Two months after Typhoon Rai (local name: Odette) ravaged southern Philippines, the roll out of aid provided by the Iglesia Ni Cristo (Church Of Christ) has continued. For three consecutive days, Aid to Humanity events were held by the ecclesiastical districts of Kabankalan City, Negros Occidental; Carcar City, Cebu; and Bohol on February 9 to 11, 2022, respectively.

Kabankalan City, Negros Occidental
Aid to Humanity in this ecclesiastical district were simultaneously held at four major sites, which were the respective house of worship compound of the local congregations of Isabela, Bantayan, Sipalay, and Kabankalan City. 5,000 relief packages were distributed. The relief efforts were supervised by Brother Amando Bariring Jr., district supervising minister.

Vergineta Acuyan from the Local Congregation of Kabankalan City, said, “We benefited previously, right after the typhoon wreaked havoc in our province. This is the second time. I thank Brother Eduardo V. Manalo, our Executive Minister, who looks after us continuously. Most of all, I thank God Who keeps us safe in the midst of this perilous world.”

Carcar City, Cebu
“Thank you. This is a great help to my family,” said Sandy Mae Tiro, a Catholic member. Led by Brother Sergio Vista, district supervising minister, ministers and ministerial workers handed over 7,000 relief packages first to the residents in Mainggit, then those in Toledo City.

“Despite the devastation we experienced, the brethren neither lost hope nor weakened in the faith because, first of all, God’s safekeeping was felt. And the Church Administration is also there, taking care each and every one of us,” attested Brother Sergio.

Bohol
At Tagbilaran City, Bohol, many brethren volunteered to prepare 5,000 relief packages, which were then transported to other major sites, namely the respective house of worship compound of the local congregations of Getafe, Nueva Esperanza, San Jose, Talibon, Ubay, and Ubujan.

As it is the third Aid to Humanity event in Bohol District after the onslaught of calamity, Ronald Gomup-as enthused, “It feels comforting when help is at reach, and continuous.”

“We made sure that as we cater for the needs of our brethren, nonmembers were also provided,” said Brother Raul Cervantes, district supervising minister. — With reports from INC News Section

As in other provinces battered by super typhoon Rai (local name: Odette) in early December last year, the Iglesia Ni Cristo (Church Of Christ) has continued to hold outreach activities in Palawan, Philippines to send aid to the affected citizens.

The Ecclesiastical District of Palawan North held Aid to Humanity events on January 22 and February 9, 2022 in the compounds of various local congregations under its supervision.

On the first date, hundreds of relief packages were transported to each of the hardest-hit local congregations, namely, Abongan, Binduyan, Cawacayan, Desay Extension, Jolo Roxas, Latungay Ext, Lucbuan, Macarascas, Magara, Maoyon, New Canipo, Pagdanan, Panindigan, Port Barton, Roxas, Sabang Ext, Sader, Salvacion, Sandoval, TDC, and Sta. Teresita Group Worship Service (GWS).

Five thousand more relief packages were distributed on February 9, from the major sites—the houses of worship of the local congregations of Binduyan, Magara, Roxas, and Abongan—to its neighboring congregations.

Financial assistance was also extended to the victims of the calamity, primarily those whose houses were severely damaged.

“This is the third of a series of Aid to Humanity events conducted here in our district,” said Brother Jovelito Manuba, assistant district supervising minister. The first one took place just days after Odette ravaged the island.

Rafael Bermudo, from the Local Congregation of Macarascas, said, “Praises be to God for He kept us safe when the storm hit here. And the relief packages keep reaching us, for which we likewise thank Brother Eduardo V. Manalo, our Executive Minister.”

On behalf of the district, Brother Bright Ballesteros, the district supervising minsiter, said, “We thank so much our Executive Minister for sending additional aid.” — With reports from INC News Section

INC sends aid to evacuees from Taal Volcano unrest

With the January 2020 eruption of Taal Volcano still fresh on their minds, residents of several towns in Batangas province went on preemptive evacuation just hours after a phreatomagmatic event on the afternoon of July 1, 2021.

This was followed by another eruption three days after. Though less alarming than last year’s eruption, it nevertheless brought fear and hardship to the residents, especially of villages in the permanent danger zone.

Mindful of their needs, the Iglesia Ni Cristo (Church Of Christ) promptly sent aid to benefit both members and nonmembers alike.

On July 9, Brother Eduardo V. Manalo, the Executive Minister of the Church Of Christ, approved the urgent sending of aid to the affected residents through the leadership of the Ecclesiastical District of Batangas North.

Brother Eraño Augusto, district supervising minister, stressed the timeliness of the humanitarian assistance. “For their safety, the residents are prohibited to go fishing at the [Taal] lake. The crops planted [by villagers around Taal] have all dried up. So their livelihood is greatly affected,” he said.

In a turn-over ceremony held at the Lipa City Hall, the local government received thousands of relief packages. Mr. Percival Lojo, city administrator, said, “The whole Lipaeño community wholeheartedly thank the Iglesia Ni Cristo for again reaching out to us in this time of pandemic. These will augment [supplies] for the daily needs of our residents.”

Muslims in Lipa City were among the beneficiaries. Mr. Mondato Motilan Macapaar, Muslim community head, said, “Thank you, Brother Eduardo Manalo, for looking after us. We may be from different religions but the Iglesia Ni Cristo always help our community here. We will never forget that.”

Later that day, Brother Augusto led the ministers, ministerial workers, and Church officers in bringing thousands more relief packages to the respective houses of the brethren. On behalf of the district, he said, “Thank you so much Brother Eduardo V. Manalo for providing for the members’ needs, just as you did last year.” — With reports from INC News Section
