Introduction

On the Third Day Renewal and Formation Center (OTTD) is a non-profit, ecumenical ministry dedicated to spiritual accompaniment for those who want to seek God and desire to respond to His call .

On the Third Day (OTTD) adheres to empowering disadvantaged individuals and communities by providing them with the necessary resources and support, to stand up and be equipped to face the rigors of life

With a firm belief in the power “a holding space”, we have been moved by the Spirit to accompany those who desire to discover and respond to their calling. Our ministry empowers people to be more aware of themselves and of God, embrace the realities of life, and journey with an authentic community for spiritual transformation.

Ministry Areas

OTTD focuses on the Three Pillars of our ministry:

Scripture

The inspired writings in the Bible guides our lives as true followers of Christ. The gospel stories, wisdom from the prophets, and the lives of Biblical characters enlighten our minds and hearts, speak to our unique experiences, give us joy and consolation, and draw us closer to Him who is Word incarnate. The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola and all our retreats and recollections all involve the reading of the sacred Scriptures.

Creation

Everything that surrounds us is a reflection of God. Through His creation we are able to feel God’s presence and experience His boundless love. Creation includes nature and all life forms in it, the natural forces at work, and the beautiful landscapes and sceneries that all speak of God’s greatness. The Eco-Spirituality & Retreat Center where we hold our retreats is our sacred space where one can connect to God. The silence and solitude in a beautiful place all contribute to enriched prayer life and greater self and God awareness which ignite one’s creativity. Creativity, in all its forms, is a big part of being fully alive.

Psychology

Our psychospiritual approach allows for a more holistic view of the human person. Through the help of psychology, we can have a deeper understanding of human behavior and its physiological and sociological influences. As we talk about faith and movement of the spirit in each person, we also take into account some important considerations such as developmental stages, consciousness and unconsciousness, personality types, and coping and defense mechanisms.

Community Development

OTTD aims to create self-reliant communities by addressing critical infrastructure needs, such as clean water, sanitation, and housing. The organization also invests in community-led projects that promote social cohesion and cultural enrichment.
