BRO. BO SANCHEZ leads the distinguished speakers who will bring God’s message to the Kerygma Conference 2009 to be held at the Araneta Coliseum on November 28-29, 2009.

BO SANCHEZ, much sought-after preacher and best-selling author of more than 15 books, received the 2007 Serviam Award at the Catholic Mass Media Awards and was named as one of The Outstanding Young Men of 2006.

Bo is the founder of the Light of Jesus Family, and has pioneered many organizations such as Shepherd’s Voice Publications Inc., which publishes Kerygma, Mustard, Fish and his many books, and Shepherd’s Voice Radio and Television Foundation, which produces Kerygma TV, Mustard TV and Inside the Fish Bowl. He has spread the Gospel through the Internet in his live reality show, Preacher in Blue Jeans, and Kerygma Family, a borderless, online prayer community. Bro. Bo founded Anawim, a home for abandoned elderly. He supports He Cares, a home for street children, and Tahanan ng Pagmamahal, an orphanage. His ministries continue to grow by leaps and bounds — the most recent additions are Grace to Be Born, a pro-life ministry that operates a shelter for pregnant women in crisis, and Pag-asa ng Pamilya, a foundation that grants scholarship to poor but deserving students.

He leads the Feast, a Sunday prayer meeting of the Light of Jesus Family held at the Valle Verde Country Club in Pasig City.

ALVIN BARCELONA, folksinger-turned-preacher, has a monthly show on TV Maria titled Nakita Ko (also the title of his book) and two radio programs on Radio Veritas. Healed from a lingering disease, he has really championed his trials. He is the Feast Builder in Bulacan.

JON ESCOTO, mission director for FAMILIA (a nationwide parish movement for the evangelization of families) and a corporate training consultant, gives seminars to Philippine Government employees in tandem with Beaconlight Development Center. His teachings refresh and inspire people not only to be good at work but also to become better in life. He recently launched his first book titled Go Find Extraordinary Joy at Work.

OBET CABRILLAS, a powerful preacher and spiritual director of Youth Mission for Parishes and Churches (YMPACT), is known for his sense of humor, making him a popular speaker in youth gatherings. Early this year, he retired from his long-time work in a government bank to give way to fulltime ministry. He is the Feast Builder in Manila. 

ARUN GOGNA, insightful educator and preacher, works full-time in ministry now. He uses his experience as a former theology professor in seminars to develop worship leaders and strengthen Charismatic communities. He writes and sings well, too. His book, Gognuts, continues to draw good sales. He is the Feast Builder in the Metro Manila South.
