As we observe All Soulsโ€™ Day, our hearts turn toward those who have gone before us, embracing their memory with love and prayer. Their presence may no longer grace our days, yet their love, lessons, and memories continue to live on in our hearts.

This day reminds us that love transcends time and death. Every candle lit, every whispered prayer, and every visit to their resting place is a testament to the bond that endures beyond this life. May we find peace in remembering, gratitude in reflection, and hope in the promise of eternal reunion.

Let us take this time to honor their memory and celebrate the beautiful legacy they have left behind.

Today, the Christian world observes ๐—”๐—น๐—น ๐—ฆ๐—ฎ๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜๐˜€' ๐——๐—ฎ๐˜†, a solemn occasion dedicated to honoring all the saints who have lived lives of faith and virtue. Celebrated every November 1, the day serves as a timeless reminder of the strength of faith and the call to live with compassion and holiness.

Historically, the observance of All Saintsโ€™ Day traces back to the 4th century when early Christians began honoring martyrs who sacrificed their lives for their faith. By the 9th century, the Church formally established November 1 as a day to celebrate all the saints in heaven, extending the recognition beyond martyrs to include all who lived righteously and faithfully.

As faithful across the world light candles and offer prayers, the essence of the celebration remains the same: to draw inspiration from the lives of the saints and to strive toward lives marked by faith, hope, and love.

As we light our candles and offer our prayers, may we find the strength to live with compassion, humility, and courage, bringing light to others as they once did.

Pateros Technological College took part in spreading sweetness and creativity as it participated in the Go Go Pateros Trick or Treat 2025, held along G. de Borja Street, Pateros.

The annual celebration, organized by the Municipality of Pateros, gathered families, friends, and local organizations for an afternoon filled with fun, creativity, and community spirit. Children paraded in their spookiest, cutest, and most creative costumes, bringing life and color to the municipal grounds as the search for the Best in Costume began. Before the main program, participants registered and received treats as they visited the various booths set up inside the municipal hall, creating an atmosphere of excitement and joy across the venue.

Adding an extra touch of sweetness to the celebration, Pateros Technological College (PTC) actively participated through the PTC Faculty Federation, serving as the official sponsor of the eventโ€™s goodies, in partnership with the Supreme Student Council (SSC) and the Accredited Student Organizations (AcSO). This initiative, under the leadership of College President Dr. Analiza F. Arcega, reflected PTCโ€™s commitment to community engagement, youth participation, and local collaboration, embodying the institutionโ€™s mission of service and civic responsibility. The AcSO collaborated for the Halloween-themed booth, spearheaded by PTC Image Collaborative Media, which became a photo spot for families and children.

The event featured exciting giveaways and a thrilling Magic Show, all designed to bring smiles to the faces of children and families alike. The laughter and cheers that filled the municipal grounds truly captured the joy of Halloween in Pateros, a celebration not just of costumes and candy but of unity and creativity. As part of the highlights, winners of the Best in Costume competition received cash prizes and gift certificates provided by the event sponsors and partners.

In an interview during the event, Mayor Gerald German shared his message to all the children and families who participated in Trick or Treat 2025: โ€œIsang buwan namin pinaghandaan ang preparation simula pa noong September. In-charge talaga dito si Direk Kenneth Cruz. Dito sa Pateros, inaabangan talaga ito ng mga bata bawat taon. Hindi lang ang local government ang nag-oorganize, pati mga kabataan at barangay din. Sig**o sa munisipyo lang ang pinakamalaki dahil ito ang pinakahuling may Halloween Trick or Treat, at nakakatuwa ngayon dahil ginawa namin ito sa loob ng munisipyo para mas safe ang mga bata. Thank God, naging successful namanโ€”napakarami ng umattend at sponsors, hindi lang LGU kundi pati private companies. Tinatanong ko rin kung gusto pa ng lahat na maulit ito, dahil may ilan na hindi pabor sa ganitong gawain. Pero para sa akin, katuwaan lamang itoโ€”parang costume party. Nakikita natin dito kung gaano katalented at creative ang mga kababayan natin, lalo naโ€™t naglalaan sila ng oras para pagandahin ang kanilang costume.โ€

Mayor Germanโ€™s message highlighted the municipalityโ€™s focus on safety, inclusivity, and celebration, underscoring that the event was more than just a Halloween gathering, it was a joyful expression of community pride and creativity.

Through its participation in this event, Pateros Technological College continues to support the Municipality of Pateros in its initiatives that promote community engagement, creativity, and youth involvement. The PTC's active presence in activities like Go Go Pateros Trick or Treat 2025 reflects its dedication to service, partnership, and the shared goal of fostering unity and joy among the people of Pateros.

๐‘ท๐’‚๐’‚๐’๐’ ๐’Œ๐’–๐’๐’ˆ ๐’‰๐’Š๐’๐’…๐’Š ๐’Œ๐’‚ ๐’‚๐’ˆ๐’‚๐’… ๐’๐’‚๐’˜๐’‚๐’๐’‚?

