The Church Administration approved the establishment of Mangaldan Congregation’s Osiem-Antimano Extension. Brother Franklin G. Villamar, Lingayen, Pangasinan District’s supervising minister, officiated at its inaugural worship service on May 13, 2026.

“I’m truly glad that the Lord God granted our prayers. We have a place of worship that is nearer to us,” said Veronica Antimano, a finance officer, who volunteered a part of her property at 201 Prestosa, Brgy. Osiem, Mangaldan, Pangasinan to be used as the place of worship, which is roughly four kilometers from that of the Mangaldan Congregation.

During his preaching of God’s words, Brother Villamar emphasized that one of the great blessings that members of the true Church Of Christ have is the forgiveness of their sins because of Christ’s blood. By virtue of this privilege, Church members have the right to pray to God and be answered, the right to worship Him, and above all, the living hope of salvation come Judgment Day.

In an interview afterwards, Brother Villamar attested, “The brethren are thankful to God for His constant care they receive through the Church Administration. This extension being established renewed the zeal of the faithful in serving Him no matter what they face.”

The district supervising minister also exhorted the attendees to never stop sharing the true faith to their loved ones. After all, the Bible emphasizes that salvation can only be attained inside the true Church Of Christ. On her part, a deaconess, Magdalena Visperas, said, “I promise to devote myself in helping share the true faith. I will fulfill my duty as long as I live.” — With assistance from Jilbert Sevilla
