Today, February 23, 2026, ten tribal pastors from the Hananuo Mangyan tribe in the mountains of Panaytayan, Mansalay, Oriental Mindoro will be coming down to the town of Roxas, Oriental Mindoro for a meeting. Let us pray that these tribal leaders will decide to become part of the TMI–TI training program in the coming year, 2027.
Many of them are excited—not only about the ministry and mission of TMI–TI—but also about something very simple yet very meaningful to them: the opportunity to eat at Jollibee for the first time. For most of us, eating at Jollibee may be ordinary. But for these Mangyan pastors, this will be their very first time stepping into a fast-food restaurant and tasting a meal there.
Many Mangyan only dream of experiencing Jollibee. For them, it is more than just food—it is an unforgettable moment, something they can proudly share with their tribe when they return to the mountains.
But beyond this simple joy is a greater purpose.
These pastors are leaders of their communities. They carry the spiritual future of their tribes on their shoulders. By joining TMI–TI, they will receive biblical training that will equip them to faithfully teach God’s Word in the mountains, disciple their people, and plant stronger churches among the unreached.
We challenge our partners and donors: STAND WITH US! Your support makes moments like this possible—not only a meal in town, but a life-changing opportunity for tribal leaders to be trained, strengthened, and sent back to their people with deeper knowledge of Scripture.
When you give to TMI–TI, you are not just supporting a school. You are investing in tribal pastors, in remote mountain churches, and in the next generation of Mangyan believers.
Pray. Partner. Support.
Together, we can help raise and equip more tribal leaders for God’s glory.
