Led by Timothy Jan Mari Palao Tan, GS Student Council President

Grateful for the gift of my Xavier education,

and aware of my responsibilities as a Xaverian,

I, _______________________, do solemnly  pledge that I shall strive to live faithfully

according to the ideals and principles of my school.

I shall value the heritage of my forefathers

and carry out my duties and responsibilities

as a citizen of this nation.

Conscious of my worth as a human being,

I pledge to value and uphold the dignity of every person

through my words, deeds,

and the choices that I make.

I shall strive to develop my God-given talents,

and use them to serve my people,

especially the poor and the needy.

I shall work in harmony with others

to change this society

into one that is more just, more human,

and one more truly Christian.

I choose to follow Christ, our Lord,

as my Leader and Model.

In the spirit of the MAGIS,

I shall strive to live my life

in a more selfless, more generous,

and more total service of God and my neighbors,

so that I may turn out to be

a “man fully alive,

endowed with a passion for justice,

and the skills for development.”

In return, I shall seek only this reward:

that in fulfilling the Xavier Pledge,

I will find greater meaning in my life,

And I will make a difference in the lives of others.

This is my pledge

before my school, my family and before my God.
