The University Church continues its outreach programs especially during this time of the pandemic.
The University Church (UC) distributed Christmas gifts to 92 pastors last December 23, 2020.
The church released 100,000 pesos to be distributed to pastors of the Convention Baptist Ministers Association (CBMA). Recipients were chosen by CBMA chapter presidents.
“The amount is very small, but we want the pastors to know we appreciate them even in the most challenging circumstances,” said University Church Senior Pastor Rev. Cris Amorsolo Sian.
The chosen recipients are among those assigned in remote churches.
There were a total of 92 recipients from Luzon (5), Mindoro (5), Palawan (6), Romblon (7), Iloilo (15), Negros (15), Capiz (7), Antique (6), Aklan (6), South Eastern Mindanao (7), Western Mindanao (7) and Eastern Mindanao (6).
“The UC community feels blessed especially when the recipients called personally to express their gratitude. During these uncertain times, we hope to be a channel of God’s love and blessings to others. The church aims that this endeavor will ignite a spark and create a ripple effect so other people and churches will be inspired to give and share,” said Rev. Sian
