Three New District Elders in Southern Mindanao

On Monday, 9th of November 2015

Three new District Elders were ordained, Sunday, 8th November 2015 at our Tagum Church.  Arnoldo Banda-an for the area of Davao Occidental, Sabal Medie for South Cotabato and Sarangani. Freddie Nuyad for Davao del Norte and Davao del Sur. The Apostles Pascual and Bishop Muda have thereby received additional strong support for their big area of pastoral responsibility.

In a one-day District Rectors meeting at the Molave Hotel in Tagum the District Apostle lectured on themes like “Divine Election” and “God is faithful” The new Catechism in Q&A format was launched and also the Book “Word of Life 2016” with Divine Service Guide for one full year was introduced.

The Youth who had a separate program welcomed the District Apostle for an evening fellowship during which many questions were put on the floor. It was a true testimony of how serious our young Brothers and Sisters take matters of faith. The questions were going deep into understanding our church.

The Sunday sermon was based on Psalm 40:7+8.

God’s law and Jesus’ promise are for us. Out of love we ask for it and seek to do His will

Southern Mindanao is one of the strongest  new-apostolic  areas in the Philippines, second only to the Island of Negros. The mission work started in the 1980ties and was pioneered by the Nuyad family, mainly the late Apostle Francisco Nuyad and the retired Apostle Mercurio Nuyad. Now a new generation leadership is growing strongly.
