REPORT
By: Bishop Gani Visey
The 2nd Quarterly Evangelism of the 2:7 Club was recently conducted in May 22, 200. It was held at Hillside Christian Church, Rizal, Laguna. Sharing the Good News and Thanksgiving Party are the main purpose of the said occasion. However, Awarding Ceremony of the recently concluded TODA Basketball League were also held. This event was attended by twenty-three (23) tricycle drivers from the community.
The event was very successful because of the support and prayers of the HCC Pastor, Rev. Joseph C. Mauk and wife Ruth Mauk as well as the members of HCC.
One of the exciting parts of the program that break the timidity of the guests were the games administered by the Bible Clubbers wherein all the participants did enjoy. While the games are being conducted, Vice-Mayor and MTFRB Chairman Hon. Tony A. Aurelio arrived and he too enjoyed the night. Bro. Boyet Isleta gave his song number then it was followed by Bro. Ramil Alimagno and Bro. Freddie Alcantara who shared their personal testimonies. While dinner was being served, Special Music was rendered by Bro. Bert Mondugar. Also, Bro. Peps Laroza gave his personal testimony then immediately after Ms. Alice Lareza rendered her two special songs.
The Gospel was effectively and clearly presented by Bro. Andam Asegurado through the use of Sketchboard. During the presentation, it was observed that all the guests were attentively listening to the message. After the presentation, the guests were divided into the number of HCC counselors for counseling of which only three (3) reported undecided, and sixteen (16) have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as their Personal Savior. The counselors gladly reported about the positive response of the people.
When the awarding ceremony was conducted, TODA Chairman Macky Corcega expressed his thanks to the Hillsiders for the support and cooperation they have shown during the tournament. On the other hand, Vice-Mayor and MTFRB Chairman Tony Aurelio commended the sportsmanship that every player had demonstrated during the tournament. He also expressed his thankfulness to the Hillside Christian Church for accommodating them especially in the holding of the awarding ceremony. He also promised the players of his 100% support in the next basketball tournament. Before the awards were conferred to the winning teams, Bro. Gani, the host of the program, stressed that the trophies that they would be receiving were only temporary things. Unlike the Eternal Gift that everyone had received. He also asked the guests to raise their hands to show that they have already responded to Jesus and accepted His invitation to accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior. Surprisingly, all the guests raised their hands.
When asked on what they can say, Herdie Lorico and Gilbert Pumar commented : “ we felt relieved just like a newly-born child”
This particular ministry would not be possible without the divine guidance of the Lord Jesus and warm support of the following: The Music Team, Ladies, Bible Clubbers, and other leaders of HCC. Overflowing joy have been seen in their faces as they gladly served the Lord. To God be the Glory!
