Choosing you out [selecting you for Myself] and delivering you from among this people and the Gentiles to whom I am sending you—to open their eyes that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may thus receive forgiveness and release from their sins and a place and portion among those who are consecrated and purified by faith in Me. –Acts 26.17-18 The Amplified Bible
Rev. Gerald Holloway will be sharing with us his rich experiences in Christian ministry—in particular and the joy of finding yourself at the centre of God’s will, being able to serve Him fully and witnessing His moving in your life and in the lives of those around you.
The event is a celebration of the call to minister and lead; thanking the ministers, pastors and leaders and also a way of encouraging them to keep heart and commit themselves to growing further in the Lord as they continue in their respective callings.
This is an invite-only event.

More about Word for the World International
This Spirit-filled church started as a Bible study in the garage of Church of God Missionaries Bro. Gerry and Sis. Sue Holloway in Bel Air, Makati in August 1980. What started as a 15 person group grew rapidly. By November of the same year, the meeting place was moved to the Hotel Intercontinental in Ayala Avenue with its attendees grew to 40 individuals.
By the power of God, WWCF grew by leaps and bounds. By 1984, services were simultaneously held at the Hotel Intercontinental and at the Rizal Theater in Makati. After transferring venue to accommodate more people, they finally settled at the ACCM Building in the late 80's. Sunday after sunday, the WWCF Sanctuary was packed with people who relished the powerful worship of God and the anointed delivery of the Word. People came in droves as they came to commit their lives to Christ.
The Makati fellowship gave rise to other WWCF local churches in major cities of the Philippines such as Greenhills, Quezon City, Manila, Cebu and Zamboanga. It expanded its mission field with the planting of churches in Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, Dubai, South Korea, and even the United States and Canada. Recently, breakthroughs were made in Nepal, Myanmar and Sri Lanka.
In 2005, Word for the World Christian Fellowship celebrated 25 years of God's grace and anointing. From humble beginnings to major growth and expansion, Word for the World has remained true to its calling: Proclaiming the Word for God in the major cities of the world.
