Philippines Partner Church

Unitarians and Universalists in the Philippines

PictureClick image to view larger.
Since 2008, First Unitarian Universalist Church of San Diego has been honored to be a Partner Church with the UU congregation at Malingin in the Philippines. 

Partnerships with churches who share our religious values around the world forge connections and build lasting relationships that strengthen each others’ faith and open us all to new vistas of understanding. ​Together we are stronger, our congregations grow and we enrich our religious traditions. Partnerships provide individuals, small groups and full congregations a way to connect with the larger fellowship of our faith. Our models are not based on charity - we value building relationships between UUs that benefit all in both small and large ways - improving cultural understanding, supporting communities and helping to develop individual, religious, educational and economic opportunities. ​
​For more information on the UU Church of the Philppines, visit their Facebook page.

Donate to our Partner Church Student Scholarship Fund

Young Malingan student
At the heart of our support for the Malingan congregation is our Student Scholarship Fund. Money gathered goes directly to supporting student achievements. Our shared values of liberty of conscience and individual thought in matters of faith, the inherent worth and dignity of every person; justice and compassion in human relations; and responsible stewardship of the earth’s living system are values that are needed all around the world - not just here in the United States. ​You are heartily invited to make a donation of any amount. Be sure to note on the form that it is intended for our Partner Church in the Philippines. Make a donation.
