Dear lord,
One year is about to end
Since you had made me a steward
Of a noble duty and responsibility...
For the LGU Agri-Extension Workers, the farmers, the rural women,
the youth, the indigenous people, and the farmer-scientists
Because of your concern for them,
You mandated me to teach appropriate skills and technologies,
and entrepreneurial capabilities,
You asked me to organize them or strengthen their organizations;
You asked me to instill in them the value of dignified labor,
the attainment of best craftsmanship, and
the concerned individuals who care for their neighbors;
Dear Lord,
As I look back today
I hoped I contributed even a little
in attaining the cry of my beloved people
and the vision of my agency
“Walang Pilipinong magugutom sa sariling bayan”
