The story of a young man named Guillermo Correces who was a self-supporting student at Philippine Union College and somehow finished his degree in teaching but due to Gods over arching plan for his life, he was led into a full-time career of drafting and building schools and institutions for the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the Philippines. He managed to start up with a draft of the Philippine Publishing House, then was called to teach at West Visayan Academy where he was led to utilize his skills in drafting and construction to upgrade and erect new infrastructure for the Academy and from there his continued calls led him to Mindanao and build a hospital and in Mindanao, a new college was founded and he was given the appointment to build the college from scratch and so we have Mountain View College today, and before his retirement he was part of the growth of the South Philippine Union Conference as it envisioned new directions in education and medicine by building the Davao Adventist Hospital and the South Philippine Union Conference headquarters and in parallel started the development of the now existing South Philippine Adventist College in Managa. And the first survey and draft plan of Adventist University of the Philippines.
