Solid Rock Bible Congregation Grows, Expands Building

The Solid Rock Bible Congregation (SRBC) based in Samat, Bugallon, Pangasinan, Philippine Islands has steadily grown since its adoption of the G12 Vision.

Before the entry of the G12 vision into the church, the average Sunday Service attendance could not even muster a consistent 70 in its 29 years of existence. There were Sundays that we could only number 40 warm bodies in the church.

But since Pastor Charlie Loranza, SRBC head pastor, instituted the G12 Vision in September 2006, the Sunday Service attendance started to rise and since February 2007, we have recorded an average of more than 100 every Sunday.

Seeing that the G12 Vision is working wonders in the church, the SRBC leadership decided to expand the floor area of the worship hall. Pastor Charlie challenges everyone to give to the planned expansion and a number of brethren put in a total of PhP55,000. Of course, that amount is not enough so the other brethren are being encouraged to give to a growing and working ministry.

We are targeting a goal of 120 regular attendees in June, the month of the church’s anniversary, especially now that we have around 40 members who have gone through the Encounter God Retreat (EGR), the fruit-triggering phase of the G12 Vision.

Here are some pictures of the ongoing expansion of the church.
