Our Journey MMP begun doing church planting in every slum with a large number of people who came to know Jesus are youth from the community where we are ministering. When they receive Christ as Lord and Savior and follow Him, gradually they grow in their faith, mature in their character, become a responsible Christian and a model of their community, family, school and with their group/barkada. For the past nine years of church planting, we noticed that the number of young people who come to know Jesus are increasing. Youth who accepted Jesus
Christ are now reaching out to their friends, classmates and relatives. In spite of poverty and lack of material things, we witnessed how God changed their lives from darkness to light. Last year 2006, the Lord impressed on us the need for young potential leaders to be exposed and trained especially in the field of evangelism and leadership. The core group came up with a plan to conduct leadership training and workshop, evangelistic camp and other activities for the youth in order for them to be trained in the field of ministry as our service to God. Our Vision Christian leaders committed to lead other to God
Our Mission Preaching and teaching God’s word to all young people in our community and provide trainings and exposures for them to grow as Christian leaders.

Community and Church PartnerCommunity - Mobilizing youth in different slum communities/churches of Metro Manila and nearby rural communities. We have outreaches in Payatas, Montalban, Antipolo, Cainta, Taytay, Cavite, Las Pinas, Valenzuela, Novaliches, Balara and Fairview with an average of 10 youth actively involved in each community. Most of them are from poor family, incomes are below the minimum wage. Most of their parents are working as construction workers, vendors, doormat maker and scavengers. Church Partner - We partner with a local church where we endorse all youth we can bring. All of our church partners are located within the slum communities. In each area, we assign a youth coordinator and their job basically is to evangelize and organize young people. July 2008, by the grace of the Lord, we started our campus ministry at the University at Montalban Rizal and in God’s will, to begin the ministry at the Pamantasan ng Montalban.
Network As NGO we also do our best to work along with other agencies with the same passion in ministry especially among the poor. We seek assistance from other organization to fund our activities.
Our Core Values: Unity in the Spirit and Commitment to one another.
