***MESSAGE FROM THE SENIOR PASTOR ON THE 24TH FOUNDING ANNIVERSARY OF LJOR CHURCH***
To my beloved co-laborers in Christ—pastors, workers, elders, and members of the Lord Jesus Our Redeemer Church family:
Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus, our Redeemer!
Today, we stand in awe and gratitude as we celebrate 24 years of God’s faithfulness to our church. This milestone is a testament to His abundant grace, unending mercy, and steadfast love for His people. Indeed, He is a boundless God, whose grace knows no limits.
I want to take this opportunity to express my deepest gratitude to all of you—our pastors and workers, who tirelessly shepherd the flock with wisdom and compassion; our elders, whose steadfast faith anchors us in times of both triumph and challenge; and our members, whose unwavering support, sacrifices, and partnership make this ministry flourish. Your dedication to the cause of Christ has been nothing short of extraordinary.
Through the years, we have seen God move mightily in our midst.
He has used our united efforts to touch lives, transform communities, and expand His kingdom in the Philippines and beyond. Each prayer you’ve lifted, every act of service you’ve rendered, and every offering you’ve given have contributed to this beautiful tapestry of God’s work in and through us.
As we look to the future, may we remain united in spirit and purpose, ever dependent on the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Let us continue to labor together for His glory, knowing that our labor in the Lord is never in vain.
May God cause our destiny as a church to be fulfilled and lead us into even greater heights ofservice and impact for His kingdom—to the ends of the earth.
To God be all the glory, honor, and praise!
With a grateful heart,
(Sgd.) PASTOR RANEL A. RIVERA
LJOR President/ Senior Pastor
