The Complete Substitute for All Forms of Sociability

Last April 8-10, the company went out for some much deserved break. This year, they decided to hold the company outing at Hagnaya Beach Resort and Restaurant in San Remegio, Cebu. The place is excellent. Although the beach isn't great (the sand isn't white and it's kinda muddy because it's a mangrove area), the resort doesn't lack facilities.

The new church building stands a few steps away.
