THE SAN JUAN DE DIOS EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION - HOSPITAL, the oldest private hospital in the Philippines, had its beginnings in 1578 with the establishment of two bamboo and nipa “wards” by a Franciscan lay brother, Fray Juan Clemente. Unable to learn the language, Fray Clemente dedicated his life to preaching the gospel and caring for the sick and the needy of Manila. In 1596, La Hermanidad de la Misericordia (Confraternity of Mercy), formed by the Franciscans, assumed the work of charity started by Fray Clemente. John of God took over the administration of what was to become the Hospital de San Juan De Dios in 1656. By virtue of a Royal Order issued by Queen Isabella II of Spain in 1865, the Hijas de la Caridad (Daughters of Charity of St. John of God in the administration of the hospital.

On this Feast of the Queenship of Mary, we reflect on her profound "yes" to God. Her surrender, despite initial struggle, reminds us that "nothing will be impossible with God." 🕊️ This powerful truth is the very foundation of our Miracle Building. Just as Mary was called to be a vessel for a miracle, we are called to be handmaids of the Lord, bringing light and healing to our community. ❤️‍🩹 By supporting the construction of this new home for our college and hospital, you are joining us in our "yes" to God's purpose. 🙏

Today, on the Feast of the Queenship of Mary, we honor her not only as the Queen of Heaven 👑 but also as a testament to the power of a "yes" to God's purpose. 🙏

The Gospel of Luke reminds us of Mary’s profound response: "Here am I, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me according to your word." ✨ Her total surrender, despite an initial struggle, opened the door to a miracle—a promise that "nothing will be impossible with God." 🙌

This is the very foundation of our Miracle Building. 🏗️ It is our "yes" to God's call to serve in charity, to bring a great light to those who live in darkness, as prophesied in Isaiah. This building will be a testament to our faith that, with God's grace, what may seem impossible is always possible. 🌟

Just as Mary was called to be the mother of our Lord, we are called to be the handmaids of the Lord, dedicating this new home for our college and hospital to her. By continuing her mission of healing and education, we celebrate her queenship of enduring love and mercy. ❤️

Join us in our "yes" to this miracle. Support the construction of the Miracle Building and help us bring a great light to our community. 💖
