MINISTRIES

Publication

"Looking back, I remember a time when the publications ministry only composed of a few people. Looking now, it's amazing to see how God has added to this ministry, not only in terms of what we are able to do but also in the people He uses.

I praise and thank God for giving every one of us the privilege to be part of this wonderful ministry. Through this ministry, we are able to witness God's faithfulness time and time again through answered prayers, finance and attendance reports. It is also through this ministry that we are able to help other ministries. I thank God for giving us wisdom, strength, and grace to finish our projects, especially during late nights.

I also thank Him for a church family that is always willing to help whenever it is needed. Personally, this ministry has a special place in my heart because I've been part of this ministry since I was fourteen. I look forward to God using not only me, but all the wonderful people in this ministry, for many more years to come. I cannot wait to see what God has in store for us!" - Sis. Trixie Velasco

Orchestra

“First of all, I praise and thank God for the opportunity He has given me, to be a help in the music ministry of our church, specifically in the instrumentals.

It all started in the year 2015, with the burning desire God has given me that moment when the church was in need of a pianist. Although I didnt know much about hymn playing and reading music notes, I've decided to pray for it and talk to our Pastor about that desire. Making the long story short, God gave me the opportunity to be the church pianist together with my fellow youth named Jade who also loves playing piano. Since then, God has enabled us to learn and improve the skills and talents that He has given us. Soon enough, our Pastor discovered that there are people who where also good at playing instruments other than piano and decided to encourage those people who wants to glorify God through theirskills and talents in music. Never did I expect and think that it would come to this point- from two pianist who allowed God to use them to many people willingly surrendering their given talents to the Lord.

Trials and challenges were faced through this ministry yet God has proven Himself true and faithful to us,to me. Looking forward for this ministry to grow and be a blessing, all glory to the Lord!” - Sis.Chelzy Joy Respicio

MBBCA

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” (Proverbs 22:6 KJV)

This is one of the verses in the Word of God that lovingly commands us to teach our precious children so that they will grow up in the knowledge of God and become productive and useful in the work of the Lord as well as in the community they belong.

The Metropolitan Bible Baptist Christian Academy is committed towards the goal of providing good Christian education to our students. As part of the teaching staff of this private institution,it is my mandate to realize this goal in the lives of our students.It is such a great joy to me seeing them learn academically and grow spiritually.

The school is now in its sixth year of operation and within these six years truly God has been so gracious and so faithful. Many have graduated already and they are doing great in their chosen career. The school management is delighted by the fact that our children have gone this far in their Christian lives. I am always grateful to God for His sustaining grace day by day providing us the strength we need and equipping us in this awesome ministry with such awesome responsibility. May the Lord continue to bless our school as well as our students and school staff.” - Sis. Glory Fe A. Abotanatin

Sunday School

“First of all, I want to praise and thank God for the salvation that I have. When MBBC first started and Pastor Gamy created a Sunday School ministry, he asked for volunteer teachers. I praise God for touching my heart to volunteer, along with another Christian lady. The question that we had was "Where are the students?" And without hesitation, Pastor said, "That's what you need to fix." And through prayer, many families came and became members of our church. From then, the number of kids grew and today, they cannot be counted with our fingers. I want to praise God that after seventeen years, the kids from our Sunday School ministry grew and matured in the faith, and are on their way to becoming pillars of our church.

I want to praise and thank God for giving us a pastor with unconditional love for His flock. To all the teachers of the Sunday school ministry, always remember that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. God bless us all and may we continue to be used in His vineyard." - Sis.Nenita Velasco, Sunday School Superintendent

Multimedia

Galatians 6:9 KJV "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not."

"Having been a member of this church from the very beginning, I have been blessed with being able to watch as God has blessed this church over the years . I have witnessed first hand God’s mercy and grace as He has made our church to grow in membership, size, and capacity to reach others. With this growth the needs of the church have grown in parallel, namely in our multimedia department, and in that too, God has provided. It has been such a great privilege to see how God has provided hardware, space, and talent for the multimedia to grow in ability and sophistication to ensure that the delivery of God’s word is facilitated and unhindered. God has also provided a means for the multimedia department to share the preaching of God’s word via online streaming to those that cannot physically come and even to those in far away countries. The whole department and myself are honoured to be in a position of service and we are excited to see how God will bless us next!"

Lay Preachers

"I praise and thank our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ for the great privilege of putting me in the Ministry of the Word. I am grateful also to our Pastor Gamy Romano for the opportunity that he has given me to preach God's Word as one of the Lay Preachers, for his leadership and guidance.

Preaching God's word has encouraged me a lot in having a right walk with God, right perspective on His will and way and right relationship with Jesus. The Preaching ministry have been a great blessing to me personally because it keeps me spiritually stirred and challenged. The Ministry of the Word taught me a lot in handling the word of God carefully, preaching the word with God's leading and living what we preach with integrity.

As part of the ministry, it's not just being a blessing to the members but also being blessed because it really helps me to grow spiritually. It's all about giving God the glory and being humbled, acknowledging it is only by God's grace and enabling that we can be used by God mightily. I always pray that God will continue to enable us Lay Preachers as we Stay the course in preaching from the KJV Bible and God's message. Looking forward for what God has instore for the ministry and as we grow keeping the faith and giving God all glory."

Pastoral Care

"I really praise God for the opportunity to be part of the Pastoral Care Ministry. A new ministry in our church created to give support, care and helping hand to our beloved Pastor Gamy Romano.

The life of a Pastor is not just about preaching the word but they are also called to take care of the flock of God and minister to the people.

We in the PCM aim and commit to be used as Channel of Blessings to our Pastor through some of his daily activities and errands that we can do in his behalf. It is a privilege that we are thankful to God that He enabled the members to take care of our Pastor as he continue to Love and minister to us. It could be as simple as reminding him of things that needs to be done or making powerpoints for his lessons, anything that can really help our Pastor and spare some time as he focuses on more important things in the ministry. We are joyful and blessed to be part of this exciting ministry as it helps each of us to learn firsthand from our Pastor and develop leadership qualities.

Every member of the ministry are thankful to our Pastor for the privilege of taking care of him and obeying God's command in Hebrews 13:17. We are always encouraged by Pastor that there is much work to do for the kingdom and glory of God and we look forward for what God instore for the ministry as we continue to support and pray for our Pastor as he minister to us and finish the race set before us. Praying for the growth of the ministry and God's grace enabling us to be part of PCM. All glory to God putting us in the Ministry."
