PHILIPPINES—Philippines member Cliff Ransom Wendell Lilangan received two international awards in 2022: “Asia’s Outstanding Educator of the Year” and ” Most Outstanding Innovative Leader and Educator.” These accolades were conferred by two different international organizations that recognize professional men and women who show “outstanding qualities, excellence, highest moral standards, honesty, civic accountability, and social responsibility.”

The first award came during Thanksgiving week while the second around the 2022 youth camp in Australia.

“I am deeply thankful to God because this was really out of the blue, happening almost simultaneously,” said Lilangan. “These laurels inspire me to work even harder as my way of appreciation and gratitude to God.”
