As of 2005, the local NSO recorded 1.2M people leaving in 47 Municipalities and 1,109 barangays.

 Metro Bohol Christian Church, planted last May 8, 2008 with only 9 disciples from Metro Cebu Christian Church.  Give up their dream life in the Queen City of the South and commit 100% to be in the City of Friendship, to be an instrument of hope and the fulfillment of God's dream of making Disciples in all Nations.

Right now, 15 disciples are fulfilling this dream of God (apprx. 0.02% of Tagbilaran City population).

DO YOU THINK WE'RE THROUGH???

CHRISTMAS - Just Around The Corner

Christmas is just around the corner. We could hear Christmas songs and see people start planning for their gifts. 

For Metro Bohol Christian Church, Christmas is also a time of the year that really makes disciples excited. Especially this year that our celebration will highlight a contest that would test and showcase the creativity and talents of everyone.

 Today, I would like to officially announce the activities and contests that we'll have in our Christmas Banquet!

1)  Christmas Tree Making Contest - It's an individual contest where each are allowed to submit a Christmas tree especially made out of gratefulness and love.  The Christmas Tree must not be taller than 3feet in height. We will have the following scoring system: 30% from Blog Votes, another 30% from facebook likes and the rest of 40% will come from votes of MBCC disciples during the banquet. Voting will starts on Nov 1, 2011.

2) Christmas Talents' Night - We will divide the church into 3 groups that will represent 3 different talents. One group will do a Christmas Dance.  Another will sing Christmas Song.  There will also be a group that would have a Christmas poem interpretation. Songs and poems will be provided Nov 1, 2011.

3) By Ministry Christmas Carolling - two group will share their skills in choral group singing.  Singles Ministry and Campus Ministry will have the chance to pick their own Christmas song(s) and interpret it with the group. The presentation would have a minimum of 2 minutes but should not exceed in 4 minutes.

4) MANITA / MANITO - we will be encouraged and we'll also encourage others through sharing what's special to us, in a gift giving....  We will assigned code names to all church members and also some criteria weekly of our gifts to give and gifts to be received.  First gift giving will happened on Nov 2.

WHEN GOD WORKS... 2011 THEME


Nothing could really stop the warriors of God... "WHEN GOD WORKS" nothing is impossible!  Welcome to 2011 heart of the Metro Bohol Christian Church.

Alvin Comendador of Bohol Island State University, a fourth year Mechanical Engineering Student, boldly take the challenge and let Jesus be the Lord and Savior of his life. Another miracle that happened this awesome year.

How refreshing to have God in my life...

Alvin, now that you have the forgiveness of your sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit.
 


IN THREE YEARS...


The road was really narrow. It never been attractive and less people would love to take it. But when you start to persevere and put your heart in it and allow God to take control, you will appreciate that at least you persevered.

Our three years were full of ups and downs, yet the church really grown a lot.  God also revealed another miracles when He let the church be known to 3 campus warriors.  Vivian Belmonte, Ruby Digal and Rowena Digal were baptized into Christ and they confess to make Him the Lord and Savior of their lives.

Vivian confesses that Jesus is her Lord and Savior...

Ruby your sins are now forgiven...

Rowena receives the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
