UPDATE (July 8, 2009): Palace clarified that July 27 is a working holiday. (source)
————-
President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo just declared July 27 as a non-working holiday, a special holiday called “Iglesia Ni Cristo Day.”
Read more about it here.
This means that I don’t need to file for a leave on that day because I plan to join the Iglesia Ni Cristo Day celebration somewhere here in Manila. If you are an INC, you know where it is. 😉
To all INC bloggers (some revealed themselves here), I think, that’s the best day to have an EB, right? 🙂 Me and my wife will surely be there! Kita kits na lang dun!
hi brother! bakit kaya sa ibang news online, special working day sya? ang gulo. hindi pa naman ako nag-file ng leave kaya natutuwa ako sa balita ng inquirer dot net na non-working holiday sya.
dami palang kapatid sa blogosphere 🙂
aajao
non working holiday nga! yehey, another long weekend!
really?
kelan pa po nagkaron nito?
teka, buti hindi nagseselos ung ibang mga religions???
galing naman ng mga inc….
Pulitika talaga o! Grabe ka GMA…
It’s not actually politics.. the government just learned how to appreciate the good things the INC had done.. not only in the spiritual nor political aspect but in many ways… you just saw it merely political because we usually vote in bloc. the INC has what we call TRUE UNITY.. which you cannot see in other organizations.. Just wait for the big event that will happen on July 27.. 🙂 Advance happy 95th anniversary to all the brethens… GOD BLESS US!
by the way.. we are invinting the non-INC to join us in commemorating our 95th anniversary. We guarantee that your time will not be wasted! Hope to see you together with my fellow brethens… GOD BLESS US ALL!
It is a merely political because we usually vote in bloc. the INC has what we call TRUE UNITY.

IGLESIA NI CRISTO. SEE YOU ALL AT THE RIZAL STADIUM ON JULY 27, 2009
Happy 95 Anniversary, but If I was president of xxx country I’ll make everyday as holiday. ha ha ha.
Anyway even I ‘m not INC member, but just go on
Hi to everyone, I am from Davao. Happy 95th Anniversary. Sad to note that some of the guys who are not a member of INC had issues concerning that July 27…. Bakit daw me ganun? As for my understanding, the government has seen the good things that we have done. Salute to that. One more thing, when the government declares a Holiday during the end of Ramadan, why they did not give any speculations regarding to that matter? We did not even claim or give any speculations regarding their 2-days Holiday? lol
Hello……. Happy 95th anniversary to all INC………… 🙂 mag enjoy sana ang lahat… sa ating celebration, i gawad nawa ang kapayapaan.. 🙂
Hello…… po…. sa lahat!!!!!!!!!!!! happy 95th anniversary po sa inyo!!!! nawa makiisa po tayong lahat sa gagawing pagdiriwang!!!! 🙂 🙂
Kahit working holiday pa iyan, we members around the world will celebrating the 95th Anniversary of the Church of Christ. Happy 95th Anniversary to all bretheren.
I have nothing against INC, I respect other people’s belief and faith, but GMA declaring a NATIONAL NON-WORKING HOLIDAY???! To give appreciation and acknowledgement to such sects with accomplishments and contribution to our country is a noble thing to do, but declaring such national holiday for me IS NOT appropriate… To dw9_hvw, Ramadan is given to the Muslim because one thing they make up almost 5% of our population not comparable to INC(in all due respect) comprises only of almost 2.8%, and Ramadan is celebrated not only here but worldwide, this is also granted to the Muslim in connection with Peace between Christians. To Adrienne Renee Naron and joshrenalds2009, that’s the main point! INC is voting by BLOC that’s why politician aspire to have your UNITY… Same as always, traditional Politician are doing their best gain Political power… That is why, for centuries, Politics and Religion are being apart from each other…
Isang malugod na pagbati sa Iglesia ni Cristo sa pag sapit nito sa ika-95th anibersaryo ng muling pagkakatatag dito sa Pilipinas.
Godbless the Church and all the brethren.
HAPPY 95TH ANNIVERSARY IGLESIA NI CRISTO MABUHAY TAYONG LAHAT SA KAPAYAPAAN… SEE U IN ALL AT PAMPANGA… LOCAL NG CABANATUAN….
to my own says:
do you think because muslims make up 5% of our population,they are the only one deserve to be granted a holiday during their RAMADAN?And FYI this celebration is not only here in the Philippines but also a world wide celebration of all our brethren. this is our 95 founding anniversary since it was started here in the Philippines on 1914.You should be proud your fellow Filipino reached this big success it only means that god is with us and his words shine through our success. By the way you are cordially invited on that celebration we have GEM(GRAND EVANGELICAL MISSION) on that day an that is world wide rain or shine a bible exposition …..then the celebration.My friend in abu dhabi was invited by one of our brethren their so as I invite you.
HAPPY 95TH ANNIVERSARY to all of us INC. Magliwanag tayong lahat

Happy 95th anniversary to all…Im so excited about it…see u all guys at respective assigned venues..
Thats OK whether its a Working or non-working holiday.
About the population issue, INC has yet to reveal the TRUE number. The population count as of today is not vaild, some are saying 5M, some say 2M, some say 1M, 10M, or even 500K. Those numbers are just speculations.
Happy Anniversary sa lahat.
