Praise be and Praises to all!
Look at how we've grown. This past year 2011, we have gone through a lot, and we have grown a lot. We have grown in size with each new family member that joins our community; we have grown in experience with each game, event, and project that we undertake. And with all growth comes growing pains and growing joys. John Maxwell said it best:

This is very true even for us. We may play games, beat each other up in the games we participate in, but in each endeavor comes challenges. And what did we do to the challenges that we faced in 2011? We overcame them - with style! This has been the way of the light ever since, and we will continue this "tradition" in 2012. Many have stepped up to the challenge and lead the family to greatness this past year, 2011. Drew Alcantara alongside our very active young Keepers, JM Martinez and Curby Cepeda, guided by our ancient Keeper Hoseah have done a lot, and we will always be thankful for their contribution and future contributions to the projects that we undertake.
They couldn't have done it without the help of the industrious family members who aided them during the Habitat for Humanity, LU! Live projects, and T-Shirt projects. And we look to these people to show more of what they can do this 2012 for this year is a year for more opportunities, more challenges and more success for each and everyone of us, and for the guild as a whole.
There are a lot of games to be released this year so we expect more growth. Let us all welcome new friends together and invite them as family. Let us show them how a HolyOrder member is; let us show them what a gaming family is.
2012 is year of hope. 2012 is the year for the light to shine even brighter. Let us fly through this year and walk over adversity TOGETHER.
In behalf of the Keepers, we thank everyone for a spectacular 2011! And we know that 2012 will be even more exciting, even more spectacular, and even more astounding with YOU, our family, working together, playing together, and succeeding together.
God bless us all
and...
LET'S GET IT ON!
