The month of October 2026 saw brethren in Project 4 Local Congregation, in Central District, Philippines, enthusiastically participating in a series of activities in commemoration of their congregation’s 54th anniversary.
On October 8, the Central District supervising minister, Brother Diosdado F. Dades, led them in a worship service at their house of worship.
Two days later, the congregation held was a Fun Run along J.P. Rizal, D. Tirona, and Legazpi Streets of Barangay Milagros, Quezon City. As a preparation, it was preceded by a prayer led by the congregation’s Christian Family Organizations (CFO) overseer, Brother Junerick Estabillo, followed by a brief warm-up exercise led by Brother Izrael Bautista, the local Buklod president.
“An activity like this helps keep the body healthy and strong,” said Ricardo Canlas, a deacon.
At the same village a week after, on October 17, many brethren united with a clean-up drive under the INC Giving project. Coordinated with the barangay captain, the socio-civic activity was aimed at in helping maintain the surroundings’ cleanliness.
“It’s a wonderful opportunity to show care for the environment while also being a good opportunity for us to get some exercise,” said Domingo Maestre Jr., congregation SCAN president,
The next day, the Buklod, KADIWA, Binhi, and Children’s Worship Service (CWS) organizations conducted a joint monthly meet-up. Part of the activity was viewing an exhibit, bearing Church’s current theme for all its activities, “Stand Firm in the Faith, Our Salvation Is At Hand,” which featured photographs of the congregation’s past activities. These were taken by photography-inclined brethren some of whom received awards also during the meetup.
One of those whose work was recognized was KADIWA member Ched Sipin who said, “Activities like this that spark interest and pave the way for brethren to get to know each other and grow closer are a big help in strengthening us in the faith, also cultivating among us that sense of belongingness.”
On October 24, the congregation conducted a Pasugo: God’s Message magazine distribution drive in three villages, namely, Brgy. Escopa III, Brgy. Escopa IV, and Gawad Kalinga Munting Pamayanan PWD Village. This was also in preparation for the scheduled evangelical mission for the proclamation of God’s words.
In the evangelical mission held three days after, Brother Mateo Fajardo III, resident minister, taught from the Bible the solution to people’s woes—the worst being condemned on Judgment Day—which is to join and remain a member of the true Church Of Christ.
In an interview, Brother Fajardo attested that “the brethren were filled with joy” from the activities. On their behalf, he added, “We will continue our wholeheartedly unity with all the activities launched by the Church Administration.”
