Pastor Saw Samuel conveyed a message at the Commitment and Service event, which brought together leaders from the union, missions, and conferences on Thursday evening, March 7, 2024, at SWPUC Garden Church.


Southwestern Philippine Union Conference (SwPUC) and Southeastern Philippine Union Mission (SEPUM) Publishing Department collaborated to organize a significant Bi-Union United Prayer Anniversary at the Southwestern Philippine Union Conference Garden Church from February 7-10, 2024. 


Virgie P. Baloyo, Director of Adventist Family Ministries in the Southern Asia Pacific Division, served as the guest speaker at the Bi-Union Adventist Family Ministries Seminar in Cagayan De Oro City, South Philippines, from February 22-24, 2024.


The MIC concluded officially after the Commitment Service, during which students, along with their parents and teachers and camp heads and facilitators, bid farewell to the enlightening experiences they had throughout the entire eventful week.


On the camp's fifth day, Pastor Namanya shared insightful teachings, focusing on the impact of God's influence in our lives. On the final day of camp activities, the excitement didn't wane as students eagerly showcased their newly acquired knowledge and skills.


On the fourth day, Pastor Namanya discussed the topics of living and dying. He pointed out that while education teaches us how to live, including using our talents and becoming better people, it often doesn't cover the important aspect of learning how to face death.


On the third day, Pastor Namanya started with messages discussing the challenges encountered by followers of God in a world where persecution, sickness, and death prevail.
