How does one become a member of Bukas Palad?
Currently, membership in Bukas Palad is by invitation Any of the members are qualified to suggest a potential recruit. One’s “worth” has already been proven by virtue of being a member, hence the validity of his/her suggestion is never in question. The members then try to find out if potential recruits are interested in joining the ministry – and are asked to audition. Auditioning is required because more often than not, only the potential recruit’s vocal ability has been vouched for – which obviously isn’t enough. Hence a series of formal auditions and interviews are required by the group to gauge if the recruit is indeed fit to become a member.
