Sis. Rose is a Batch 4 graduate of CLSS in 1993 and has remained faithful since then. She is connected to a leading appraisal company and business consulting firm in Makati City. Sis. Rose is inspired by the saying “Great works are performed not by strength but by perseverance.” She starts the day with a prayer “Lord, may I glorify You in whatever I do, wherever I am.” She is always reminded of Prov. 3:4-5 – “Trust in the Lord with all your hearts, and do not rely on your own insight. In all your ways, acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”
