is capable enough to shelter these people.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I felt anger towards the European governments because they did not welcome these innocent victims of war-torn countries and essentially turned a blind-eye to them, and also anger towards these terrorist groups because they always fail to see the true effects of their terrorism.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- Start by showing hospitality so that others may know hospitality as well
- Donate food and clothes so that they may be able to live wherever they are
- Support organizations that would try to help these people
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
I can use social media to spread awareness about this problem and inspire a change within at least a few people so that we may do good and help these people.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to spread awareness about this problem and compassion towards the victims of these problems.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
The advice I can give to them is to make them to realize that if we cannot make peace with the rebel groups in our own country, then the same thing may happen to us. Also, I would advise them to be welcoming of any refugees that may arrive here.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I advise them to be safe and that they should be accepting of any refugees that do get to pass through and stay in Europe, because they are victims and should be treated with respect.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes I would because these people deserve a chance to live normal lives that are not filled with the fear and strife that terrorist groups create with their actions.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear God,
You are truly the most powerful. Please bless the lives of those who had died and those who try to escape the harshness of their war-torn country. Please bless them and guide them back to you, O Lord. Thank You Lord for all the blessings you have given us thus far, I hope you continue to shower us with blessings, especially the refugees, so that they too may find happiness as well. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I think the terrorists are to blame for the events that followed after their attacks. They disrupted the peace and solidarity of the community and caused chaos and suffering to the prople. It caused families to lose their absolute freedom to make choices and revoly against them.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I would tell these European governments to realize how blessed they are and count their blessings. God blessed them with safety and guidance and now is their chance to share it with those abandoned and suffering.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I find their deaths so saddening and unfortunate. But, i feel that it opened the eyes and ears of those who are passive and unable to act on these things.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
Firstly, i would pray for the poor souls suffering and going through these tragedies. Secondly, i would raise awareness on this issue by talking about it with my friends and posting about it on social media. Lastly, i will get my parish involved in this by holding prayer services and doantions.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
Lately, social media has been a powerful tool in spreading awareness and opening the hearts of the clueless in order for them to act on these issues. Hashtags are widespread on social media and countless foundations are built upon the awareness of war torn countries.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to be an instrument of God to help the victims and refugees who are suffering in Syria. I will allow God to use me as a steward of His creation and uplift those in need.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
I can tell the Aquino administration to form relations with the Syrian government in order for some families to be taken care of and safe from any danger.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
They should accept these refugees with open arms like brothers and sisters because we are all children of God.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes, because i am so blessed to be safe from harm and blessed to have a family alive and well. I need to help others especially children who have experienced losing their parents just so that may feel loved again.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Lord, thank you for blessing me with safety and guidance. Lord i pray for the victims of the war in Syria. May they stay strong and hopeful for Your grace and love. I pray for the terrorists to realize their wrongdoings and come back to you Lord and repent. Lord, i pray for Aylan who has suffered for the sake of the greedy. May You continue to bless his soul as he makes his way to your kingdom.
In Jesus' name, Amen.

ReplyDelete1. For me I think it's the governments fault because they are the ones who are incontrol of what's happening therefore they should put a stop
To this. Or at least help out on this crisis
2. I would tell the European government to fix this problem. They shouldn't have refugees in their country. The citizens deserve to leave a peaceful life.
3. I think that this news is terrible to hear. I feel that Aylan and his family deserved to live and continue out their lives, they didn't deserve this from a crisis like this. People shouldn't be smuggled through another country or thrown out of their own
4. As a lasallian, I would promote through social media that everyone deserves peace from their country, help spread word about what's current problem our world is facing, and by praying to God and by having faith
5. Social media is one way to promote many things. So, I would using social media I would inform everyone that all citizens and people of their country should get the peace and respect they deserve. No human should have a disrupted life for an account of their race, religion, nationality or political opinion.
6. I would pledge to help out in any possible way for all the refugees, to help address this problem and let everyone be aware of what's happening to help them out
7. I would say that we should start treating all the citizens well in order to prevent this from happening to our country. We should also be aware of what's happening and help try to stop it as a government official
8. I would tell them to be careful of what could possibly happen and to help out all the refugees.
9. Yes I would adopt a kid or family from these refugees because I think that it's unfair that these people don't get the respect they need from their own country. Providing someone a home is the right thing to do. Since they are already suffering persecution.
10. Dear lord, I pray for the soul of Aylan and his family. May you grant their soul eternal peace. Please bless his dad and guide him into knowing that you are always by his side and that his family is always watching him. I also pray for the Refugees that are in need of guidance and homes, Amen.
1. I believe that it is the government's fault since they have all the authority to implement laws and the like which would greatly benefit the nation, but they don't put their feet down against all the wars which are dividing its people, so more and more problems arise in Syria.
ReplyDelete2. I think that they should be more open minded; those people who go to their countries have experienced a lot of hardships and the least that these officials can do is to welcome them with open arms.
3. It's very tragic because there numerous deaths not only caused by war itself, but also by accidents that happen when a family flees from the war-zone. Aylan, his brother, and his mother are just 3 of the countless lives that have been lost due to escaping from battle. Hopefully, these souls will be with Him so they may finally be at peace.
4. Even the smallest of acts would really benefit causes like these, and that is why I would always thank Him for letting my family and I live another day, and while I am talking to our God, I would also pray for the souls of those who have passed because of war. As a Lasallian, I would volunteer to help others, especially the marginalized since they are the ones who really experience trials every day. And, I would also make the most of my own lives and remind others to do the same since we are all blessed to have been born in a country which is not as dangerous compared to the others, and we must take advantage of that.
5. Social media is a great way to bring and receive word of the various issues that are occurring around us, so social media would help raise awareness. Through sites such as Facebook or Twitter, we may be able to inform people of the trials the refugees face and this would then cause other countries' people to encourage their officials to welcome the refugees into their own lands.
6. I pledge to continuously raise awareness of the hardships and struggles that the refugees are facing, so that every one would be informed and therefore be motivated to make a difference and help them.
7. We, as a whole nation, must encourage our own government to always accept these refugees because we Filipinos must know through our own experiences that life is difficult, and they would really be grateful for receiving a helping hand.
8. I would tell my relatives that they should also be considerate, and that they should accept whoever refugee because they must have been through a lot. I'd advice my relatives in Europe to provide for the refugees since, for maybe a few weeks or so, their lives would depend on my relatives, so it would be best if they really help out.
9. Yes, I would take in refugees because they'd have no other place to go. As long as they don't abuse my kindness and depend solely on me, then we'd have a harmonious relationship. God told us to love our neighbor as we love ourselves, and by adopting these refugees, I would be living out God's word.
10.
Almighty God,
Thank you so much for the blessing that is life. We know, Lord, that we often take this gift for granted, so please always remind us that life us precious and must therefore be valued. We also ask, Lord, for you to keep the souls of Aylan, as well as the other souls of your children who have died due to wars or war-related reasons, with You and Your Son in Heaven. They have not lived full lives, Father, and we pray that You grant them eternal life, so that they may experience the real meaning of joy, peace, and salvation. All this we ask in Your name, Lord. Amen.

-I believe that the government (most especially: President Bashar al-Assad) should be blamed, they are the ones who govern the country and are responsible for the safety for their people. The government has made irrational choices with some leading to violent acts, which is wrong as they need to care for their country and through these acts it seems they do not.
2.
-The best advice I would give them would be the realization that wars car tear any country apart and hurt innocent civilians, would they really want this to happen to their citizens? They need to understand that if this happens to them they may need to flee the country also, and would other countries treat them that way if they weren't allowed to flee to their country? It should be equal treatment, they should treat the other countries as they want to be treated.
3.
-It is very saddening given they were only trying to give a better life for their children, the children who haven't seen the best of life but were brought into one of disaster and heartbreaking scenes. No child should ever be put through what they have experienced, the deserved a better life.
4.
-Awareness campaigns
-Relief aid programs
-Supporting organizations that aid the refugees
5.
-Starting campaigns to help others realize that through small ways they can impact these refugees and hopefully better their current situation, small things can go a long way. We must try our best to help them in any way we possibly can.
6.
-Say no to inequality, many refugees trying to escape are not being accepted into other countries due to cultural or religious purposes. This isn't right at all because they deserve to enter a country to escape a life of suffering which no one would want. The un acceptance of these refugees will hurt them even more, as they only want what's best for the children. When we think of them, we must think about their children, children who have not seen the true goodness in this world but only a unclear vision of how the world should be.
7.
-One piece of advice I can give to the Aquino administration is
8.
-Yes I would, as they could help give aid to the refugees who have been through a lot. My relatives would also know how to inform others that they can do something to help, instead of just leaving them to suffer.
9.
-Yes I'd be willing to, they never had a chance to experience a greater life, I'd try my best to help them see the real beauty and help them find a place they can call home. Giving them hope, hospitality and happiness we can help them experience the life they were meant for.
10.
-Lord, please help those victims to live a peaceful eternal life, one where in they could appreciate their lives. The conflict was an injustice as it affected the people who had nothing to do with it, yet they are the ones most affected. Please help others realize that some are blessed to be free and have the life of their own choosing, while others do not have the choice and make the most out of what they have left. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
-In my opinion, the only one to blame is ISIS. Because no matter what the Syrian government does to protect the people and sustain peace, ISIS causes great destruction, and chaos among the people and the country because of their beliefs and the jihad.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
-I'd tell the European governments to do their best to support these refugees by accepting them to their countries and show some sympathy and concern because these refugees have experienced so much pain and suffering.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
-What happened to Aylan, his mother, brother, and many other refugees is very heartbreaking and I believe a change should be made so that misfortunes and incidents like this would be prevented.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
-Spread awareness about the situation.
-Support groups dealing with the problem.
-Donate food and water to the people who were affected by the incident.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
-I can utilize social media in making a difference by spreading articles about the situation in Syria and making a support group/page for the refugees.

7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
-I advice them to do everything the can do to try and fix the problems about the MILF and ISIS present in our country, and to support Syrian programs dealing with helping the civilians.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
-I would tell them to support the refugees because if you put yourself in their place they are going through a very difficult situation and that they should try their best to show support and accept them.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
- If there are no more options, sure, because I am willing to help and I believe that's exactly what Jesus would do given the situation because we are all the same and no one is different in his eyes.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear Lord,
Please let Aylan, his brother and mother to enter your kingdom, no matter what religion they believed in. Let them find you, build them a path that will seek you and praise you almighty father. Fill their new lives with love and compassion and lead them to the light and away from the darkness. Please guide Aylan's father and help him get through this heartbreaking experience, take away his frustration and depression and help him find his purpose in life. Please give assistance to the refugees who are in need of your help because they are experiencing so much pain and suffering. Please find a way for the European countries to help out and show sympathy. Please slowly decrease the chaos Syria is experiencing and put an end to ISIS. Amen
1. ISIS is to be blame for what is happening because they are the reason of the war caused.
ReplyDelete2. I would advice them to help another and to imagine those people they are helping are themselves if they were in that situation.
3. I felt bad because even if people already know what is happening in Syria, they are not trying to help them and rescue them from suffering.
4. One of the things we can do is try and educate people of what is happening in our world. Next is help them in their needs by supporting them in anyway. Lastly, we should ask help from other countries in order to stop this chaos and end the suffering.
5. I can utilize social media by spreading the news about Syria so that others may know of it, and this may gather people to help in supporting their needs.
6. I promise to spread awareness of these events, and support them in any matter.
7. I will advice him to help Syria, even just a little, so that they get back on their feet and lessen their sufferings.
8. I will advice them to ask help from their government in order to save/help Syria in their troubles.
9. Yes because they have experienced enough pain, and so that they may get a better life after their encounter.
10.
Dear God, may you continue to watch over Syria as they experience sufferings due to the war happening there. May you always keep them safe and make sure that there will be no more deaths to happen. Amen
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDelete- I believe that the government should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace, because they are not doing their jobs to ensure their countrymen's safety. They are also Making irrational choices which lead to more suffering.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
- Do not reject them, because they can prove more useful to your country than you may think.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
- I think that their deaths were not in vain because they died in a way that showcased the world the injustice happening in the so called *peaceful* world we know today.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- As a Lasallian, we should reach out to those who are in need and not reject them. We should also be able to willingly spread awareness on the occurring problems to gain support. Lastly we can also unite as one Lasallian Family and raise funds since we are the more privileged ones which is to be used to support those who are leaving the country.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
- Simply making a tweet/video/tribute that showcases the injustice that is shown in the area can change a lot especially since the world we know today is a technological world. Just like the tribute that was shown in class, it was a simple video, but it was able to open our eyes
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
There is no one else to be blamed but ourselves and everyone else residing in the world. We have allowed this to continue. We should have been helping them but we stand here in the comforts of our homes doing nothing. We have all sinned by letting this happen. We must reconcile and further pursue a better world, a better nation, a better people.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I say that they, being people of God, should be treated no differently than their own citizens. We are all equal. What right is given to the government that can make them think they are capable of banning people from having equality. It's their world too.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I believe that it is a tragic waste of life. We are given this gift and yet it has been squandered and ended through simple matters of inequality. We have not treated each other similarly, as brothers, but we have treated them, slaves, and us, masters.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
We should show concern for the marginalized, being a christian, and showing compassion. These core values, if adopted by all would certainly perturb the rest of the world in the situation arising today. The people would be called to answer through calls of needs broadcasted on social media and by giving them methods to donate alms in order for them to have a brighter future.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
We can present to the whole world the injustice occurring in these areas; perhaps their God-given sympathetic emotions would call them to aid the refugees and take them under their wing to give them a land where the sun still shines.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to assist my neighbor in his time of need, to show kindness when it's due, and to be a child of God. Moreover, I pledge to a better world, a better society, and a better people that we may be one and united. So help me God.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
I will propose that the Aquino administration do something about it. They should be able to encourage Filipino OFW's to assist the people there in order to become workers that will improve the quality of life.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I will beg them to assist the refugees or even go so far as to adopt them and treat them as family.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes, because I believe that everyone should be given a chance to be great. We should all have an equal chance at a brighter future. It should not be reserved to the mere lucky citizens of a blessed country. These children are dying, it is morally good to save them by providing them a home.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear Lord, I pray that the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world will find solace in you. May their dreams transfigure to reality and let them see your shining grace. I pray that they will be able to see better days in their years to come and may you protect them from all harm. We ask this in your name. Amen.
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, I believe that society, with all it's norms and standards. Some societies in Europe believe that these people are savage and don't have the right to live. Society would be completely different if we simply just accept each other and treat each other as human beings. It is important to make sure that we help these refugees who want a better life because they don't like their own society. All they wanted was a better one to have a better life.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
Refugees are people too. Imagine being in Africa's or Middle East's shoes, where it's a struggle to live and survive. It isn't exactly a great thing. Imagine being treated badly even though all you wanted is to get to a better place. Would killing or neglecting people do any good for your country? I doubt that they would do anything illegal because all they want is a better life. Eh nearly lost everything and you're still assuming that they'll go to your country and change? There's such thing as culture shock, but we all just chose to cope with it since it is a normal thing nowadays. All I'm asking is to consider what these refugees went through. It's like going through hell and later on arriving to heaven, where they're finally safe.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
It's unfair. Life is unfair. These people are just striving to get a better life meanwhile other people want to end their own lives. These people have hope and still believes for the better. They have a reason to live and push through all the hardships each passing they. Wherever they are, may God bless them and grant them a safe journey wherever they may be.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
Help the less fortunate, volunteer, let people know about this through means of different kinds of accessible media.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
I could tweet about it or share a post in facebook. Social media is a very powerful tool because of it's accessibility and the fact that majority of the youth uses it. The more they know, the better.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I promise to help these people so that they may have a better life and someday have the life they truly deserve.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
Follow the steps of the Vatican. But, in a government point of view. Open different government infrastructures to house these people and use taxes to fund their needs.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
Take them in your home because if you were in the same position as they are, they will be welcoming you with open arms.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes but to a certain extent only. I would provide for them until they are well off then turn them over to whatever organization is concerned. The important thing is, I was able to help them and make them feel better.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear God,
You truly are forgiving and merciful. Please give these refugees shelter from the dangers of life. Please protect them from any danger. Give them strength to continue to fight for a chance at a better life.
All these we ask, Amen.

