This Sunday, Church of the Messiah is very pleased to welcome four bishops from the International Communion of the Charismatic Episcopal Church. On Sunday, March 12th, Archbishop Craig Bates, the Patriarch of the ICCEC, will visit Church of the Messiah and welcome three international leaders to Jacksonville. Bishop Elmer Belmonte is the Bishop of the Diocese of Europe. Many will be familiar with Bp. Belmonte from his daily live streams during the pandemic and beyond. Bishop Ariel Santos is the Bishop of the Diocese of Metro Manilla & Northern Luzon and Bishop Paulino Villavicencio is the Bishop of Diocese of Southern Luzon. Both Bishops Santos and Villavicencio are mighty leaders in our church in the Philippines.
These leaders in our international church will be visiting Church of the Messiah prior to the House of Bishops the following week and we are truly blessed to be able to receive men of God who labor for the Kingdom across the globe. Be sure to make plans to attend on Sunday, March 12th, to experience what these incredible pastors and leaders have to share.
