THE Pentecostal Missionary Church of Christ (PMCC-4th Watch) kicked off another evangelical crusade called "Home Free – Rebirth In Christ Tour" at the Quirino Memorial Grandstand in Manila on Sunday, Jan. 19, 2025.
A crowd of over 100,000 faithful from across various regions marked a moment in a global crusade that has already touched the lives of more than nine million people since its inception during the Covid-19 pandemic.
PMCC-4th Watch leader, Apostle Jonathan Ferriol, not only inspired the congregation with a powerful message of hope amid economic and political uncertainties but also offered steadfast support for the country's embattled president, urging him to "look up and stay the course" despite mounting pressure.
Before the event, Ferriol also held a press conference where he appealed to the members of the church worldwide to continue supporting the ongoing mission.
He described the tour as a "rebirth in Christ," meant to uplift the spirits of those suffering from the ongoing aftermath of the pandemic, economic instability, and political strife.

"We are here not only to preach the Gospel but to show the world that no matter the economic challenges, no matter the uncertainties, our true home is in Christ," Ferriol declared.
What started as an online initiative to spread hope during lockdowns, the global outreach has grown exponentially in the past few years and has
evolved into an expansive, worldwide movement, reaching millions of people from various walks of life.
Its members are encouraged to stay resilient and steadfast, even as the world grapples with economic uncertainty and political divides.
For many, the crusade served as a reminder that even in the most trying times, faith can offer refuge, and the promise of a better, more united future is within reach – a future that is rooted in the love of Christ and the collective strength of His followers.
