22 May 2026
Sector Mission Assembly, Philippines 2026
St. Benilde Gym, La Salle Green Hills

The true strength of leaven is that it cannot do its work alone; it must be mixed into the batch.
At the Sector Mission Assembly Philippines 2026, bringing together school representatives from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, alongside our Council, Commissions, and DLSP Lasallian Partners, Volunteers and Brothers, we are challenged to look toward the peripheries—the margins, the overlooked, and the underserved.

To be leaven in these spaces means bringing the light of faith, the dignity of education, and the warmth of community to where it is needed most. Together, we commit to being agents of radical hope and systemic transformation. 💚

Experience the Sector Assembly through this highlight video and see how we came together to embrace the theme Leaven for the Peripheries committing ourselves to bring hope, compassion, and transformation to those on the margins.

Watch the highlights and be inspired to continue the mission.

The first day continued with community-building activities and the session Lasallian Reflection 11: “All is Connected: The Community of Creation and Universal Fraternity,” facilitated by Mr. Andyo Abusmas. Participants reflected on their role within the wider community of creation and prepared for the succeeding activities through personal journaling.

Jeanoel Endaya, FSC, participants explored how the founder’s life continues to shape the Lasallian Mission today.

They spent the day engaging with children through fun activities and games, creating moments of joy and connection. Some volunteers also supported community efforts by assisting in the clinic. The experience allowed them to better understand the community while building meaningful relationships. The day ended with a processing session where participants reflected on their insights and learnings from the immersion.

The camp concluded with a closing program and fellowship night, celebrating the shared journey and strengthened sense of community.

De La Salle Philippines Marks Two Decades United by Faithful Service, Shared Mission and Innovating for Education

Horacio Cebrero Hall, Central House Administration

On 6 October 2025, the De La Salle Philippines (DLSP) Central House Administration, together with the Brothers and Lasallian Partners, gathered in a spirit of joy and gratitude for the soft launch of DLSP’s 20th Anniversary a heartfelt celebration and reflection on two decades of Lasallian service and mission since its founding in 2005.

The event opened with inspiring remarks from Mr. Edgar Chua AFSC, President of De La Salle Philippines, whose message set the tone for the event. His address was followed by a ribbon-cutting ceremony and an exhibit tour. A visual journey through the milestones of DLSP’s twenty-year history. The exhibit featured texts and images that traced DLSP’s story from its humble beginnings, growth, to its commitment to Faith, Service, and Communion, and where it stands today.

Guests later gathered at the Horacio Cebrero Hall for a reflective panel discussion titled “Green Legacy: 20 Questions That Shaped DLSP. Our panelists Mr. Gladstone Cuarteros from Lasallian Mission Services (LMS), Ms. Tanya Alipato from Quality Management and Audit Services (QMAS), Mr. Randy Casayuran, and Ms. Nancy Martin from Administrative Services shared heartfelt memories and insights drawn from their years of service. Their stories resonated deeply with the audience, echoing the enduring spirit of dedication, faith, and community that has long defined the Lasallian family.

The program concluded with heartfelt messages from the Brother President Br. JJ Jimenez FSC, and Br. Dodo Fernandez FSC, Superintendent.

Although the gathering was an intimate one, it also marked a meaningful moment to highlight the DLSP @20 Logo. The design stands as a visual testament to twenty years of unity: guided by faith, dedicated to service, and committed to innovation in education.

Rendered in bronzish gold, the logo evokes a sense of excellence, honor, and joyful commemoration, while the shades of emerald green reflect vitality, renewal, and the ever-growing life of the Lasallian mission. Each element symbolizes a facet of DLSP’s journey:

• Growth and Renewal – reflecting DLSP’s continuous journey of transformation

• Experience and Wisdom – gained from two decades of challenges and triumphs

• Harmony and Collaboration – representing the unity of the sixteen Lasallian schools and partners

• Innovation and Adaptability – openness to new ideas while remaining rooted in Lasallian values

• Legacy and Future Vision – honoring the past while looking ahead with faith and hope.

At the heart of the emblem is Saint John Baptist de La Salle, a timeless tribute to the Founder whose vision continues to illuminate the Lasallian mission today. Surrounding his image are sixteen emblems, representing the schools that together form a circle of unity and shared purpose—a radiant symbol of faith, collaboration, and enduring commitment to serve.

As De La Salle Philippines celebrates this remarkable milestone, its 20th Anniversary stands not merely as a commemoration of the past, but as a renewal of purpose—a reaffirmation that the Lasallian mission, born of faith and sustained by community, will continue to shine brightly and inspire generations to come.

