On Nov. 23, 2024, the St. Matthew Province marked opening of the Second Year of Triennium of Preparation for the 50th annivesary of the Rogationist mission in the Philippines, with the theme Bukas-Palad (Open Hands = charity), held at the Rogationist College Cavite. The day began bright and early with a motorcade that started at the Acienda Mall and ended at the school campus. This was followed by breakfast to ensure physical preparation, and a short break to compose oneself and focus on the continuation of the program.
