Special gathering uplifts Church officers from Sta. Cruz, Laguna District

The Church’s general treasurer, Brother Ernesto V. Suratos, officiated the holy gathering held at the house of worship of the Local Congregation of Sta. Cruz.

In his Bible-based homily, he reminded the brethren that it is God who places officers inside the Church for the benefit of those whom He has called. Accordingly, he exhorted the Church officers to remain steadfast in fulfilling their sacred duties even in the face of challenges in order to please Him, reassuring them that God Himself promised His help to His faithful servants.

“The words of our Lord God that we heard inspired us to keep our faith and continue with our duties,” said Edwin Abary, deacon from Pagsanjan Local Congregation.

Brother Suratos was accompanied by Brother Melvin Cayabyab, the district supervising minister, who said, after the event, “Special gatherings, such as this, are important. This occasion gives strength to the Church officers and inspires them to remain united with the Administration in participating to the activities being launched in the Church.”

“We are thankful to God and the Church Administration for special gatherings that the Church officers need for them to be effective helpers in the Church,” Brother Cayabyab said in behalf of the Church officers in the district. — With reports from INC News Section
