High School assistance program started in the year 2007 to help the poor from the rural areas. The pilot project operated in Oslob, Cebu with more than 200 high school students since year 2007 up to the present. This year, 2011, the sisters are extending the high school assistance program to the towns of Boljoon, Santander and Tuburan with 50 students from each town. In this way, the children are being protected from human traffickers.

They are provided with school supplies, transportation allowance, uniforms, shoes and bags. Spiritual formation is also being provided . Yearly retreats , leadership training and team building to help them develop their personality and moral values. The sisters together with the lay volunteers and tertiary members or we call them “Mission Partners” monitor the grades of the students.

To support this program, the sisters are sharing this opportunity to all generous and kind-hearted people they met.

Awarding of certificates for high school beneficiaries and feeding program.

Mary Queen of Heaven Missionaries celebrated Easter 2011 by feeding 3000 poor people in Tumalog, Oslob, Cebu. The activity started with a mass celebrated by Msgr. Pio Manalili and concelebrated by Fr. Cris Mendez, Fr. Henry Tagalog and Fr. Dario from the Tumalog Hermitage.

The highlight of the activity was the Awarding Ceremony of 209 High School and 20 Vocational student beneficiaries of the Regina Coeli Educational Assistance Program, a project of the Feeding of the Good Shepherd Foundation -arm of the Mary Queen of Heaven Missionaries in helping the poor from the rural areas.

We were blessed by the presence of the MCYC -Mandaue Children and Youth Choir, who once a champion of the World Choir Games and NAMCYA competition. The choir rendered beautiful songs during the mass and the program per se. The sisters also sang their favorite masterpiece Sister Act Medley, Bountiful Grace and Sound of Music Medley with MCYC. Oslob National high School Drum and Bugle Corps also animated and shocked  us with their astonishing  performance. After the program, lunch was served.

Our deepest gratitude to those who made this activity a success. God bless us all!
