Explanation:
American missionary activities came as a result of the deep rooted influence which Catholicism had in Philippine life, almost in all aspects.

In order to influence Philippine life and move them away from the cultural influences of Spanish Catholic rule, American missionaries received support from the U.S. Government as well.

Bernardo Vicente de Gálvez y Madrid, 1st Viscount of Galveston, 1st Count of Gálvez, (23 July 1746 in Macharaviaya, Málaga, Spain – 30 November 1786) was a Spanish military leader and colonial administrator who served as colonial governor of Spanish Louisiana and Cuba, and later as Viceroy of New Spain.
Gálvez aided the American Thirteen Colonies in their quest for independence and led Spanish forces against Britain in the Revolutionary War, defeating the British at the Siege of Pensacola (1781) and conquering West Florida. Following Gálvez's successful campaign the whole of Florida was ceded to Spain in the Treaty of Paris. He spent the last two years of his life as Viceroy of New Spain, succeeding his father Matías de Gálvez y Gallardo. The city of Galveston, Texas, was named after him.
Gálvez is one of only eight people to have been awarded honorary United States citizenship.
