PMCC

U.S. District Prayer Fellowship - May 1, 2021

God is worthy to be praised! Last Sunday afternoon, the PMCC (4th Watch) Los Angeles held the soft opening of the extension of Palmdale/Lancaster. The successful event was hosted by the Bueno family who graciously opened their home for the work of God to be started. In this first step of opening the extension, the desire of opening a daughter church has become a reality. Pastor Even and Pastor Madeline, along with the brethren, are excited to see the work of God flourish all the more. We cannot help but thank the Lord for His goodness. Glory to God!

This past weekend PMCC (4th Watch) of Los Angeles tuned in for the Districtwide Spiritual Empowerment. It was a jam packed 3 days of messages and testimonies that encouraged and bolstered the brethren into leveling up spiritually. The Words of God blessed the congregation, leaving a strong impression by challenging others in doing their part and more. This past week also officially marked the first week places of worship were freely allowed to hold indoor services. Local chur...ches everywhere celebrated and were encouraged by opening their doors and hosted the online stream of the Spiritual Empowerment. Not only did we hear the moving messages, but we heard songs of praises and saw dances from all over the United States district. Working together hand in hand, PMCC Los Angeles was able to present a God glorifying video song of praise entitled, Because He Lives (Amen)/ Overcome. Though COVID may have hindered us greatly in 2020, 2021 finds that nothing can stop God from unifying His church by any means. This event proved that the people of God desire to devote themselves even in the most difficult of times. We are empowered to always find a way for God will always make a way. To God be all the Glory!

The resounding victory of Home Free 7 is still evident up until this day as the gospel continues to reach and touch the hearts of many people. By God’s abundant grace, another name was added in the book of life. We welcome you into the family of God, Sister Ivy Hoy!

On October 11, the district churches joined together in kicking off the much awaited program of Home Free 5 (HF5), which is scheduled to go live on October 30. The local church of Los Angeles was even more encouraged by the leaders, Pastors Even and Madeline Macatol, to participate by once again sending out invitations to many people so that they may tune in to this exciting, groundbreaking online crusade. Promos from Apostle Arsenio T. Ferriol, Bishop Jonathan Ferriol, and the social media challenges shown to the church incited an urge to participate in promoting the crusade among the brethren. With the hopes of reaching more people and saving more souls, the church cannot help but anticipate in the waiting victory of Home Free 5.

These past few weeks the PMCC (4th Watch) of Los Angeles’ flocks have hosted its seeker services. The West LA flock, the East LA flock, followed by the Valley flock each showcased talents and abilities all to glorify God. Ending the whole day for the Lord was the words of God ministered by Ptr Even Macatol. These flock nights helped strengthen the bond of the members of LA church. Smiles and laughter were present as joy filled the brethren’s hearts even in the middle of hardships brought by the pandemic. These programs were made successful all thanks to Pastors Even and Madeline Macatol, and the elders and flock leaders of the church, for their effective leadership guided by the Goodman of the House Apostle Arsenio Ferriol and Bishop Jonathan Ferriol.

Anniversaries are made to be celebrated in a grand affair and although the worldly situation has made it difficult to do so, the PMCC 4th Watch of Los Angeles makes way to mark the occasion. With the leaders of the church, Pastors Even and Madeline Macatol, together with the elders and members, the event celebrated God's faithfulness and blessings for the past 9 years. The all-day celebration ran into the night as songs of worship were sung and messages were given by the pas...tors. The brethren joyously participated in this intimate, but grand event. We praise the Lord for another year of blessings and look forward to the year ahead. To God be the Glory.

It’s Grandparents Day! Celebrated the first Sunday after labor day, we made this day extra special for our godly grandparents. They deserve to be celebrated for the extra dose of love they give us. To all our godly and loving grandparents we honor and thank you!

We have "Never Forgotten" the tragic event that took so many lives 19 years ago. September 11 remains one of the greatest tragedies against this nation, the United States of America. That is why we continue to pray for the nation in this service of remembrance. The night filled with testimonies of that day of where we were and how it affected us. Message of giving was given by Pastor Madeline Macatol, song of praise offered by Sis. Rachielle Pronuevo, and a strong message was given by Pastor Even Macatol. All this was done before the church knelt down and brought prayers up to the Lord to strengthen the nation, a nation needing God.

It was a Sunday Funday to be had. Brethren of Los Angeles beat the heat with food, fun games, and fellowship along with the words of God imparted by the local pastor, Pastor Even Macatol. With Blue versus Yellow, cheering and spurring each other on while showing good sportsmanship, yellow team reigned victorious in this Labor Day celebration. Fun can be had even in the hottest of days surrounded by the family of God. Praise the Lord.

Say Y.E.S! To God’s empowerment. Last August 11-13, we launched the 3 day summer spiritual strengthening program of the PMCC (4th Watch) of Los Angeles called Youth Empowerment Summer (Y.E.S.). This aims to give our young generation of Christian believers a boost in their spiritual health. The program is conducted by local church pastors, Pastor Even and Pastor Madeline Macatol. Encouraging our youths to stand strong in the midst of hardships and remain faithful amidst tri...als. To God be the Glory!

Praise God for another victorius outcome of Home Free 4. Whether near or far, many tuned in to the global crusade. We witnessed music and testimonies, along with the inspiring God-given message of Bishop Jonathan Ferriol. PMCC Los Angeles brethren, together with Pastors Evenicer and Madeline Macatol and the elders, persistantly rallied invitations for people to join. In return, the invitations were well received resulting in many accepting Christ and even in baptisms. We tha...nk the program and vision of Home Free, which enables us that wherever we are, whatever the situation the world may be in; the gospel can be spread digitally around the globe. With that in mind, it had resulted to baptism of hundreds of souls. One member of the Los Angeles locale alone have had 10 of her contacts baptized. This is all the work of God. We are anticipating more of the equipping power of God as we strive to evangelize all throughout the world. Maranatha!
