Adult Month 2026 Opens with Worship and Kingdom Builders Expo
IMUS CITY, Cavite — Nearly 4,000 adult members from Metro Manila and nearby districts gathered at the AATF Sports Complex in Malagasang, Imus City, Cavite, on July 4, 2026, for the Adult Month 2026 Opening Service, officially launching this year’s celebration under the theme “Fortifying Apostolic Unity,” based on Philippians 1:27.
The gathering, also known as the Apostolic Adult Fellowship 2026, extended beyond the physical venue as brethren from international districts and local churches participated through a simultaneous livestream. This allowed adult members from different parts of the world to join the worship service and receive the same spiritual exhortation despite geographical distance.
The month-long Adult Month 2026 celebration aims to strengthen Apostolic households, deepen Christian stewardship, and inspire adult members to remain steadfast in faith while actively supporting the mission of the Church.
Kingdom Builders Expo Highlights Adult Month 2026 Opening
The opening activities began with the Kingdom Builders Business Expo 2026, where entrepreneurs from the PMCC (4th Watch) community showcased businesses that reflect Christian values while contributing to the work of the Lord.
The expo demonstrated how responsible entrepreneurship and faithful stewardship can become avenues for ministry and service within the Church. It also provided adult members with opportunities to connect, encourage one another, and recognize the importance of using their God-given abilities and resources for God’s Kingdom.
Delegates also participated in the Kingdom Builders Couch Talk, led by Elder Johna Ting, President of the International Church Adult Department (ICAD). The session encouraged adult members to practice faithful stewardship in their families, professions, and ministries while embracing leadership grounded in biblical principles.
This was followed by the Kingdom Builders Workshop, where participants collaborated on practical action plans designed to strengthen their respective local churches. The workshop emphasized teamwork, ministry development, and sustainable programs that promote unity and active participation among adult members.
Worship Service Calls Believers to Stand Firm in One Spirit
The afternoon worship service centered on the biblical call for believers to preserve Apostolic unity and remain steadfast in the faith amid the challenges facing the Church.
In his exhortation, Bishop Reynald Sulayao reminded the congregation that Apostolic unity is essential to building a strong, growing, and mission-driven Church. He encouraged the brethren to continue working together in faith and remain faithful to the teachings entrusted through Apostolic leadership.
An open forum followed, giving attendees an opportunity to raise biblical questions and receive scriptural guidance on practical matters concerning Christian living.
The highlight of the gathering was the preaching of God’s Word by Apostle Jonathan S. Ferriol, who expounded on Philippians 1:27 and emphasized the importance of standing firm in one spirit while striving together for the faith of the Gospel.
His message underscored that genuine Apostolic unity goes beyond organizational harmony. It calls believers to share one faith, one purpose, and one commitment to the mission entrusted to the Church. Members were encouraged to remain steadfast in biblical doctrine, persevere through trials, and continue advancing God’s Kingdom with unwavering dedication.
Drawing from Matthew 16:24–25, Apostle Jonathan also reminded the congregation that faithful discipleship requires self-denial, carrying one’s cross, and following Christ wholeheartedly. Although the Christian journey involves sacrifice, he emphasized that such sacrifices are privileges that strengthen believers and prepare them to fulfill God’s divine purpose together as one Apostolic family.
Adult Month 2026 Strengthens Apostolic Fellowship
As Adult Month 2026 continues throughout July, adult members are encouraged to participate in various spiritual, educational, and ministry-centered activities designed to reinforce biblical values, promote active service, and deepen their commitment to God’s work.
The opening gathering demonstrated the strength of Apostolic fellowship as nearly 4,000 members participated onsite while others joined virtually from different parts of the world. Their united participation reflected the spirit of this year’s theme, “Fortifying Apostolic Unity.”
The Adult Month 2026 Opening Service served as a powerful reminder that the Church is strengthened when believers stand together in faith, remain grounded in Apostolic doctrine, and faithfully fulfill the mission entrusted to them.
As adult members continue the celebration throughout the month, they are called to labor together in love, remain steadfast in the faith, and faithfully proclaim the Gospel until the Lord’s return.
