"The kingdom is near." What great news! And followers of Jesus from around the world will be gathering at Pagdiriwang in the Philippines in November 2015 to celebrate.
The Center for Community Transformation (CCT) has been used by God as a global leader in pushing back the gates of hell and extending the kingdom of heaven to the poorest of the poor. As God leads and strengthens them, the last are becoming first. Perhaps as an even greater sign of the kingdom of heaven being near, many of the first are becoming willing to become last.
CCT has many partnering organizations (endPoverty, Five Talents, HOPE International, PEER Servants, and more) who, in turn, partner and oversee Christian microfinance programs around the world. This global family has seen God do great things while yearning with Him for even greater things in the years ahead.
Pagdiriwang is an event to celebrate what we have seen and experienced, while gathering to be encouraged and equipped to eventually see what we have not yet seen.
Future posts will capture the developments pre- and post-celebration. Get ready to see God do great things in our midst. Get ready to celebrate!
