Iglesia ni Cristo's centennial celebration (July 27) broke Guinness World Records for the Philippine Arena being the world's biggest mixed-use theater in the world and for having the largest gospel choir during the worship service.
Iglesia ni Cristo members came in droves to Ciudad de Victoria in Bocaue, Bulacan to witness the church's centennial celebrations on Sunday. The focal point for the celebrations was the Philippine Arena, said to be the largest domed arena in the world, specially built for this celebration.
The 55,000-seat stadium could not accommodate the mammoth crowd that trooped to Ciudad de Victoria, however. A lot of the members, numbering over a million, just witnessed the celebrations on the grounds of Ciudad de Victoria, camping out the night before just outside the arena.
Those who managed to go inside were treated to the spectacle of the facility itself and program prepared for the occasion, including the performance of the 10,000-member Iglesia ni Cristo choir, accompanied by a custom built Johannus (Monarke) organ.