The Government, Because this shows their lack of support for the Syrian People
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
Of course i would ask them to evaluate the refugees that enter the country first, for the safety of their country but these refugees still need a place to go so all other countries should welcome them.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
It's sad, because people shouldn't have to go this far just so they would be safe from war, to be able to live a safe life.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- Share in social media to remind people the happenings in the country
-
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
- Making/Signing online petitions for the Government to help them
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
-I pledge to help out anyone that is in need, to comfort anyone who is sad. So that they may be happy and feel free. Whether it would be small and big, everyone deserves the feeling of happiness and freedom
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
- They should be able to at least be able to answer questions retarding this, can be fixed by just allowing all types of people to enter the country, within reason of course.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
- If they were to come to a situation where they would meet a refugee in real life, i would tell them to not treat them badly and understand their situation and hopefully help them out.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
- I wouldn't because i don't think i am capable, but i will try my best to make sure that these kids will have a safe family to go to
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
-Dear God, please help these misfortunate children stranded in war torn countries. May you help them find peace whether it would be in their own country or in whatever country they plan to go to. May you guide them to live a safe and hopefully a happy life and help them be Free. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
We are the only ones to blame for our actions. Our emotions take control of us and we make stupid decisions based on our beliefs. Others, such as the government, also neglect the people they are supposed to govern, so they are to blame just as much as we are.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
They should put themselves in the refugees' place and think about their actions. They should be treated equally just like their own citizens.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I believe that their lives went to waste,. The people who killed them should be ashamed. We should be treating everyone equally, regardless of any differing factor between them.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
We should address this problem with the Lasallian Core Values of Caring for the Marginalized and Compassion, so that we may care for them when they are at their worst. We can also teach people the consequences of this world problem that is affecting some countries. We should also promote the concept of unity and duty so that people will rally together and become united as one against the evil people, so that we may change our destiny.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
We can share to the world all of the wrongdoings that are occurring to these people so that people will feel sympathy and want to help them out and make their lives better.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to help anyone in need, to try my best to make the people's lives a better place and to denounce any immoral actions people will do. I pledge this so that our world will change for the better.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
I advise to our government to allow refugees to take asylum in our country until the war is over. I would also advise Aquino to let them work in our country during the war if they wish to earn income.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I would tell them to sympathize with the refugees and try to help them in any way possible.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
I would adopt them because I want them to have a better life. They deserve better than this. They need education, not death.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Lord, I pray that Aylan and anyone else similarly affected will live in Your glory. Let their dreams become reality in your realm and let them worship you gracefully. For those who have not become casualties, help them so that they may still have a bright future to look forward to. I ask of this in Your name, Amen.

ReplyDelete1. We are to blame for which us people started said conflict.
2. Everyone is made through the eyes of God, so everyone should be treated with equal respect and equality with others.
3. I believe they deserved better than a life like this. Thinking that the children only experienced a short part of their lives, and through their lives only lived in war and pain, saddens me.
4. Show compassion, being a christian, and having right morals.
5. Tweeting about the crisis to show awareness.
6. I pledge to help spread awareness about this news so other people can also show what they feel and try to help the issue.
7. I suggest that the Aquino administration should provide help to these people through showing them compassion and taking them in.
8. Tell them to provide them some hospitality, let them stay in their(relatives) homes.
9. Yes, but through which I could only provide what I can for them for which I do not have the skill to earn yet as I am not of age to work a full job that can help me, my family, and the child.
10. Dear Lord,
I pray that the refugees from around the world are released and given freedom for they do not deserve their fate and are given rights to live. We ask this in your name, Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In my opinion, I think the Syrian government should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among their people because it's where it originated.
2. The advice I can give them is to take in those refugees, because if those people in European countries were in the refugees' place, they would want the same.
3. I'm really sad about those who've died before reaching Europe because they never got a chance to see a new life; they went out in search of a new life just to die trying.
4. I can raise awareness, join campaigns, donate and if needed, take in refugees should they reach the Philippines.
5. Spreading awareness, donating, and giving out signal boosts through social media would help lives of those Syrian people who are in need.
6. I pledge to post/tweet things that would be beneficial to the refugees; I would not post/tweet anything degrading, dehumanizing, and disrespectful because they need all the help they can get.
7. Make sure everyone knows about this, make sure they are willing to take part in helping, and to donate since they need our resources more than we do.
8. Take in those you could—they need as much help as they could get.
9. Yes, because we still have some space to share and it wouldn't hurt to make someone's life a little better.
10. Lord, I pray for Aylan and all the refugees in this world, that You may protect them and guide through this difficult time. Please give them shelter and care, keep them in Your love, and strengthen their faith as they need it. I pray for the others in the world, that they may give all they could to help these people, to help those of who are suffering. Let us remember that You always have a plan for us, Lord, and that this is something part of a greater plan, greater than anything that we could ever plan or imagine. I hope and pray that for now, we do whatever is in our power. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. The war dogs, whose who brought the war to them.
2. Think of the time of discovery, when Europe was leading in discovery. Would you have appreciated it when you were driven off of land when you needed help? When you were starving at sea?
3. I am disgusted.
4. Stop people from being desensitized from disgusting acts like this
5. By properly monitoring what is to be shown, taking care of what may negatively influence people
6. I pledge that I will not repost, reblog, and/or post triggering content. And if on the event that I do, I promise I will take it down.
7. Start monitoring and tracking the people's use of internet.
8. Supporting other countries will show that even if laws dictate against an act, kindness and compassion still exist within the hearts of the people. Also sending donations to projects and programs that aid the people will help too.
9. I would. I would fight my mum to keep a child, even with a language barrier, I would want to help that child live safely. Even if it is in the Philippines.
10. All I ask from the Lord is that these people will find love and compassion for these poor refugees. Even if it was humans who had driven them out, I want more to show that it's also humans who bring them in safely. Please do not give those monsters the satisfaction of causing misery among others.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
— In my opinion. I think that it was the leaders fault. If the leaders of Europe were to help them out, then they wouldn't have to make them suffer a long trip going to their lands illegally. For the Syrian leaders, they didn't try to initiate peace and unity in the war-torn country.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
— They should understand what these people are going through and at least have pity for them. They may feel indifferent but they should remember that they are humans too and deserve to live.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
— I think it was quite courageous of them to try to get to Europe. It might have been a long trip, but it would have been worth it in the end. If Aylan, his brother and mother would have survived they would have lived a new life alongside the father.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
— To get others to know the current situation, to tell them not to be disgusted and find a way to help out, and to try address it to world leaders
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
— I would share the story on my social media accounts (Twitter, Facebook) and maybe find a site where people are trying to help out and link that too.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
— I pledge to not post/repost any offending posts created by others to show my respect and pity for the refugees, unless it is a call to help type of post.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
— They should understand how these people are going through, even if it isn't the Filipinos in trouble they should try and help out.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
— I would just tell them about the current situation that is happening to the refugees. Maybe they might already know about it but I would tell them they can help out these people out.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
— I actually would have adopt a child because the children don't deserve to be living a life in fear. It might be a risk for my family, but it's better for those children to live life happily then to be sheltered and afraid.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
– Dear God, please bless all of the refugees in the world. Let them be guided into a brighter future, a new hope, so that they may believe in a new beginning. As Aylan's story is an example of the horrible happenings that the refugees are over going with, bless his soul so that he'll finally be at peace. Amen.
Danielle Erika Yazon Valera JG
ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
- We, who are living in this world are to blame for our actions because we make stupid decisions that affect the freedom and peace amongst the Syrian people. The government is also one to blame because they often do not do their jobs well and affects the Syrian people.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
- They should collect their thoughts and put theirselves in the refugees shoes because maybe then they will realize what they're going through. Also, they should treat them equally as their own citizens.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
- They did not deserve to die like that because they were not doing anything to harm anyone, they just wanted to go to Europe to start a new life. Yet unfortunately, something bad occurred and they had their lives taken away.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- We should address this problem by being concerned for the marginalized because the government may not have funds to care for each and every person in need. Therefore, as Lasallians we should give them a helping hand and be more aware of these problem and help them in every way that we could.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
- We can promote that this problem is affecting the poor, innocent people that are living in this world by posting pictures, articles and etc so that this problem may spread throughout the other parts of the world and so that many others are aware by letting this continue may affect humanity and have compassion to help.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
- I pledge to help everyone in need. To take action into making this world a better place to live in.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
-I would advise to our government to let the refugees work in our country until the war is over, let them reside in our country for the meantime as well.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
- I would tell them to help the refugees in every way possible.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
- Yes, most definitely. Because I am willing to let them stay in the comfort of my abode until the war is over or they may stay for as long as they want. I just want them to have a better life because no one in the world deserves to experience such tragedy.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
- Dear Father, I pray that Aylan and others who are in a similar situation will live in your kingdom. Some may not have not fulfilled their duties but they still do deserve a better future. For those who have not been casualties, let them rest in your kingdom, Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I personally feel that the politicians of Syria are at fault in this situation because the people in power, who are supposed to keep the entire nation's wellbeing in mind, are selfish and make irrational decisions. They do not think of the countrymen, only themselves. I think that the rebels (ISIS) are also at fault because they are not trying to find a peaceful way to get what they want. They've killed thousands of innocent people for a "religious" cause.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
If you were in the same position as the Syrian refugees, how would you feel if your neighboring countries didn't want to help you? At the end of the day, we must turn to the golden rule: Do not do unto others what you do not want others to do unto you.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
Aylan and his family truly didn't deserve it, but I am thankful that they have awakened the eyes of the world. They only wanted to have a peaceful life but the selfishness of others took the chance away from them.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
As a Lasallian, I can spread awareness of what's happening in Syria, I can show compassion to everyone (especially those less fortunate I see on the streets), and I can remember the golden rule always.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
By speaking out about what's happening today and educating people on what really happened in Syria, I can make my own little difference.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to raise awareness to the suffering of those in Syria and to help others understand the pain of these refugees.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
I can tell them to offer some homes and livelihood for some refugees.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
If you cannot offer your homes, offer food, clothing, and most of all, love. ❤️
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
If given a chance, I would, although I don't work yet and I'm too young.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Almighty Father,
You are most powerful. You are the beginning and end; the Alpha and Omega. You are the source of all good. Lord, we are sorry for the times we've been selfish—the times we've walked past a less fortunate neighbor and not offered help, and the times we've done actions without considering the feelings of others. We are thankful for all the blessings You have given us. Thank You for giving us the gift of compassion and love. Please guide us, Oh Lord, through the times we forget to show and spread these gifts to others.
Amen.
1. I think we should blame their Government since they didn't really take action and they were very poor in terms of initiating peace among its citizens.
ReplyDelete2. They should start welcoming the refugees since that is what we're supposed to do as children of God.
3. I feel really sad because all they wanted was to reach freedom and they were killed in doing that.
4. As lasallians, we should pray for their safety, volunteer and help the charities and organization in helping them, and stand up against the wrong doings.
5.I would be posting videos and pictures on what's really happening in these areas and make people realize that there is not much action being done to stop this.
6. I pledge to do whatever I can to help these people.
7. I think president Aquino should welcome refugees and send soldiers to Syria to help in defending their country.
8. I would tell them to accept the refugees because that's what Jesus would want us to do.
9. Yes, it may be a burden to a family but it will be definitely worth it since we are helping others in times of need.
10. Dear God, please help all those who are affected by the war in Syria and always keep them safe in times of danger. Please do not leave the, and always give the, hope. Amen
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion We should blame the terrorists of syria for their peoples lack of freedom because the reason they dont allow illegal settlers to just enter other countries is due to the fear of terrorism
I would advise a long term interview so that they can get a better idea on who can or cannot enter the country
I felt very much pity because they had a long and peaceful life ahead of them if they were able to successfully immigrate but then again illegal settling is still frowned upon
I can suggest an end to terrorism which is almost impossible but i think is the only way to develop trust withing our world
I can ask others to share/spread the word of the sad and unfair life that the kids in syria have. So that we can spread the pity easily.
I pledge to go against terrorism and never support any of their groups no matter how good their intentions in this world are.
I will say that we need an organisation that will be funded by taxes which will aid the USA in elimination of terrorists
I will tell them to just simply talk about it because having a direct impact on this issue can maybe get them into trouble
I cant because my family already has enough expenses and personally i dont think that adopting a child from their loving father would be very great

1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
> I think that it is the government's fault because we always blame the government for any bad thing that happens to our country. The government should be the one to help their citizen in their country and in this issue they did not do it.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?

