One Heart, One Soul.
Vision Statement
We, the seminarians of the Nativity of Our Lady College Seminary, envision ourselves as a community living based on a profound relationship with God (living, that is, a life centered on the Eucharist) and on integral human formation with personal responsibility as emphasis, focused on the attainment of academic excellence and internalization of the value of brotherhood and sensitivity to the needs of the people in order for us to fully understand the nature and extent of our vocation and thus live as Christian leaders of the Diocese of Borongan.

Mission Statement
The AB Philosophy Program aims to produce graduates who have achieved academic excellence, appreciation for the arts, zeal for quest of truth and love of wisdom by harnessing the capacity for logical , analytical and critical thinking based on the principle of Christian Education and imbued with the Gospel values, in order to equip them with the suitable and necessary knowledge geared towards the challenges of the new millennium, especially in the development of the human life and service for the poor.
Objectives
- To form students as human beings by sharpening their judgment and refining their appreciation of wisdom.
- To critically reflect the traditional fields of philosophy: Logic, Epistemology, Ethics, Rational Psychology, Cosmology, Metaphysics, and Natural Theology among others.
- To understand the different problems, so that students can discern the truth, defect error and refuge it.
- To prepare the students for theological studies and for the right performance of their apostolic ministry which requires them to be properly trained in dialogue of their day and age.

Words of Wisdom: A Treasury of Inspiration

Peace be with you all! Beloved brothers and sisters, this is the first greeting of the Risen Christ, the Good Shepherd who has given his life for the flock of God. I, too, would like this greeting of peace to enter your hearts, reach your families, to all people, wherever they may be, to all peoples, to all the earth. Peace be with you!

POPE LEO XIV
The Supreme Pontiff of the Universal Church

Let us stand united in our resolve to demand accountability, integrity, and genuine leadership. It is time to reclaim our democracy and protect our planet not only for ourselves but also for the sake of the generations to come. The words of the Lord, βWhatever you did to the least of my brothers and sisters, you did it to meβ (Mt 25:40) certainly include them too.