Ms. Fritzie presented the implementation updates aligned with the convocation themes and resolutions. For Learning Experience, schools emphasized the Lasallian Code of Ethics, leadership formation, and social responsibility, recommending standardized formation programs, mentoring, and inclusive initiatives involving parents and communities. Under Learning Environments, the focus was on developing inclusive, innovative spaces that blend tradition with contemporary needs. In Sharing of Resources, the importance of strengthening partnerships through formalized agreements with DLSP, LGUs, and private organizations was highlighted.

The gathering proved to be successful as it provided updates that deepen awareness of ongoing network efforts, strengthened connections among councils, teams, and commissions, review and align Commissions three-year plans anchored in 2023 the Philippine Lasallian Family Convocation (PLFC23) and Project Ministry Innovations in Lasallian Education (MILES) to clarify roles and commitments, and identified areas of synergy through collaborative projects and shared agenda.

The day concluded with Closing Remarks by Mr. Edgar O. Chua AFSC, President of De La Salle Philippines.

The shared agenda reflects a unified commitment to the Lasallian mission and serves as a roadmap for deepening engagement, coherence, and collaboration across the network of Lasallian institutions.

De La Salle Philippines 4th Intellectual Property Summit: One Network, One Vision for Innovation.

30 July 2025

De La Salle Philippines 4th Intellectual Property Summit: One Network, One Vision for Innovation.

Romeo P. Ariniego, MD (RPAMD) Library Auditorium of De La Salle Medical and Health Sciences Institute (DLSMHSI)

On 30 July, representatives from the Intellectual Property Commission of the De La Salle Philippines network of schools came together at the Romeo P. Ariniego, MD (RPAMD) Library Auditorium of De La Salle Medical and Health Sciences Institute (DLSMHSI) for the 4th DLSP Intellectual Property Summit. Centered on the theme “One La Salle, One Vision: Advancing IP Together,” the summit aimed to strengthen collaboration across the Lasallian network in developing and protecting intellectual property, and exchanging measurable targets on their three-year strategy, prepared by the IP Commission.

What began in 2022 as simple meetings has evolved into a meaningful annual event where ideas are shared and plans are shaped. This year’s summit saw greater participation from the De La Salle Philippines Central House administration and members of the DLSP IP Commission reflecting the network’s strong commitment to working together in advancing intellectual property initiatives. With this year’s IP Summit, made possible through various members of the IP Commission's TWG.

The program began with a welcoming message from Chancellor Mr. Ferdinand Berba of DLSMHSI, who encouraged everyone that intellectual property (IP) is not just paperwork—it is a way to protect and fuel new ideas. Securing our inventions gives creators the confidence to share and build on each other’s work. In health care especially, patenting devices and treatments helps make innovations affordable and widely available. IP, then, becomes a springboard for collaboration and life-saving advances.

Our DLSP President, Mr. Edgar O. Chua aFSC, He then gave his keynote message, encouraging all schools to recognize how the IP Commission can contribute to building a stronger network for research and innovation. He also highlighted how tools such as AI can help improve the methods in managing and utilizing intellectual property across all networks.

This was followed by a message of support from Br. Mandy Co Dujunco, FSC, DTheol who shared a reflection on how the concept of IP has evolved over the years along with the founding of the IP Technical Working Group to what is now the IP Commission. He recalled a time when it wasn’t seen as necessary, but today, protecting our intellectual property is essential. As we strive to be of service, IP has become a vital form of support—not only in protecting our research, patents, researchers and staff, but also in protecting our students. It is a crucial service.

Atty. Christopher E. Cruz, PhD, Chair of DLSP IP Commission also shared the role of the IP Commission and plans for building a shared IP system across the De La Salle schools, with his team playing active roles to support the initiatives. 

The summit wasn’t just a talk—it was also a working session. Attendees were divided into three breakout groups based on the DLSP IP Commission’s Three-Year Strategic Priorities:

1. Network Wide IP Awareness and Education

2. Creation and Implementation of IP Policies across all Schools.

3. Provide IP Management services such as IP Protection, consulting, capacity building and technology transfer

Each breakout group proposed specific ideas and practical steps to move forward.Following their discussions, they presented their ideas during the plenary session, where they received feedback and support from fellow participants. This collaborative exchange allowed for further refinement of the commission’s initiatives  and encouraged more collaboration across all our De La Salle Philippines schools. With engagement by more experienced schools to support the development of our Mission Schools, we ensure that proposed actions are practical, aligned with our shared network goals, and tailored to each school's unique context.

To end the day, Atty. Cruz shared that the results of the summit will be presented at the upcoming DLSP Commissions - Chairs Assembly on 27 August 2025. As everyone wrapped up, it was clear that the Lasallian community is ready to take bigger steps in protecting and growing our Lasallian intellectual property.
