Banna Church of Christ Disciples

Happy birthday, Rev. Vangie H. Paguirigan!

May your special day be filled with love, joy, and countless blessings. Thank you for your steadfast stewardship and commitment to our spiritual growth. Wishing you a year ahead filled with God's abundant grace and favor. Have a blessed and joyous birthday!

On this sacred Good Friday, we pause to reflect on the profound significance of Christ's journey to the cross. In the solemnity of the day, we are drawn to meditate on the seven last words spoken by Jesus, each utterance echoing with divine purpose and profound meaning. Through these words, we find solace, redemption, and the ultimate expression of love—a love so profound that it transcends time and space, reaching into the depths of our souls.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our seven speakers for their moving exhortations on the seven last words of Christ. Their wisdom and insight have illuminated the path of our spiritual journey, guiding us closer to the heart of the Easter message. May their words continue to resonate within us, inspiring us to embrace the true essence of faith, hope, and love as we walk alongside Christ on this solemn journey of redemption.
