A source says INC members from Negros Occidental who arrived early in Cebu City joined the 'pre-assembly' Sunday night at the INC District Church in General Maxilom Street

NEGROS OCCIDENTAL, Philippines  More than a thousand Iglesia ni Cristo (INC) members from this province, including Bacolod City, will be joining the INC rally in Cebu City on Monday, August 31.

The national leadership has reportedly directed its members to replicate the rally in Metro Manila and mass up in some key cities in the country, particularly in Cebu and in Davao.

Reports gathered by Rappler indicated that some INC members here have already left for Cebu on Sunday, August 30, while others are expected to arrive Monday.

A source said that those who have arrived early have joined the “pre-assembly” on Sunday night at the INC District Church in General Maxilom Street, in preparation for the “major rally.”

As of this writing, the venue for the rally is not yet known but it could be in front of the Provincial Capitol in Fuente Osmeña Circle in Cebu City or in any government offices, the source said.

Over Net 25, the INC’s television channel, reports said many of the INC rallies outside Manila will be held in front of justice halls.

The rally in Cebu is only until Monday but “pending instruction from Manila,” the source said.

“Everyone from Negros Occidental and Negros Oriental are encouraged to join the rally in Cebu,” the source said.

Iglesia members are calling on the government to take its hands off an illegal detention complaint filed against the INC leadership by expelled minister Isaias Samson.

Three ministers, who were earlier reported missing, denied the allegations that they were detained or abducted. – Rappler.com
