"IGLAP!" Tsapter Payb

TRAPTER PAYB
“At ang mundo ay libong ulit na tumabalelong…”

At ang mga dahon ay mabilis na napigtal sa tangkay ng panahon at ang mundo ay mabilis na uminog at libong ulit na tumatambalelong.
Sa paglipas ng panahon ang palda ng babae ay umigsi ng umigsi, humabang muli at nang muling umigsi ay umabot na hangang sa hindi dapat abutin. Ang beywang ng pantalon ng mga lalake ay naging high waist pagkatapos ay nakakaintrigang low waist kasabay ng paglapad at pagkipot ng laylayan. Pero sino naman ang mag-aakala na pagbabalik ng low waist ang gagawa naman nito ay ang mga kababaihan kasabay ng pag-igsi ng blusa nila upang ibandera naman ang pusod at ang tiyan.
(Abangan ang karugtong ng kabanatang ito…)

IGLESIA EVANGELICA UNIDA DE CRISTO

VISION STATEMENT
A serving and caring church faithfully proclaiming Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour and commissioning every believer to make disciples of all nations.

MISSION STATEMENT
Glorify God by equipping the church in reaching and serving people with the Love of Jesus Christ by the Power of the Holy Spirit.

UNIDA CHURCH has a distinctive name and a place in the history of the Philippines. It followed the prophetic observation in 1903 by Rev. John Bancropt Devins “that Filipino Protestants will be self-supporting”: (Wikipedia Encyclopedia) “In 1932, six of the smaller indigenous denominations formed the Iglesia Evangelica Unida de Cristo.”

UNIDA dared to declare economic independence by turning down American dollars to become self-supporting. It was hard going for them because their pastors did not receive anything from the church and the members built churches on their own without aid from the Americans. But with so much faith in God’s provisions they did. Unida is now 77 years old and going strong.

Jose Rizal dreamed of an economically independent Philippines but that remained a dream. For the country, that is. But for 77 years Unida was free from foreign intervention because they were economically independent.

The IGLESIA EVANGELICA UNIDA DE CRISTO or UNIDA CHURCH, the truly Filipino Protestant Church, was born on January 3, 1932 but the seeds that gave birth to it were sown at the turn of the century. It was preceded by the birth pangs of an independent Filipino Nation and emboldened by the coming to the Philippines of Protestantism and consequently the right to read and own a BIBLE.
