On the Passing of Ka Erdy

I join the nation in mourning the passing of a great Filipino and one of the country's foremost spiritual leaders, Iglesia ni Cristo Executive Minister Eraño G. Manalo.

The Iglesia ni Cristo would not be where it is today were it not for the tireless efforts of Ka Erdy to build upon what Iglesia founder Felix Y. Manalo established in 1914.

My whole family condoles with deepest sympathy to the Manalo family and the entire Iglesia ni Cristo.

May they find peace and comfort in knowing that his loss is felt by all who knew, respected and loved him.