> This issue made me sad because of the fact that people are fighting each other and this causes chaos among everyone to even those who aren't part of the fight. The people who get affected but aren't part of the fight are these refugees who strive to live a new life because their country turned into a warzone.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
• I blame the ones who have started this war, I think the terrorist group ISIS. If they hadn't started this, it would have been more peaceful, less people would have died.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
• If you don't want to accept them in your territories, then you should at least be able to donate funds for them to use in order to start their lives over.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
• This should be a signal for us, the world, to stop this war before more lives are lost. This was a tragedy, a tragedy that should have never happened, a tragedy that should never happen again.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
• Since I am only a student, I would of course first notify others of this situation so that they can help. I would also help by donating money or other things they need.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
• Social media is very influential to the public but is also a quick and efficient way to spread news. Using this, it would be easier to spread the word about these refugees and advertise help for them.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
• I pledge to do what I can for these refugees, and ask help for others to fill in my shortcomings.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
• Try to find settlements the refugees can stay in for awhile along with some free tokens such as food and water.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
• I would tell them to try to help the refugees that come to them for aid.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
• I would, because I don't want to see children suffering at such young ages, I want to see smiles on their faces, I don't want them to have such traumatic memories.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
• Dear Heavenly Father, these children of yours are still too young to see such suffering. Please give them guidance and watch over them so that they may be able to stay safe and happy, Amen.
1. In my opinion, I believe that the Syrian government is responsible for the situation regarding freedom and peace among their very own people due to the fact that it is their origin.
ReplyDelete2. My personal advice to them would be to accept responsibility and take these refugees in.
3. After hearing about the story of Aylan and his family, it saddens me thinking that this issue is common an to think that these children all died too young for they will be the future rulers of the world.
4. As a Lasallian, I will be able to address this issue by raising awareness through campaigns, donate needed necessities, and accept refugees (should they enter the PH).
5. Social media is very useful in terms of spreading news. So to be able to utilise this quality, I would spread awareness and give out signal boosts in order to spread the word about this issue.
6. “I pledge to spread awareness and not post anything negative or degrading towards the Syrian Refugees.”
7. My advice would be to make sure this is being talked about and everyone is well aware of this issue in order to increase awareness and acts of help.
8. I would tell my relatives to have courage and be kind because one simple act of kindness or help can go a really long way.
9. Yes, because as Christians we must help our neighbours and love them as much as we love ourselves regardless of religion, race, or sex.
10. Almighty Father, I pray that Aylan’s story will be an eye-opener to the world regarding the issue of refugees. I hope that this will be able to show to the whole world that this has been going on for a while already and it’s only getting worse. I also pray that you will be able to guide all those refugees who are going through a rough time. May they feel your presence throughout their journey of freedom. Amen.
1. In my opinion, it's the Syrian's themselves, they should be held responsible for their own actions, and sadly, there are some that just don't know how to. The lack of peace and freedom among its people is their own fault.
ReplyDelete2. Think about what you're doing, just think about the people and the lives you're shunning. Only thing I can say is, how would you feel if you were in their shoes? You wouldn't like it, I'm sure.
3. I find it very sad, how in the attempt to escape the potential death their own country had to offer, they died doing so.
4. To practice peace and the fair treatment among others. To pray for those who are struggling to stay alive, and for those who are fighting for theirs. To reach out and aid the escaped refugees, so that they may continue to live normal lives.
5. By spreading the word of their situation, in hopes that it will reach someone who can act upon it. Also asking for the prayers these people need.
6. I pledge to give to those who are needing the most, whenever I have the chance to.
7. To donate to the refugees, in hopes of their rehabilitation.
8. To donate to the refugees, to pray and make an effort to reach out to them and the government about it.
9. Yes, although not for long, I'd be willing to take care of them, as they too deserve the love and the blessings we receive, we just cannot support them for long.
10. Holy father, all I ask is that you bless the souls of the fallen, and the ones who are holding on to their dear lives, that they may find safety in you and your kingdom, and that they may live through these struggles, in order to live normal lives, in your name, amen.
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDelete- In my opinion, I say that the government is at fault for not helping out these people. They should already know, which is right and wrong.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
-I would tell them that, what they are doing is morally wrong. They should care for their own people. They should know the consequences of their actions.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
-I was very sad after finding about this since we all have the right to have peace and not death.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
-I can reach out to them through prayer
-Showing awareness and support for these families affected

-Lord, Heavenly father, I come today asking for your time to listen to us. We ask that you open the eyes of the people on this issue.
May the people find the courage and strength to take a stand and stop this incidents from happening. That we can help those affected and the less fortunate
That we strike change among us all. So help me God. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In my opinion I blame the Government for they are the ones who must issue peace and govern their country. They are responsible of every act they do so they must protect them and have order in the country but in they haven't.
2. The best advice I can give is that to take in refugees, for they are still human. I mean if the sides we're switch would they not feel the same way to escape.
3. I think it is disappointing and sad. That many lives are lost due to the selfishness and stubbornness of others. That the innocent are affected and killed.
4. I can first spread awareness to others about this crisis. Second donate to the refugees and finally love others, care for others, This may not reach now but when you pass this one everyone will soon learn to.
5. I can utilize social media by spreading awareness to others and convince others (especially those in Europe) to help.
6. I Pledge to help these refugees as many ways as I can and Pray for them everyday for their safety and their aim for peace.
7. An advice to him is to establish embassy's in Europe or if there is any and take in these refugees where they are not allowed. To give as much aid to them and also to convince other countries to help and give as much aid to them.
8. I would tell them to take in these refugees and care for them until it all settles down.
9. Yes for we must help others, I believe that the children are the future, so to take care of a child is to take care of the future so if the child has no parents they will not live or grow properly.
10. Dear God, Creator of Heaven and earth. May you please help guide these people to safety that lesser death occur. May you help everyone realize to help others. May you please end this war and bring back peace. I pray that the people's stories, such as Aylan's, may be Heard across the nation. That love will win and that there will be no despair. Amen

ReplyDelete1. In my opinion, we should blame the Syrian government for not giving the citizens of Syria protection and the freedom they deserve.
2. The best thing they can do is to help save a soul, and they could save a soul by letting those refugees in.
3.It was sad when i heard that news. It seemed unfair because Aylan and his family just wanted to survive and start again but it’s like they were forbidden to do so.
4.First awareness, people around us should know what is happening so that action can be done. Second show equality, we need to show people that everyone is equal and have the right to live. third, show care for the marginalized.
5.Social media is the best way to spread awareness and gather people to do some action.
6.I would tell people about what is happening to Syria and show my concern so that other people would do the same.
7.Our government should open our country for the refugees so that they have a place to be safe ion.
8.I would also tell them about the problem that is happening so that they would be aware.
9.yes because these syrian kids deserve proper care and if their own country can’t give them care, then who would?
Heavenly father, please help and guide the government of syria in keeping their own country safe. Also please guide the men who are doing wrong to the right path. Amen.

2 points each. Write your answers in the comment page with your full name and section.
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
In my opinion the ones that should be blamed are the ISIS members.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
The best advice I can give is for them to imagine if they were in the shoes of the Syrians and other war-torn countries and what would they do to survive.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
It is a sad reality that is happening now. The longer it takes to stop this war the more people will suffer. Taking in refugees in our own countries is not enough. For this to stop we must destroy the source of this war which is ISIS.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
-start a propaganda on raising awareness about the situation in syria and other war-torn countries
-make infomercials to inform more people about the situation
-make appeals to different organizations against war and start a movement
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
By making blogs and pages dedicated to increase awareness on the situation
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to increase my awareness and the awareness of other people about this conflict. I promise to find time to pray for these people and for the peace and prosperity of their country. I promise to always lend a helping hand whenever I get the opportunity to help.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
To always be informed on the latest happenings and be ready to help if ever the UN asks, though I do not suggest PNoy accept these refugees yet for the Philippines itself has enough problems and citizens in need.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
To not be racist to them and treat them with patience and kindness.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
No, this is my honest answer. As it is my family is already saving money for college and my parents will retire soon if ever we do adopt it would burden my family. This is not because we don't care for them it is because it will not be efficient. If we adopt a kid my parents would be to old and sickly to take care of them all the way to their adolescence and soon enough I will have to go to college in which I cannot help my parents either way. The best we could do is either donate to organizations and offer our services time to time.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear God,
The world today is faced with conflicts which involve each one of us here on earth. Recently the people of syria and other war-torn countries are suffering and dying due to the evil acts of ISIS. Through your mercy and compassion we pray to you asking you to guide our brothers and sisters and help them find refuge. May our brothers and sisters find hope and a better life. For those who have already passed away trying to escape their countries and for those who have died in the hands of ISIS, may their souls rest in peace with you in paradise. Amen.
1. The terrorists are to blame for the crisis. To be honest, I'm angry at them because all they know is killing and killing. They are cold, heartless and have no regard for innocent people. I personally don't see why there has to be war, and why there's no peace there.
ReplyDelete2. My advice is to think of how much hardship, misery, and nightmare these people went through and to offer anything they have, even give them services free since they deserve welcoming arms and anything they can use to start a new life. Homes should be put up, having guards to protect them, so that they can have a happy, comfortable life free from persecution.
3. After seeing footage of Aylan, I was shocked by the reality of people living broken lives because of crises. I now wonder why not all are treated equally, why some have to go through hard times. I also felt sad that a child had to die so early, simply because they were forced to do something to save themselves. I also feel that we should do something to end wars in Syria.
4. Everything starts with prayer. I can add those who are suffering to my intentions when I pray. I can also give donations during mass and other events, and also show respect to beggars and give them their needs. I can also advocate through videos or infomercials.
5. On my blog, I can occasionally post about news related to terrorism and acts of war happening, as well as my thoughts about these matters. It's a way to let others know my opinion and can also ignite others to do the same.
6. I pledge to be more active in giving donations to those in need during disasters or war, and to always pray for them, that they may find peace, and that wars and chaos will cease to exist.
7. My advice is to push for the plan of opening our country to refugees which gives them the chance to start a new life and to leave behind a country torn apart by war. They can follow up by sending evacuation teams to the affected countries so that families may be saved and that they can be somewhere more peaceful and warm.
8. I would tell them to tune in to the news so that they can be well informed, and to donate for the refugees. They may also appeal to the government for their concern, along with other countrymen, that they may prepare to be more open towards refugees.
9. Yes, since after all they've been through, it's only right that there should be someone open to give them a new life. It would mean a lot to them to belong in a family again, to feel loved, and to enjoy life. These people, especially the children, should never have to experience what war is like, but rather what a happy life is like.
10.
Dear God,
I pray for the people who cannot experience a happy life due to war. I feel sad that these people have to live this way, and that they grew up living in harsh conditions. Lord, I ask that you please end the chaos and nightmare that these people are facing, because they have suffered enough. Please help them find peace, hope, and strength, please send the Holy Spirit and the power of Your son, Jesus Christ, to overpower and outweigh the sadness and corruption that they went through, and please assure them that their burden will end, and that after it all, you love them and are with them wherever they go.
In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

Delete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDeleteI believe that the war in Syria is the fault of the government for not even bothering to tolerate their own people expressing their desires.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I would say that those governments that are hesitant to help should let the refugees into the country for shelter. An act of kindness like this would let their citizens have more pride in their country and make them more willing to help.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I feel that all this tragedy could have been avoided entirely if their government was more tolerant about the expression of ideas.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
Here are some things we can do:
We can adopt the family/children that were displaced by the war

5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?

I say push forward with accepting refugees. Only good can come from helping these people in need.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I would suggest that they try to do everything they can with the relief efforts, as well as consider adopting a child/family.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
I am more than willing to adopt. I think that I should be grateful for not having to experience such horrors, and I should share what I have to those who need it.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Lord in Heaven, I pray that those who were affected by this world may find peace in your loving embrace. I pray that all the victims of this and forthcoming tragedies will be able to escape such things and find comfort in your light.

3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?

Donate.

