The San Antonio Extension of the Local Congregation of Tubigan in the Ecclesiastical District of Sta. Rosa City, Laguna has been elevated as a local congregation. Its inaugural worship service in that status took place on June 3, 2026 at its place of worship.

Brother Eric B. Zaratan, district supervising minister, officiated at the sacred gathering. During his preaching, he exhorted the brethren to press onwards to further victories with God’s works that were entrusted to them in order for them to grow not only in number but more so in the faith.

Alfredo A. Salaysay, who generously lent his land and the existing structure for the place of worship, expressed his profound joy for “God heard our years of prayer that this extension become a full-fledged local congregation. All that we have comes from Him, that is why my family and I will continue to help in providing the necessities of this place of worship and participate in all the activities that will also be held here.”

“On behalf of the brethren here, we also extend our gratitude to the Church Administration for guiding us in every step of the way to make this aspiration come to life,” said Wilfredo M. Amaro, head deacon.

Brother Karl Paulo M. Belara, resident ministerial worker, firmly believes that this event “filled the brethren, not just with so much joy, but further strengthening of their faith in serving God.” He added, “I’ll continue to assist the Church Administration in nurturing the spiritual being of Church members here by constantly teaching them God’s words and leading them in the unceasing unity in all the Church’s endeavors.”

The San Antonio Congregation is located at Block 9 Lot 1, Road 14, Barangay Langkiwa, Biñan City, Laguna, Philippines.
