| THE APPOINTED SON OF GOD BRINGS SALVATION TO CALIFORNIA |
|
Hundreds of people packed international television evangelist Pastor Apollo C. Quiboloy’s concert and healing crusades to overflowing capacity at Van Nuys, Southern California, USA. The Airtel Plaza Hotel, beside the Van Nuys airport and the sprawling compound of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ The Name Above Every Name along Vanowen St. were standing room only during the two consecutive concert and healing crusades last October 25 and November 1, 2009.
Pastor Apollo C. Quiboloy, who is the Appointed Son of God in these last days, had come straight to Van Nuys, California aboard the Kingdom’s Executive Jet N200AQ from Davao City, Philippines for the first leg of his North American Tour, which also includes key cities in Canada.
He brought along with him his regular camera crew and directors, as well as a team of singers and musicians, who regularly accompany him in his regular worldwide tours. The Kingdom is firmly established all over the United States and Canada, as well as all over Asia, Europe and Australia.

People came from Van Nuys and nearby cities Panorama, North Hollywood, North Hills, Mission Hills, Carson City, Long Beach, Glendale, Torrance, even Anaheim and Temecula as well as Stockton, Delano, Fresno, Daly City and San Francisco, and many of those who had heard about Pastor Apollo’s liberating message of salvation even flew all the way from New York, Connecticut, Maryland, Virginia, Montana, Florida and even as far as Hawaii just to receive a message they knew no one except this Filipino pastor has ever preached before.
Hevoy Russel, a Jamaican who has been living in the United States for more than 12 years said that “ the Kingdom is wonderful, its almost indescribable It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity, once you step into here you’re instantly adorned with God’s blessings and given everything you need and you smile. And people treat you like royalty. The kingdom is everything and all you need is faith. If you have faith then you need nothing more.”
Describing the Kingdom’s worship venues as “heaven”, Hevoy said that he learned from Pastor Apollo that “if people follow God’s will you definitely will be able to do anything and every morning you wake up with a smile there is no object that can stop you.”
Ed Joe Arnett, an American who has been attending the thanksgiving and worship presentations at the Kingdom’s Vanowen compound for two months now said that he has continued listening to Pastor Apollo because “he introduced me into a life that includes the Father and that’s really something...now I am reading the bible... I just want to follow His will, I want to live the way He wants me to,” he said. |

“It’s done a lot for me so far, in just those two months...so i urge everyone to please attend and learn how to be happier and learn to live a life that includes the Father. That’s it...come here to [the Kingdom] in Van Nuys,” he added.
Race, religion and educational background did not come between the listeners and Pastor Apollo’s message, as Americans, Filipinos, Mexicans, Africans, Europeans and other countries easily took to the preaching they heard, which dwelt mainly on how important reconnecting with the Almighty Father is for every human being, and how through the Father’s Appointed Son, people around the world are now able to return to Him and obey the Father’s will in their lives. This, Pastor Apollo stressed in his preaching, is the key to attaining salvation and becoming sons and daughters of the Father.

Many of those who attended, like Keith Basil of Alhambra, California, who came with his wife and four children have regularly been following Pastor Apollo in his weekly broadcast over KVMD TV Channel 23, “Gospel of the Kingdom,” which broadcasts weekly every Sunday from 5:00 am to 8:00 am. It is seen over five counties in Southern California Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, San Diego, and Riverside counties.
Basil discovered Pastor Apollo’s program while in the hospital for his daughter and found his message “very enlightening and enamoring” because he “agreed with what he said about the powers that were running the world and religion. ” Basil believed that Pastor Apollo was one of the “special people chosen by God to deliver a special message to the people and was truly blessed by the Kingdom.”
Another viewer, Eleanor Robles of Buena Park, said that she had only been watching Pastor Apollo for a month but she had become “addicted to listening to him.”
“Every time I hear his message I am so happy and joyful. I feel so blessed, and my life has changed now because I am constantly happy and blessed,” she said.

The Gospel of the Kingdom as viewed on KVMD Channel 23 is a direct feed from the ACQ Kingdom Broadcasting Network, the Kingdom of Jesus Christ’s international TV network located in the “New Jerusalem” which is in Davao City, Philippines. It is the only Philippine television network broadcasting from the Philippines to the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia and Africa on free TV.
Pastor Apollo capped the US leg of his yearend King is Coming Tour Concert Healing Crusade at the Kingdom Worship Center Compound in Van Nuys, California last November 15, a week after he had a triumphant concert at the Marriott Pinnacle Hotel in Vancouver, BC, Canada. |
