On July 5, 2026, a total of 1,949 choir members across the Ecclesiastical District of Paniqui, Tarlac attended a special gathering aimed at their further edification in the faith.

Two houses of worship served as venues: that of the Local Congregation of Paniqui as the host site, and that of the Local Congregation of Camiling connected to the former via videoconferencing.

The Church Administration sent Brother Arnel Solano, minister of the gospel, to officiate at the sacred occasion. After the opening prayer led by Brother Judee Lee Quiray, Brother Solano preached God’s will written in the Bible. He encouraged the choir members to remain zealous in fulfilling their duties despite various trials and hardships so that they can all the more bring glory to the Lord God.

“This special gathering truly provided us with inspiration having strengthened our faith and hope, which are exactly what we need to overcome the various trials that we encounter in our lives,” said Randy Daquigan, choir president from the Dicolor Congregation, who attended the occasion along with his family.

Darlene Guiang, from the same congregation, said, “I feel God’s love through His words. I promise to be obedient in all of His commands.”

“Notwithstanding heavy persecutions, I never give up. I trust in God as my source of strength. He is always ready to help me,” said Eleijean Fernando Hortizuela of the Nancamarinan Congregation.
