Excitement on Bro. Eli's Upcoming 50th Birthday Celebration Heightens

There’s a different kind of excitement going on around the members because of a very important event in the Church’s history.  It is just barely two weeks before Bro. Eliseo Soriano, the Presiding Minister to Members Church of God International (MCGI) will celebrate his 50th spiritual birthday in the Church.

The International Evangelist will celebrate his 50th anniversary of baptism in the MCGI on April 7, 2014. Members of the Church are showing anticipation that even weeks before Bro. Eli’s birthday, greetings from different parts of the globe pour in for the preacher.

Bro. Eli was baptized in the Church just after he turned 17 yrs old. Since then, he has become an active member of the Church at that time led by Bro. Nicolas Perez. Not long after, Bro Soriano became a worker of the Church, consequently becoming the Presiding Minister.

The birthday of Bro. Eli also coincides with MCGI’s 1st quarter Thanksgiving of the Body. This is a quarterly thanksgiving service by MCGI where all members congregate to offer songs of praises to thank God.
The facebook fanpage of Bro. Eli Soriano was filled with greetings and well wishes from supporters of the preacher.
On the official Facebook fanpage of Bro. Eli, greetings
 for the preacher continuously come.

Even on the Facebook fanpage of the preacher, well wishes and greetings for Bro. Eli pour in for his jubilee celebration.

Former Talentadong Pinoy grand finalist Wan Lu greeted Bro. Eli “Happy Sabbath day Bro Eli :)

Another post in the vernacular says “Thanks to God for our preachers. You are always in our prayer. May God guide you and happy birthday Bro. Eli,” say Jane Perez Santos.

Jeck Delos Reyes says “Thanks to God for giving us someone like you. We love you in the true meaning of the word. Happy 50th Sabbath day!”

Joselyn Villamin says “We love you Bro. Eli. We thank the Lord for giving us a preacher and a friend in you. May He continue to give you wisdom and strength to guide us.”

Bro. Eli will also celebrate his 67th birthday in the flesh on April 4, 2014, just three days ahead of his baptism day.
