“KAISA!”
The Power That Moves UNIDA Church
The Meaning of Kaisa
THERE are words that you cannot translate to English lest you mess it up. “Kaisa” is one such word. You can try to search for a synonym, a homonym or even an antonym, but it will be futile. There is no English word that fits. But there is a Spanish word that does. UNIDA.
Unida is Kaisa
Our “Kaisa” must emanate from your heart and from your very soul in order to enable you to understand its true worth and meaning. It is spiritual. Iglesia Evangelica Unida de Cristo. An Evangelical Church united in Christ. In a word, KAISA!
The Power of ONE
It defines how ONE can acquire the power of a MULTITUDE! The Kaisa Spirit comes from the prayer of Jesus and this is where its power comes from.
John 17: 11b “Holy Father, protect them by the Power of Your Name – the Name you gave me – so that they may be ONE as we are ONE.”
20 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be ONE, Father, just as You are in me and I am in you.”
What difference can ONE make?
Last May 21, 2005, at Cuneta Astrodome, the UNIDA CHURCH unfolded one big moment when it launched NC2W or NATIONAL CALL TO WORSHIP. 6,000 people came and praised and worshipped GOD. All the serving and caring Ones of Unida were there. If you were not, “Sayang!” You’ve lost an AMAZING MOMENT.
The Unida shout of Kaisa is a response to the prayer of Jesus and a commitment to obey his command - To be ONE with Him, the Father, and with each other. Yes, with all those that believed the message: “There is only One Lord, there is only One God, there is only One Name given by which man shall be saved – JESUS!”
THE POWER THAT MOVES
NOTHING moves without something or somebody powering it. The scientific theory of Kinetic Energy says that a ball will remain immobile on the table until a force pushes it to move. And it will remain moving until a force stops it.
For the last 73 years, where does the power of the UNIDA Church come from? It came from without and from within. The moving spirit that binded Unida together from the original 25 churches to the 85 churches and 50 mission points today is the Prayer of Jesus coined into one word, KAISA!
Forged in Hardship & Sacrifice
NOTHING of great value comes without hardship and sacrifice.
In NCR alone, with an estimated population of almost 10M last 2000, the church to population ratio is 4,279 people for a single church. The 2,391 churches, with an average attendance of 126 members, in NCR is less than 10% Evangelical or Full Gospel. More than 70% barangays in NCR has no church. One of the cities which badly need a church is Pasay City (church to population ratio: 8,066).
We do not have a church in Pasay City. And oddly enough, we also do not have a single church in Makati City. But prophetically enough, our Metro Manila Tri-Districts surrounds the two central cities in an average radius of 6 kilometers with Baclaran and Tipas as the closest. Is God telling something to the you? What is the Metro Manila Tri-Districts plan to do about it?
The Metro Manila Tri-District are composed of Gagalangin, Kalookan, Marulas, Matang-Tubig, Roasario T. de Leon, Novaliches, Palatiw, San Juan, Taytay, Tipas, Bagong-Ilog, Bumbong, Baclaran, San Dionisio, and Almanza.
Is God telling us to start an Urban Mission in these two cities? Is God telling us that Urban means Urban-rich?
VISION STATEMENT
A serving and caring church faithfully proclaiming Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and commissioning every believer to make disciples of all nations.
Isang naglilingkod at nagmamalasakit na iglesia na matapat na nagpapahayag na si Jesu-Cristo ang Panginoon at Tagapagligtas at nagsusugo sa bawat mananampalataya na gawing alagad ang lahat ng mga bansa.
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.
Luwalhatiin ang Diyos sa pamamagitan ng pagbibigay sa Iglesia ng kakayahang abutin at paglingkuran ang lahat ng tao sa pag-ibig ni Cristo sa kapangyarihan ng Espiritu Santo.
