Iglesia Ni Cristo

Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC) is a Christian organization founded in the Philippines and formally registered on July 27, 1914, under Brother Felix Y. Manalo. Iglesia Ni Cristo's teachings are based solely on the Bible, emphasizing worship of the one true God, faith in Jesus Christ, and obedience to His commandments. The first congregation of Iglesia Ni Cristo formed in Punta, Sta. Ana, Manila, and expanded rapidly across the Philippines. By Manalo's passing in 1963, Iglesia Ni Cristo had established districts in more than half the country's provinces. His successor, Brother Eraño G. Manalo, led Iglesia Ni Cristo's global expansion, starting with congregations in Honolulu and San Francisco in 1968.
