𝑨𝑽𝑪𝑻𝑨 𝑬𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑶𝑹𝑰𝑨𝑳 𝑩𝑶𝑨𝑹𝑫,
ᴿᵉᵖᵒʳᵗⁱⁿᵍ

Today, we join millions of well wishers to celebrate not only the birthday of 𝑫𝒓 𝑴𝒐𝒔𝒆𝒔 𝑨𝒅𝒆𝒃𝒐𝒍𝒖 𝑨𝑫𝑬𝑻𝑼𝑵𝑴𝑩𝑰, but also a life and a man who embodied wisdom, compassion, and leadership qualities that makes him a father figure to all his students and an esteemed Church historian.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐁𝐋𝐄 𝐌𝐎𝐒𝐄𝐒 𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐁𝐎𝐋𝐔 𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐓𝐔𝐍𝐌𝐁𝐈, 𝑷𝒉𝑫, 𝑱𝑷, is a man whose life is dedicated to education and to the well-being of every student who walked through the doors of his tutelage. 𝑩𝒂𝒃𝒂 is more than just a Rector and Lecturer; he is a guiding light, offering mentorship and support to everyone of us in his care. His office since attaining the role of a Rector of the college is always open, a safe haven where any students could seek guidance, share their dreams, or simply find a listening ear. He has an extraordinary ability to see potential in each of us, encouraging us to pursue our passions and reach for our goals.

Our Father’s contributions so far to academia extends beyond his role as a leader. As a Church historian, 𝑫𝒂𝒅𝒅𝒚 𝑨𝒅𝒆𝒕𝒖𝒏𝒎𝒃𝒊 passionately explore on a daily basis the rich tapestry of our faith’s history, sharing his insights with the students always. His lectures were not just lessons; they were invitations to explore the depths of our beliefs and understand the foundations of our faith. His love for history was infectious, igniting a curiosity in all of us to learn more and delve deeper into our shared heritage. He treats every student as his own child, celebrating our successes and comforting us in our failures. He teaches us that education is not just about academics; it’s about building a community grounded in love, respect, and support.

As a Theologian and Liturgist that he is, His knowledge of our liturgy is vast, and he shares it with such enthusiasm that it was impossible not to be captivated. Through his lectures and discussions, he teaches us to appreciate our heritage and our roots, to learn from great liturgists, and to apply those lessons in our services to be great worship leaders. He has a unique ability to connect historical events to our present realities, reminding us of the essence of being able to conduct any service well and be the best in our vocation and calling.
We can not forget that quote of yours, “𝑨 𝑷𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒎𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒃𝒆 𝑪𝒐𝒓𝒓𝒆𝒄𝒕, 𝑨𝒓𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑪𝒖𝒓𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒕”

On this auspicious occasion of your birth anniversary, we wish you God’s blessings and abundant grace from God. We pray that the Lord will continue to strengthen you in this assignment, may you not fail nor falter, may the Lord continue to crown your efforts with great success and may you continue to be relevant in our church and in our world and generation.
