He encouraged the members to love the program, participants in the meetings, mobilize others who have not come. He then invited Maria to take over. Maria welcomed members, reintroduced the program, the organization, and her name to the members. Then she introduced the topic of the day as reviewing the lessons taught in the lower section and later learning about Sexually transmitted diseases and Urinary tract infection.

Kagoya shared her experience of a certain neighbor who pass on because the husband did not take her to hospital in time while in labor.
