Ninety-three believers, including a 12-year old boy, were baptized in the biggest  baptism service organized so far by the church planting ministry of the Center for Community Transformation Group of Ministries. The believers  include students from the Training and Development Institute in Magdalena, Laguna, former street dwellers being ministered to by the Kaibigan Ministry, and micro-finance recipients who are now members of community churches in Antipolo City, Quezon City, Taguig City, and the provinces of Laguna and Cavite.
