As EFC La Union celebrates its 22nd Thanksgiving and Anniversary, the moment is not just a commemoration of years gone by but a resounding declaration of God’s unwavering faithfulness and abundant grace. Anchored in the inspiring words of Psalm 100:4, “Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name,” this milestone reflects a journey defined by divine guidance, unyielding trust, and a spirit of gratitude.
From the church’s humble beginnings, where faith carried the vision, to its current flourishing state, God’s presence has been undeniable. Through trials that tested endurance and victories that brought joy, the ministry has continually risen, upheld by His grace. It has grown into a beacon of hope and transformation, planting churches, serving communities, and uniting people from all walks of life into a loving and service-oriented family.
The stories of transformation within EFC La Union inspire awe and wonder. Countless lives have been touched by the church’s mission—broken hearts mended, burdens lifted, and spirits renewed. Testimonies of miraculous healings, answered prayers, and breakthroughs remind everyone that God’s power is alive and active, working wonders in His perfect timing. Each testimony is a reminder that no matter the circumstance, His grace is always sufficient.
Equally inspiring is the dedication of the church’s leaders, pastors, and worship team. Their tireless commitment, often marked by unseen sacrifices, has nurtured a thriving spiritual community. Their devotion has sown seeds in the hearts of many, raising a new generation of believers who serve with passion and purpose. Children who once sat in Sunday School now stand on the frontlines of worship and ministry, showcasing God’s ability to raise leaders who honor Him.
This 22-year milestone is not just a celebration of the past but a declaration of hope for the future. It is a reminder that every challenge faced and every victory won has been orchestrated by a faithful God who sees and sustains. The legacy of EFC La Union is a testimony that when God calls His people to serve, He equips, provides, and multiplies beyond human comprehension.
As the church steps into the years ahead, it does so with hearts full of gratitude and unwavering faith. It remains steadfast in its mission to be a light in the world, confident that He who began this extraordinary work will continue to lead it toward even greater things.
To God be all the glory, honor, and praise for 22 years of grace, faithfulness, and transformation. May this legacy inspire others to trust in His promises and walk boldly in His light!