ReplyDelete1. In my opinion, the Syrian government is totally responsible for the lack of freedom and peace among Syrian people. They are the ones who started violent crackdowns among protesters way back in 2011. Their relations with different armies like ISIL made the uprising even greater that resulted to massacres and human rights violations. The Syrian government should primarily protect their own people and not to harm them by using chemical warfare. Because of this ongoing war, so many Syrians are now homeless and displaced looking for a much better and safer place to live.
2. The best advice that I could give is to have compassion and open their doors to the aggrieved refugees. To escape from a war torn area with nothing but their clothes and little possession is such an ordeal. Just like us, they are also humans who need basic care, food and shelter. Since they are countries that could provide these things, it would be a great help to the refugees to be extended this kind of gesture.
3. It so sad to see such useless loss of lives of a family whose only desire is to escape the war crisis in their country. It should have not happened but because of their father's will to bring them out safely, it ended up in a tragedy. I wish we could turn back the time because Aylan and his brother Ghaleb did not even get to see what life is all about.
4. Their should be a fund drive to help the people who are in need, do volunteer or charity work in organizations helping the poor and to educate or make people knowledgeable about things happening within the community and other far flung areas.
5. We could make a documentary film regarding the effects of war, what it can do, how people are affected and how the citizens could help one another.
6. I promise to have an open mind and heart who are in great need. Share your blessings to the less fortunate and be aware of the things that are happening around you.
7. I will advise the President to do everything that he can do avoid any uprising or civil war in the country. We have seen such loss of lives, destruction and human rights violations from the Syrian war and we don't want that to happen in our own country. There should be dialogues held in order to attain peace instead of fighting each other without forgetting the cost of losing human lives.
8. I would advice them to help the refugees because they have already endured a lot of hardships and they don't have any place to go.
9. Yes, because that is giving service to others in your own capacity. You may not be able to give them back everything or their normal life but at least we could provide them some sense of comfort and compassion.
10. Heavenly Father,
You have created this world as a beautiful place for people to be one, yet there are times when chaos and fighting destroys life such as the little angel Aylan and the other refugees. Heal their land dear Lord and lift up the sprits of the afflicted. . Bless the souls of the departed and welcome them into your kingdom. Make the refugees strong and resilient, provide them hope and comfort knowing that they will find peace and harmony in the near future. We ask this in Jesus, Mighty name Amen.
1.) In my opinion I think that the government of Syria should be the one to be blamed. The government keeps the country united and helps to form a sense of community, patriotism, and national pride.
ReplyDelete2.) Other European countries should extend help and assistance to those affected by the crisis. Although, we understand that there are many issues and challenges that pertains to this problem such as: security, economic, and social aspects.
3.) I feel sorry for the family of Aylan, and the other families affected by the crisis happening in Syria, because of the irresponsibility of their government.
4.) As a Lasallian I would:
Support advocacies on world peace.
Be a medium in communicating the real issues surrounding the problem to others.
Always pray for those who need most of God’s mercy.
5.) I can use the social media in helping the ones affected by
Spreading peace in the internet.
Spreading the real issue on what is happening.
Advocate peace and love.
6.) Spread Awareness and support organizations that promote peace and love.
7.) I would advice the Aquino Administration to promote peace in our region and address the internal security problem we are facing. Also to strengthen the capabilities of our security sectors.
8.) I will tell them to support and extend help to the refugees.
9.) Yes we are willing to adopt a refugee because we want to help them have a better life. We are very blessed and I would happily share my blessings with them.
10.) Dear God, I pray for the soul of Aylan. Please watch over all of those facing the terrible crisis happening in Syria. I ask that they will find peace. Please guide and protect them with your love. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
- I believe that it’s the government. They are responsible for what happens to the country because they are the ones who are deciding on how to solve certain issues of the country
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
- I believe that they should help these refugees because we are all brothers and sisters. We should all care for each other’s well-being.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
- I think that it is very upsetting to hear about this. We are all human beings and we all deserve equal rights. The refugees that died weren’t able to practice these rights. I also think that this war opens our eyes of the consequences of only thinking of yourself and not the people around you.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- As Lasallians we try our very best to help the ones in need. I would pray for the terrorist so that they would able to see the right path, I would also help spread awareness to this issues and I would try to look for others ways that I could help them and the ones in need like the poor people in the country.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
- I would share some stories of the refugees so that people would be more aware and if possible foster one if they come to the Philippines.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to help anyone in need as much as I can like praying for them because there’s nothing more powerful in the world than praying to God. I would also help out by trying to donate or at least comforting people in need.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
- When Yolanda came to the Philippines people from all over the world tried to lend a helping hand through donations, service and much more. I would advise them to help out as much as they can because if it was they would also help.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
- I would advise them to help as much as they can as soon as they can because every minute they waste another refugee gets hurt or worse murdered. We should always think what if that was us?
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes, I would adopt him/her for a certain amount of time. I would want to do this because they deserve to experience a life without war. This would not only help them but it would also help me grow more as a child of God.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world
Almighty God, we are all sorry for all the wrong we have done against you and others. Please help Alyan and other refugees find the freedom they deserve and for the terrorists to realize the wrong they have done. AMEN.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
— I think that it is the Syrian government's fault in this situation. They are responsible in ensuring peace and order in the country. However, this cannot be attained, because they are so selfish — they only care about themselves. They do not want to protect their countrymen. ISIS should also be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace, because they kill innocent people just to get what they want. War is never the solution.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
— I would tell them to open their hearts and minds. They must welcome the refugees from the war-torn countries because we are all sisters and brothers here. I would ask them, “If you were in their situation right now, what would you feel?” Helping does not hurt anybody! We are so blessed because we are not going through the sufferings they are experiencing now.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
— I was truly saddened because they are innocent people who did not deserve it at all. I wish that they achieve justice. Although, I am thankful because this served as an “eye opener” for many people.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
— As a Lasallian, I will practice showing sympathy and compassion to the people around me by being a good example, spread awarness in my own little ways (social media) & helping in organizations that support this cause.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
— Using social media, I can make videos or a group page that talks about this issue so that other people may be enlightened about this happening. I will also share/tweet articles discussing about the trials of the refugees.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
— I pledge to raise awareness to those suffering in Syria, so that everyone will be informed and motivated to help them.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
— I will tell them to help these people by offering some refugees homes to stay and live in.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
— I will tell my relatives to be welcoming by helping in donating clothes to the refugees. I will also tell them to support various organizations regarding this,
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
— Yes, no one deserves to live a life like that. I am willing to make the kid or family happy, because even if we are not blood-related, I want to make them feel loved and I will do this by always making sure that they are safe.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
— Heavenly Father,
I pray that all the refugees from war-torn countries, including Aylan, who lost their innocent lives, finally found peace in Your loving arms. We know that they are in a better place, O, Lord, so provide them now with care and safety. I also pray for those who are still suffering and encountering hardships, may You lead them to Your path and guide them to Your light. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In my opinion, the Syrian government is totally responsible for the crisis occurring. It is very heartbreaking to hear the stories for the Syrian people who just want to be free but end up in worse places.
2. I would encourage everyone (not necessarily limited to the European governments) to be more aware of the situations going on so that they will be able to reach out to each other and help each other out. As children of God, we should never be hesitant in doing acts of kindness.
3. I am heartbroken. I find it very unfair that families who have done absolutely nothing wrong are being affected negatively. It is upsetting that not enough people are doing their part to learn about the horrible reality that is occurring now.
4.
Like I mentioned earlier, raising awareness is a very effective way to get more people to help. I can make infomercials, posters and more posts to promote what is going on.
I will continue to pray everyday for the souls of the people affected by these situations. I can join Faith organizations as well so that we can all pray for the well-being of citizens in war torn countries.
I, myself, can be more of a role model to my peers. We all have influences on each other, good and bad, and if we show others how we want our leaders to be like, the chances of these problems occurring or worsening will be lessened.
5. I can post and share articles and videos about the Syrian crisis so that my friends and family members can be persuaded to check on what is happening. Also, since we are part of a techy generation, we can make clever infomercials, posters, essays, articles and even documentary films to raise more awareness and encourage others to help through donation and sharing.
6. I pledge to reach out to those in need through prayer, active good deeds and more to show that I have an open mind and open heart. By doing this, we can not only help those in need, but help each other.
7. I would encourage the Aquino administration to reach out more. When typhoons and tragedies hit our country, other countries are more than willing to help us get back on our feet, and we must do the same to show our gratitude. Allowing refugees to stay here from the time being may be a positive way to help. I would also advise them to continue spreading the word and speaking up about the problem because just because it isn’t happening in our country doesn’t mean it has less importance.
8. I would tell my relatives to update themselves with the news and the problems that are going on by watching or listening to the news. I will continue to encourage them to speak up about it or do something about it, even simple actions like donating to organizations that will help the refugees.
9. I would honestly adopt, even just for a limited time. I want to help others, not just be aware of what’s going on - any simple act of kindness can go a long, long way. If I had the chance to choose, I would adopt a kid just until there is a family willing to sponsor the kid completely.
10.
Our Father,
You are a powerful and almighty God who can do anything - and for that, we apologize for all our sins and wrong doings we have done consciously and unintentionally. Please bless all the refugees and those affected by the Syrian war and give them strength and faith during these hard times. Please bless those people who are in charge of all these wrongdoings - may they realize that what they are doing is wrong and find power to stop it. Lord God, please bless everybody with the amount of freedom that they need for justice to be served. Amen.

ReplyDelete1.) I believe that the Syrian government is doing their part. They are the cause of this. The government is supposed keep the people one, to show us the true meaning of national pride.
2.) The best advice I can give is "what would Jesus do" or "what would you want if you were in their place. This would make them think twice on the actions they will do. God would show mercy and do what is best for the people. That is the best advice I can give.
3.) I feel really bad for the families affected by the crisis in Syria, just like Aylan's family. This was due to the irresponsibility of the government and the their lack of care for their people.
4.) As a Lasallian I would:
1. Pray for all those affected in the tragedy.
2. Support the groups that help in making peace
3. Serve as an example and do good to those in need
5.) I can use the social media in helping the ones affected by
Informing others about the things that are happening in society
Show what we can do to help the affected ones
Spread Peace and Love and Awareness
6.) I promise to pray to God, to help those who are affected. I believe that prayer is a powerful tool that I can use to help those who have been affected.
7.) I want our government, the Aquino Administration to spread peace in our region and fix the internal security problems that our country faces. Also to improve our capabilities in our security sector.
8.) I would ask them to do the most they can to help out those in need. It is always good to extend a hand to those in need, for God would always extend His hand to help us, and we should do the same to those in need.
9.) Yes, because we are brought in this world to take care of the earth and those around us. It is our obligation to do right whenever we can, because that is what God does for us, he will help us in our time of need. We should do the same and adopt.
10.) Almighty Father, please guide the lost souls of the people and shine your light upon them. May we be able to spread the love that you have given to us to those in need. We are sorry if we can not do enough to help out to those who need it the most. You are the most merciful and loving for showing your Love to us. Lord, please help the least the lost, and the forgotten to find peace and may you continue showing your love to them. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
- There is an ongoing civil war in Syria between the people and the government. Ever since, it was the dictator Bashar al-Assad who did not want to step down from power. He would fight back the rebellion with cruel violence which involved torturing children and using chemical weapons, etc.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
- This evolved into a global issue that needs to be addressed urgently. My advice is to accommodate as much refugees as they can, and still providing them with a good life.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
"When one man dies, that's a tragedy. When thousands die, that's a statistic." I think that the tragedy Aylan went through made the world turn heads to this issue. These stories are disheartening, but it shines light into things we must talk about today.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
By showing compassion through 1)raising awareness through social media, 2)start donating and pledging to give money towards movements to take in refugees, and 3)by being updated about Syrian news.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
- We have the power to share the stories of individuals all around the world, and make their voice heard.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
- I pledge to share more posts about Syria and also give donate more towards the UN to resolve this issue.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
- Follow international laws. If a refugee enters our country, we must welcome them and care for them.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
- Continue to voice out your concern, even though your government is not being as kind. Be welcoming.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes, because it is my duty as a human. It's as simple as that. Under international law, we must take care of refugees. No matter where they come from or what they look like.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
- Heavenly Father, show your mercy for these Syrian refugees. Shower your compassion upon UN leaders and gov't officials to make sure to make the right decisions in order to help the refugees. I pray that you make us into more selfless humans, and to be more like You. I pray that you stay with them in their darkest times, and that You may guide them into a better future. In Your name we pray, Amen.

