The Men and Women of JCIL Pondol Balamban joyfully celebrated the Year-End Christmas Fellowship last Sunday night, December 21. It was an evening filled with laughter, joy, love, and heartfelt fellowship as we reflected on our theme, “Abide”, from John 15:5:
“I am the vine; you are the branches.”

Mapasalamaton kaayo kami sa Ginoo alang sa malampusong Thanksgiving Celebration 2025 nga gipahigayon niadtong Sabado, December 13, 2025, sa Cabitoonan Covered Court.

Tinuod nga among nasinati ang Bulahang Kasigurohan diha kang Cristo, sa pagsimba, pagpaminaw sa Pulong sa Dios, ug sa panaghiusa sa mga kaigsuonan.

Salamat sa tanan nga mitambong, mitabang, ug nagpadayon sa pag-ampo. Hinaot nga ang tanang butang nga nahimo niadtong adlawa magpadayon nga maghatag ug himaya sa Dios lamang.

Soli Deo Gloria! 🙌

Yesterday, as seen in the photo, one of our JCIL Pondol members extended a helping hand by distributing relief goods — including bottled water, noodles, bread, and milk drinks — to families affected by Typhoon Tino.

We thank God for His unending provision and for using His people to be a blessing to others, especially to those greatly impacted by the storm. May the Lord continue to bless the work of our hands so we can keep supporting one another in times of need.

Truly, God is our Jehovah Jireh — our Provider!

Today is not a day to fret or worry, but a time to praise and rejoice in our King. Even in the midst of trials and uncertainties, we hold fast to this truth, God is sovereign and remains in full control over all things. 🙌

As we continue to face challenging days, may we be reminded that our present sufferings are nothing compared to the glory that awaits us in Christ.

Here’s a sermon clip from Pastor Naz Macopia entitled
“The Assurance of the Christian’s Future Glory”
📖 Text: Romans 8:18–30

May this message encourage us to trust in God’s divine plan and steadfast love. Though we may be worshiping from our homes today, let our hearts be united in faith and gratitude, knowing that our future in Christ is secure and glorious.

To God be all the glory! ✝️

Project: Blankets & Mats

Through the initiative of Sis. Shaira Mae Pitogo, together with Pure Heart Generation Youths, Kyla, Ralph, and Lindsay, 𝐉𝐂𝐈𝐋 𝐏𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐥 𝐁𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐚𝐧 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 (𝟖) 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐟𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐡 whose homes were greatly affected by Typhoon Tino.

Yesterday, the team personally distributed blankets and mats, simple yet meaningful gifts that brought warmth, comfort, and hope to families who lost almost everything in the flood. Truly, even in times of great loss, God’s love finds its way through the hearts and hands of His people.

Today, as we share these moments, we are reminded that even in the midst of trials, God remains faithful. He sees every tear and hears every cry, El Roi, the God who sees. Truly, His compassion flows through the hearts and hands of His people.

Our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who gave and supported this cause. May the Lord continue to use you as instruments of His love, kindness, and provision.
