The Brotherhood and Sisterhood Day was successfully conducted on January 25, 2026, at the UPF Peace Embassy, Quezon City, in partnership with 서울남부 금천교회 AMT (Align Membership Training). The activity was organized with the primary goal of strengthening camaraderie, unity, and meaningful relationships among the participants through interactive sessions, team-building activities, and fellowship.

In the morning, the participants first attended the Sunday Service delivered by Rev. Ronnie Sodusta, Regional Director of FFWPU Philippines. The message centered on inspiration, encouraging everyone to value unity, faith, and harmonious relationships, which set a meaningful tone for the rest of the day’s activities.

The program formally began with a welcome message from Engr. Seung Young Miles Fernandez, who emphasized the importance of building genuine brotherhood and sisterhood beyond cultural and national differences. His message created a warm, inclusive, and encouraging atmosphere that prepared the participants for a day of interaction and shared experiences.

This was followed by the “Get to Know Your Brothers and Sisters” session, where each participant had the opportunity to introduce themselves. This activity helped everyone become more familiar with one another, breaking initial barriers and creating a comfortable environment for communication and connection.

The highlight of the event was a series of team-building games designed to promote teamwork, attentiveness, cooperation, and fun. Participants actively engaged in games such as 7-Up, Follow the Command, Rock Paper Scissor Relay, and Guess the Word. These activities energized the group and encouraged collaboration, quick thinking, and mutual support among team members. Laughter and cheers filled the venue as participants worked together and enjoyed the friendly competition.

After the games, the participants shared a meal through food sharing, which further strengthened the sense of fellowship and community. This time allowed for informal conversations, deeper bonding, and the continuation of the positive atmosphere created throughout the program.

The event concluded with a group photo, capturing the joyful memories and unity formed during the activity. Overall, the Brotherhood and Sisterhood Day successfully fulfilled its purpose of fostering friendship, unity, cultural exchange, and a stronger sense of belonging among all participants.
