HISTORY OF CAPITAL CITY ALLIANCE CHURCH
(Source: The Philippine Christian Alliance by Dr. Bayani Mendoza, 1985, pp. 113-126)
In early 1950s, the Alliance Youth and Professionals from Zamboanga, Sulu, Davao and Cotabato were migrating to the Metro Manila for works and college studies. At that time, there was no single Alliance church in Metro Manila and the entire Luzon. The leaders of C&MA Mission and CAMACOP decided to start ministries in Metro Manila to cater the Alliance members who were migrating to Metro Manila.
In 1953, the C&MA Mission commissioned Rev. & Mrs. E.F. Gulbranson to open a Mission Home in Metro Manila in order to shepherd Alliance Youth Fellowship members studying in Manila, and to receive missionaries entering the country and to act as liaison officers between C&MA Mission and the government of the Philippines. On that same year, the Gulbransons started Bible studies and fellowships among Alliance Youth and Professionals who already here in Metro Manila. They first gathered at Dominga St., Pasay City. The group grew so fast that before the end of 1953, two deaconesses from Zamboanga, Ms. Teodocia Bello and Ms. Ella Villalon were sent to Metro Manila to reinforce the Gulbransons.
In 1955, the C&MA Mission bought a property at Sandejas St., Pasay City and the leadership decided to move the Bible study fellowships there. In the same year, another group was organized in the slum area of Tondo. The two fellowship groups were growing because more students and families continued to arrive year after year. On March 1955, the C&MA sent another reinforcement from Zamboanga City arrived at Manila, Ms. Ruth Ziemer, to work among the students.
In 1958, there were 2 growing congregations in Metro Manila area and they gathered every Sunday at the Mission Home in Sandejas St., Pasay City for worship, nurture and fellowship. The Gulbransons left for the US for their much needed furlough and Pastor Raymond Kowles and family took their place. The group was increasing in number and they needed more space. They had been on the lookout for a lot between Quiapo and University of the Philippines in Diliman, Quezon City. Their search ended when they felt led by the Lord to purchase the lot where CCAC is now standing for the last 49 years.
The C&MA Mission purchased the lot, drawn the building plans, and invited Pastor. & Mrs. Gervacio Dimaano to be their first national pastor so that Pastor Raymond Kowles was free to devote more time to the supervision of the construction. This he undertook with all possible speed that both church and parsonage were dedicated on November 5, 1961 with the members of 2 fellowship groups as members and with the official name as Capital City Alliance Church. This is the beginning of the Capital City Alliance Church, the first Alliance Church in Metro Manila and the entire Luzon.
In partnership with the C&MA Mission and CAMACOP, Capital City Alliance Church started planting church in Metro Manila and nearby provinces, then later all over Luzon. Here is list of few local churches planted by CCAC in Metro Manila.
- Pasay City Alliance Church
- Pilar Gospel Church
- South Manila Alliance Church
- Alliance Gospel Church – Valenzuela
- Alliance Fellowship Church
- Sunshine City Alliance Church
- Fairview Bible Church
- Novaliches Alliance Church
- UP Bliss Christ Fellowship
- Project 8 Alliance Church
- Alliance Holiness Church
- Makati City Alliance Church
- San Juan Alliance Church
- CCAC planted more churches in provinces
In 1961, there was only one local church in Metro Manila and entire Luzon. CCAC did become a mega church because of her mission to plant churches in Metro Manila and Luzon. As of September 2010, CAMACOP reports shows that there are now 84 local churches in Metro Manila and 393 local churches in the entire Luzon. To God be the glory. Amen.
