Voices singing praises to God filled the Smart Araneta Coliseum on Monday (October 12) as members of Church of God International (MCGI) celebrated the 35th anniversary of Ang Dating Daan - the longest running religious program on radio and television.
The event was highlighted by the presence of Persons with Disabilities (PWD), on which the whole gathering was dedicated to, giving them the best seats in the house for them to enjoy the offering of songs of thanksgiving to God.
The ADD program has long been supporting different PWD groups through its outreach projects such as Free Medical Mission, Free Legal Counseling, and Social Care, among others.
In the said ocasion, 10 groups of PWD were gifted P100K each and 30 individuals were also granted 10K each. All of them including their aides left with a bag of grocery items.
The epic congregational singing has also set a Guiness World Record for the Largest Gospel Choir with an Assembly of 8,688 members of the church chorale groups in Metro Manila and Mega Manila or nearby provincial chapters on a one-hour of singing songs of praise.
For this, Guinness representative, Ms. Fortuna Burke Melhem, has flown in from London, United Kingdom as its official adjudicator, with Iloilo 5th district Representative Niel Tupas Jr., serving as the official witness of the event.
Alongside the largest choir ensemble ever assembled in a single venue, chorales from the different satellite centers in the whole Philippines and in other countries in South and Central Americas, and in Africa joined the historical event.
