Think about this...
"Hindi lahat ng hindi nakikita ay nakakalimot o nanlalamig. Ang iba ay inilayo talaga ng Diyos para lumawak pa ang Kaniyang ministry at magkaroon naman ng pagkakataon ang iba na tumayo at lumago. Ang mga pinagpapala din sa ibang bansa ang malaking support sa mga church projects."

declared top secret.

Truly, "there is no place like home Church!"
But we are more than a church.
We are a family since then.
But things don't work out as we expected...
Something bad occuranced even no one wanted it to happen.
Our Church was split then into two.
It was so painful but all things work together for good. The ministry was spread and its members were scattered to places we did not even imagine. The Word of God spread even to other nations of the world. Yet suprisingly, it started in Karpa Street, fronting the house of Sis. Puring, under a tree. It was moved at Kitang as it started to grow. Then afterward, history follows.

Mga dati nating nakasama ...
Sa In Christ We Live ka man napabilang o sa Life in Christ, ito na ang Kalahati ng Buhay ng marami sa atin. May mga nag-alay ng pangarap at propesiyon alang-alang sa Tawag ng Panginoon.
Ang mga nagawa mo noon at mga kaloob ang siyang dahilan bakit tayo nandirito pa hanggang sa ngayon.
