Large Number of Filipinos Join Orthodox Church : Mass Baptism Held
With Great Joy and Gladness, we would like to announce the reception of 200 former Aglipayan (Philippine Independent Catholic Church) faithfuls to the bossom of the Orthodox Church. This 200 newly baptized Filipino Orthodox Christians comes from the following places:
April 24, 2015-We baptized 43 catechumens after more than a year of catechism in the former “San Isidro Labrador Parish” of the Philippine Independent Catholic Church. This now becomes as the “St. Isidore Wonderworker Orthodox Church”.
These parishes are received first than other Aglipayan parishes due to some reasons. Thousands of catechumens and dozens of Aglipayan parishes are still under instruction and is set to be receive in the following months.
