In a joint effort, Adventist organizations from the Atlantic Union, the North Philippines (NPUC), and the Central Luzon (CLC) launched the Manila for Christ 2025 evangelistic campaign with a highly impactful medical-dental mission. Held on January 19, 2025, at the Pook Amorsolo Covered Court in Quezon City, the initiative offered free medical and dental services to the local community, benefiting 196 patients and embodying the spirit of Christ's compassion in action.
The services rendered included medical consultations for 86 individuals, dental procedures for 58 patients, pediatric care for 27 children, and laboratory services for 25 attendees. These vital health services were made possible through the dedication of local dentists, physicians, nurses, and volunteers from nearby Adventist churches. Guest doctors from the Atlantic Union Conference also lent their expertise, exemplifying the spirit of service that marks the global Adventist mission.
This medical mission forms an integral part of a week-long evangelistic effort that began on January 17, 2025. The series of events aims to meet both the physical and spiritual needs of the community, reflecting Christ’s ministry of holistic care. The culmination of the week-long campaign will take place at the Caloocan Sports Complex on January 25, 2025, with a grand fellowship gathering.
“We are committed to bringing hope and healing to communities, not only through the gospel message but also by addressing the pressing needs of the people,” said a representative of the Atlantic Union Conference.
The initiative was warmly received by residents, who expressed their gratitude for the compassionate care provided. As the week progresses, organizers remain steadfast in their mission to uplift and transform lives, leaving a lasting impact on the city of Manila.
