The Center for Christian Education, situated beside the University Church, was dedicated last November 21, 2021.
Central Philippine University held the dedication service of the Center for Christian Education of the University Church on November 21, 2021.
From its groundbreaking eight years ago, the Christian Education edifice has finally been erected beside the University Church.
In his words of inspiration, University President Teodoro C. Robles thanked the people “who made this project possible” and hoped that “the mission of this church continues and there will be full use of this facility in the service of the Lord.” On the other hand, Atty. Von Lovel D. Bedona, CPU Board of Trustees Chairman from 2017 to 2021 expressed his gratitude to God that this project has come to a realization and reminded everyone to maximize the use of the new building as a steward of God’s property and assets for His mission.
Led by the University Church Senior Pastor Rev. Cris Amorsolo V. Sian, the Center for Christian Education was dedicated “for worship, prayers and praise for teaching young and olds and preaching of the everlasting gospel, for the comfort of all who mourn, strength to those who are tempted and light who seek the way.”
This two-storey building has for its function the chapel for mortuary, rooms for Sunday School, halls, among others. Furthermore, this aims to cater to different church auxiliary organizations in holding their events.
The University Church and the CPU, in general, recognized and expressed “deep appreciation for the donors, and its builders with gratitude to God.”
