PHILIPPINES | Baptisms at Iligan

September 17, 2015 Filed Under: Newsletters, Newsletters | Philippines

New Philippines FLAGTAGPraise the Lord that His Holy Spirit is bringing blessing to the churches of the Philippine Advent Christian Conference.
Conference President Efren Miranda writes…

“Philippine Advent Christian Conference (PACC)
Iligan Churches work toward 20/20 Vision.

Two local churches situated in Iligan City came on August 31, 2015, to hold baptismal rite to twenty-four new believers at one of the beaches in this city.

Rev. Virgilio Pallo, the senior pastor of In Christ Glory Church (ICGC), along with a few church leaders are seen in pictures below implementing baptism by immersion to seventeen believers. This concluded the three-day Leaders’ Weekend Retreat the church conducted recently.

The said retreat is one of the basic activities now conducted in churches who are implementing the Intensified Cell Group Strategy of the PACCI. During this said affair, those who have made a commitment to receive Christ as their Lord and Savior are led to fully grasp the Christian life – the benefits which go along with it and then how will they live in conformity to the Master’s purpose. At the end of the retreat, each is accommodated or encouraged to belong to a small group for a weekly Bible instruction.

Apparently, nineteen individuals had committed to follow Christ’s example of baptism, but for a valid reason [two] failed to appear in the actual schedule.

Simultaneously, a few meters on the right side, was the New Life Fellowship conducting water baptism to seven individuals who are products of an outreach ministry led by Pastor Jedno Pabayo at Barangay Tipanoy, situated eight kilometers away from the main church. Baptisms in Iligan City churches that day equalled to 24 individuals. The New Life Fellowship leaders report they are set to officially open a new church plant at Maramag, Bukidnon this coming September 19, 2015.

Surely, PACCI’s vision 20/20 is inevitable – if each part of the Conference plays its role.”

Please pray that the Lord will bring much blessing to and through these new members of His great, worldwide family.
