VALUES FORMATION THROUGH COMMUNITY SERVICE
Values are said to be worth the importance
we connect to different factors in our lives. The word
values come from the Latin word “valere” which means
to measure the worth of something. These are ideas
and norms man considers relevant and good.
A value has been defined as any object, activity or
frame of mind that a person considers to be very
important to his life. Unconsciously, values emerge as
list of priorities in a person’s life. However, in most
cases, people have different priorities depending on
how they look at life and how they interpret survival.
That is why it is important to check what the youth
values nowadays, because values taken together are
called a Value System which exists not only on
individuals but to community as well. By this, students
will be of great help to the community where they will be
assigned in shaping a positive corporate culture.
Values are especially important to understanding
human behavior. Conflicts between them are often
based on differences in values.
Values education is founded on a sound
philosophy of the human person with all its philosophical
ramifications and implications. The supreme and
overarching value that characterizes education is
HUMAN DIGNITY.
THE MEANING OF MAN AS A PERSON
To speak of man as being- with-others is to speak
of man as a person which also means that he is unique
and has his permanent trademark in the world.
Man’s co-existence with others does not require a
learning process or experience because it is inherent in
his being as a person. However, the quality of his
relationship with others needs a process to make it worthy
and lasting.
Likewise, a persons’ sets of values is not merely
dictated by the need to harmoniously live with others but
should be governed by the biblical perspective that sets
the greatest commandment that stated in Matthew 22: 35-
40 which says, “Love the Lord your God with all your
heart, with all your soul and with all your mind”, and, “Love
your neighbor as you love yourself”.
