In welcoming the great news of Pastor Jimmie Teves’ and the Himamaylan 7’s recent acquittal of all charges against them, we echo the wisdom of Paul’s word to the Corinthians in 2 Corinthians 2:14: “But thanks be to God, who always leads us as captives in Christ’s triumphal procession and uses us to spread the aroma of the knowledge of Him everywhere.” 

In Psalm 104:13–14, God says, “Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress.” The entire United Church of Christ in the Philippines (UCCP) embraces this truth. He freed them from their bonds and led them out of the complete darkness. We celebrate Rev. Dodo Vallente of Bohol Conference, Inc.’s long-awaited release from prison after he was wrongfully imprisoned for five years on trumped up charges.