ReplyDelete1. I think that ISIS is the one responsible for the lack of freedom and peace among the Syrians.
2. I advise the European governments to always help in any way possible those people in desperate need. Like what Jesus said, "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.”
3. I feel incredibly devastated and angry for what happened these refugees. They did not deserve to pas at such a young age. They had a whole life ahead of them. What makes me more upset is that they already escaped the war and disaster, yet they still did not manage to get the peaceful life they deserved.
4. I think the best way to address this problem is by simply praying to God. We pray that the war would soon be over and that these refugees would finally live the peaceful life they deserve. Also, we pray that the fallen refugees shall find peace in heaven. Another way is to join debates and discussion regarding this issue. Through this, we are able to gain more awareness and information regarding the current situation of the country and at the same time, share our expertise and thoughts. Lastly, we can donate to organizations that aid in helping war-torned Syria.
5. We can utilize social media to share our thoughts and opinions regarding the issue. We can share videos and news articles about the war in Syria. This could make our followers and friends on social media be more aware of the issue happening in Syria, thus inspiring them to do spread the news which in the end could help many of these refugees.
6. I pledge to always include in my prayers the many refugees still striving for peace and unity amongst the nation. I pledge to also pray for the lives of the many fallen ones who have sacrificed their lives to save their loved ones.
7.I advise the Aquino administration to always be up-to-date on the current situation happening in Syria and how it affects the entire world, including our country. I also advise the administration to help in any possible way they can in order to alleviate the situation and aid in the rescue of these refugees.
8. I advise my relatives to always pray to the Lord for safety and peace. I also advise them to remain humble and generous to the refugees that may come along them. At times of great despair, they must help those refugees who seek for shelter and safety.
9. Yes, of course. As a human being, I am most willing to adopt any of the child refugees. These children deserve to live a better life. A childhood of love, safety, and peace. They cannot spend their childhood living in danger and fear. They cannot live in a battlefield of blood, sweat, and tears; witnessing loved ones die right before their eyes. They are too young for this brutality.
10. Heavenly Father, I am most deeply sorry for what the world has become. The world has turned to a place filled with darkness, hatred, fear, and violence. Us humans have become reckless. We have become foolish and confused. Despite this, I am still thankful for the hope you have given us. I am thankful for instilling within us an undying faith that the world would soon become the peaceful home it was once was. I pray that you will continue guiding these refugees to the path of safety and peace. I pray that this war would finally come to an end and everyone shall finally rejoice and be unified once again. And as for the fallen ones, I pray that they find peace with you in heaven. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. The people causing the crisis should be blamed for. They made decisions that could hurt people and create more problems like this crisis.
2. We are all God's children in this world, so let us treat one another like brothers and sisters. God would want us to help those in need of help.
3. Everything happens for a reason, and these could be good or bad. God has a plan for all of us and that plan we will have an answer for these plans of His.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I think the only people to blame here is ISIS. All of these things were not mean't happen or it is not necessary. Yet they decide to start a war to push their beliefs, when it was possible for them to come to peace with everyone else.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
If the only reason they don't welcome refugees is because they can't handle them, then they should communicate and unite with each other to solve the issue. If they are all going for the same goal and willing to help these refugees, then it should be enough to provide for a solution.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I feel heartbroken for the family of Aylan. They were living a simple life like us then suddenly, they experience some tragedy for something they were not even responsible for.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- Educate people on the Matter so that they understand the situation these people are going through. It make them aware of the serious situation which will inclined them to take action.
- Get more people involved on the issue so that there's action being taken. When an issue like this arises, not much people could contribute for certain reasons so there should be ways in which they could able to give their contribution.
- We should all unite to solve this problem. It will be more efficient and effective if we all solve together rather than solve in our own accordance.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
I would probably make a post on the situation. Not much people would probably read but nowadays on the internet, any post is seen or read by least one person.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I will do my part in help these refugees by donating to organizations who are doing their part of helping the refugees.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
They should let the other countries know that they are ready to help refugees so they may be able do their part.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I will inform them about the situation and let them understand how dire the situation is. I will tell to try and do the best they can do for the refugees. I would also advice to spread the word and work with others to solve the issue.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
To be honest, I wouldn't adopt a kid or family. It's not that I don't want to help them but it's because I feel like I couldn't handle them. They deserve better than to be dragged down by me.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear God,
Please bless and help those refugees in the world. They are just normal people like ourselves but they are faced with a great tragedy that they weren't even responsible for. They may be able to move on to a peaceful and free life that they deserve.
Please bless those causing the war that they may understand that war is pointless and would led to nowhere. They may find something in their hearts to care for the people they are affecting. Lastly, we pray for souls of refugees that they may find their peace in heaven.
Amen
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?

ReplyDelete1. No one is to blame, but if someone or something has to be chosen, it's religion. Religion is supposed to create peace, yet all it's doing it starting wars.
2. I would tell them to put themselves in the refugees shoes and see what it feels like to be completely helpless.
3. I am very disappointed as to how far this war has gone. It has reached the point where children are washed ashore, yet none of them care.
4. - I will pray for the Syrian refugees
- I will practice equality among society
- I will treat everyone in the same manner, no matter what race, gender, or religion
5. I will post photos and messages concerning this problem, telling all the viewers to pray for the refugees.
6. I will pledge to always pray for these refugees, and at the same time treat everyone the same, no matter what their preferences are in order to promote equality.
7. I will advise him to give donations to the refugees.
8. I would tell them to help represent their country and welcome the refugees with open arms.
9. I would, because they are the ones in need. I am lucky to have everything I own today, so might as well share them with someone.
10. Lord, please help all the Syrian refugees. Please lead them to the right path, wherein no harm shall be done to them. Please let Aylan be a symbol or a sign for the war to stop and for peace and order to begin. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. We can't solely put all the blame on one country, but I would say the Syrian government is the one to blame. Syria is undergoing a civil war, I read up a bit about it and basically the government isn't doing its job. If the government did its job, there wouldn't be a war, there wouldn't even be refugees. The country would be peaceful and all this death would not have happened.
2. I would advise them to put themselves into the shoes of the refugees. How would you feel if you were in their situation? No home, nowhere to go and still shunned by your neighbors. We're humans, let's be humane and open up our arms and homes to these refugees.
3. It's heartbreaking to know that they died that way. Sadly, they've gone now and their deaths should at least mean something, their deaths should be a wake up call to all European countries. They shouldn't let any more people die like they did and opening their borders is a simple yet compassionate gesture that will save the lives of many.
4. Firstly, I will pray for the refugees. I will pray for peace to reign and for this war to end. I will also pray for the neighboring countries to let the refugees in. Secondly, I will read up on what's happening with this crisis. Being aware on the events happening in Syria is a way to understand what's really going on. Lastly, I will raise awareness. Others are still unaware of the fact that children are dying on shores and so many people are dying. I'll talk about it because it needs to be known that this is happening. We can't turn a blind eye to the horrible things happening to our own brothers and sisters.
5. I can raise awareness about this issue. Others still might not know of this crisis and once aware may be able to help.
6. My prayers go out to all those suffering in Syria. I pledge to strive for a better future, wherein no one has to go through what you've all gone through.
7. The Aquino Administration can donate a sum of money to Angela Merkel's funds to accommodate the refugees. A prayer service can also be held for this world crisis, maybe in collaboration with Cardinal Tagle.
8. I'd advise them to be open to these people. We can't let any more people die due to this crisis. Let us all learn to be open and loving, even to those who are not of the same race.
9. Yes, because they've suffered enough. The least I can do is to help them get through this tough time. They need a home and I'd be more than happy to give them a place to stay.
10. Dear Father, as the world goes into a crisis, we ask that You guide and protect our brothers and sisters in Syria, Iraq, Pakistan and others. May You be with these refugees Father as they flee their homes in search of a peaceful life somewhere else. Lord, too many have died. Too many have suffered the loss of loved ones. Too many lives have been lost in this fight. May the lives who've been lost be at peace with You once again Father. And may the ones who've lost their children, mothers, fathers, husbands and wives cling on to You, God. This is going to be a tough time for all of them and we ask that You comfort them, Lord. Be with them as they continue to walk on without their loved ones. Aylan Kurdi's death was a tragic and heartbreaking one. We pray that he may rest in peace with You, and that he may not die in vain. May his death be a wake up call to the Europeans, so that the other refugees may still be saved. Dear Lord, we pray that humans show their humanity. We pray for this war and suffering to end and for peace to reign across the earth. May we all learn to be like You, Father. To love like You. May all glory be unto You, Lord as we pray, all glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be world without end. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
In my opinion I think the Syrian government and ISIS are who are to blame for the lack of freedom because without conflict from terrorist groups like ISIS we would all be living in a better world. The Syrian Government is also responsible for their people and how they are being treated because they are given the power to do so.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
We should always remember to share and be humble, when we do we are being true Christian followers. The least thing that the people who are unaffected by this can do is to open Thor arms and help other people because it's the right thing to do as humans.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
Though the whole situation was wrong we should realize that everything happens for a reason, though what happened to them is very heartbreaking and unfair we should realize that the hidden message to this is for us to open our eyes to the evil in our world and do something to stop it.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- Donating what I can to at least suffice the basic needs of these people who desperately need help and have just went through something very unfair and cruel
- Spread Awareness about what's happening to the world and showing people how we neglect the lives of people we do not know to stop this in the future
- Pray for everyone who is affected though I may not be able to fly to the refugees to help them through simple prayer God will lead the way to peace
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
Through social media we can open the eyes of those living in a world where they only concentrate on themselves and do not realize the problems in our world where people are being killed for the stupidest reasons or none at all.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
DeleteI pledge to be more aware of what is happening in our world and helping in my own little way by spreading the word about current events and not just sharing these articles but by actually praying and seeing to it that I do something to help.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
I would honestly tell the Aquino administration that we need to take care of some of these refugees because though we are just a developing country we should realize that what these people are use to is far from our way of living and we should always show our compassion and open our arms
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I would highly push them to take in or adopt a family if they can properly take care of themselves and the refugee because it's the right thing to do. Of course if they really cannot accommodate an additional mouth to feed and take care of then it is alright but i will still push them to share what they can.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
I wholeheartedly will adopt and take care of a kid or a refugee though I know it will be a very hard thing to do because they need more love and attention it is truly worth it to help at least one person and knowing that one less person is going through something as cruel and unfair as this.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear Lord,
We a core you for all that you have given and done for us, we are sorry for all the wrong doings we have committed and the times where we fall into temptation, we thank you for all that you have done and given use and we are eternally grateful but I beg of you please help those who need you and your goodness to get through all the hardships they are facing. Amen

in my opinion the government should be blamed for all of this since their government is a authoritarian government.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
My advice is that when the European government they should accept the refugees since they are also human they want to live a free life. and before accepting them the countries should have already prepare the needs of the refugees so that the refugees wont start a disturb the peace and order in the country.

Gianina Aventajado JH
ReplyDeleteIn your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I think the Syrian government is to blame, because they aren't keeping the peace in their country like they are supposed to. Also they are not taking care and protecting their people.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I think I could remind them that you should treat others the way you want to be treated, and if it were the other way around they would want the Syrians to accept them in their country if ever they were at war and needed a safe place.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I find it very unfortunate that they had to die. All they wanted was to be free and live a peaceful life. They could not find this in their own country so they tried to leave and go to Europe, but there they were not accepted and they needed up dying at sea.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
I can start in my own little ways, by being kind, accepting, also I can spread awareness for the people
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
I can spread the word so people become aware of their situation and how they can help these Syrian people, how we can help them find a place where they can be free.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I'd help them in as many ways as I can. I pledge to spread awareness so that everyone will know what is happening to these people.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
i would say we could give our best efforts to help save the Syrians. The Philippine embassies there could serve as a place for them to stay.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I would tell them that they should try to help these people, take them in if you can and help them start their new lives as free people.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
of course! I feel everyone deserves to live a free life and these people for so long were deprived of that, if my act of adopting them until they get on their feet will help them, then of course I will help.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear Lord, please help all the people suffering, may you guide them and help them find their peace. Help us end the wars and help us save lives. Hell the people who have strayed away from you realize their mistakes and find you again. For those who are already safe and free thank you for helping them find what they wanted. Amen

ReplyDelete1. ISIS, government and the humanity we have at present time; because of ISIS, there are many and thousands of lives being taken away by their violent acts. Government, because of how their highest leader seems to not have good management in this case or basically, the rules they have put up for the country makes it harder to move with the certain restrictions implemented. Humanity, because technically; there are a lot of conflicts within our societies that may contribute to the war and violence of places and it doesn't get managed or have quick acts to stop it so.
2. My advice is that they should be whole-heartedly welcoming these refugees no matter what. There is nothing wrong at all with having different cultures and varieties of beliefs. All of us have different beliefs. Every country has their own too, and also their own culture. Again, nothing is wrong with culture difference and this shouldn't affect any of us in a bad way. This isn't bad in general, factors depend on how the people will be accepting and opening themselves for these refugees.
3. I am greatly devastated and really melancholic about Aylan, his mother and brother and the other refugees who were affected and have lost their lives in this crisis. They did not deserve this not at all, and they did not also deserve the unjust treatment they experienced. Their futures await for them but instead, their lives were taken away instead. I know they had strong hope in each of their hearts, but their death killed it. No one deserves this kind of treatment.
4. Spreading love and kindness with the promotion of peace, helping one another to feel great care and compassion through good and kind acts, and educating one another on how to keep the peaceful and harmonious atmosphere.
5. With the use of social media, we can help by spreading the news for the people to be perceived and for them to be given a head-start on what acts they can do to give great help to these refugees.
6. Promote peace, spread love, and goodness shall come from above. I pledge to spread kindness, love and peace and to give ultimate support and help for these refugees, and the other people affected by it.
7. The advice I could give the Aquino administration is that they should also open up their minds, hearts and hands so they can give and reach out their help to these people and to have essential efforts to do so.
8. I would be informing them about this situation for them to be perceived and so that from their awareness, they could also ponder and think about what they can do to have and give great help.
9. For me, I'm willing to adopt a kid because of how fixed shelter and food are really essential in their life.
10. Lord, please bless and guide these refugees and every single individual in the world. Protect us in Your loving arms. Please give all of these people hope to be kept in their hearts for they could look forward to what their future is holding at this very moment. We love You, Almighty Father. Amen.

2 points each. Write your answers in the comment page with your full name and section.
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I think we should blame ISIS and other terrorist groups, because everybody is striving for freedom and they are the ones who to continue to prevent this from happening. Other people are so insensitive for the needs of other people, and they are not aware that their actions affect other people in great ways.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I advise that you give as much support as you can. Being empathic and sensitive to other people's needs is important, you must have a heart to help these people.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I think that this is so unfair, all they want freedom is freedom and they can't even find the ways to attain it. Everybody deserves freedom, and nobody deserves to die trying to reach it. Their family is one of the many families who are being torn apart by these insensitive and selfish people.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?

