In 2005, in the City of Kitchener, the Lord opened the door of heaven
to JIL people to fulfill the vision and mission that they received from Him for His glory alone. With fire and faith in their
hearts, three Filipina members of the Jesus Is Lord Church (JIL) started having a bible study and declaring that Jesus is
Lord over Kitchener.
Through God’s grace and mercy, the three became more, and soon the place of fellowship was a problem. But once again,
God touched the heart of JIL family. A mission house was stablished at 401 Cedarwoods Tower.
In April 2006, JIl Kitchener started
having a fellowship at the mission house. Ptr. Adelfa Tangonan was appointed to be our Lay Pastor to shepherd us. God
promised that as we lift Him up, He will draw more people to His Kingdom. And God's promised was proven. Through the love
and compassion that God put in our hearts, the fire keeps on burning to follow God’s will and purpose and to continue
to declare that Jesus is Lord over the world.
In November 2007, the Bible Study became a Sunday service. JIL Kitchener started
an afternoon service at Highpoint. Within a few months the numbers became larger and the room cannot accommodate the attendees
anymore. God’s faithfulness to JIL Kitchener was proven once again for He gave them a larger and beautiful place at
Howard Johnson Hotel.
In June 2007, JIL Kitchener started having a Sunday morning service. God continually draws more souls in to the ministry
as His faithfull servants continually serve Him and obey Him with all their hearts.
In November 18, 2007, we celebrated our first year
anniversary and thanksgiving. Celebrating God’s faithfulness to our lives and to the Ministry he entrusted, that He
is God that answers our prayers and that He is God yesterday, today and forever. Rev. Nicanor Gonzales delivered a message
that encouraged, deepen and strengthened our faith to Him with text in Isaiah 54:2.
Today, there are already four cell
groups with committed members, and having that faith to fulfill God’s purpose, while we are here on earth. To finish
the race that He has set before us. That He who began a good work shall come to completion until the day of Jesus Christ.
To continue to share the word of God to the needy that truly He is the way the truth and the life.
To God be the glory!
