Maranding Church Building Renovation
The renovation of the Maranding Church building was the comple - tion of a project that began several years ago. In June 2022, members of the Ma - randing congregation contacted CGA headquarters. Eventually a visit was arranged to Maranding, Mindanao. During this visit, congregational needs were evaluated. Several im - portant improvements were iden - tified, including construction of a second-floor dormitory-style facili - ty, installation of a water system and bathrooms, electrical upgrades, air ventilation, and furnishing rooms with beds and bedding. The breth - ren were grateful for these plans and the support being offered. In August 2022, a team from the United States returned to begin the renovation work. With the help of 13 American volunteers and sever - al Filipino laborers, the project was completed in approximately one week. The recent renovation work rep - resents the final phase including some necessary repairs and touch- ups of those original improvements that began in 2022. Through God’s blessing and the generosity of many brethren, the Maranding Church Building now provides improved facilities for services, fellowship activities, and housing for visiting members and guests. Everyone is deeply thankful for the support and dedication of those who helped make this project a reality.
