LAPU-LAPU City MAYOR LAUDS LOCAL CHURCH'S 40 YEARS OF SERVICE

LAPU LAPU CITY, Philippines – Mayor Cindi King Chan lauded the Mactan Independent Baptist Church Inc. for its four decades of community impact Monday in a message celebrating the congregation's 40th anniversary.

Posting on her official social media page, Chan highlighted the church's journey from modest origins to a membership exceeding 5,000.

"Forty years of faith, unity, and dedicated service is truly remarkable," Chan wrote. "This milestone reflects a community that has consistently been a guiding light, strengthening families, inspiring hope, and nurturing a genuine love for God."

The mayor credited the church with helping to shape a "more compassionate and God-centered community" in Lapu Lapu City. "Your steadfast devotion has touched so many lives," she added.

Chan expressed hope for the church's future, stating, "As you look back with gratitude and move forward with renewed purpose, I pray that the Lord will continue to bless your ministry, empower your work, and guide every step of your journey."

She concluded her message partly in Cebuano, encouraging continued "faith, cooperation, and a heart for serving the people of Oponganon" – a term for residents of the city, which was historically named Opon.

"Congratulations once again on your 40th Anniversary, and may your ministry continue to flourish for many more years," Chan said.

The Mactan Independent Baptist Church was established in 1984.

This Christmas season, let us not forget to whom the reason of this holiday season is due:

Psalm 103:1 Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

Who we are, what we are, where we are or what we have or what will come... all credits are for GOD alone...
Be thankful to Him for this season is about HIM not us. Amen...

Police nab six wanted persons, illegal loggers in Mindoro and Palawan crackdown

CABANATUAN — Police in the MIMAROPA region arrested six suspects in coordinated operations on Monday as authorities intensified their campaign against wanted fugitives and illegal logging, with Mindoro emerging as a focal point of the enforcement drive.

The arrests, carried out by units from Bansud and Lucena in Oriental Mindoro and officers in Occidental Mindoro and Palawan, targeted one of Lucena City's three most wanted persons and five individuals accused of timber smuggling.

In Oriental Mindoro, a 55-year-old suspect identified as "Jimmy" was apprehended in Barangay Poblacion, Bansud following a joint operation by Bansud and Lucena police. He ranks third on Lucena's most-wanted list and faces charges under the Anti-Violence Against Women and Children Act (Republic Act 9262), which penalizes abuse and violence against women and children. His recommended bail was set at ₱108,000.

A second suspect, 64-year-old "Benzali," was arrested for violating the Chainsaw Act, a law prohibiting the unauthorized use of chainsaws for timber extraction and designed to combat illegal logging activities.

The police operation expanded to **Mindoro's western coast and Palawan**, where anti-illegal logging teams conducted three separate interdiction operations overnight. Officers intercepted a 38-year-old suspect known as "Erwin" near midnight in Mamburao, Occidental Mindoro while transporting 111.66 board feet of undocumented Lawaan wood valued at ₱6,699.

Hours later in Roxas, Palawan, combined police and Department of Environment and Natural Resources personnel arrested two men, "Rolly" and "Dominador," both hauling approximately 200.7 board feet of Ipil wood worth ₱30,105 without required permits. Officers also seized a motorbanca and related equipment.

All suspects arrested in the logging operations face charges under Presidential Decree 705, the Revised Forestry Code that prohibits unauthorized cutting, transporting, and trading of forest products without government permits. Violators can face imprisonment and substantial fines.

All six suspects remain in police custody pending court appearances.
