๐ A Day of Compassion: SRCY x Longhua Temple Medical Mission 2025 ๐
๐
Happened on the November 23
On this meaningful day, we witnessed something truly beautifulโhow service, when shared with sincerity, can transform an ordinary day into a moment of hope. The Sakya Red Cross Youth, together with the compassionate team of Longhua Temple Medical Mission Philippines โ Davao Buddhist Inc., walked into the barangay not just as volunteers, but as bearers of care, warmth, and kindness.
What started as a simple goalโto assist and offer basic medical helpโbecame a meaningful experience weโll carry with us for a long time. The moment we began, we were greeted by people whose smiles spoke louder than words. Some were shy, some were excited, but all of them shared one thing: hope. And seeing their faces light up, even from the smallest assistance we could give, reminded us why we serve.
Whether it was guiding them to the doctors, helping them fill out forms, or simply listening to their stories while they waitedโevery encounter held its own quiet magic. We saw gratitude in the eyes of elders, relief in the faces of parents, and pure joy in the laughter of children. These small moments stitched together a journey of compassion that made the entire mission unforgettable.
This collaboration wasnโt just teamworkโit was harmony. The dedication of Longhua Temple Medical Mission Phil. โ Davao Buddhist Inc., paired with the energy and heart of SRCY volunteers, created a mission that touched far more than just physical health. It touched lives.
To our partners, thank you for your trust, guidance, and generosity. And to the community we served, thank you for reminding us that helpingโeven in the simplest waysโcan uplift not only those we serve, but also those who serve.
On the November 23, we didnโt just complete a medical missionโ
we shared compassion, created connections, and carried home memories that remind us why service truly matters. โค๏ธ๐ฉบ๐ค
