Manuel Luis Quezon: Paggunita sa Ika-148 Anibersaryo ng Kapanganakan
Isang Pagpupugay mula sa Manuel Luis Quezon Lohiya Blg. 78-Malayang Orden ng mga Kapatid na Odd Fellows (Independent Order of Odd Fellows)

Noong Agosto 19, 2026, ginunita ang ika-148 anibersaryo ng kapanganakan ni Manuel Luis Quezon, isang dakilang anak ng Tayabas—ang lalawigang kalaunan ay pinangalanang Quezon—at ang unang Pangulo ng Commonwealth ng Pilipinas.

Si Manuel Luis Quezon ay hindi lamang isang dating Pangulo ng bansa. Bago niya narating ang pinakamataas na katungkulan sa pamahalaan, nagsimula ang kanyang pampublikong paglilingkod sa lokal na pamayanan. Sa kasaysayan ng Lucena, iniuugnay ang kanyang unang karanasan sa buhay bilang Isang Lingkod bayan sa Ilayang Dupay, kung saan siya ay kinikilalang naging Cabeza de Barangay. Ang Ilayang Dupay ay nananatiling bahagi ng Lucena City hanggang sa kasalukuyan.

Mula sa mga unang hakbang na ito sa lokal na pamamahala, umunlad ang kanyang karera sa serbisyo publiko. Kabilang sa mga posisyong iniuugnay sa kanyang maagang karera ang pagiging municipal councilor ng Lucena, bago siya naging Gobernador ng Lalawigan ng Tayabas. Mula rito ay patuloy siyang umakyat sa pambansang larangan ng politika at pamahalaan hanggang sa maging unang Pangulo ng Commonwealth ng Pilipinas.

Ang kanyang paglalakbay—mula sa isang lokal na pamayanan sa Lucena hanggang sa pamumuno sa buong Commonwealth—ay nagsisilbing paalala na ang dakilang paglilingkod sa bayan ay maaaring magsimula sa maliit na pamayanan at lumawak hanggang sa pambansang antas.

Paggunita ng Manuel Luis Quezon Lohiya Blg. 78

Bilang pagkilala sa buhay, pamana, at paglilingkod ni Manuel Luis Quezon, ipinagdiwang ng Manuel Luis Quezon Lohiya Blg. 78– Malayang Orden ng mga Kapatid na Odd Fellows (Independent Order of Odd Fellows)ang kanyang ika-148 anibersaryo ng kapanganakan.

Ang pagdiriwang ay pinangunahan ng aming Karapat-dapat na Punong Maharlika, Kapatid na Russell Wendell M. Dionido II, kasama ang Karapat-dapat na Dating Punong Maharlika, Kapatid na Romano Franco C. Talaga, at ng mga kapatid na Patriarka mula sa Aryeh Yehudah Encampment Blg. 14.

Ang paggunita ay hindi lamang isang pagdiriwang ng kaarawan ng isang dating Pangulo. Ito ay pagpapahayag ng pagkilala sa isang taong ang buhay ay naging huwaran ng paglilingkod sa bayan, pamumuno, pagmamahal sa bayan, at pagkamakabayan—mga pagpapahalagang patuloy ding isinusulong ng Malayang Orden ng mga Kapatid na Odd Fellows (Independent Order of Odd Fellows)

Banal na Misa

Sinimulan ang programa sa pamamagitan ng isang Banal na Misa, sa pangunguna ng Lubhang Kagalang-galang Mel Rey M. Uy, D.D., Obispo ng Lucena, kasama sina Lubhang Kagalang-galang Euginius L. Cañete, MJ, D.D., Obispo ng Gumaca, at Lubhang Kagalang-galang Emilio Z. Marquez, D.D., Obispo Emerito ng Lucena, kasama ang mga kaparian ng Diyosesis ng Lucena at Diyosesis ng Gumaca.

Ang pagdiriwang na ito ay nagbigay ng isang mahalagang pagkakataon upang ipagdasal at gunitain ang buhay ng isang lider na nag-iwan ng malaking marka sa kasaysayan ng Pilipinas.

Pag-aalay ng Bulaklak sa Bantayog ni Manuel Luis Quezon

Matapos ang Banal na Misa ay sinundan ito ng pag-aalay ng bulaklak sa Bantayog ni Manuel Luis Quezon.

Ang seremonyang ito ay bahagi ng taunang gawain ng Manuel Luis Quezon Lohiya Blg. 78, bilang pagpapakita ng patuloy na paggalang at pagkilala sa kontribusyon ni Quezon sa kasaysayan ng Lucena, ng dating Lalawigan ng Tayabas, at higit sa lahat, ng buong Pilipinas.

Ang bantayog ay higit pa sa isang monumento. Ito ay nagsisilbing paalala na ang isang taong naging Pangulo ng isang bansa ay minsang nagsimula bilang isang lingkod ng isang lokal na pamayanan. Sa Ilayang Dupay (bahagi ng Lucena), iniuugnay ng lokal na kasaysayan ang unang yugto ng kanyang pampublikong buhay sa pamumuno at paglilingkod sa komunidad.

Ang Pangalan ng Aming Lohiya

Ang Taon-taon paggunita ay higit na makahulugan para sa mga kasapi ng Manuel Luis Quezon Lohiya Blg. 78, sapagkat ang pangalan ni Manuel Luis Quezon ang aming piniling maging pangalan ng aming samahan.

Hindi lamang namin siya ginugunita bilang isang dating Pangulo ng bansa. Ginugunita namin siya bilang isang lingkod-bayan at pinuno na nagsimula sa lokal na pamayanan, naglingkod sa pamahalaang panlalawigan, at kalaunan ay nanguna sa buong bansa.

Sa bawat pag-aalay ng bulaklak, sa bawat panalangin, at sa bawat paggunita sa kanyang kaarawan, ipinapahayag namin ang aming paninindigan na ang paglilingkod sa kapwa at sa bayan ay isang mahalagang pamana na dapat pangalagaan, isabuhay, at ipagpatuloy ng bawat salinlahi.

Ang kanyang pangalan ay hindi lamang nakaukit sa pangalan ng aming samahan. Ito ay nagsisilbing paalala sa aming mga kasapi ng tungkuling maglingkod nang may dangal, malasakit, pagkakapatiran, at pagmamahal sa bayan.

MANUEL LUIS QUEZON
Cabeza de Barangay – Ilayang Dupay, Lucena
Municipal Councilor – Lucena
Governor – Province of Tayabas
First President – Philippine Commonwealth

Mula Ilayang Dupay, hanggang Tayabas, at hanggang sa Malacañang, ang kanyang buhay ay naging bahagi ng malaking kuwento ng paglilingkod at pamumuno sa Pilipinas.

Sa ika-148 anibersaryo ng kanyang kapanganakan, buong pagpapakumbaba at pagmamalaki naming inaalala ang kanyang pangalan at pamana.

Mabuhay ang alaala ni Manuel Luis Quezon!

Mabuhay ang Lucena!
Mabuhay ang Quezon Province!
Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!

In Brotherhood. In Service. In Remembrance.
