PART II. VISION: The university shall take the role of a catalyst for human
development. It shall inculcate Christian values and Catholic doctrine, as a way of
strengthening the moral fiber of the Filipino, a people who are “Helpers of God…
Application for Core Values (Peace and Global Solidarity; Love of God, Self,
Family, and Neighbor):
1. Growing in faith as a Christian involves more than mere belief; it's about
embodying values and principles in action. Here are some ways I cultivate
my faith, supported by evidence and good deeds:

1.1. The Value of Prayer (Prayer Activities 10% of your class standing/ 5pts
each item/ replacement for assignment) - Regular prayer and meditation are
essential for deepening my connection with God and strengthening my faith.
Attached is a photo depicting my prayer life, which encompasses both private
and public prayer settings. Over the next four days, I will diligently document
my prayer activities to cultivate a habit of prayer and attain inner peace,
especially as I navigate through my On-the-Job Training (OJT) days. Here are
four examples of my prayer experiences:
Example: Today, I began my day with a quiet, personal prayer in my room,
expressing gratitude for the opportunities ahead during my OJT. Later,
during a group prayer session at church, I prayed for guidance and strength
to excel in my tasks. In the evening, I participated in a family prayer,
reflecting on the day's events and seeking blessings for the challenges
ahead. (Please create your own prayer…a personal prayer from your
heart reflecting the “Value of Prayer” as learned and discussed in our
FCL Classes)

1.2. Service to Others (50% of your class standing – replacement for Quizzes/
5pts each item): Selflessly serving others reflects the teachings of Jesus
Christ, embodying the principle and core value of loving thy neighbor as
thyself. Enclosed are snapshots of me engaging in acts of service within
various spheres of my life, including the workplace, family, friends, and the
community, to illustrate this principle. These images serve as evidence of my
commitment to demonstrating love for myself, my family, and my
neighbors through actions that prioritize their well-being and upliftment.
Here are four documented instances showcasing the value of love for self,
family, and neighbor:
Example A: A photo capturing me assisting a colleague with a challenging
task, demonstrating my willingness to support others in achieving success in
the workplace.
Example B: An image showcasing a moment of quality time spent with my
family, highlighting the importance of nurturing relationships and fostering love
and unity within the family unit.
Example C: A photograph capturing me offering emotional support and
encouragement to a friend in times of difficulty, reflecting the value of
standing by those closest to me in times of need.
Example D: An image depicting me engaging in acts of kindness and
compassion towards a neighbor, whether through lending a helping hand or
simply offering a listening ear, showcasing my dedication to loving and serving
those around me.

services for non-Catholic Christians). Write down the specific day, time, and the
name of the church). Then, reflect on the following questions:
