Although im no expert on the subject, my best guess would be the Spanish catholic (or is it Portugeuse) influences. Christianity was brought to the same way to the Americas.
To have power, to promote Christianity
The Philippines was the only colony Spain had in Asia. Spain was hoping to use the Philippines to get in on the spice trade business. It was also part of Spain's policy to convert Filipinos to Christianity and then to spread Christianity to other countries in Asia such as Japan and China.

Region 7 in the Philippines, also known as Central Visayas, has a rich culture influenced by its history of Spanish and American colonization. The region's culture is a blend of traditional Filipino practices, such as Sinulog festival in Cebu, and elements from the colonizers, seen in architecture, language, and religious practices. The people of Region 7 are known for their warm hospitality, colorful festivals, and strong connection to the sea.
Hopefully they do come to the Philippines someday.
Spain went into the Philippines in search of spices and metals, and came out with niether, but they did spread Christianity
Yes, ever since Catholicism (and Christianity) was introduced in the Philippines for the past century.
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.
