How Jesus the Gospel Church Started

A Humble Beginning

Our church started through a Bible Study group in Paranaque, Philippines with five people in a small garage. We eventually grew and ministered right in the streets. Every time our Pastor preaches, the workers have to move the pulpit whenever a vehicle comes and put it back in place after it passed. For about three years we held services that way - in the streets, without a stage.

One time during a service, a dark cloud was hanging overhead, the congregation was challenged by the speaker that if it rains, they will stay put and the congregation enthusiastically chorused - YES! But when the downpour finally began, everybody ran for dry shelter! Eventually, though the mercy of the Lord, He brought the church into a marketplace for two years.

With the Great God

Because the Church have always been obedient with the Lord, He eventually moved the church gathering to a college campus for about two years; then moved to a theater. This was soon filled to capacity as if the best film was being shown there. In fact, the Best Performer has always been with the church. We soon moved to a bigger theater with a seating capacity of 800 and as usual, the place was filled with people being blessed of God throughout the service. To date, God's ministry entrusted to our leadership has grown nationwide with over 70 pastors and covering 100 churches both nationally and abroad.
