“To love the Philippines is to love what pleases God, not just what benefits us.”

Ptr. Jojo Baldo opened our new series Paninindigan ng Kristiyanong Pinoy with the message Pagkataong Marangal, preaching from Matthew 5:1–12. He reminded us that a heart shaped by Christ—poor in spirit, hungering and thirsting for righteousness, merciful, and a peacemaker—is the kind of character that becomes salt and light in our nation.
