Hope Channel Philippines is a religious network of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the Philippines. Its TV stations are owned by Gateway UHF Television Broadcasting, while its radio stations are either owned and/or operated by Digital Broadcasting Corporation or AdventistMedia.[3] Founded and launched on September 26, 2010, in the South Philippines[4] and in January 2011 in Luzon and Visayas.[5][6] It was first seen on UHF Channel 25 in Cagayan de Oro in the Northern Mindanao region.

In Luzon, this station aired from 5am-12 midnight on UHF Channel 45, Manila, but it became a full-time station in mid-2017 after Gateway UHF Broadcasting quietly ended their ties with 3ABN. The network programming is similar to Hope Channel International programming but in Filipino language.[7]
