2011 CFGP Convention Ends Successfully

One of the services during the 2011 Convention of The Foursquare Church in the Philippines, Cebu City


We thank the Lord for pouring out His Mighty Spirit and Presence to us during the 4 - day gathering at the Grand Convention Center in Cebu City last April 12 - 15, 2011. Each day was marked with countless blessings from God's Word through Dr. and Mrs. Glenn Burris, President - International Church of the Foursquare Gospel, USA and Dr. Barry Buzza, President - Church of the Foursquare Gospel, Canada. Our very own pastors - Dr. Felipe Ferrez, Dr. Val Chaves, Rev. Delfin Corona, Pastora Marilou Consing, Rev. Dan Feleo together with Bishop Edgar Bantigue of Christ Faith Fellowship, and Ptr. Sat Gadingan likewise ministered God's word to us in such a powerful yet sweet way. It was a glorious celebration of God's faithfulness and goodness. Around 1,700 delegates feasted on God's Word and rich fellowship. During the convention, the Mizpah Quartet ministered through songs that made us reminisce the sublimity of old-time favorites. Then we witnessed the awarding of ministers who serve for 25 and 50 years respectively as well as the ordaining of 46 faithful pastors as ministers of the Foursquare Gospel. The convention was highlighted with the conferment of Divinitatis Doctor ( Doctor of Divinity ) to Rev. Bishop Val Chaves, our president last April 14, 2011 by LIFE Pacific of Canada. What an honor to have this given to him. We give God all the glory! The convention was ended with a communion and there was great celebration of praise and worship for the great things God has done. We were all blessed, encouraged, strengthened and empowered as a family. The Psalmist's declaration "Behold how good and how pleasant it is when brethren dwell together in unity" rings true, loud and clear in our lives. Praise and worship filled the hall as our worship leaders led us into the throne room of God. Our special thanks to Ptr. Ed Reyes, Jeng Maghirang and Miriam Mahusay for their superb ministry together with our great musicians. you really did a powerful worship with the family. Together, we will be one in finishing the task. We will plant churches in the highways of every key city and town in the transnational and transnavigational highways from Aparri to Mindanao. Let us believe God for resources and pastors who really have the heart to plant a church and transform communities. Together, we can do it. This is our vision, and by God's grace, we can accomplish this for this is His will. It was announced by our president that our 44th National Convention will be held in Mindanao on April, 2013. That will surely give us enough time to pray and save for this great gathering again. Again, thank you for all your support and prayers. Truly, God is a prayer-hearing and prayer-answering 
God! We thank You Father for the works You did in our lives!!!
