Happy 25th Church Anniversary, Nagoya Locale!
Last Sunday, we joyfully celebrated the 25th Church Anniversary and Thanksgiving Service of PMCC (4th Watch) Nagoya Locale, followed by a memorable Gala Night. With grateful hearts, we honored God for His marvelous deeds and unwavering faithfulness throughout the past twenty-five years.
Our theme, “Honoring God’s Marvelous Deeds, Advancing the Apostolic Mission” — Psalm 145:5, reminded us of the greatness of our God and renewed our commitment to continue the sacred work He has entrusted to His Church.
Truly, the works of God are marvelous. From humble beginnings to twenty-five victorious years of ministry, every testimony, transformed life, and spiritual milestone reveals the goodness and faithfulness of the Lord.
Under the dedicated leadership of our beloved Head Pastor and Sub-District Coordinator, Presbyter Nimfa Barrera, together with Pastor Filart Barrera, and through the wholehearted cooperation, support and sacrifices of the entire Nagoya brethren, this meaningful celebration was made possible. Every prayer, helping hand, and act of service beautifully reflected the unity, love and dedication of God’s people.
We also express our heartfelt gratitude to our esteemed Guest Speaker, Presbyter Maya Cruz, for faithfully sharing the powerful Word of God. Her message strengthened our faith, encouraged our hearts and inspired us to remain steadfast in advancing the Apostolic Mission.
During our Gala Night, we joyfully honored the pioneers, faithful brethren, and dedicated workers who have become part of Nagoya Locale’s remarkable journey. Their years of loyalty, commitment and service have helped establish and strengthen the work of God in this place. Their lives stand as beautiful testimonies of faithfulness and perseverance.
We are deeply grateful to our pastors, ministers, guests, visitors, awardees, committees and every brother and sister who shared their time, talents, prayers and resources. Your presence and participation made this celebration even more meaningful and unforgettable.
Above all, we lift our hearts in deepest gratitude and praise to our Almighty God, whose unfailing grace, faithfulness and mighty hand have sustained Nagoya Locale throughout these twenty-five remarkable years.
With profound gratitude, we honor our beloved Apostle Jonathan S. Ferriol, whom God has entrusted to lead His Church in this generation. Through his faithful, courageous, and dynamic leadership, the Apostolic Church continues to be challenged to remain steadfast in sound doctrine, pursue excellence in the work of God and faithfully fulfill the Great Commission.
As we look back upon twenty-five years, we do not merely celebrate an anniversary—we celebrate God’s faithfulness and the enduring legacy of the Apostolic Mission. We remember the pioneers who labored in faith, the ministers and workers who served with sacrifice, the brethren who remained faithful through every season, and every soul whose life became part of the beautiful testimony of Nagoya Locale.
Yet our celebration is not a conclusion. It is a continuation.
The God who carried us through the first twenty-five years is the same God who will lead us into the years ahead. By His grace, we will continue to stand firm, grow deeper in the Apostolic faith, reach more souls, raise another generation of faithful servants, and advance the Gospel wherever the Lord sends us.
May the legacy entrusted to us become a greater mandate for the generation to come. May our lives, our families, and our ministry remain fully consecrated to the purpose of God.
Happy 25th Church Anniversary, Nagoya Locale!
To God alone be all the glory, honor, and praise!
