Iloilo, Philippines: Panay District elected Rev. Danny Sison as their new District Superintendent during their district assembly on 25 January 2025. Rev. Sison accepted this new role with deep faith and a servant heart. His path of faith was a gradual opening of God’s call, influencing his commitment to ministry and love for the church.

He underscores the value of introspection and celebrating big and small victories to stay inspired and committed to the task at hand. He feels that being in touch with God and the people will give him the strength and wisdom to handle his role. As he enters this new chapter of his life, Rev. Sison encourages the pastors and church members in his district. He reminds them that though difficulties may come, they are not alone. Together in Christ and with faith strengthened, he encourages them to seize growth opportunities, hold fast to prayer, and encourage each other in ministry. He calls on the church to stay firm in proclaiming the Gospel and sharing God’s grace and love with everyone.
Pray for Rev. Danny as he leads the Panay district. Pray that God will empower him to lead in faith and unity and give him a new vision and unshakeable dedication to bring spiritual renewal and growth to the churches in Panay.
