Victory General Santos (Victory GenSan) turns five on June 26!  In 2005, this church started with several small groups meeting at a senior pastor’s house to discuss the Purple Book. They grew in number and had to  move to a bigger location until they were able to acquire their own worship center. They were officially added to the Victory family in  2007.

Today, Victory GenSan has close to a thousand attendees in their Sunday services. They currently hold LIFE classes in eight colleges and high school campuses.  Indeed, God’s work is growing strong in this region. In fact, Victory GenSan is aiming to reach the whole of SocSKSarGen (South Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, Sarangani, GenSan) for Jesus, and with God’s help, it will be!

During their anniversary on Sunday, June 26, they will hold a one-time worship service at 5PM at the KCC Convention Center. After the anniversary, regular worship schedules will resume for the next Sundays thereafter—9 AM, 10:45 AM, and 4 PM.

If you have family and friends in General Santos City, make sure that you not only invite them there to experience the Tuna Capital of the Philippines or to check on Manny Pacquiao’s boxing mementos, but most importantly, invite them to Victory GenSan to experience God’s best for the city. Happy anniversary, Victory GenSan!

Amanda Lauzon serves as administrator of Victory General Santos, and Joppet Tan is a campus minister based in the area.
