GMA Network ushers in the holiday spirit with the official launch of its 2023 Christmas Station ID, “Feeling Blessed Ngayong Pasko!” The message is a simple and beautiful reminder of the season’s true essence: loving one another and being a blessing to each other.
Empathy, generosity, and selflessness are at the heart of this year’s theme. In the holiday video, beloved Kapuso stars and personalities shine a light on everyday folk – giving themselves to their families and respective communities in ways big and small.
First seen on November 5 in All-Out Sundays, the Christmas video showcases some of the country’s biggest names in entertainment, news, and public affairs led by Dingdong Dantes, Marian Rivera, Alden Richards, Michael V., Heart Evangelista, Bea Alonzo, Barbie Forteza, Dennis Trillo, Mel Tiangco, Vicky Morales, and Jessica Soho. The video begins with them encouraging everyone to appreciate their blessings and pay it forward with love.
The video spotlights everyday individuals, such as delivery rider Elmer Mallanao, whose hard work saw his daughter graduate cum laude. RM Capillas left his BPO career to care for his foster father, Avelino. Pharmacist Arshie Larga gives back by providing free medicine. Bernadeta Zamora’s life was saved by nursing students Angyl Fayth Ababat and Kristianne Joice Noelle Ona. Meanwhile, Michael Kimuell, a dedicated jeepney driver, offers free rides when passengers are short on fare.
The network also paid tribute to veteran broadcaster Mike Enriquez by remembering his generosity. He was the biggest donor of the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Abandoned in Santa Ana, Manila.
As Christmas approaches, GMA Network encourages everyone to find blessedness and gratitude in their lives.
