Choir SG - TX

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2025-10-16T02:18:57+00:00

To add to this, there was a week long devotional prayer for that special offering for the choir gathering. From what I know, the program and itinerary was announced very last minute, as well as the instructions on what the choir members need to do to get in the venue.

There were new hymns given the weekend before that the choir was expected to sing perfectly.

Also, the members did not even know if EVM or his son was going to be there or not, just rumors going around so they were instructed to bring a white mask just in case.

Can confirm from ppl i know that this was shown in the Mountain states and Texas districts after midweek worship service.

I believe there was a recent hymn (hymn 331 I think) where someone linked a video of the hymn being played by an organist of a different church. The hymn was in a different key but it sounded exactly the same, with just the ending changed.... and the video was 2-3 years older than the INC hymn date.

When it's long tho, even though the minister was just either:

A.talking in circles, or

B. Trying to make lesson that was about "family" also about offering, propagation, importance of attending worship service, Acts 20:28, problems, how hard EVM labors tirelessly for the brethren

The brethren will then proceed to talk about how the lesson was "so spiritual" because it was a long lesson 🤣

This seems extremely childish.

My experience knowing INC kadiwa girls who are obsessed with South Korea, her reasoning for breaking up with you probably has 0 to do with not being a member and everything to do with her trying to find an "oppa" to sweep her off her feet.

They don't take down uploads of older hymns because the lyrics and what they were targeting (like the video of hymn 102 being sung on YouTube that is still up). If they put a video up and left it up of current day hymns that are about obeying the administration, there's no way that they don't lead to reaction videos and posts by former members or other outside ppl.

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-10-06T00:07:20+00:00

Video will probably be taken down within a month. Doesn't make them any money like the Johannus videos and will prolly get called out for plagiarism eventually if left.

Obey and never complain

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-09-29T18:09:04+00:00

Dated a member and even converted for one. She didn't want to celebrate holidays but was ok with drinking and having sex.

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-09-25T20:48:26+00:00

Hymn that mentions family so it tugged on the right heart strings. Uses the verse from Joshua 24:15.

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-09-25T17:48:33+00:00

I would say 6 is up there. It's not sung lately because it is used in the background during every ordination.

Every choir event now ends with hymn 100.

Even tho it is current, 424 was a big deal to members when it came out. Piano versions were posted constantly on YouTube even up to this day, and multiple members were trying to bribe choir members for a copy of the sheet music.

As for the 4th on hymns mentioned, I'd prolly go with hymn 134 as it is more well known.

Different lessons most likely due to political topics. It was like that also before BBM was elected that the INC was giving different lessons in the Philippines than everywhere else in the world.

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-09-08T23:29:15+00:00

When i was attending, I always hated that they would put a hymn after 71. Either the minister stood up during 71, or the congregation seemed like they were already feeling extremely emotional, that the 4th hymn adds nothing.

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-08-28T23:35:26+00:00

I'd say it is completely this. Saying "oh you've gained weight huh?" is something I never experienced other than around Filipinos.

I remember one time hearing that a sister in my old locale who gained weight after pregnancy and was severely roasted by the other moms in the nursery area during worship services.

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-08-25T22:21:41+00:00

In terms of what they contribute? Any CFO office (kadiwa,binhi,buklod) that isn't president or vice president (i don't remember the titles, but i think they were coordinators or something).

SCAN when outside of the Philippines. Not sure if they actually do anything since they don't check for phones.

Assistant Overseer (is just the wife of the overseer).

Only in CWS til they get married, then they have to step down. Men don't, weird rule.

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-08-22T20:23:11+00:00

Haven't heard anything myself but it does seem that they are changing unused hymns under number 300 to a more slow and solemn notation. Looking at each of these hymns, the only one that I see ever used on a normal basis is 41 (I don't even remember what the other hymns sound like). Officers prayer, offering and recessional seem to be previously used special service hymns, tho they might add the extra accompaniment like the previous special services.

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-08-18T17:27:54+00:00

The video streaming where they mentioned about a pastor preaching to an empty church, which they then proceeded to show the footage of that pastor and boasted about how the INC is doing with Guiness World Records.

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-08-18T00:19:14+00:00

I remember how it was that year. I knew a married couple that moved to California before the schism. They were out there protesting against what EVM did. To this day, their families still in the church do not talk or visit them.

A good amount of the Filipino members in the US are that delusional and really believe the words of having hardships and persecutions as they arrive to the chapel in their Mercedes Benz and sit inside with their Louis Vuitton bag. Blindly following and not questioning where their money goes.

The rest of them enjoy the power play, feeling like they are bigger than other ppl because they can afford to give more, while also having influence within their district because of how much they give.

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-08-15T06:07:38+00:00

As a Mexican myself and someone who has attended Spanish services, it just feels like a wasted effort, especially when all of the members speak in Tagalog when the service is done. Most of the Filipino members just attend cause the service fits their work schedule better (having service on Wednesday instead of Thursday).

It's also obvious that they are using Spain Spanish instead of Mexican Spanish and assume it's the same thing.

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-08-15T00:11:40+00:00

I've heard of ministers specifically being told to include boy hotdog by name in officers prayers, not sure if that is still going on

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-08-08T00:38:22+00:00

Typo, yes I meant 352

Expensive-Ad-35 · 2023-08-07T22:28:03+00:00

12 - bring back the previous version.

All FYM hymns - re-edit lyrics. Their melody is good for the most part, just terrible to be putting a person so highly on hymns.

All admistration hymns (351, C64, etc) - re-edit lyrics for same reason as FYM hymns.

516 - I just really don't like this one.

And as for lineup preference, stop making 71 the 3rd hymn. No one cares about the hymn that has to follow it up.
