The Iglesia Ni Cristo Story: History, Beliefs, and Global Mission
Iglesia Ni Cristo traces its roots to its formal registration in the Philippines on July 27, 1914, growing from a single congregation in Manila to reach Luzon, the Visayas, and Mindanao, then expanding overseas with its first congregations established in 1968. Its teachings are drawn solely from the Bible, centered on worship of the one true God and faith in Jesus Christ, with a unified, orderly form of worship practiced consistently across every congregation. Today, the Church has a presence in 168 countries and territories, extending its mission through the Felix Y. Manalo Foundation’s community outreach and humanitarian work worldwide.
