During each visit, the students brought essential goods to the elderly residents and spent quality time engaging with them, fostering an atmosphere of care and respect. A special part of the outreach was the celebration of the Holy Mass, led by Fr. Ben Hur G. Borja, SDB. This spiritual service was made even more meaningful through the guidance of the students' advisers and brothers, who accompanied them throughout the activity.
