Church History
1
2021
January 2021: Led by Jerry & Janet Ofanda, Grace City Castillejos was founded amidst the global pandemic. God opened the opportunity to begin a church in the town of Castillejos. We started praying in front of the Castillejos municipal hall, joined by brothers Jhun Palang and Cris Pascasio. For an entire month, we gathered every Tuesday for prayer, unsure of where or how to begin. After each prayer session, we would explore various barangays, looking for a place that could be used for God’s work. Before January ended, God led us to an apartment near the Castillejos municipal hall. In His grace, He provided this location and blessed us financially to cover the downpayment for the rent.2
2021
February 7, 2021: The first Sunday service of Grace City Castillejos was held at Barangay San Roque, Castillejos, Zambales. The church began with the prayer for its own property, asking God for a small 50-square-meter lot to build a permanent space for worship. Miraculously, God provided a 1,226-square-meter lot, where the church could establish itself and grow. This was also the year where God gave a vision to plant five new churches across Zambales in Castillejos, Olongapo, Subic, Silbang, and Paluig.3
2022
February 2022: A year after its founding, Grace City Castillejos celebrated its 2nd anniversary on the church's own lot in Barangay Nagbunga, Castillejos, Zambales. This milestone reinforced the church's trust in God's provision and faithfulness. During this time, God gave us the prophetic word: “Multiplication”.4
2023
July 2023: God commissioned Jhun Palang and his family to start a house church in Subic, Zambales.5
2023
December 2023, Subic church was officially declared a local church, marking yet another testament to God's faithfulness and the church's mission of multiplication.6
Present Day
Continued Vision for Church Expansion: Grace City Castillejos remains committed to its vision, praying for three additional churches to be planted in Zambales. The church rejoices in God’s faithfulness and eagerly anticipates more doors opening for new congregations.To God be all the glory and honor!
