History
Founded in 1954
Daily Manna
COP has always been about teaching and living the Word of God. This has led to the establishment of numerous ministries that work hand-in-hand for a sole purpose of winning every person for Jesus. One of which is the DAILY MANNA Project – a feeding program that provides meals to at least 2,000 kids and their families, in the poorest parts of Manila every single day, rain or shine.
With a vision to “Build 200 churches in the next 20 years”, COP is well on its way to doing just that. To date, churches in Bataan, Batangas, Laoag, Cebu and Davao have already been planted. Lipa, Olongapo, Hawaii and Singapore will soon have their own branches too.
Bible Radio
Another notable milestone happened last January 29, 2017, when the congregation formally launched its very own radio station – DZBR 531 BIBLE RADIO.
Bible Radio is a non-profit AM Radio Station that aims to cover the Nation and the World with the Gospel through programs about Jesus and His Word – made with love by the committed volunteers of the Cathedral of Praise Manila.
