Human spiritual formation is one of the thrusts of the school in realizing its aim for Integral Christian Education. This year, the Administration with the Pastoral Ministry Center aims for its students to have gone through an Onsite recollection at least once every school year, starting with the 3rd Grade till Senior High school.

The participants will get a deeper understanding of themselves as the primary focus of this retreat, which will last for two days. The most essential thing we have learned from this retreat is how to acknowledge and embrace who we are as a person in the eyes of God.

It started with a Holy Eucharist celebration presided by Rev. Father Russel Bantiles, CFD. After the Holy Mass, the morning session began with an inspirational message given by Sister Emelinda Falsis, F.I, Provincial Superior of Indico-Pacific Province. Sister Lynn talked about the need for Educators to form with a soul with genuineness and depth and CURA Personalis.&nbsp; She also shared in her talk that educators must have the virtue of humility, patience, and obedience. Through Sister Lynn\u2019s talk, teachers were able to understand the importance of nurturing the soul with observance of how the soul manifests itself through education in faith, character formation, intensification of the values formation of students, educating the entire person, accompanying the growth of young ones, and creating a space for listening and accompaniment. <a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/w3.stellamarisdavao.edu.ph\/?page_id=5474\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"http:\/\/172.104.187.74\/?p=1705\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator aligncenter has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cherishing \u2018power of moments\u2019<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p>Leaving behind the usual distractions they all face to grasp the opportunity for more time spent in prayer, contemplation and rekindling of their relationship with God, 27 administrators and coordinators, and 40 tenured teachers from Stella Maris Academy of Davao (SMAD) had their Ignatian annual retreat last May 11-13 and May 16-17 respectively.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe 3-day retreat helped subside the nervousness I felt as a first-time coordinator, and it changed my perspective.

And for giving back. Service to the community is a value we carry all year-\u2019round at Stella Maris Academy of Davao. For many, Christmas time is not as joyful as it should be. It\u2019s the reason why the school strives to do its part in bringing the joy of the season back to some of those who may not otherwise have a joyous Christmas. Simply by engaging in the most ordinary acts of love \u2013 sharing a joy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year\u2019s Christmas Fund Drive was a memorable time for the whole educative family because we celebrated the culmination of the 150th anniversary of the foundation of the Hijas de Jesus congregation. Three nearby barangays were selected namely; Barangay Governor Paciano Bangoy, Brgy. Kapitan Tomas Monteverde Sr., Barangay Poblacion District 20-B by the school\u2019s RCA, Sr. Patricia Anna Aragon, F.I. together with the school\u2019s Community Extension Coordinator.&nbsp; They received sacks of rice, boxes of canned goods, and noodles.&nbsp; Eighty families were selected appropriately by the barangay in charge of distribution.&nbsp;<a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/w3.stellamarisdavao.edu.ph\/?page_id=5200\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"http:\/\/172.104.187.74\/?p=1496\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator aligncenter has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SMAD\u2019s Transmission on the International Congress for F.I.