1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
In my opinion, it should be directed at their President, Bashar al-Assad. He had an authoritarian rule over the country, and the authoritarian rule is what restricted its people's freedom.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I would tell them to change. They need to change so that they can help other people.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
It is very heartbreaking and i believe a change is a must so that this will be prevented.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- First off is help the refugees. They matter first because they are the ones who need help the most. I know that I live far from them, but the least I can do is to provide them their needs by sending them some of what I have.
- If no one tries to give them a home, I'll try to make mine a place for them. I know that we are far from Syria, but if there is no choice for them anymore in Europe, I'd be glad to open mine.
- I'll also convince a relative and my in-laws in Europe to open up to them. I'm sure they'd understand.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
By making pages to support the refuges and entering the european government.
6. I will pledge to always pray for these refugees, and at the same time treat everyone the same, no matter what their preferences are in order to promote equality.
7. I will advise him to give donations to the refugees.
8. I would tell them to help represent their country and welcome the refugees with open arms.
9. I would, because they are the ones in need. I am lucky to have everything I own today, so might as well share them with someone.
10. Lord, please help all the Syrian refugees. Please lead them to the right path, wherein no harm shall be done to them. Please let Aylan be a symbol or a sign for the war to stop and for peace and order to begin. Amen.

ReplyDelete1.) In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
• I think that the ISIS group is to be blamed since they are the ones putting the lives of Syrian people at stake. The Syrian government could no longer protect their people because the problem is too much for them to handle and there are a lot of people suffering in Syria
2.) What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
• These countries are suffering because of the wrongdoings of others. They are losing their lives and suffering, and can no longer find peace in their country. If they want other countries to help them when they are the ones in trouble, they should be more welcoming to those who need hospitality
3.) What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
• I believe they didn't deserve to die that way because it was not their fault that their country is at war.
4.) As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
• Pray for those affected
• Spread the word to others so they will know the gravity of the situation
• Put up or contribute to organizations and programs (like fund raisers) to help Syria.
5.) How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
• Social media can help spread awareness to others all around the world. Awareness leads to change. If more people know about the situation, more can contribute or be inspired to do something. Others can at least pray for those in need.
6.) What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
• I pledge to continue spreading the word that Syria is in need of help so that many people can pray for the situation to be fixed.
7.) What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
• Be prepared for when a situation like this could happen in the Philippines. Also, be welcoming to refugees.
8.) If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
• I will make them aware of the situation in Syria and try to convince them to inspire the people around Europe so that their government might have sympathy on the troubled Syrians and be more welcoming to them.
9.) If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
• I would be willing to adopt or take care of the refugees from Syria because their lives must be more difficult than anyone could imagine and if I were them, I would pray for a family to go to for safety.
10.) Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
• Dear God, I pray that Aylan and all others who lost their lives have now found peace. I pray for those suffering and having to pay the price for actions they never committed. I also pray that the European government will find in their heart the sympathy to take in refugees who are in need of help. May they have the strength to keep going on even with all the bad things that are happening. Amen.

ReplyDelete1.) Mainly, I believe it is the Syrian Government who is to blame. Syria is going under civil war, and the government cannot take control over their people. They are the ones supposed to lead the country towards a path of prosperity and harmony to live in, yet the ISIS and other terrorists group cease to emerge amongst all the struggles the country is facing. However, the ISIS/terrorists groups also have their own fault in this— people are striving for freedom but because of the ISIS' actions, freedom is being taken away from them.
2.) They should open their hearts to other people— though we may have different races, cultures, or beliefs, this should not create boundaries with one another. We should all support each other, lift each other up, and unite as one people. Sincerity, empathy, and acceptance is key in this situation; by helping the refugees, this will definitely bless those who have a heart to reach out.
3.) It is so heartbreaking, and they definitely did not deserve to die this way. They still had a long way ahead of them, yet their lives were cut short when they didn't have to be placed in such a cruel, tragic situation. I pray that this comes to a stop, it is so devastating to me to know that lives continue be lost everyday due this crisis.
4.)
• I will spread the word to others— awareness is the first step.
• I will continue to pray along with my other fellow Lasallians for the lives lost, and that this may all one to a stop so peace will be found.
• I will put up or contribute to organizations and programs that aim to aide this crisis.
5.) Social media makes the world smaller, as it connects the whole word no matter where they may be. No matter who you are, your voice can be heard. What I would do is I would write posts regarding the tragic situations that continue to happen, my opinions against why this should come to a stop, and a plea for help to make this situation end. Again, the more people are aware of the issue, the more people would be able to contribute to this problem.
6.) I pledge to continue to support and unite with all those who are against these terrible events in Syria and pray with all those all over the world that all this will come to an end. Prayer is powerful, and if many come together to pray, I believe it can move mountains with God's will.
7.) My advice is to ensure the the peace and harmony within its people, and encourage respect with one another despite the differences we may have. Prevention of tragedies like this should be started on today, so that no more nations will be destructed. Also, our government should help by taking in refugees because many are not being accepted by people around the world, and it breaks my heart because I wish I could extend my help.
8.) I will make them aware of the current situation, inspire, motivate, and encourage them to open their hearts to others so that they too may do the same towards the people of their country, and they may all together as one nation help relieve those who have suffered amidst the crisis. They have easier access to the refugees and help them than I have, and of my relatives were to help them it would be a blessing.
9.) Yes, I would give help to them as much as I can. If I were in their situation, I would be so desperate and be eternally grateful for the souls who would help put my life back at peace. No matter who they are, we are all brothers and sisters and we should all lovingly care for each other as we love ourselves.
10.) Dear God, I pray that Aylan may rest in peace and that perpetual light will shine upon not only him and his family, but as well as all those whose lives were lost during these dark times of fear and suffering. May God grant them eternal rest. I pray too that the people of this world may open their hearts to the lives of others, and that You may grant them the serenity of sincerity, acceptance, and empathy to willingly extend their arms to their brothers and sisters who have fallen. This we ask through Your name, Amen.

ReplyDelete1. I think it is both the ISIS radical extremists and the Syrian government. If the ISIS never did anything wrong, and if their government did their job properly, the Syrian people wouldn't have had any lack of freedom in the first place.
2. I would advice their government leaders to think about what would happen to the refugees if they do not offer help. Letting them in their borders and offering some aid would be the most moral thing to do in the situation.
3. I believe that they died in vain. Aylan, his mother, and the other Syrian refugees did not have to die that day, ISIS and the Syrian government are to blame for the incident.
4. As a lasallian, the best we could do now is pray, spread awareness, and help convince the Europeans to open their doors to house them.
5. We can use social media to help spread awareness to everyone and share our thoughts about this incident.
6. I can pledge that I will pray for them for nights to come.
7. I can advise them to send some aid through relief goods and medical supplies.
8. I would tell them about the situation, and ask if they can offer some of their resources to aid them, or maybe help in giving them a place to stay.
9. I would be willing if I had the financial capabilities to provide them what they need.
10. Dear God, we thank you that not all of us are suffering like how those refugees are right now. I ask that you protect everyone in times like this, and that you help them find happiness again. Maybe through feeding them or finding them a new home. I ask that you grant them the strength and the perseverance so they can surpass this suffering through your blessings and guidance. This I ask of you Lord,
Amen.

ReplyDelete1. Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad and his regime and extremist organizations like the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) were the main reasons for the lack of freedom, massacres and violence against its citizens, civil war and the humanitarian crises now being faced by the Syrian people. Syria fell into a deadly civil conflict in early 2011 after the Assad regime suppressed pro-democracy protests which erupted as part of the so-called “Arab Spring” uprisings – with unexpected ferocity.
Despite strong calls for his resignation, Assad rejected calls to step down from office.
2. European nations who opened their borders to refugees fleeing conflict zones like Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan should ensure that refugees are dealt with as human beings, treat them with compassion and protect their human rights. The refugees have a right to seek asylum without any form of discrimination.
Leaders of European countries like Germany and France who welcomed refugees will also inspire others if they will be “the voice of those in need of protection” and to quickly find a joint approach to address their basic needs." European leaders should also stand against increasing xenophobia, discrimination, and violence against migrants and refugees in Europe that is particularly important. Any manifestation of these phenomena should be addressed by the leaders firmly and without delay.
3. The drowning and death of Syrian toddler, Aylan, his mother and brother clearly showed that their plight is neither by their choice nor within their control and they need protection and they have a right to protection.
We saw that hundreds of thousands of people are risking their lives to cross the Mediterranean Sea. Conflict, civil war and fear from abusive regime aside from fear from terrorist organization like ISIS caused the people’s misery, loss of economic opportunities, extreme hardship and hunger. The refugees act for their survival.
4. By raising our awareness on the humanitarian crisis facing refugees and migrants and international issues that will eventually affect people from all countries, joining strong calls for the protection of human rights and acting with compassion, we as Lasallians contribute in our own way to address this problem.
5. The social media is a very effective tool in expressing our support to opening the borders to the refugees, closely monitoring their condition, seeing the reality and move governments and leaders to action.
Julia Brago Junior E (Part 2/2)
ReplyDelete6. Exercising extreme care and responsibility in posting on Facebook or Twitter, expressing my support for the improvement of the refugees’ condition and showing compassion will help ease the pains and sufferings of the refugees. We should be united in closely watching leaders and governments that they are protecting the life of the refugees.
7. The Philippines should be true to its commitment when the country said it is ready to take in Syrian refugees as a response to the humanitarian crisis in Europe. Like what we did to help the Vietnamese people, our country can be a temporary destination while refugees await to be accepted by a host country for their resettlement but the country needs to assess its actual resources and capabilities. The Philippines can also share the country’s best practices on processing of refugees and managing the deployment of workers to ensure their safe and legal passage to destination countries.
8. I will ask my relatives to respond to calls to treat the refugees humanely. With many of our compatriots (kababayans) working and living abroad, it would help to see the similarities in the plight of the refugees with that of Filipinos who are undocumented or illegal migrants in different countries. Because of the strong desire to help the family, many Filipinos risk working abroad despite difficulties.
9. I’m open to adopting a child from the refugees even with the limited or 'just enough' resources of the family. It will save a life, make a difference in the life of a child and greatly help find the opportunity for a better future.
10. Heavenly Father, please touch the hearts of the victims who were treated with inhumane actions. Please inspire them and give them hope even in the toughest times so they will have the strength to fight for the freedom and future they deserve. We include in our prayers those who passed away because of this issue and hope they find peace. Amen.

ReplyDelete2. Just think of the people around you. Try helping others and open yourselves to others. I believe this will help them unite as one.

