Senator Bong Go expressed his strong support for the Iglesia Ni Cristo's (INC) National Peace Rally, highlighting the importance of peace, unity, and public service. Go emphasized the need for Filipinos to come together to address the nation's challenges, especially those facing the most vulnerable sectors.

"Magkaisa tayo para makapagtrabaho na tayo nang maayos para sa bayan at makapagserbisyo sa kapwa natin Pilipino," Go urged, stressing that unity is key to effectively helping the country, especially the poor and those in need.

He extended his appreciation to INC and its leadership under Kapatid Eduardo V. Manalo for organizing such an important event that serves as a reminder of the value of peace and unity. "Ang layunin ng peace rally ng Iglesia Ni Cristo ay hindi lamang para sa mga miyembro nito kundi para sa lahat ng Pilipino na nagnanais ng kapayapaan," Go remarked, recognizing that the rally's purpose resonates with every Filipino.

The senator highlighted the need for a peaceful life—where healthcare, food security, employment, and education are accessible for all. He called for a government that prioritizes the welfare of Filipinos, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to thrive in a safe, prosperous nation.

"We must work together for a better future, especially for those who need our help the most," Go added, urging everyone to support the peace rally's objective of seeking divine guidance to overcome the nation's challenges. He concluded by reminding Filipinos to act with compassion and kindness, for this life is fleeting, and every good deed counts.

Senator Go’s message echoed the sentiment of Vice President Sara Duterte, who also praised the INC's efforts for peace and unity in a recent statement. Both leaders continue to advocate for a peaceful and prosperous future for the Philippines.

"Maraming salamat sa inyong malasakit sa bayan. Mabuhay ang Sambayanang Pilipino!" Duterte expressed, emphasizing the shared commitment to overcoming the nation's difficulties through unity and faith.

A Call for Unity

Both leaders believe that no matter how challenging the road ahead may be, peace and unity can lead to the collective success of the Filipino people. The INC National Peace Rally serves as a significant moment for Filipinos to reaffirm their commitment to one another and the nation.
