From a wish to its articulation a survey as to the viability of the project yielded a realization of the opening of the new Mother Ignacia Learning Center. MINSAC-Llorente was the moving factor of such operation.

Having approached the right person from the DSWD, there was a meeting of minds regarding the project. With the approval of the National Office, the Learning Center sprang into being having the multi-purpose structure beside the Sisters’ residence for its venue. It’s doors were opened to about 50 children who were divided into two classes. The Municipal Social Worker and Development Offices (MSWDO) provided two Teachers and the LGU was responsible for the honoraria of the staff and the providing of tables and chairs for the children’s classrooms.

The Federation of Filipino-Chinese Chamber of Commerce in Tacloban donated the two-classroom building through the initiative of Mr. Carlos Chung . Mr Henry Yao Kasin, head of the FFCCC of Tacloban assured the Learning Center’s organizers of their donation after his ocular inspection on the proposed site for the building.

The construction was finished in a short time and the blessing took place on November 18, 2007.

Really, the little ones have a special place in the heart of God. Once more the gospel, “let the children come to me . . . because the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these,” is alive in the hearts of generous people. Children are most favored. It happened and is happening in our lives and we share the blessings.
