“We are grateful to the Church Administration for allowing us to conduct this activity,” local KADIWA president, Trisha Cosme stated.

On August 16, 2026, the KADIWA Formal in the San Jose Local Congregation, Ecclesiastical District of San Jose, Mindoro Occidental, Philippines, brought together members of the said organization. It was held at Nathaniel’s Event Place.

Following a prayer led by Brother Edmond Pereyra, ministerial worker, Brother Arnel B. Ramos, the congregation’s resident minister, delivered the opening remarks. Afterward, interactive games brought joy and excitement to the attendees.

Also, INC original songs were performed by talented KADIWA members and officers. Alvin Molina performed his rendition of Tunay Kong Tahanan (My True Home). The duet of Janelle Ubaldo and Rochelle Carino sang Ikaw Ang Inspirasyon (You Are The Inspiration) while Laan Sa Akin (Meant For Me) by Ernest Romualdo and local KADIWA president, Trisha Cosme.

“I’m truly happy for I felt the love of my fellow KADIWA members throughout the activity,” expressed attendee Learnie Bengala. “All the conversations, laughter, and things we bonded over made the event memorable and inspired me all the more to participate in future Church activities,” she added.

Al Vincent Bandong, another attendee, said “I became more comfortable being around my fellow KADIWA members during this activity, which made me closer to them.”

Before the program concluded, ministerial worker Brother Justine Mendoza delivered the closing remarks, while fellow ministerial worker Brother Jhay Ulayao led the prayer after. Then, brethren who were the crowd favorite and who had the best attire as judged by the attendees themselves were given recognition.

For Vyenn Martines, local KADIWA vice president, they owe all the activity’s success to God for “it is Him Who moves us to inspire the brethren under our care to unite with all the activities being launched by the Church Administration. Certainly, it is also Him who granted us the success of this activity.”
