Why did American missionaries want to Christianize the Philippines?

One answer is that the Spaniards were fervent Christians and Christianity, at its very heart, is a missionary religion. The Jews brought Christianity to the Romans, and the Romans brought Christianity to the Spanish. The Spanish then brought it to the Philippines. Christianity is the greatest news that men have ever gotten, the very basis of it is to be spread and propagated.
