Union Christian College, in partnership with Partners for Indigenous Knowledge Philippines (PIKP), proudly presents the launching of “From the Mountain to Our Hearts: A Story of the Bago Tribe for Our Children” on October 9, 2026, at the UCC Conference Hall, 4th Floor, Capistrano Building. More than the launching of a story, this gathering is a celebration of Indigenous knowledge, culture, identity, and the power of storytelling to connect generations. It reminds us that the stories of our Indigenous communities are living treasures—carrying the wisdom of our ancestors and helping young people understand the richness of their heritage. Joining the event are Rev. Dr. Ferdinand A. Anno of Union Christian College, Jill Cariño of PIKP, and Atty. Arthur K. Herman of the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP). As the story journeys from the mountains to our hearts, may it inspire us to listen, learn, preserve, and pass on the knowledge and traditions that make our communities and our nation beautifully diverse. Come and be part of this meaningful celebration of story, heritage, and Indigenous knowledge. #UnionChristianCollege #UCC #IndigenousKnowledge #PIKP #BagoTribe #FromTheMountainToOurHearts #IndigenousPeoples #CulturalHeritage #Storytelling #Education #LaUnion

Today, Union Christian College joins the global community in celebrating World Teachers’ Day and honoring the men and women whose dedication, wisdom, patience, and compassion continue to transform lives through education. We extend our heartfelt greetings and deepest appreciation to all teachers around the world, and most especially to the hardworking and dedicated educators of the Basic Education Schools, School of Education, Arts, and Sciences, School of Business Sciences, and School of Health Sciences of Union Christian College. Every lesson you prepare, every learner you encourage, every challenge you patiently overcome, and every extra effort you make leaves an impact that reaches far beyond the classroom. You do more than impart knowledge—you nurture dreams, strengthen character, inspire hope, and prepare generations of learners to become responsible citizens, competent professionals, compassionate leaders, and faithful servants of their communities. As UCCian educators, you embody the values that define our institution: Faith that anchors our purpose, Integrity that guides our actions, Responsibility that strengthens our commitment, Excellence that inspires us to continually do our best, and Service that reminds us that education is ultimately an expression of love for God and humanity. To our dear teachers, thank you for choosing to teach, inspire, encourage, empower, and serve. Your work may not always receive the recognition it deserves, but its influence lives on in every student whose life you have touched and in every dream you have helped make possible. On this special day, may you be reminded that your work matters, your sacrifices are appreciated, and your influence reaches farther than you may ever know. Happy World Teachers’ Day to all our beloved educators! May God continue to bless you with wisdom, strength, patience, and joy as you fulfill your noble calling.
