Record attendance of more than 800 delegates underlined the success of AIM’s historic 36th National Convention held for the first time at the new national headquarters in Lapu-Lapu. Billed as the Grand Opening-Grand Reunion, AIM extended a hearty welcome to former AIM brethren during the national convention at the new headquarters that featured a recently enlarged sanctuary and other fresh touches through the complex.  The format of the convention was also extended to include church services from Monday through Friday night, as well as morning services and mid-day teaching sessions for ministers and the Sisters.
