On January 17, 2026, Abraham C. Domingo Chapter No. 70, Order of DeMolay, proudly celebrated its 31st Public Installation at Isabela State University – Cauayan Campus. The ceremony marked another milestone in the Chapter’s rich history, as members, families, alumni, Masonic brethren, and distinguished guests gathered to witness the installation of the newly elected officers for the ensuing term.
The installation formally entrusted the leadership of the Chapter to Charles Vic Rian Cacabelos, who was installed as Master Councilor. Joining him in service are Greggy Isidro as Senior Councilor, Morise Diza as Junior Councilor, Juan Yosmar Corachea as Treasurer, and Lucky Aceret as Scribe. Together with the rest of the elected and appointed officers, they pledged to faithfully uphold the teachings and principles of the Order of DeMolay.
The ceremony served as a meaningful reminder of the Order’s Seven Cardinal Virtues—filial love, reverence for sacred things, courtesy, comradeship, fidelity, cleanness, and patriotism. As each officer assumed his responsibilities, he committed himself to leading with integrity, humility, and a genuine desire to serve both the Chapter and the community.
The 31st Public Installation not only celebrated the beginning of a new term but also reaffirmed the enduring bond of brotherhood that unites every DeMolay. With renewed dedication and a shared vision, the newly installed officers are prepared to lead Abraham C. Domingo Chapter No. 70 toward another successful year of leadership development, meaningful service, and continued excellence.
I would also like to express my heartfelt gratitude to my family for their unwavering love, guidance, and constant support throughout my journey. Their encouragement and sacrifices have been my greatest source of strength, motivating me to overcome challenges and pursue my goals with determination. Without them, many of my achievements would not have been possible. I would also like to extend my deepest appreciation to Precious Viernes for being my constant source of inspiration and encouragement as Master Councilor. Thank you for always being there, for believing in me even during difficult times, and for reminding me that I was never alone. I am truly grateful to have shared this meaningful journey with you.
Congratulations to the newly installed officers of Abraham C. Domingo Chapter No. 70! May your leadership inspire others, strengthen the bonds of brotherhood, and uphold the timeless ideals of the Order of DeMolay.
