Lucia's Story | ||||||||||||||
I was born in a religion preaching
that the church that Jesus Christ established turned away from God and reemerged in the Philippines in 1914 -- The Iglesia Ni Cristo founded by Felix Y. Manalo. I was a very active officer of this religion and I had been persecuting Catholics from those in my neighborhood, in the schools I attended, in the companies I worked and even in the internet when I started going online (around 1996). I used to flood chat channels with anti-Catholic articles. During the Great Jubilee Year 2000, I began to see the truth about Catholics and the Catholic Church. I saw how this doctor-turned-nun served the poor by peforming surgeries for free. I heard about the Archbishop of Manila, regularly visiting the poor who live under bridges and dumpsites. I also saw a video about Our Lady of Fatima. "Open your hearts to the Lord and begin to see the mystery" says the Jubilee Song. On January 2001, I joined People Power 2 and attended my first Catholic Mass in a thanksgiving officiated by His Eminence Jaime Cardinal Sin, Archbishop of Manila. On March 31, 2001, I declared my departure from the religion where I was born. On June 6, 2001, after reflecting on the readings on the Feast of the Descent of The Holy Spirit, I started believing that the church Jesus Christ established prevailed and that Jesus promised to be with us until the end of time. On September 2001, I completed all the neccesary sacraments for my conversion. Today, I am defending the church from those that persecute it. If you have questions about the religion "Iglesia Ni Cristo," I will gladly answer them. You can also find me in the following Iglesia Ni Cristo discussion groups: |
