Guiding Light Christian Ministries began operations on July 2, 1996, only two days after leaving the previous church. Our first service was a Tuesday prayer night in a medium-sized function hall at Prime Hotel where about 300 plus people attended. The number far exceeded our expectations and was a shadow of things to come. Our very first Sunday service held on July 7 at the Baguio Colleges Foundation gymnasium saw the mighty move of God's hand once more --- more than 700 came in attendance to show support for the newborn work. God had set His seal of approval upon the new church.

    In the last six (6) years, our formal membership has grown to more than 500, with an average attendance every Sunday of about 1,600-1,800 people. The Lord has also blessed the work in our Church with the establishment of sixteen (16) ministries. Currently, there are nearly two hundred (200) workers in the church. This number will include those who are serving in Dagupan, Pangasinan and Philex Mines at Itogon, Benguet. God had indeed shown Himself gracious and faithful once again. Never has the church felt more established and with a definite sense of direction than it has now. The secret: a focused emphasis on the strong preaching of the Word, a serious fervency for the ministry of prayer and intercession, an intense prioritizing of evangelism, and a renewed understanding of the pastoral ministry.
