“It’s relevant and important to build new houses of worship, through the guidance of Brother Eduardo V. Manalo, because in our time, more and more people are joining the Church,” said Brother Florence Simodlan, resident ministerial worker. “Here, in this holy place, we can render to God our worship service and ask for His blessings so that we can all the more be strengthened in our faith.”

“Since we didn’t have a permanent place of worship, we moved places to another several times. That’s why this new and permanent house of worship is vital so we can peacefully worship our Lord God,” enthused Eliseo Atienza, one of the pioneer members and the congregation’s first head deacon.

“I’m forever grateful to witness the dedication of our new house of worship. I pray to God to add more years of my life so I can still serve and worship Him,” Milagros Cortez, a choir member and also one of the pioneer members in the Congregation, expressed. — With reports from INC News Section
