Calling all FIREBRANDS! How’ve you been lately? Hope you’re ready for the upcoming event!

‼️‼️ USD CONFERENCE 2024 | March 12-15 ‼️‼️

We’ve missed you and our fellowships, so why don’t you POST THIS ON YOUR STORY and TAG THREE FRIENDS that you’re excited to see this Conference!

It was April of 2020 that the East Coast Firebrands first logged in to their Zoom to have a virtual fellowship with one another. Since then a longing to fellowship in person, to gather in the name of Jesus, began to brew. Fast-forward to August 2022, East Coast Camp made a way for that desire to be reality! Finally no more lagging videos or seemingly detached conversations, but meaningful, face to face interactions and communication!

In their first service, a symposium, whether they admit it or not, it was a bit awkward 😅. So by way of a game, they got to know each others’ name and the local church they attend. Then came pouring in the questions for the symposium. By God’s grace, they had Ptr. Larry Nisperos and Ptr. Em Mantillas to answer their inquiries and cure their curiosities. A wide variety of subjects were tackled — Christian service, theological “controversies”, relationships and ministry, just to name a few.

Later that evening was FIREBRAND NIGHT!
Kicking off with an energetic praise and worship, with the staple of the Firebrands jumping at the front and simply pouring to God their worship. Bro. Kirk Cruz lead the Spirit-filled opening prayer and Bro. Charles Co exhorted on True Firebrand Giving for the offertory message. A series of wonderful, talented performances followed from every East Coast church. Mutual support and encouragement for one another hung in the air as each presentation took place. A couch talk also took place as Firebrands such as Bro. Josh Felonia and Bro. Daniel talked about their experiences with AMP and entering the full time ministry respectively. And to cap the night, Ptr. Larry fervently spoke on the Characteristics of A Firebrand using King David as an example for the youths to look up to.

The next days, seminar with Sis. Erlin Robeniol and Bro. Joemar Dela Cruz took place to further deepen their faith and broaden their knowledge of the church and God’s will in their lives.

A spectacular thing took place in form of a MASS BAPTISM! Congratulations to the Firebrands of Michigan, baptized by Bro. Eddie Edward of North Carolina and spectated by their supportive Firebrand peers.

Then came Antioch Vision Night, also known as dedication night. Bishop Jonathan spoke powerfully, even through watching him on the screen, the Spirit of God moved and stirred in everyone’s heart, especially our Firebrands. There may have been some hesitation and tentativeness for some, but for the most part Firebrands rushed to the stage to claim their place once again in the altar of dedication. Tears were shed and loud cries were made as they rekindled their dedication. As that happened, pastors sealed their dedication with prayers as they laid their hands on the heads.

All in all, we can sum up Camp 2022 in the East Coast as VICTORIOUS! It was victorious indeed. Battling through two years of detachment, worldly influences, anxieties and troubles, this was God’s win for the Firebrands! 🔥

United in one spirit, Firebrands from Coast to Coast have gathered virtually. They were inspired with songs of praises, blessed by living testimonies, and most of all, empowered by the words of God. This Firebrand Fellowship, Bro. Virgill D**o has reminded us to speak about our faith through evangelism, by sharing the words of God.

Every time we hear God’s words, we feel much closer to Him. We give thanks to God for establishing a church that is ready to serve. Indeed, we were empowered and strengthened by the words of God.

To God be all the glory!

“But you, be sober in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.” As firebrands, let’s reignite our passion in doing God’s mission. We are not afraid to embody what it is to be a 4th watcher—spreading the gospel by leaps and bounds and taking part in mass evangelism! With school being just around the corner, this is the perfect opportunity to start our Timothy circles!

On behalf of Bishop Jonathan Ferriol and the entire United States District, we would like to congratulate Sis. Faith Nina Marcelo and Sis.

In Christ’s Church, we are never too far from the heart and mind of Christ - thanks be to God for His sending of His Apostle in the End-Time! This US District Spiritual Empowerment has reminded us that we ought to realign our hearts back to the right place.

Earlier this evening, the youth gathered and remained in the spirit of unity as we fellowshipped virtually, with songs, games, testimonies, and the words of God. And with this Firebrand Fellowship, we were reminded from the message of Sis. Mica Agag about the need to be right in the middle of the work of God - which is His Harvest!

Send us, Lord! We want to be a part of Your work!

One of the signs of Christ's Second Coming is the occurrence of wars and rumors of wars among nations. Today, our hearts are saddened by the ongoing feud between two European countries. As Christians, it is our responsibility to entrust them to God through our prayer that may He touch their hearts and clear their minds. Let us pray that may God intervene to stop this emerging war. Let us pray for everyone's peace and safety.

Without resilient visionaries, the church would not stand as it is today. The PMCC (4th Watch) of the United States District recognizes the man whose calling enabled churches to be planted from sea to shining sea. From Bishop Jonathan, Presbyter Marites, and the leaders and brethren of the U.S District, we greet our Goodman of the House, Apostle Arsenio T. Ferriol, a Happy and blessed Birthday! We continue to pray that God will endow you with more strength and Grace in proclaiming the gospel until the Lord Jesus Christ’s Second Coming!
