About the House

Once a tax collector, St. Matthew was transformed by a single call: "Follow me." The House of St. Matthew carries that same spirit – turning talents into service, creativity into compassion. Anchored on Setonian core values, the house fosters a caring, close‑knit environment where every member is valued. House Parents: Sir Bret Elseario & Ms. Noah Shen Datinginoo.

"Every outreach is a masterpiece; every member an artist of mercy."
