The Baptists in the Philippines will soon have a national day with the Senate approval of a proposed measure that seeks to declare the second Thursday of every January a special working holiday to be known as “National Baptist Day.”
“The Baptists have distinguished themselves for their involvement in our communities by building schools and hospitals and by giving much-needed aid to communities struck by calamities,” Gatchalian said during his sponsorship of the measure. The first Baptist church in the Philippines, the Jaro Evangelical Church, was founded in 1900 in Iloilo City. The city is also home to the Central Philippine University, a Baptist university founded in 1905.
