Welcome to Cebu!
Welcome to St. Theresa’s College!

From the school’s opening in 1933, the Missionary Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (ICM) felt deep in their hearts that Cebu was ripe for harvest for God’s mission. The warmth, openness, hospitality and religiosity of the Cebuanos captured the hearts of the pioneering Belgian sisters and then exclaimed; “Lord, it is good to be here !”

After more than seventy years of service here in Cebu, St. Theresa’s College continues its mission of nurturing young ladies to become what God intends them to be: Christian women leaders who can help transform society and become shapers of their own destiny.

Inspired by the patron saint, Theresa of Avila, St. Theresa’s translates its logo into programs: virtute, scientia, artibus floreat – may virtue, science, and the arts flourish here in the school. Goodness, truth, and beauty are dynamically expressed in its training for academic proficiency and on-going formation for life. Thus a wholistic approach to the educative processes is used to ensure the integral formation of the learners.

Likewise, the missionary spirit of the ICM Foundress, Marie Louise de Meester permeates the whole program of education of the institution. This spirit is characterized by a sincere love of God, loyalty to the Church, a great respect for the dignity of humankind, integrity of creation, and genuine personal concern of creation, and genuine personal concern and involvement in the lives of the people, especially the poor.

It is the ardent prayer of the Institution that its graduates become bearers of the Gospel, evangelizers of hope, light of the families and the nation as they nurture in themselves the culture of goodness and excellence.

 


 
 
Vision of Philippine Society

We envision a society that is genuinely maka-Diyos, maka-tao and maka-bayan, maka-kalikasan and maka-kasarian.
To attain our vision, our Christian faith demands that we work in all spheres of life: religio-cultural, socio-economic, political, ecological and gender sensitive.
Concretely, we envision a Philippine society which has the following characteristics:
the people respect, preserve and develop the     good, the true and the sacred in the culture;
the economy is self-reliant and globally-
    acceptable. It ensures just distribution of wealth,     resources and opportunities;
the people enjoy national sovereignty and are     empowered by leaders imbued with high moral     integrity;
men and women co-exist in harmony with each     other and with Mother Earth.

In response, we commit ourselves to this VISION.