Delete1. I believe that we cannot blame a country for the hardships that its people are going through. However, I think that it is the responsibility of the Syrian government to put a stop to all these horrible events. As the country's elected leaders, they must step up to their jobs and protect the public from injustice. I also believe that the ISIS is to blame for this heartbreaking situation because they are the ones who are causing acts of violence, which causes the people to seek refuge from the dangers they are producing.
ReplyDelete2. I would advice them to see the situation through the eyes of the people. In order to understand the hardships they are going through, they need to see it with their own eyes. As children of God, we are called to help others who are in desperate need of help, despite its consequences. Because of this, we must follow whatever God's purpose for us is.
3. To see people like Aylan and his family die in a way that is horrific, it is heartbreaking for not only me, but for the people who have heard of the news. This would have been prevented if the European governments have opened their barriers. It is an act of compassion, which will save the lives of thousands.
4. The first thing I would do is to offer my prayers to the innocent people who are unfortunately experiencing these horrifying events. I believe that God hands us these hardships to make us stronger. That way, it will prepare us for any future destitutions. Secondly, I would raise awareness so that the people in my life will have knowledge of the situation. Lastly, I will pay more attention to the news because they broadcast the current happenings in Syria.
5. With social media nowadays, there so numerous ways of communicating with others and to let our thoughts be known. I can use this to my advantage because it will help me be more vocal about the event. Also, I can interact with individuals and inspire them to take action.
6. Dedicating this pledge to the people of Syria, I solemnly pledge to work harder, so that there will be a future wherein war and violence cease to exist.
7. Although our countries are located in different continents, the Aquino administration can hold a conference to the people about this situation. The conference can address the issue and conduct events such as fundraisers. With the money raised, it can be donated to Angela Merkel's foundation. We cannot keep receiving. It is time we are able to give back.
8. Some rules are meant to be broken, so I would advice my relatives to open their homes to as much refugees they are able to welcome. Disregard whatever the European government says, because what Our Lord tells us to do is far more important.
9. Yes, I would. It is in my belief that people are not deserving of a life filled with violence and fear. They earned the right to a life where there is justice and peace.
10. Dear Father,
I pray that the events happening in Syria will cease to exist forever. They are deserving of a life where they need not to worry about dangers, where they are able to trust one another. Lord, I believe that you bestow these hardships on us to make us stronger. So, I pray that this will not make the Syrians weaker, but to have the strength to overcome any obstacle life has to offer. I pray for Aylan and all the people who sorrowfully suffered the same way he did. I hope that the European governments will have a sense of compassion and destroy their barriers. Welcome those who need refuge. I desperately pray that these events will send a message to the world, which will inspire them to take action and send as much help as they require. This we ask in Your Name, Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I believe that the government should be blamed because, they did not pay attention to the pleas of the Syrian people. If the government had listened to their people, nothing as serious as this would have happened.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I would advice them to help out the refugees because, these are humans. It would be inhumane to treat them like they are unimportant. If it were the case where the Europeans become refugees, many would help.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I cannot believe how anyone would let this happen. Many innocent people are being harmed and are dying because of the selfishness of some. The many refugees wanted to flee their country because they wanted to escape their deaths but, instead died anyway because they were deprived of freedom. Nothing like this should happen, no children or human should be washed onto shore because of any matter.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
I can speak out my opinion and share it with others to enlighten them on the issue, so that they will be able to speak their own and do something about it.
I can share about what i feel through social media and reach out to important/known people so that they can be able to help out and spread their word too.
I can pray for the refugees to be able to have their own freedom, and live their lives in peace.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
I can make others more aware on the matter so that they will know what they can do and so that others will be able to also share what they know and what they want to do.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I can promise that everyday I can pray for these people and do my best to make influential people take a stand on the matter.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
I can advice the Aquino administration to allow refugees into our country in order to provide them peace in their lives.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I will advice them to take a stand and help out those convincing the government to let the refugees in their territory.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes, I will be willing because these children and families deserve to live a life where they are free and where they are safe from harm.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Almighty God,
I ask that you give guidance to the refugees and to the government of each country so that these refugees may be let in and protected. Allow these refugees to live a life in peace and away from harm's way. Please give them the strength that they will need to get over all the obstacles that they will face. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. I think that the Syrian government is responsible for this because the government doesn't do it's job, that's why they are currently under civil war. With war in the way, people do not have the freedom and peace that they should have. If the government did it's job, no war would be occurring and no lives would be lost.
2. They should start helping out to those who need their help because they may not know that people are relying on them as a place for evacuation and survival.
3. Aylan, his mother and brother didn't deserve to die. They risked their lives to save themselves from the war but didn't make it to the shores of Europe safely. I'm saddened about their story because all their family wanted was for them to move to a safer place and start a new life but they weren't able to due to what happened to them.
4. Lasallians are known to always put God first, so as a lasallian, (1) I will pray for those who were affected by these unfortunate events, and may God bless their families and everyone else in the country to keep them safe from the war. (2) I will also be compassionate and do everything I can to help victims, such as donating. (3) Share this news to people via social media or simply by word so that they may also be able to lend a helping hand to those who've been affected.
5. I will share the news to social media so that more people will be aware and be able to help out, especially of they are closer/ have easier access to lending the refugees a helping hand.
6. I pledge to pray for these refugees and their families back home for them to be safe and away from harm.
7. The Aquino administration should help the affected people out because someday, when we need their help, they may return the favor.
8. I'll tell them to help out by maybe offering them a place to stay or donating, and simply praying for their safety.
9. Yes because i'd like to help out and it would make me feel so good and lighthearted to do something good for the sake of helping, and not doing it just to get something in return.
10. Almighty Father,
I pray for the souls of those who lost their lives because of this war, just like Aylan and his family and all the other people who were victimed. May you shower blessings onto everyone being affected and please help those who were badly affected by this incident.
Amen
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDeleteThe Government should be blamed.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I would advice them to let in the Syrian refugees because it is the right thing to do.Whenever our brothers and sisters are in need,we must do everything we can to help them.Although,they should be careful who they let in.I read an article wherein it said that the ISIS jihadists could be hiding among the Syrian refugees.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I feel sad and ashamed since the government of the country they were headed to didn't do anything to fetch them.They just left them there drowning.This is a very inhumane thing to do.Even if they wouldn't accept them in their country,might as well just help them get to shore then bring them to a safe place somewhere else.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
If ever there is a chance like a fund to save them,then I will donate as much money as I can.I can also show awareness to these by sharing articles about them through Face book and other social media since I am still a bit young and can't do much.Through this,more people who are old enough to help them will be aware.I can just pray for them and offer a mass for the Syrian refugees and other people who are affected.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
Since social media is a popular thing nowadays and a lot of powerful people use it,I could use it to show awareness.I will share,make petitions,etc. so that I can somehow help them indirectly.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I promise that whatever I do will help the refugees in any way possible.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
I advice the Aquino administration to do anything they can do to help these people.They could donate money or maybe accept some of them in our country.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I would advice them to accept these refugees into their home or maybe at least donate some money to provide for their basic needs.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
If given the chance,I would love to.This would make me happy and most of all,it would make God happy.Although,I would still take precaution since I do not know these people.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
God,our Almighty father,in behalf of the people who greatly affected Aylan and all the other refugees,I am truly sorry for all the sins they have committed.I am sure they did this for a reason.Thank you for the people who whole heartedly accepted and helped these refugees.Please take care of the other refugees and for the people who died.Amen

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I believe the terrorists should be blamed. It is because of them that the people are afraid.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I would tell them to open their doors. I would also ask them to do what they can so that peace will be restored and the people may regain their freedom.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
It saddens me bc they do not deserve it. They were simply trying to escape in order to gain back their freedom but they had to lose their lives before they can do so. It's sad bc Aylan was so young and he still had so much to experience in life.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
•be grateful for the freedom that we have and be loving to the people around us bc others do not have the things we have
•pray for those who are involved in this problem. prayer is very strong and it could go a long way
•donate and help make others aware of it
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
With the proper use of social media, we may make others more aware of what is happening. We can spread the word about it through the use of photos, videos and more.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to give time to pray, donate and support those who are in need of help
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
We must help these countries while we still can. We have our calling to do
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I will tell them to do what they can in order to help. They should open their homes for these people bc they are just afraid
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes. When we have the chance to do good, we must do it. These people all deserve to have a home and to feel safe.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear God,
Please guide the refugees most especially those in Syria. Please be with them, comfort them and keep them safe. Please continue to remind them that You are always by their side. I also pray that You be with Aylan's family and the families of the refugees who have lost their lives. Keep them strong and fill them with Your grace. Amen

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
- I think that the people who are to be blamed for this is those people who lack certain traits like empathy, compassion, and many other traits. These can be said about the terrorist groups like ISIS, they show no compassion and they seem to only want to do what they want and never consider the feelings of the Syrian people. They only think about themselves and that is what causes the lack of freedom and peace in their country.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
- The advice that I would give them is to think about the lives that are at stake and the many innocent people who are affected because of these events. These people are mostly children, they are the future, the new generation, and many of them are dying because of these events. Welcoming these refugees would mean giving a chance for these people to live safe and normal lives.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
- This greatly saddens me, they shouldn't have been treated that way. The government should've acted on evacuating these people to a safer place instead of them looking for other means of ways even through illegal smugglers.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- We should donate foods, clothes, and anything that we can offer so that we can help improve the condition Syria is in right now.
- If ever we encounter some of these Refugees we should be able to give them a place for shelter so that they can be safe.
- We should be able to give any medical treatment to those refugees who are injured, or have any other sickness.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
- We can create fundraisers through the many fundraising sites available in the internet also spreading the news that these events are happening and that they have a way to help.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
- I pledge to pray for those refugees, and that I would donate anything that they need in their time of need.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
- We should be able to house these refugees if no one else can house them. We need to help them as much as we can.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
- I would tell them that if they encounter any refugees, they should be able to give them at least something that could help them survive.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
- Yes, I'am willing to adopt them. I want to help them because they have no other place to stay and we should be able to do what we can for them.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
- Dear Lord, please help those people who are struggling, especially those who are in Syria. Please guide those refugees and watch over Aylan's family as they are struggling as well. Please continue to be there for them at this very crucial time. Amen.
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDelete- In my opinion I think the government of Syria should be blamed.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
- my best advice for them would be to try and do their best to help these Syrian people and try to imagine themselves in the position the Syrian refugees are in, so that they can at least try to do their best in helping out these people.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
- Im shocked and sad because the only thing Aylan's family wanted was a new beginning/a new life. Now because of this war, what they hoped to be a dream turned into a nightmare.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- As a Lasallian basically what I can do is just spread the word of God and do good, even if it's just small acts of kindness I know I would mean a lot to others especially the unfortunate, the disabled, and etc.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
- I can use social media to share and spread the word of the events happening right now in Syria. Through this more people can see what is happening there and hopefully through this a lot of people can offer help to the Syrians.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
- I pledge to try and do my best in spreading the word and trying to do my best in any possible way I can to help these Syrian refugees.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
- What I would advice the Aquino administration to do is to be an active participant in helping these Syrian refugees recover and also try tell them to make/talk to other countries into helping these refugees.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
- I would tell them what is happening and I would advice them to try to help in anyway possible way they can.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
- Yes, I am willing to adopt a child from these refugees. It is because knowing what they've been through already they only did it for a good cause which was to try and start a new life a life in which their children would possibly have a better future.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
- Dear God, I pray for the souls of all the Syrians affected by this war. May you always give them the strength, hope, and knowledge that they need to get through this big obstacle in their life they're facing right now. May you always bless and guide them in all the thing they do especially right now. Lastly may they have a better and brighter future especially for the children. Amen.
Antonio Ramos J-H
ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
I think that the people who are to be blamed for this are the terrorists who can't seem to leave people alone. They only think about themselves and that is what causes the destruction of freedom and peace in Syria
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I would ask them to take these people in, mostly children, they are the future, the new generation, and many of them are dying because of these event. Taking these refugees would mean giving a chance for these people to live safe lives.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
It's truly sad that people lack compassion and intelligence to share what they have, when a government fails to act, their people suffer. And the people resort to more desperate means.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
• donate as much as we can
• Offer refuge to the refugees
• Allow them to live and grow with our community first
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
The internet holds many people who are willing to raise awareness and help the people who are in need. Through social media we are able to reach the people in need.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to pray and hope for the best for the refugees, and should the Philippines be able to help hand in hand, I will volunteer.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
Open our doors and help them to live first in the Philippines, we have many open condos, ask the government to ask help from the private owners of these such buildings.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I would ask them to plead or at least raise awareness in their respective countries. They should be open to helping out these people.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
I would, they deserve better than drowning because of selfishness. I'd like to see that they are helped out properly and in that case, in my care.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear Lord, open the eyes of those ignorant enough to not help the needy and those seeking refuge. While that is happening give the people who are suffering a fighting chance and let the weather and all other factors be with them, making them able to reach the shores of other countries with open arms. Amen.
ReplyDelete1. In my opinion it is all ISIS fault because all they do is destroy lives. The Syrian people are trying their best but the ISIS shows no mercy and this is wrong.
2. I think the European Countries should just pray for their warriors, and when they return home the people and government should just say a small thank you to them. Also they should pray for these people because these soldiers are sacrificing theirs lives for these people.
3. I am saddened by this because Aylans family wanted to start a new life in a different country but they ended up dying. I hope they have a good life in heaven.
4. As A Lasallian, I cannot do much but first of all I will pray, and in my own small ways I will treat the other people the way I want them to treat me. And lastly I will follow the laws so that maybe other people will follow these rules as well.
5. In social media I can make a blog about these problems so that I can spread the word for everyone to help save lives.
6. I pledge to try and be a good person and spread the word about these Syrian people.
7. I can tell the Aquino administration to send help to help the Syrians because that is the right thing to do.
8. I will tell my relatives to pray and have faith that the lord will protect them.
9. Yes because that is the right thing to do and they need help so I will help.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear God please help these Syrian people be free and safe from harm because they are good people and forgive them from all their sins. Amen
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDeleteI think that the Syrians are bred to be very vocal in their beliefs and so they argue on many matters such as their freedom. The government of Syria, being hard-headed to their principles and wanted to keep their traditional concepts of system of governance, cannot keep peace to their constituents. I also believe that money, greediness and power are the main causes of their crisis.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
Mercy and compassion as our Pope Francis always reminds us all. Many of these refugees are innocent or the victims, especially the children. Why can't a rich continent like Europe, spare their unproductive lands to be tilled by the refugees, so that even afar they can also be productive.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
This is the consequence of war, however, to die because of escape from crisis, hoping that you'll find peace to the other side yet it was a lost hope and this was very devastating.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
A. To ask peace movement from different countries and United Nation to interfere with securing say among the people of the world, especially the children.
B. To come up with a foundation, to gather funds from all Lasallians, NGO's and religions group to reach out to the refugees.
C. To continue to pray for peace and order in Syria. To ask the Vatican to help every nation and to lead a prayer for peace all over the world.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
To continue updating ourselves through Internet or social media and reacting positively with a sincerest objective to help awaken the world.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
You are not forgotten, I pledge to offer my morning prayers to all the victims, someday if we will unite I prayers, the sun may shine upon us all.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
It is good to help the refugees, into our country, like the Vietnam victims but at a certain point only, because there are many Filipinos who are impoverished and need attention and care for their surroundings.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I will advice them to give whatever they can afford but let the OFWs in Europe contribute, donate and reach out out to the refugees.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
To adopt a kid, it will make me happy, but I think I will go and adopt a Filipino refugee not because I don't care but I think that charity begins at home. I'll just contribute to a foundation that re helping them.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear Lord,
Let there be peace on earth!
Lord, touch the hearts of the people so they can help the refugees. Don't let another "Alyan" event happen again. You said seek and you'll find, knock and it shall be opened, I'm knocking Lord in Your heart to help all the victims and all to those who are suffering. Don't let them lose hope. God! Save us from all evil. Amen.
1. The ISIS because they forced them out of their own country.
ReplyDelete2. Welcome them because they are damaged. They lost a lot and now they risk everything to get to you to seek your protection. Accept them because Jesus would do the same.
3. It's very sad because Aylan had a whole life ahead of him. A whole life with his brother and mother.
4. Make people aware of this, pray for them and try to convince people to do the right thing.
5. Spread the word about how these refugees lost everything and how they risk their lives to get to these European countries and yet are treated like a threat.
6. I would pledge to do everything I can to help out these people.
7. I would advise them to use the money they stole from the country to help those refugees.
8. I would advise them to welcome them with open arms because the refugees have lost a lot and what they need now is a sign that the world hasn't given up on them.
9. Yes because it's what Jesus would tell me to do and it is what would help send a message to the world that we need to start doing the right thing.
10. Lord please look after these people who have lost almost everything. Please lead them into the arms of people who would give them love and care. Show us the right thing to do and lead us to the path where all refugees are safe. AMEN.
Sanchez, Juan Miguel Aquino

1. I blame the Syrian government because they have the responsibility to take care of their nation.
2. Welcome them so we have freedom.
3. Im very sad for them.

