ASTIG Concert

There were also performances by the senior praise and worship team, Pastor Ulysses, Ate Arla , Kuya George and an interpretative dance number from Ate Love and her friends.

The guest speaker for the concert was Pastor Jonel Rubio who shared a powerful message on Christian living for the youth.

ECBC Visits Doulos

ECBC Sunday School teachers visited the floating bookstore M/V Doulos on December 8, 2007. The teachers, mostly from the children’s department, were given a tour by the crew of the ship. After the tour they then went to the bookstore to look for Sunday school materials. The publicity for the ship’s docking at Manila Bay was, unfortunately, overshadowed by the Hotel Peninsula take over led by Senator Trillanes.
