Bless Our Cops Movement and MASCOM Celebrates 2nd Annual Regional Conference.

Bless Our Cops and MASCOM delegates from all over the Davao provinces and the rest of Mindanao, were warmly greeted by graceful swaying of palm trees, the sweet smell of durians and mangosteens  and the fresh scent of the Nabintad river as they celebrated the 2nd annual regional conference at the Davao del Norte Provincial Office last June 29, 2012.

The conference which was organized by MASCOM officials in order to encourage old members to continue to minister to the PNP as well as to persuade other pastors and church leaders to bless the cops.

 

Lead by Ptr Carlito Dadula, Ptr. Edwin Santos, Ptr. Noel Milloren and Bert Diao (who are not only dedicated police ministers but are also renowned broadcasters themselves), almost 100 ministers from different denominations and church affiliations came and communed with each other.

Representing churches that have been a blessing to the police in the provinces of Davao del Norte, Davao del Sur, Davao Oriental, Compostela Valley and Davao City, the delegates reported the grace and blessing that the police of the province had received through the churches.

They also reported the blessing that they have received as police ministers.

During the onslaught of Typhoon Pedro which devastated and flattened the Davao provinces some BOC volunteers especially those in Davao Oriental and Compostela Valley were also among those who suffered. Through the grace of God and through the support of some Christian friends from the JOSHUA (Jesus Offers Salvation and Hope for the Armed Forces) ministry affected BOC volunteers in the region was give food, shelter and some financial assistance to help them through the deluge.

The BOC team composed of PSUPT Bernie Banac, Bro Boi Manuel, Bro. Jojo Dellosa and Ptr. Dan Afaung also shared encouragement to the volunteers and convinced them to raise support among their church members to sustain their ministry.

Earlier in the day, the BOC team was invited by Tagum City’s K95FM through its Saturday Morning DJ Ted Cabana who was very supportive of the PNP’s reform effort in the city. PSUPT Banac explained on air of the value of churches in blessing the community as well as having a police which is supported by the PNP.

The group also had a chance to minister towards some MBK brothers lead by former PI Lurobe “Gemboy” Rojo. The former PNPA CCF Cadet-In-Charge who now leads a PNP detachment in the hinterlands of Davao Del Norte was blessed by the visit and was encouraged by familiar faces that has blessed him during his cadet days.