6. Let's pray for the people who died for freedom.
7. Spread awareness and accept everyone since we are all children of God.
8. Stay away from trouble and just pray for the people.
9. Yes, because we must learn to accept everyone.
10. God please help everyone to learn to accept everybody and give the people who died a happy life in heaven. Amen

ReplyDelete1. The people who should be blamed are the government and their corrupted ways. The Syrian people were to given the oppoutunity to act out and protect themselves because they would get hurt or worse, killed. The refugees were not welcomed and suffered.
2. I would tell the European governments to give these refugees equal treatment. In God's eyes, we are all equal. I would inform them that they have no right to treat them badly and overpower these poor refugees. Also, these refugees can be useful to the government and can contribute to the society.
3. I find it very cruel and unfair to these refugees who were killed and badly hurt, when they did nothing wrong to the European government. As children of God, we must treat each other with the love and respect we show to our Lord. This crisis serves as a lesson to the corrupt governments and war-torn countries. We learn that we must use our freedom wisely and for the greater good.
4. As Lasallian students, the most effective solution to do to address this problem is by starting small. First, I would increase my knowledge about the situation and inform others about the occuring problem. Next, it would be a good idea to create an organization to make outreaches and give donations to those affected by this issue. Another action i can act upon is to be a good role model to others, so that they may be able to exercise true freedom and be good Christians.
5. Social media is indeed a powerful tool nowadays. The use of social media can further inform people who can create a big impact to fix this world problem. By posting posters, stories and pledges about these refugees, can catch the attention of all these social media users to be able to create a change within themselves, and their community as well.
6. I pledge to use my freedom for the greater good of my neighbors.
7. If i were given the chance to give advice to the Aquino Administration, i would suggest to create a campaign that promotes peace with our neighboring countries. The best thing we can do is to avoid situations like this in the future and become good citizens for God and our country.
8. I would tell them to be more aware about their safety because these situations can happen at any time. I would also tell them that they must stand up to their governments for them to instill peace in their communites, instead of creating fights and wars.
9. I would definitely adopt these refugees if i had the chance. I would take any chance that would help these poor families and give them the life they deserve. Since we are all brothers and sisters, I would help these refugees by showing my genuine love and concern for their well-being.
10. Almighty Father, we praise and glorify You. May you guide the European government to make better choices and treat others equally. May you give them a chance to change for the better and repent for all the wrong things they have done. May you also give strength to the refugees and their families who were affected by this problem. I pray that these countries may find peace with each other and learn how to use their freedom wisely. Amen.

Dear God,
Please keep these refugees safe from harm and help them experience your true privalge of freedom please improve the condition of thier country soon so they will stop suffering and also please help the community to be open to help them
AMEN
1. The leaders of the country are to be held responsible for the crisis since they are tasked to rule the country and they were not to eliminate the threats in their society.
ReplyDelete2. I would advice them to just let the refugees stay near the border if they are not willing to let them in their country. They could also offer some relief goods but it would be best to let them in because they arent leaving in search of jobs or a mean of earning money but they are doing it to protect their lives.
3. I feel like Aylan's death and other refugees could've been avoided if only people are more considerate and conscious of their choices.
4. First, I would pray for all the Syrians especially the refugees. Secondly, I would spread awareness through the use of social media. Thirdly, I would promote peace and love in the community.
5. I will utilize my use of social media by spreading awareness and will continue fighting for their rights.
6. I will continue to support the fighting for the rights of the Syrians because they are in need of all the help they can get. I will not let people forget what they are going through.
7. I would recommend the Aquino administration to acknowledge the issue and spread awareness as well. I think they should also raise funds so that they may contribute in any way to help the refugees.
8. I would tell them to be safe. I would ask them to fight for the refugees and not be affected by the media.
9. Yes because they are running away from danger and if i could help i would.
10.
Lord, I ask that you may watch over all the Syrian refugees as they go through this difficult task. I pray that there may be kind souls to be able to help and provide a safe place for them. I pray that this issue may be resolved through a peaceful manner and without anymore casualties. This I ask Lord almighty. Amen.
Seatwork#2 answers of Boccone (JH)
ReplyDelete1. The President of the Syrian people, President Bashar al-Assad, should be the one to blame. He is the one who is not listening to his people. He knows that he is abusing his position, but he is too greedy to step down.
2. What is happening to the European countries is very difficult. They have to either accept refugees or to reject them. I understand why they wouldn't accept as many people as they could simply because there are too many people and that it is hard to control a people from a whole different country. I would just suggest the EU to combined forces and help support the refugees by slowly accepting them into certain countries.
3.When I saw the number of photos streaming through Facebook of the washed up bodies of both young and old refugees, I was devastated. The world is in so much trouble as it is from global a warming to ISIS. I didn't want to hear or see any more suffering in the world because there is so much crisis already. Those pictures of the many bodies found on the shores are just unforgettable. This shows how much freedom means to so many people.
4. I could do 3 simple yet effective actions that may help influence others and these are to pray more for the would who are in purgatory, to support the refugees in charity, and to hopefully in the future become a representative of a humanist for many countries especially war-torn ones.
5. Through social media, I could provide vital information about what is happening to the refugees in the European countries and how they are coping. I would also promote peace and freedom for these refugees
6. I pledge that I will help in anyway I can the Syrian people and the people who live in war-torn counties in the future. I may not have a promise as of now because I am a student, but I have always wanted to help people most especially children of the Middle East, Africa, and other countries. But for certain, I will always remember and pray for all the refugees.
7. I would suggest that Aquino should not accept too many refugees because as it is we are overpopulated. It would be effective if the government should support these people by sending them donations and money that may be very vital for their lives.
8. I would suggest that they may offer money to organizations who are in charge of taking care of these people. It is safer and a better option to provide support through finance than trying to help a family when you have your own family to provide for.
9. I would want to adopt a child (if I have enough money), but I would prefer to help a family. I would support a family financially and give them a place to stay. I wouldn't want to have to separate a child from his/her family because I couldn't support the whole family.
10. Dear Lord, Please bless the souls of those who have died at a very young age like Aylan. He didn't deserve to die, but you brought him into your kingdom because you knew that he deserved his place with you. Please bless all those poor souls who are searching for you, Lord. Please forgive the many sins committed by the Syrian refugees who are fighting for their freedom, because their lives may be taken away and they wish to reach heaven as soon as possible to end their suffering. Let Syria and the other countries that have major problems come to peace and may their people live together in unity. Amen.

ReplyDelete1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
In my opinion, everyone is to blame. Everyone involved have some shortcomings. However, the government is the most at fault. They are being unfair, callous, harsh to the innocent lives involved. A sin of omission is just as bad as firing the first shot.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
If I got a chance to talk to an official involved in this issue, I would tell them to reflect. There are children living in that area. Thousands of people are dying just because you are not allowing these refugees to come. They are communists. Just because they believe that these refugees could not contribute to their economy, they refuse to help them. The government is afraid to lose the power. They sees the refugees as threats instead of people in need of help.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
I am disgusted by how Aylan died. All his family wanted was to see a better life, yet he lost his life just because people saw them as a threat. A lot of people are dying, yet Europe isn't helping. Why aren't they? What's so wrong about helping those who need us?
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
First of all, we should be aware. We need to care and understand the details and progression of this issue.
Second, spread what you know to others. The bigger the issue, the more people will care.
Lastly, try to do something to help those refugees. Adopt one if you are capable.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
Social media plays a big part in today's generation. Majority of the world's population have social media accounts. One trending tag from Twitter or one pinned post on Pinterest could make it go viral. I'd like to believe that the numerous tweets, shares and media coverage the picture of Aylan caught our attention. Because of Aylan's unfortunate incident, we are now aware of the bigger problem happening.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to care. The next time I'll see a picture or tweet about the problem happening regarding the refugees, I promise to share it. They should not be ignore anymore.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
If I got the chance to talk to the President of the Republic of the Philippines, I would firmly ask him to help. Our country should get involved; not in the war but in the change. We could adopt these refugees in our country. We shouldn't have a communistic point of view. We should help them because they need us.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I would want them to take a stand. Convince the European government to help out. The refugees need help, and as children of God we should.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Of course; they need my help. They need a safe environment to live in. I would want to offer as much as I could.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Father Almighty, Bless Aylan and all those who have fallen because of this issue. Forgive them for what they have done, and let them enter your kingdom. Also, kindly give hope to those who are helpless. You are our God and you do everything for a purpose. We are all your children and we shall trust you, whole heartedly, with our body and soul. Amen.

10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
-Almight Father, I ask that you keep all the refugees safe and guide them through their journey. They continue to struggle everyday and they need your guidance and blessings to get to a better place. Please also bless the souls who have been killed through these awful events and hopefully no one needs to go through this ever again. Amen.
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDeleteThe ISIS because they are the ones threatening the lives of the people of Syria.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries? They should at least know what it feels like to be shunned by everyone else. Just because they aren't involved in this matter doesn't mean that they shouldn't care.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe? They were heroic in their own they since even if they died before reaching Europe, it raised awareness and let people know about the crisis happening.

The least I could do is to spread and raise awareness and help like donating.

7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
If other countries can't, then maybe our country can do what they can't do. Donate financially.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
They should show empathy and help even if their government wont.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Even if I want. I am not responsible enough to take care of a child. But I would be happy for people who are willing to adopt.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
God, please shower us with your blessing and mercy and help everyone who is suffering from the despairs of war. Give them guidance and protection to keep safe from danger. Also light up the hearts of people so that they would realize how hard it is for the refugees to live everyday and help as much as they can. Amen.
1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
ReplyDelete- I believe that the blame should be taken by the government. They do not provide the right safety and security to their people, that's why they are all fleeing their country.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
- Have pity and mercy for these people who are innocent and do not have any fault other than being born into a country where war happens.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
- That wouldn't of have happened if their country wasn't war struck, and if the governments weren't so strict. All they wanted was a chance of having a better life, and they were simply passing through and not trying to go and live in that specific country.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
- Possibly adopt a child until the DSWD can find a better home for the child
- Host fundraising events and donate the money to the right NGOs addressing the cause
- Create an online forum wherein we can find contacts for people who can share their opinions, thus allowing people to empathise with them and possibly create a platform for globalisation regarding this topic.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
- I will create forums, blogs, and using my own personal social media accounts to express facts that are more important than the media being advertise now such as how large the bum of a Kardashian is.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I will, in my own capabilities, try to inform as much people as i can regarding this topic to be able to spread awareness to those willing to help through donations or adoptions.

Stay safe in times of adversities, do not travel to these places, and try to support the cause of helping these people.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes, because these people deserve to have good lives. No matter what background or social class, Humans are bestowed with rights that are not only given by God but are supported by law.

Lord we humbly ask that these people be saved, that they may live wonderful lives and find peace after this horrible event in their life. These we ask in Jesus name. Amen.
1.The blame should be taken by the leader there since they didn't take charge and didn't provide enough to to avoid war which makes the war their responsibility.
ReplyDelete2.Just for once feel mercy for these refugees and accept them in your country just to care for them while they heal because this is what God would have done.

1. In your own opinion, who should be blamed for the crisis on lack of freedom and peace among the Syrian people?
In my opinion, the government of Syria and it's terrorists groups are the ones to blame. The government shows lack of care and does not put any effort in trying to restore the peace and freedom they all deserve. Also, these terrorist groups bring nothing but fear and evilness from all the things they do which does not promote peacefulness and unity.
2. What best advice can you give towards the European governments who are indifferent in welcoming these refugees from war-torn countries?
I would advice them to help these people because they deserve to be safe and protected. It is important to treat everyone equally.
3. What are your thoughts about Aylan, his mother and brother who died from this crisis and the many other refugees who died before reaching Europe?
It saddens me how people can just let this happen. Can't believe people can be so selfish to the point where they really don't care about other peoples lives.
4. As Lasallians, what 3 concrete actions/solutions you can do to address this world problem?
I will base my answer with the Lasallian Core Values---
>Being Christian: We can always pray for these people. Anything is possible through His strength.
>Contributes to Society: We should reach out and help these people through small activities that can spread awareness. Not much are aware of this sad situation and if more will know then we can all work together to help them.
>Capable of Leading: We need to set an example. An example of being selfless and putting others before us. This can lead many to do the same and the sad situation can be prevented.
5. How can you utilize social media in making a difference to the lives of these millions of refugees who are still aiming for a peaceful, free and quiet lives?
Social Media is really being used everyday by everyone. A simple post to spread awareness can make a difference. If others know about the situation then we can all work together to help.
6. What legit, sincere and serious ONE PLEDGE can you do or promise with regard to your post in your facebook or twitter or other social media that will help alleviate the pains and sufferings of these refugees?
I pledge to help and support those people who are doing their best to fix this situations and the refugees.
7. What advice can you give to the Aquino administration to address this problem?
My advice to the government is that we should have the initiative to help these people. Why not help if we've got things that can really make a difference to their lives.
8. If you have relatives in Europe what advice will you tell them regarding this problem about the refugees?
I'd tell them that problems like this should be treated right away. We see the problem and we must help right away. Also, let's not forget to open our arms to our brothers and sisters. We are all equal human beings.
9. If given the chance, are you willing to adopt a kid or a family from these refugees? Why?
Yes, I have definitely nothing to lose and I should spread nothing but love to these refugees for what they've been through.
10. Make a short prayer for the welfare of Aylan and all the refugees in the world.
Dear Lord,
We praise you for you are the reason we are all here today. Sorry for being blind and selfish to situations or problems like these. Please help us see and recognize the problem truly and may you give us the strength to do our very best to help and love these people.
Amen.
