Marikina, Philippines – In celebration of 4th Watchers Month, the PMCC (4th Watch) successfully conducted District-Wide Leadership Seminars across multiple locales, both in the Philippines and abroad. With the central schedule set for August 13–15, each district also hosted sessions at times most suited to their participants.
The seminars aimed to equip pastors, Bible students, Kawan leaders, ministry pastors, and church officers with the knowledge, skills, and spiritual insight necessary to fulfill God’s mission during the Season of Expansion. More than just training, the gatherings also served as venues for fellowship, empowerment, and unity, strengthening the leaders’ commitment to the Church’s apostolic mission.
A Global Participation of Leaders
Districts from Occidental Mindoro, Eastern Batangas, Eastern Laguna, Pampanga, Panay, and even international churches in the Bay Area and Central Valley participated in the Church-wide program. Attendees included ministers, elders, youth officers, Kawan leaders, and adult ministry leaders, all united with a common goal of growing in leadership and faith.
Training Grounded in Apostolic Doctrine
The seminars featured workshops, panel discussions, interactive exercises, and reflection periods, all designed to ground leaders in Apostolic doctrine while strengthening their practical leadership skills. Breakout sessions addressed the unique needs of various ministry departments with focused topics such as:
-
“Elders’ Accountability in the Revived Church” – for elders
-
“The Power of a Revived and Generous Leadership” – for adult ministry leaders
-
“Awakening the Leader Within You” – for youth leaders
These sessions allowed participants to share experiences, discuss challenges, and develop real-life strategies for evangelism, pastoral care, and community service.
Building Spiritual Preparedness and Servant Leadership
Facilitators highlighted that true leadership in the Season of Expansion requires more than skills and knowledge—it demands spiritual preparedness, prayerful dedication, humility, and a servant’s heart. Leaders were encouraged to apply what they learned not only in organizational tasks but also in mentoring, discipleship, and community outreach.
Fellowship and Lasting Impact
Beyond structured learning, the seminars fostered fellowship and networking opportunities. Leaders encouraged one another, exchanged ministry experiences, and built stronger inter-district relationships, reinforcing the truth that leadership is a shared responsibility.
Participants returned to their respective communities spiritually refreshed, equipped, and inspired to guide their congregations with excellence. Many testified that the seminars renewed their commitment to lead their ministries with compassion and boldness, ensuring the continued revival and growth of the Church.
Strengthening Leaders for God’s Mission
Through these District-Wide Leadership Seminars, the PMCC (4th Watch) continues to nurture capable, committed, and Spirit-filled leaders. By combining doctrinal grounding with practical equipping, the Church ensures that its leaders are prepared to rise, lead, and actively participate in the great mission entrusted to them by God.
