Last November 9, 2024, at the Pearlmont Hotel, Cagayan de Oro City, Rodolfo Dominguez Quizon, Jr., famously known as #DolphyJr., shared his powerful and deeply moving testimony during our event, “A HEART RENEWED.”

Dolphy Jr. opened his heart and life story, revealing how God’s grace transformed his journey of resilience and redemption. His testimony resonated with the audience, and the Holy Spirit moved mightily throughout the evening.

We are humbled to share that about 100 souls surrendered their lives to the Lordship and saving grace of our King, the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Hearts were broken, spirits were lifted, and lives were restored to God’s purpose. Many others experienced the revival and restoration of their faith, rekindling their relationship with the One who changes hearts of stone into hearts of flesh.

This evening was not just an event but a divine encounter where lives were renewed, hope was restored, and the love of Jesus Christ was magnified.

We extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who supported and attended this unforgettable gathering, especially to our sponsors and partners. Your prayers, presence, and contributions made this transformative evening possible.

To God be all the glory for the harvest of souls and the undeniable move of His Spirit during “A HEART RENEWED.”

Let’s continue to spread the Good News and witness the greatness of our God!

"And I will give them one heart, and a new spirit I will put within them. I will remove the heart of stone from their flesh and give them a heart of flesh." — Ezekiel 11:19

On December 4, 2023, five less fortunate couples came together in a profoundly moving Christian mass wedding, celebrating love, faith, and God’s divine intervention. These couples, from diverse Christian churches and backgrounds, stood united before God to exchange vows and proclaim their commitment to a Christ-led life. What made this occasion truly extraordinary was that some had recently accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior, surrendering to His Lordship just days before the ceremony—a powerful testament to God’s saving grace.

The couples’ journeys were marked by life’s struggles, yet through faith and the support of the Christian community, they arrived at the altar redeemed and renewed by God’s love. Their vows, spoken through trembling voices and tear-filled eyes, were more than promises to one another; they were declarations of trust and faith in the God who had transformed their lives and brought them together.

This remarkable event was made possible by the generosity of the Full Gospel Business Men’s Fellowship International (FGBMFI) CDO Downtown Chapter, who sponsored the wedding. By removing financial barriers, they gave these couples the gift of a Christ-centered union, a beautiful reflection of God’s provision and love in action.

Officiated by Rev. Rommel Calaycay of the Cagayan Alliance Bible Church, the ceremony was filled with heartfelt moments and the undeniable presence of the Holy Spirit. Rev. Calaycay’s Scripture-based message emphasized the sanctity of marriage as a holy covenant and the importance of making Christ the foundation of their relationships, touching the hearts of all who attended.

As the couples exchanged their vows and rings, the atmosphere overflowed with joy, hope, and worship. Families and friends bore witness to not just the union of hearts but the transformation of lives. These couples, once burdened by life’s challenges, now stood as living testimonies of God’s redeeming power to heal and restore.

The celebration concluded with a joyous fellowship meal, where prayers, blessings, and words of encouragement poured out for the newlyweds. It was a moment of unity and faith, reflecting the true essence of the body of Christ. These marriages are more than just unions; they are shining beacons of God’s grace, proving that no one is too lost for His love and no life too broken for His redemption. May these couples’ faith-filled journeys inspire others to trust in the unshakable foundation of Jesus Christ.

 On November 28, 2023, End Times | Bible Prophecy and The Last Days was held at Deluxe Hotel, Cagayan de Oro City, an impactful event that brought together believers and seekers to prepare for the imminent return of the Lord Jesus Christ. Sponsored by SERVANT Ministries, and in cooperation with FGBMFI CDO Downtown Chapter and Jesus For All Nations (JFA) Church, the gathering aimed to sound the alarm about Christ's second coming and the unparalleled tribulations that will follow. Over 100 attendees were deeply moved by the messages, leading many to inquire further about the Gospel and surrender their lives to Christ.

Bishop Bing Gadian opened the event with his stirring message, "Entering 7 Years of Tribulation," unveiling the signs of the tribulation period as prophesied in the Book of Revelation. He emphasized the need for spiritual vigilance, repentance, and unwavering faith in these critical times. His words served as a clarion call, urging everyone to seek refuge in Jesus Christ amidst the prophesied trials, prompting attendees to reflect on their readiness for the days ahead.

Following this, Ptr. Jun Sepulveda delivered an inspiring sermon titled "Preparing the Oil Lamps - Parable of the Ten Virgins," based on Matthew 25. He highlighted the significance of spiritual preparedness, symbolized by keeping oil lamps burning, and the necessity of a genuine relationship with the Lord. His message deeply resonated with the audience, encouraging them to remain steadfast and faithful as they anticipate the return of the Bridegroom, Jesus Christ.

This transformative event fulfilled its mission of awakening hearts to the urgency of Christ's return. Through the collaboration of SERVANT Ministries, FGBMFI CDO Downtown Chapter, and JFA Church, the gathering became a beacon of hope and truth, reminding everyone of the eternal promises found in Christ. It was a night of profound spiritual awakening, leaving a lasting impact on all who attended.

The FGBMFI Asia Pacific Global Chapter Meeting on June 22, 2024, was a deeply moving gathering that united businessmen and professionals from 15 countries under the theme "Two Becoming One," inspired by Ecclesiastes 4:12: "Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken." It was a powerful reminder that marriages rooted in Christ become unbreakable and serve as testimonies of His love and grace.

Keynote speaker, Mr. Garry Lou Balatero, shared a life-transforming testimony of how God used his wife to disciple him during his darkest days, when he had strayed far from the faith. Her steadfast love and obedience to God became the beacon that led him back to Christ. Garry also recounted his personal encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ in 2016, where he experienced Hades and Paradise—a moment that forever changed his life and ignited his mission to proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom of God with his wife by his side.

The testimonies of Sam Cing from Australia, Paul Chen from China, and Anthony Putihrai from Indonesia added even greater depth to the meeting. Each shared how God healed, restored, and strengthened their marriages, using them as vessels to reflect His glory. Their heartfelt stories brought tears to the eyes of many, revealing the beauty of God’s hand at work in the lives of ordinary people called to an extraordinary mission.

This gathering wasn’t just an event; it was an encounter with God’s presence and power. Attendees left inspired to build marriages that not only endure life’s storms but shine as living testimonies of His Kingdom. The meeting was a stirring reminder that with Christ as the third strand, no bond is too broken to be restored, and no mission is too great to fulfill. Together, we are called to bring His light to the nations.
