There is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents. — Luke 15:10

Last May 31, 2026, Heaven rejoiced as Nicola, daughter of Alvin & Ruchele Gumiran, made the heartfelt decision to be baptized and follow Christ.

It was such a beautiful and meaningful moment not only for her family, but for the whole ICOC Isabela family as well. Witnessing someone choose God and begin a new life in Christ will always be something worth celebrating. Truly, our hearts are overflowing with joy and gratitude for what God has done in Nicola’s life.

May your new life with God be filled with faith, strength, joy, and purpose. The best journey has just begun!

Congratulations on your baptism, Nicola! Heaven rejoices, and so do we!

James 4:8
“Come near to God and He will come near to you.”

At Roxas, Isabela, Envolve x Spark spent the Holy Week Retreat simply coming back to what matters most—drawing near to God.

It was a mix of everything: laughter during team building games, quiet and honest moments during the bonfire as prayers were written and lifted up, and that peaceful early morning time at the top of the mountain where everyone just slowed down and reflected. We shared in worship during Sunday service and even expressed our hearts through painting.

More than the activities, it was the feeling of being present—with God and with each other. A time to let go, to be refreshed, and to be reminded that no matter where we are, we can always draw near.

𝟗-𝟐𝟕-𝟐𝟓 | With hearts overflowing with joy, the 𝐈𝐂𝐎𝐂 𝐈𝐬𝐚𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐚 – 𝐃𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐮𝐧 𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐲 carried out a wonderful outreach program under the theme “𝐀𝐝𝐨𝐩𝐭 𝐀 𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐤”, aiming to bless the community through food, fun, and faith-based teaching.

The program was designed to nurture the children and empower the parents, providing not only meals and enjoyable activities but also valuable lessons rooted in God’s Word. Through games, interactive sessions, and moments of prayer, the disciples were able to connect with families, inspire hope, and bring joy and encouragement to everyone present.

This outreach reminded all of us that true service goes beyond material giving. It is about investing our time, love, and care into the lives of others, walking alongside them, and showing God’s heart in action.

We are deeply thankful to our sponsors and to all who took part in serving and supporting this activity. Your generosity played a vital role in making this outreach meaningful. To God be the glory!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!🫶
