Continue inspirational work, Marcos tells Iglesia ni Cristo
President Marcos on Saturday urged the members of the Iglesia ni Cristo to be “instruments of change” by continuing their selfless and “inspiring” acts of service to the country.
“In each act of goodness and compassion, I urge you to be instruments of change in our society and let us achieve a new Philippines for everyone’s benefit,” he said.
Mr. Marcos said the members of the INC should continue to be an inspiration not just for their communities, but for the entire Philippines.
“Your selfless service and activities illustrate a picture of unity, progress and a deeper understanding of what it means to be a nation,” the President added.
The President made the call as he congratulated the INC on its 110th founding anniversary.
The INC marked its 110th founding anniversary on Saturday with the theme: “People of God should continue to please Him.”
It was founded in 1914 by Felix Manalo, with Manalo’s grandson, Eduardo Manalo, as its current executive minister.
In his message for the INC’s founding anniversary, Mr. Marcos paid tribute to the INC’s strong faith, which “served as a light to our path and gave us strength to work hard and aspire for a better life.”
He urged INC members to strengthen their faith and love in God and their fellow man even further, and to pray and work for a “future that is full of hope, bounty and peace for Filipinos and mankind.”
“The INC’s 110th anniversary is a historic celebration that shows your love for God, your strength and your dedication as members of the INC,” the President added. INQ
