Bagong Simula: Community Center ng Sacred Heart Village, Pormal nang Binuksan

Quezon City, Pilipinas — Agosto 2, 2025

Ni Juliet Zapanta Cruz

Isang bagong yugto ng pag-unlad at pagkakaisa ang isinilang sa komunidad ng Sacred Heart Village, Barangay Pasong Putik, matapos ang pormal na inagurasyon ng kanilang bagong dalawang-palapag na Community Center noong Sabado, sa pangunguna ni Mayor Joy Belmonte.

Ang proyekto ay bunga ng pagtutulungan ng Pamahalaang Lungsod ng Quezon, Barangay Pasong Putik sa pamumuno ni Kapitan Mike Jamin, at ng Sacred Heart Village Homeowners Association Inc. na pinamumunuan ni Engr. Mackie Yoro.

“Ito ay handog ng lungsod sa mga QCitizens,” ayon kay Mayor Belmonte sa kanyang talumpati.

 

“Layunin nating mapakinabangan ito ng komunidad—para sa mga adhikain gaya ng zero-waste at plastic-free community, livelihood trainings, aktibidad para sa senior citizens, at paghubog ng kakayahan ng kabataan.”

📌 Mga Pasilidad ng Bagong Gusali

Ang bagong community center ay dinisenyong tumugon sa pangangailangan ng iba’t ibang sektor sa SHV. Kabilang sa mga pasilidad nito ay:

Opisina para sa homeowners association at barangay security

Material Recovery Facility (MRF) para sa waste segregation

Conference room at multi-purpose rooms para sa mga pagpupulong at programa

Kwarto para sa mga kooperatiba at livelihood projects

All-gender comfort rooms

Learning and activity spaces para sa mga kabataan at matatanda

Ayon kay Kapitan Mike Jamin, ang gusaling ito ay matagal nang pangarap ng komunidad.

“Hindi lamang ito pasilidad. Isa itong sagisag ng pagkakaisa at kooperasyon ng aming barangay, HOA, at pamahalaang lungsod.”

Samantala, si HOA President Engr. Mackie Yoro ay nagpahayag ng pasasalamat sa lahat ng bumuo ng proyekto.

“Ang community center na ito ay magiging tahanan ng pag-asa at oportunidad para sa lahat ng residente ng SHV.”

Dumalo rin sa seremonya sina City Architect Red Avelino, City Engineer Atty. Dale Peral, District 5 Action Officer William Bawag, at Internal Audit Service Head Atty. Noel Gascon, na pawang nagpahayag ng suporta sa inisyatibo.

Ang pagbubukas ng Sacred Heart Village Community Center ay bahagi ng mas malawak na programa ng Quezon City na naglalayong magpatayo ng matitibay at inklusibong pasilidad sa bawat komunidad.

Sa pagtatapos ng seremonya, iniwan ni Mayor Belmonte ang mga mamamayan ng SHV ng isang mensahe ng pag-asa:

“Mabuhay po tayong lahat. Sama-sama nating pagandahin at palakasin ang ating komunidad.”

Falcon, yan ang pangalan ng ika-anim na bagyo sa Pilipinas ngayong 2019.

Ayon sa mga namumuno ng PAGASA, kailangan natin ang mga pag-ulan, dahil magiging maganda ang mga benepisyo nito sa ating bansa. Dahil nga sa mga nakalipas na linggo, narananasan ang kakulangan natin sa tubig. Ito ay dahil mas mababa na sa standard na dami ng tubig sa Angat Dam.

Desisyon ng Bayan 2019

Isang mapayapang eleksyon ang naganap sa aming pamayanan at nakatapos sa pagboto nang maayos at tuluy-tuloy dito sa Horacio dela Costa Elementary School, Caloocan City.

Sa umpisa ay napakahaba ng pila. Inuna muna ang mga "senior citizen" at mga "PWD" o ang mga "persons with disabilities." Kalaunan ay madali namang naisaayos ang organisado at semi-computerized na pagboto na ginamit ang makinang Smartmatic sa aming lugar.

Umabot ang pila mula sa ibabang hagdan hanggang sa sumunod na palapag ang haba ng pila sa paaralan ng Horacio Dela Costa, Caloocan City.

In one rainy day, I am looking for ways to relax and have the best therapeutic massage as I need some pampering for my shoulder and legs. I tried the kind of massage I like in a known mall but was not satisfied with the service.
