UpdateWhile the church is looking for a lot, preferably in Bgy. Trapiche, the church still meets, through the leadership of Ptr. Florencio Ragsac, in the house of Bro. Bayani and his wife, Sis. Marina Soriano. Currently, the average attendance for Sunday service is five, and some of them are non-members. Ptr. Ragsac regularly visits families who are willing to study God’s Word in their homes but they are unwilling to go for Sunday service. One probable reason is the "feeling of inferiority" since the meeting place is not impressive to gather in. It is because the family, who permits the church gatherings in their house, is not prominent and the people are afraid to be identified with the church.(Read More) Ptr. Florencio C. Ragsac. MissionaryFlorencio Carino Ragsac, Jr., the CBC missionary pastor to Tanauan City, Batangas, is the only son of Florencio Ragsac, Sr. and the former Cresencia Carino. They had five children, and their son, Bebot, who was born on October 1, 1973, was their fourth child. The Ragsac family lived in Villasis, Pangasinan, where Bebot’s parents were known to be kind and generous neighbors. Bebot’s parents were not only good; they were also God fearing people. They were committed to their religion and they raised up their children to be such also. Fortunately, the Ragsacs had a relative who belonged to the Southern Baptist Church. During Bebot’s pre-school years, this relative brought a lady Bible teacher in their neighborhood. Young Bebot sometimes joined the other children and listened to the Bible stories of that lady church worker.(Read More) |