Madalas kong tanungin sa sarili ko โ€˜yan. Sa pagitan ng mga gabing tahimik at mga umagang pilit kong ginagawang masigla. Kasi sa totoo lang, may mga araw pa rin na pakiramdam ko, hindi pa ako sanay sa pagkawala mo. Parang isang awit na biglang pinutol bago pa tumugtog ang pinakamasayang bahagi.

Sa tuwing nalalagay ako sa sitwasyong komplikado, lagi kong naiisip na hindi sana ganitong kabigat kung ikaโ€™y nandito. Dati kasi, kahit walang sinasabi, sapat na ang presensya mo para maramdaman kong kaya ko. Ngayon, puro tanong na lang ang naiwanโ€”mga tanong na wala namang sagot kahit ilang ulit kong balikan.

Paano kung hindi ka agad nawala?
Sig**o, mas madalas akong tumawa. Sig**o, hindi ako matatakot sa mundo. Sig**o, matututunan kong ipagmalaki ang bawat pagkakamali dahil andiyan ka para sabihing โ€œayos lang, parte โ€˜yan ng paglaki.โ€

Pero minsan, naiisip ko rin.. baka kung nagtagal ka pa, hindi ko rin natutunang tumayo mag-isa. Baka patuloy kong inasa saโ€™yo ang tapang na dapat palaโ€™y matagal ko nang pinanday sa sarili. Baka hindi ko natutunang tanggapin na may mga tao talagang dumarating hindi para manatili, kundi para turuang mahalin kahit ang pagkawala.

Ngayon, natutunan kong mamuhay sa pagitan ng โ€œsanaโ€ at โ€œsalamat.โ€
Sana hindi ka agad nawala.
Salamat dahil dumating ka pa rin.

Dahil kahit saglit lang, ipinakita mong posible pala ang ganitong uri ng koneksyon, yung kahit wala ka na, ramdam pa rin ang init ng alaala mo sa bawat sulok ng tahimik kong gabi.

At sa tuwing maririnig ko ang tunog ng ulan, o maaamoy ko ang kapeng niluluto sa umaga, bigla kong mararamdaman ang presensya moโ€”hindi para ipaalala kung gaano kasakit ang pagkawala, kundi kung gaano kaganda ang mga sandaling dumaan ka sa buhay ko.

Kaya sig**o, hindi na mahalaga kung gaano ka kabilis nawala. Ang mahalaga, dumating ka.
At sa puso kong marupok ngunit matatag na ngayon; hindi ka kailanman nawala.

Pateros Technological College (PTC) conducted its Mental Health and Services Forum on October 30, 2025, at the PTC Main Campus - Social Hall. The event aimed to raise awareness about mental health and introduce the guidance services available to students.

Participating in the forum were first year NSTP students and student leaders from Accredited Student Organizations (AcSO) who actively engaged in the discussions throughout the program.

The forum was facilitated by Dr. Analiza Arcega, PTC College President, together with Ms. Krizza Luz, RGC, from the Guidance Office. Serving as the Masters of Ceremony were Precious Jamila Reyes and Elmer P. Perote, who guided the programโ€™s flow and introduced the speakers.

In her message, Dr. Arcega emphasized that understanding oneself is a crucial part of maintaining mental wellness. โ€œNot all people symbolize mental healthโ€”it takes a lot of courage and assessment for you to understand yourself,โ€ she said. She encouraged students to approach the Guidance Office whenever they need assistance, noting that it serves as an open and supportive space.

She also reminded students that visiting the Guidance Office is not about finding immediate solutions but about receiving professional assistance. โ€œYour friendโ€™s advice is different compared to the professional advice of your counselor,โ€ she explained. She added that common challenges faced by students include personal, family, academic, and financial concerns, which make guidance services even more vital.

Following her, Ms. Krizza Luz discussed the importance of self-awareness and perseverance in overcoming difficulties. โ€œAlamin mo kung ano yung strength and weakness mo,โ€ she advised, underscoring the need for self-reflection. She also encouraged students to remain resilient amid challenges, stating, โ€œEvery time you fail, always make sure to back yourself upโ€”you have to encourage yourself.โ€

The program concluded with an engaging open forum facilitated by the Supreme Student Council (SSC) and The Plumage, where students had the opportunity to raise questions and share their thoughts on mental health. The panel of respondents included Dr. Analiza Arcega, Prof. Angelo Cagalingan, and Center for Student Services, Sports, Culture, and the Arts (CESSCA) Executive Director, Prof. Raniel Arcega, who provided meaningful insights and guidance during the discussion.

The Mental Health and Services Forum reflected PTCโ€™s continued commitment to promoting a supportive environment that prioritizes not only academic growth but also the emotional and psychological well-being of PTCians.

Sa bawat paglipas ng araw, dumadalaw ang mga alaala ng nakaraan. Mga boses na matagal nang nawala, mga mensaheng hindi na nasagot. Sa katahimikan ng gabi, may mga multong bumabalik, hindi lang mula sa libingan kundi mula sa ating mga nakaraan. ๐ŸŽƒ

Ikaw ba, handa ka na bang harapin ang multo ng iyong nakaraan? ๐Ÿ‘ป
