The disengagement program of the
team, Mauswagong Mirangan, has been carefully considered during the initial
interventions of the group. It has always been the consideration of the group
to gradually instill the responsibility of the different projects to the
members of the community. Hence, the disengagement program is the culmination
of all the interactions and aspiration of the community and of the group.
The
barangay council, women’s association, core group, and other members of the
community were informed of the program. They agreed to head the different
aspects of the program. The medical students will only provide a guideline of
the program, but will not have responsibility in it. It will solely be a
community affair.
The
barangay council agreed to give Php 3,000 to fund the preparations and for the
food of the program. The Mirangan’s Bakery agreed to provide cakes and bread
for the program. Selected members of the community also agreed to give a
testimony during the program and the medical students will give a testimony in
response.
Invitations
were given to several government and non-government personnel who have been
part in building and aspiring for a better Mirangan. Announcements were also
placed in different key areas around the community for people to be informed.
Different kinds of tokens like clocks and fans were made to be given during the
program.
It
will all the things in place, the program went on as planned. The members of
the community expressed how happy they are with the success of the different
projects and for memories that were made with the students. Tears were also
shared by everyone as each gave their testimonies on how their lives were
touched throughout the years that were shared. It wasn’t just a simple turnover
ceremony, but an acknowledgement of love. With heavy hearts, one by one, bid
farewell to people who became our second fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers,
and close friends. True, it started all as a requirement for school, but it
became more than that. It became a labor of love. A love that was shared by all
and a love that grew little by little through time. A love that was genuine and
immeasurable. The projects may have ended, but our story of love did not. Along
with our relationship, the love that was shared will continue to grow and last.
