October is Recruitment Month, and we’re excited to kick off a series of posts celebrating the incredible teachers at Faith Academy! 🎉 Whether you’re a seasoned teacher or just starting your teaching journey, Faith Academy could be your future home. Stay tuned as we share insights about our school culture, staff stories, and how God has worked in the lives of our staff to place them here at Faith Academy! ✨🙏 🤝

Now let's jump into it! 🙌
We asked HSD Psychology and MSD Filipino Social Studies Teacher, Mrs. Cherril Miña: Why did you choose to teach at Faith Academy and why do you choose to stay? See her full answer here! ⬇️

"Teaching is touching lives. I have known since I was 8 years old that God called me to be a missionary. My heart's desire has always been to live a life used by the Lord to bring salvation to many people. Teaching at Faith Academy is God fulfilling that calling. I am partnering with families who are actively spreading the Gospel, and I am helping to equip the next generation of ministers, missionaries, and leaders who will impact the world for Christ. On top of that, I have the blessing of sending my own children to Faith Academy. The education they receive here is truly exceptional! It is a great privilege to play a part in shaping students who will soon go out into the world and reach countless lives for Him. It also has a great working environment. I always feel so empowered and supported as a staff member."

Each year our high schoolers embark on a retreat at Rizal Re-Creation Center. It's always a blast as they fellowship, build relationships, and make core memories together. ✨ This year our students and chaperones heard keynotes following the school theme #livethestorytellthestory.

"Every year we look forward to the high school retreat. It holds sentimental value for us. This year, the prayer night was really impactful. We got to pray for our friends, especially the seniors as they figure out what's next. Getting to turn the aircon on was also a huge bonus!" -Lia D., 11 and Hannah J., 11

In August we kicked off Season 1 sports at Faith Academy! 🌟 From late nights and early mornings to hard work and dedication, our coaches aren't just training our athletes, but teaching valuable skills in teamwork and commitment. Here’s to growing, pushing, and achieving! 💪🏃‍♀️🏅

We love it when Alumni visit! Our campus sits on a hill between Cainta and Antipolo. The lush greenery surrounding our buildings creates a sense of peace and nostalgia for many who come back to visit but also creates an escape from the bustling city life for those who live nearby. We are blessed to share this small piece of the world with generations of MKs, TCKs, and others from around the globe. 🌏✨🌴

Thank you to Alumnus Addi Forras, Class of '09, for sharing this Reel with us! It's an honor to see the campus through your lens! 📸🫶🙏

Recently our Partnership Development team hosted the first Filipino Parents’ Supplemental Orientation and Fellowship Opportunity! Many thanks to those who attended--returning and new Filipino parents across ESD, MSD, and HSD. 🇵🇭☀️🙌

Parents had the opportunity to hear parent and student panel discussions and informative presentations by fellow Faith parents Mr. Rev Cao (Director for Finance and Business) and Mrs. Junet Flores (HR staff and FAV Faith Academy Volunteers representative). We appreciate how these parents are invested in their children’s education and our missionary/ministry community! It was a pleasure to fellowship and pray with one another for our students and community.

But what's a Filipino gathering without games and prizes?! Salamat to Brews Brothers for providing GCs to our winning parents! ☕️🧋☕️

We're about to head into a busy weekend with sports and activities but first, we want to celebrate our dorms! Last weekend was FAMILY HOME WEEKEND! Our three dorms did activities together to fellowship and get to know one another. We are blessed to have these students living on campus and thankful for the Dorm Parents who pour into them!

Would you join us in praying for:
-their parent's ministries
-the student's hearts as they miss family
-the Dorm Parents as they minister to each student daily

A part of one of the families that founded Faith Academy, now an FA parent and staff member, Kim Keating said it best--

"The flag ceremony is always a marker of the start of the school year, but it's also become a marker of the passage of time. I love my school and I love that my kids have been a part of this school since day one."

We are thankful for another year to serve, grow, and live the story of Christ in us. May we always cherish this ceremony and its visual representation of the countries represented at our school but also how it marks growth and new beginnings each year. 🙏

During the school year we often only see those in our department/division. It has been a blessing to have this time to bond and create relationships with staff and employees we may not see or know!
