New Educators Towards Academic Excellence

by: Sem. Clemence Doria

ENTERING TO THE SEMINARY is not all about religious activities. The total package also includes intellectual formation. In her relentless pursuit for innovative learning strategies and to promote academic excellence, MHCCS always seeks for effective teachers who can educate the seminarians with the best education they can possibly acquire.

As the formation year 2006-2007 enters, the seminary welcomes new members of the faculty that would hone the seminarians’ academic growth to its fullness.

Ms. Janette Ubando
Ma’am Janette is the new professor of the sophomores in Chemistry. She hails from Bonuan, Gueset, Dagupan City. She had attained her Bachelor’s Degree in Pangasinan State University (PSU) in Uradaneta City. She is also a member of the faculty staff of the University of Pangasinan. In her eleven years of teaching, it is her first time to teach seminarians.

Ms. Jenny Agbuya
Ma’am Jenny, 20, a very dedicated teacher, is one of the youngest instructors in the seminary. She teaches Filipino subject to the Freshmen. She lives in Mangaldan, Pangasinan. She graduated at the University of Cordillera (UC) in Baguio City this year with the degree of B.S. Education. She also teaches at Colegio de Dagupan.

Mrs. Angelita Servito
Ma’am Angelita teaches the subject ‘Retorica’ for the sophomores. She graduated at the University of Pangasinan in 1973. Residing in San Jacinto, she lives with her 6 children. Her enthusiasm to share her knowledge to the seminarians has given her the opportunity to inspire them to continue their priestly aspirations. She believes in the saying, "Try and try until you succeed!"

Dra. Lucita Jose
Dra. Jose handles the Junior class in their General Psychology class. She lives in Sta. Barbara, Pangasinan. She is also teaching at the University of Pangasinan. She is not really new in the seminary because she has already been here also as a Psychology instructor several years ago.

Rev. Julius B. Cuison
Rev. Julius is a fresh member of the Lingayen-Dagupan Clergy as a newly ordained deacon last June 27, 2006. He handles the Sophomores in their Salvation History class. He comes from Mapandan, Pangasinan and currently assigned in the Parish of San Fabian. He graduated from this institution way back 1997. He finished his Theology just last March 2006 at the Immaculate Concepcion School of Theology in Vigan City. As a former graduate of this institution, his presence inspires the seminarians to continue their vocation. Rev. Julius firmly believes that you cannot give what you do not have.

Rev. Fr. Jerry B. Cera
Fr. Jerry teaches the Seniors in their Moral Philosophy class. He stays at the Mary Help of Christians Seminary in Binmaley, Pangasinan as the Assistant Spiritual Director. He is an alumnus of this institution and finished his theology at ICST in Vigan City. He was ordained as a priest last November 30, 2002. Fr. Jerry is also known for his great talents in music.

Rev. Fr. Reynaldo V. Romero
Fr. Rey, as he is fondly called, is the new teacher in Ancient Philosophy of the Sophomore class. He graduated his Philosophy and Theology at the University of Sto. Tomas (UST) with flying colors. Currently, he is the school director of the Malasiqui Catholic School. He may seem new to us but he was already assigned in this institution before as the Dean of Seminarians.
