Our History


The journey of Bible Baptist Church - San Remigio began in the heart of Pastor Dante dela Rama. With a course to finish in Bible Baptist College - Cebu City, he heeded to call of starting a mission church in San Remigio Cebu. Bible studies were started, and eventually the first Sunday service was held on November 21, 2005.

Pastor dela Rama was raised in a Christian home. His father and mother were among the first members of Bible Baptist Church - Medellin under the leadership of Pastor Joel Ferrer. He listened to the children Sunday School class of Teacher Susan. At the age of 13, he got saved. He taught Sunday School classes for children, became a song leader, then an adult Sunday School teacher.

Fresh from high school, he heard God's call for him to preach. He tried to run away from the call. He enrolled in a secular course, but eventually God got hold of him on the fateful day of March, 2002 during the youth congress hosted by Bible Baptist Church - Katipunan. By June of that year, he was a freshman at Bible Baptist College - Cebu City.

The first Sunday service was held in a rented house in Poblacion, San Remigio Cebu. The mission church would stay there for almost five years. As people got saved and ministries were added, the small place could not contained anymore the thriving people of God. God blessed the church with a property in Calcalan, Poblacion, and the church worshiped there since then.

With God's blessing, Bible Baptist Church - San Remigio has opened several ministries. Bible studies were opened at homes and school campuses of nearby municipality of Medellin and the city of Bogo. God also opened opportunities up in the mountains. Indeed, the harvest is plenteous.

The church is still young, and we pray that as the church continues its journey ahead with God's blessing and promise, Bible Baptist Church will remain steadfast and committed to be faithful to the command in Matthew 28: 19.
