Iglesia Ni Cristo (Church Of Christ) members from all local congregations in the Ecclesiastical District of Pampanga North, in the Philippines, gathered at the Angeles City Sports Complex on August 16, 2026 for an INConcert.
Before the musical event in the evening, held as part of their commemoration of the Church’s 112th anniversary, a Trade Fair was conducted. It was officially opened through a ribbon-cutting ceremony led by Brother Ynad Pascual, district Christian Family Organizations (CFO) overseer.
Several booths featuring various CFO activities were set up outside the venue, where brethren enjoyed participating in the different interactive activities.
Among them was Ria de Guzman from the Mabalacat City Congregation. She said, “I appreciate all the effort put into organizing the trade fair. Everything was well thought out. While the brethren eagerly anticipated the INConcert, they were also able to enjoy fun-filled activities at the different booths.”
Afterwards, the INConcert commenced. Brother Albert Dy, district Light of Salvation overseer, led the opening prayer and Brother Manny Mañebog Sr., assistant district supervising minister, delivered the opening remarks.
Attendees were then treated to live rendition of the INC original music by talented brethren representing various CFO, including Shine, Tatlong Araw at Tatlong Gabi (Three Days and Three Nights), Ang Sugo ng Diyos sa mga Huling Araw (God’s Messenger in these Last Days), Mabigay-luwalhati (To give glory), Share It with the World, Salamat po, Ka Eduardo (Thank you, Brother Eduardo).
The program concluded with back-to-back performances of Nananalig (Believing) by select members of the Children’s Worship Service (CWS) and Kabataang Iglesia Ni Cristo (Youth of the Church Of Christ) by Radiance and Daybreak Isla Bands of the INC Music Department. Between the musical performances, the brethren watched audiovisual presentations featuring the Church’s history from the administration of Brother Felix Y. Manalo, God’s Messenger in these last days, to the present administration of Brother Eduardo V. Manalo, the Executive Minister. The presentation also featured stories of faith of some brethren and Church officers.
Brother Arnel A. Agorilla, district supervising minister, led the closing prayer.
Brother Spencer Quillayen, district safety overseer, observed, “The brethren who performed brought joy to their fellow brethren, strengthening their bond with one another, and inspiring them to continue serving God with enthusiasm.”
Ofelia Chan, one of the choreographers from the EGM Avenue Congregation, said, “I’m grateful that I’m able to use my talent to help the brethren, especially during Church activities. I’m thankful whenever I’m able to inspire others by simply sharing my talent with them.”
Brother Abel Roman, resident minister of the Sapang Maisac Congregation, said, “Having this kind of event was a wonderful way to celebrate how God has blessed the Church throughout its 112 years.” — With reports from Myn Tinio and Gabrielle Delos Santos
