Pastor Apollo Quiboloy of the Davao-based Kingdom of Jesus Christ celebrated his birthday with less privileged children and some politician-friends on Abril 25, 2018.

DAVAO CITY – Thousands of less privileged children and some politicians gathered on Wednesday to celebrate the birthday of Davao-based Kingdom of Jesus Christ founder Apollo Quiboloy.

The children enjoyed food, drinks, toys, fun rides and a meet-and greet with their favorite cartoon and movie characters in an event Quibuloy dubbed as the 13th International Children’s Day.

Among the politicians who celebrated with Quiboloy on his birthday were Gov. Aimee Marcos, former Cong. Samuel Pagdilao, former Batangas Governor Antonio Leviste, and Davao City Councilor Jimmy Dureza.

Public Attorney’s Office chief Persida Acosta was also at the event.

President Rodrigo Duterte sent a three-layered cake to Pastor Apollo Quiboloy's birthday. Duterte, his long-time friend, was not around during the event.

President Rodrigo Duterte, a long-time friend of Quiboloy, did not attend but he sent the religious leader a 3-layered violet cake.

His daughter, Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio, also gave Quibuloy a chocolate cake.

One of the guests, film actor ER Ejercito, meanwhile revealed plans to produce a movie based on Quiboloy's life story.

“We are in the level of doing a lot of extensive research about the life of Pastor Quiboloy in his humble beginnings in Pampanga up to here in Davao City,” Ejercito said.

Quiboloy thanked his guests for coming, but said they did not discuss about politics.

“Pumunta sila dito to celebrate with us and see the event and the kids,” Quiboloy said.

The religious leader did not mention his experience in Hawaii where he was briefly detained over cash and guns found inside his private plane.

But his legal counsel, Atty. Israelito Torreon said the pastor has realizations on what happened.

“Siguro ang lesson is be aware of what our companions are bringing with them. The pastor has not felt anything about it although the person involved is close to his heart, being the member of his church,” Torreon said.
