Valentino Sitoy, Jr. United Church of Christ in the Philippines FOREWORD To capture in print a history of a people in their faith journey is itself a miracle! Indeed, it is the work of the Holy Spirit manifesting itself in the ingenuity and intellect of church scholars, such as this particular author. To be able to delve into the peculiarities of each of the uniting churches - each with its own particular historical journey - and weave them into one fabric of a United Church of Christ in the Philippines is indeed a work of genius. Leaping out of the pages are familiar names of persons, places and events as the stories of each of the denominational springs flow into the one stream of a church body, losing themselves into the one body. And as the names are read again and again, by individuals and groups of this volume, they will come to life and bring back memories of the many pioneers of the United Church of Christ in the Philippines, without whom we will not be what we are today, nor hope to be what we ought to be, in the future.
