PARTNERSHIP WITH DE LA SALLE UNIVERSITY TAFT

A series of Zoom meetings was conducted with students from De La Salle University (DLSU) under the GEPCOM program (Purposive Communication course), in partnership with COSCA (the university’s social action arm).

Through this partnership, MMP was selected as a featured community organization for the students’ advocacy campaign project. The collaboration focused on developing infographics and videos aimed at raising public awareness about MMP’s mission and impact.

MMP was chosen because of its long-standing role as a community partner aligned with various Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) such as No Poverty, Quality Education, and more.
Most recently, on July 16, a group of DLSU students visited the MMP office to begin their fieldwork. They conducted interviews with the Executive Director and produced video materials to highlight MMP’s programs and advocacies.

Furthermore, another meaningful Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) was signed between Mission Ministries Philippines (MMP) and the Nordic Harvest Mission Foundation – Philippines Branch to establish a partnership in support of Bright Morning Star Child Development Center through its new initiative, the School Readiness Program.

This program is designed to equip young children with foundational skills essential for a smooth transition into formal schooling. The MOA signing took place on May 14, 2025, marking the start of a shared commitment to prepare children for lifelong learning.

We warmly welcome Nordic Harvest Mission Foundation as a valued partner in our mission to transform lives through early childhood education.

Grounded in Theory, Driven by Practice

On July 10–11, 2025, a total of 52 teachers and school leaders participated in a face-to-face practical training held at Roots and Wings Learning Center at Marikina City, one of our partner schools.
This annual event ensures that the learnings from the ECE Level 1 and 2 Crash Course are effectively applied in actual classroom settings.


The seminar was facilitated by Teacher Chona, together with MMP Supervisors Teacher Sundie Victoria from Jubilant Youngsters Academy in Balagtas, Bulacan, Teacher Maricel Miñon from Batasan Foursquare Tutorial Center, Teacher Del, one of our MMP officers and Teacher Christine Fa’ar Nobleza who discussed one of the most engaging and timely topics “Handling Special Children in a Regular Classroom.”


A major highlight of the two-day training was the live demonstration session, where the MMP Supervisors role-played as preschool teachers, while the participants acted as their students.
What a joy it was to witness our MMP teachers engaging in hands-on learning again through a face-to-face platform!

MMP Teachers’ Officers and MMP Supervisors Meeting

“It takes a community to raise a child,” as famously quoted by Hillary Clinton—and this truth was beautifully reflected on May 27, 2025, when MMP held a significant planning meeting with its dedicated partners: the MMP Teachers’ Officers, led by Pastor Precy Vallente, Teacher Cristy Montano, Teacher Delia Casas, Flor Tañag and Teacher Alice Espiritu and our MMP Supervisors, headed by Teacher Sundie Victoria.

The meeting focused on preparations for the upcoming school year opening, as well as exciting upcoming MMP activities such as the 2026 Teachers’ Camp in Boracay, seminars, Children’s Show of Talents, and more.

From the bottom of our hearts, we express our deepest gratitude and appreciation to these MMP heroes. Your commitment and passion make all the difference.

Truly, how can we ever thank you enough?

Kid’s International Learning Academy

It is always a joy to reconnect with our dear friends at Kid’s International Learning Academy (KILA) in Cainta, Rizal. MMP has been regularly invited to facilitate their Teacher Refresher Training, with none other than Teacher Elizabeth King—one of MMP’s most beloved facilitators—consistently leading the sessions.


We are especially proud that KILA’s principal, Miss Joan Ong, is also the main author of our Math Made Easy book. From its humble beginnings as a preschool in 1998, KILA has grown into a full-fledged institution now offering education up to the high school level.


The most recent training was successfully conducted on May 23, 2025.

MOVING UP CEREMONIES IN DIFFERENT MMP PARTNER SCHOOLS:

March to April marked a meaningful season of Moving-Up Ceremonies, a time of celebration and new beginnings. MMP Director, Teacher Chona, had the joy and honor of attending several of these events as the invited guest speaker.

A common theme echoed across these ceremonies was inspired by the Department of Education’s official slogan: “Generation of Unity: Partners for the New Philippines.”

In her message, Teacher Chona emphasized that the foundation for a better Philippines begins with raising a new generation of Filipinos—an effort deeply rooted in the work of Early Childhood Education. Quoting the familiar saying, “It’s hard to teach old dogs new tricks,” she highlighted the vital importance of shaping young minds early in life.

To all our dedicated preschool teachers: we carry a significant mission. Let us continue to nurture the next generation of Filipinos with purpose, unity, and hope!

Contract Signing With AMG (Ang Mananampalatayang Gumagawa)

God’s Word in Psalm 133:1 declares, “How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity.” This Scripture beautifully came to life on February 28, 2025, as Mission Ministries Philippines (MMP) and AMG Philippines—a Christian mission organization committed to holistic ministry that transforms individuals, families, and communities—formally signed a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA).

This partnership marks the beginning of a shared journey to provide quality Early Childhood Education to underserved AMG communities across the Philippines.

Parenting Seminars

MMP partner schools continue to affirm the vital role parents play in achieving our shared goal: the holistic development of every child. One of the most impactful ways to strengthen home-school collaboration is through Parenting Seminars.

On February 22, 2025, another meaningful seminar was held, facilitated by none other than MMP Director, Teacher Chona. With passion, creativity, and a heart for families, she led the session using interactive methods such as play-based learning, case studies, and hands-on workshops. The event took place at Holy Castle Learning Center, one of MMP’s long-standing partner schools since the early 1990s.

The seminar served as a beautiful reminder to parents of their God-given responsibility to train up their children. At the same time, by enrolling their children in MMP partner schools, they are entrusting part of that responsibility to educators—a humbling yet honorable calling for every teacher and staff member.

Dear Parents, it is truly a joy and privilege to partner with you in shaping the future of your children!
