Building a House of Worship

Since 1986, Dumaguete Gospel Church has been winning souls in Dumaguete. Our mission vision is seeking after the lost. After years of renting where we spread the gospel and worship the Lord, we have committed to building a house of worship on a lot which was heaven-sent. We pray that this coming June 2009, on the occasion of our church anniversary, we would be able to hold our first worship there, by God’s grace. But we need all the help we can get in putting up the remaining columns and the roof.

The scripture says, “unless the Lord builds the house, they shall labor in vain.” We would like to invite you on that hopeful and joyous occasion to celebrate with us on June 28, 2009 at 9:00 o’clock in the morning. Lunch will be served.

On this note, we would gladly appreciate cash or material donations to finish the building. The person to contact is our church treasurer, Mrs. Daisy B. Onte, with these contact numbers: 422-2351 (land line), 09262786072 (cellphone).




May the riches of heaven be upon you and in Christ,

The Dumaguete Gospel Church Family
