Worship Service Unites the Caraga District

The Caraga District Fellowship 2026 opened with a vibrant worship service as brethren from different local churches gathered in praise and thanksgiving. Songs of worship filled the convention center as the congregation prepared their hearts to receive the Word of God.

The atmosphere was marked by joy, reverence, and expectancy as believers worshipped together in one spirit and one faith. The gathering reflected the biblical principle that the Church is strengthened when God’s people unite in worship, fellowship, and prayer.

More than a district gathering, the worship service became a powerful reminder that Christian unity provides a strong foundation for effective ministry and spiritual growth.

Rooted in Christ, Built in Apostolic Partnership

The spiritual highlight of the Caraga District Fellowship 2026 was the message delivered by Pastor Gladys Quillao-Rubonal, who expounded on the fellowship’s theme, “Rooted in Christ, Built in Apostolic Partnership.”

Drawing from Colossians 2:7, Pastor Gladys emphasized that believers must remain firmly rooted in Jesus Christ through faithful study of God’s Word, a consistent prayer life, and obedience to biblical teachings.

Her message encouraged the congregation to pursue spiritual maturity by making Christ the firm foundation of every aspect of their lives. As believers deepen their relationship with God, they become better equipped to stand firm amid life’s challenges and faithfully fulfill the mission entrusted to the Church.

Pastor Gladys also highlighted the importance of Apostolic partnership, reminding the brethren that the work of God advances more effectively when believers labor together in unity, humility, and love.

Apostolic Partnership Strengthens the Church’s Mission

Throughout the fellowship, participants were reminded that every believer has an important role in supporting the ministries of the Church through faithful service, cooperation, and evangelism.

Apostolic partnership extends beyond fellowship gatherings. It is demonstrated through active participation in local church ministries, support for evangelistic efforts, and cooperation in fulfilling the Great Commission.

By remaining united under Apostolic leadership, believers can strengthen one another, encourage spiritual growth, and help extend the reach of the Gospel throughout their communities.

The fellowship challenged every attendee to remain faithful to their calling while contributing their time, talents, and resources to the advancement of God’s kingdom.

Commitment to Apostolic Leadership and Evangelism

The Caraga District Fellowship 2026 also reaffirmed the district’s commitment to the Apostolic vision of the Pentecostal Missionary Church of Christ (4th Watch) under the leadership of Apostle Jonathan S. Ferriol, General Overseer.

Believers were encouraged to remain steadfast in Apostolic doctrine, uphold the biblical teachings they have received, and continue supporting the Church’s mission of proclaiming the Gospel and making disciples.

The gathering reminded the brethren that unity, cooperation, and faithful obedience are essential to accomplishing the work God has entrusted to His Church, especially in these last days.

Christian Fellowship Strengthens Unity

Beyond biblical teaching, the fellowship provided meaningful opportunities for ministers, church workers, officers, and members from different local churches to strengthen their relationships through Christian fellowship.

Brethren shared testimonies of God’s goodness, encouraged one another in the faith, and celebrated His faithfulness in their individual lives and ministries.

These moments of fellowship reinforced the strong sense of unity within the Caraga District and inspired participants to remain actively involved in the ministries of the Church.

The successful gathering reflected the dedicated efforts of district leaders, ministers, volunteers, church workers, and the wholehearted cooperation of brethren from participating local churches.
