Members of the Iglesia Ni Cristo (Church Of Christ) around the world again united in fulfilling their Christian duty to make the gospel of salvation known to as many people as possible.
This was during the worldwide evangelical mission that the Deputy Executive Minister Brother Angelo Eraño V. Manalo presided over on September 16, 2025.
In the study of God’s words, Brother Angelo Manalo cited Bible verses showing how God desires not only to bless them in this life but grant them grace of salvation and eternal life on the condition that they faithfully obey all of His commandments. Then he expounded on the teaching of God’s Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, on the utmost importance of entering His fold—the Church Of Christ—for people to be saved on Judgment Day.
The Deputy Executive Minister’s preaching and event’s whole proceeding were streamed live to 3,222 sites, mostly houses of worship, around the world from the host site, the worship building of the Local Congregation of San Francisco, Ecclesiastical District of Central, in Quezon City, Philippines.
The host site was filled to capacity with invited guests brought along by brethren from the local congregations of Bago Bantay, Pugad Lawin, Araneta, Galas, and La Loma, aside from San Francisco. In the host district alone, the total number of guests brought into all of its sites reached 10,000.
“Thanks to God, our efforts in preparing for this activity did not end up in vain,” the San Francisco Congregation’s head deacon Alfonso Ayun Jr. said in an interview. “For, despite the impending inclement weather, the brethren in our congregation were not hindered from bringing in guests who were able to listen to God’s commandments written in the Bible.”
“The message was delivered clearly. The Lord God and the Lord Jesus Christ want us to become members of the Church Of Christ so that our services will not be in vain and we will be saved”, expressed a guest by the name of Amador Esteban. Another guest who introduced himself as Rudy Wayno said, “Upon hearing the lesson, I was moved to know more about the Church Of Christ for this is what God wants me to do.” Both guests decided to further examine the teachings of the Bible upheld by the Iglesia Ni Cristo.
“The 16 years of the dynamic leadership of Brother Eduardo V. Manalo, our beloved Executive Minister, has truly inspired the brethren to [more fervently] take part in various Church endeavors,” Central District Light of Salvation overseer Brother Jefferson Bayaca said. “As a proof, the brethren strived to invite many people to listen to the study of God’s teachings upheld by the Church.” From the number of guests during the worldwide evangelical mission, “many have expressed their intent to further examine those [biblical] beliefs,” he added.
