The Adventist-laymen’s Services and Industries (ASI) and Adventist Professionals (Ad Pro) in the Central Philippine Union Conference (CPUC) commenced a large-scale, simultaneous evangelistic initiative, marking May as their dedicated evangelistic month.
This tremendous outreach spans 262 sites across the various missions and conferences within the CPUC territory, beginning May 18 – 24, 2025.
The CPUC-wide evangelistic crusades, moving under the theme “Sharing Christ in the Marketplace and Workplace,” aim to reach the elites and the working class. This strategic focus reflects ASI’s core mission of empowering Adventist professionals and business owners to integrate their faith with their daily lives and vocations.
These evangelistic meetings are expected to continue throughout May, with participants hopeful for a massive spiritual impact on communities across the Central Philippines.
ASI, an organization dedicated to supporting Adventist members in business and industry, aims to encourage spiritual growth while helping members utilize their God-given talents and livelihoods to advance the church’s ministries. It provides guidance and support to those who dedicate their businesses to aid the church’s work, aiming to equip Adventists to share the love of Jesus in their respective spheres of influence.
On the other hand, the Adventist Professionals (Ad Pro) are vital to this marketplace ministry. While ASI encompasses a broader spectrum of lay involvement from business owners to employees, Ad Pro focuses on Adventists engaging in various professional fields – doctors, lawyers, educators, engineers, IT specialists, and many others.
They aim to integrate their faith into their professional practice and workplace interactions by demonstrating Christian values, integrity, and service excellence in their daily work and professional relationships.
They employ their specialized knowledge and abilities to support church initiatives, community outreach, and evangelistic programs. They contribute, not just financially, but also with their time, professional insights, and networks to facilitate outreach efforts.
In this collaboration between ASI and Ad Pro, they form a powerful synergy, leveraging the collective influence and talents of Adventist laypersons to impact both the elite and working classes across the Central Philippines with the gospel message.
Pastor Berdandino Maniego, the communication director and the ASi/Ad Pro coordinator for the CPUC, calls for a united prayer and fasting for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit and the success of this initiative.
He also encourages everyone to pray for good weather throughout the week and protection for all who attend the nightly meetings.
|”On top of these, let’s also pray for an abundant harvest of precious souls on May 24, 2025.”
