On June 21, 2026, the Dumaguete Negros Oriental Family Church conducted a Home Church (HTM) Sunday Service in the Carale HTM area of Tanjay City, Negros Oriental, with a total of 13 participants in attendance. The activity was led by Pastor Pedro Dibdib as part of the church’s continuing efforts to strengthen Home Church ministry, membership education, and witnessing among Cheon Bo couples, Blessed Families, and their relatives.

The Sunday Service forms part of the Dumaguete Family Church’s ongoing strategy of encouraging Cheon Bo couples and Blessed Couples to actively witness to their relatives, neighbors, and friends through one-on-one, family-based, or small-group outreach. This approach aims to deepen the faith of existing members, reconnect previously blessed couples, and guide participants toward becoming regular attendees who actively support the providence of True Parents and the work of Cheon Il Guk.

Recognizing that many members reside in areas outside Dumaguete City, Pastor Pedro Dibdib regularly visits Home Church communities to conduct Hoon Dok Hae, Sunday Family Services, and membership education. The June 21 gathering was held in the Carale HTM area, approximately 40 kilometers from Dumaguete City, where Cheon Bo couple Jose Jerry and Emily Carale continue to educate and care for the couples within their Home Church mission.

Participants in the service included Andres and Angeles Amaro, the Villaflores family together with their grandchildren, Blessing candidate Helen Sabado, second-generation member Cheon Il Carale, Victoria Carale, who was on vacation from Korea, reconnecting member Remedios Carale, and Cheon Bo couple Jose Jerry and Emily Carale. Their participation reflected the continuing efforts to strengthen family-based ministry and expand the foundation of Home Church in the area.

The Carale HTM Sunday Service serves as a meaningful model of effective Home Church ministry in communities located more than an hour’s travel from Dumaguete City. It demonstrates how consistent pastoral visits, family-centered education, and the dedication of local spiritual parents can strengthen membership and witnessing efforts. Alongside the ministries of the Amaro couple in Pamplona, the Laranjo couple in Dauin, and the Rabutin couple in Tayasan, the Carale HTM area continues to contribute to the advancement of the Heavenly Tribal Messiah providence and the completion of the Vertical and Horizontal Ancestors Liberation and Blessing.
