To prepare for our 2027 launch, we are forming a launch community of leaders and team members. We will invite you to join our regular internal meetings, which will focus on equipping, prayer, and culture-building. These times are an invitation to grow together as we prepare for this next season. More information will be provided at START HERE our Vision & Interest Nights.
2026–2027

If you're curious about joining or want to be a part of our launch community, this is the event for you. 60 minutes to learn what COUNTER CULTURE is all about—our church community’s vision, strategy, and direction. Learn how you can be a part of it, even as simply as attending or belonging.
Our Culture Code names 10 phrases that describe who we are and defines the countercultural identity we are actively growing into; a distinct way of living that has marked the movement of believers from the very beginning. We do not claim perfection, but we hold these values with fierce conviction.
Hundreds are already expressing interest in Counter Culture Church, but in a community where many people face economic limitations, reaching more people doesn’t necessarily mean having more resources.
Your partnership will help us secure a venue, provide quality worship service equipment for hundreds of people, and create a safe, welcoming Kids’ Church—making room for more people to encounter Jesus, experience transformation, and grow spiritually.
A partner organization will match your giving peso for peso and dollar for dollar, multiplying your impact as we pursue revival in our nation.
Partner with us. Help make room for more encounters with Jesus.

OUR ACCOUNTABILITY STRUCTURE
Paul and Janine’s journey has been marked by a growing heart cry for revival, captured in their wedding tagline: “Revival with you.” Having served together in various capacities wherever their leaders needed them at Favor Church, they have faithfully embraced every season of ministry. Their most recent season was serving as Executive Pastors for Generations.
During the pandemic, God placed a vision in Paul’s heart to pioneer COUNTER CULTURE, a next-generation conference they were entrusted and empowered to lead for the past 5 years. At the time, they had no idea that this conference and the lives and teams they would see grow through it would become the seed for a new church. Through their own journey of brokenness, they have experienced the healing, freedom, and transformation that comes through the power of the Holy Spirit, and they have witnessed God bring the same restoration to the lives of many others.
Now, they are pioneering COUNTER CULTURE, a church for the hungry & the curious. Paul and Janine are passionate about the preaching of the Word, Spirit-led worship, ministering healing and freedom, and doing life and ministry together with joy.
COUNTER CULTURE is the public name of our church. COUNTER CULTURE CHURCH INC., a non-stock, non-profit religious corporation registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of the Philippines, owns and operates counterculture.online.
Our Mission
Chasing God encounters that change us and the culture around us. As we prepare for our launch in 2027, we’re already gathering, praying, and doing life together as a growing community of leaders and team members, with open nights and outreach for anyone hungry or curious who wants to come and see what God is doing.
North Ave/ Quezon Ave Area
Located at the convergence of three major cities with 7 million people within a 5km radius, the North Ave & Quezon Ave intersection is one of Metro Manila’s premier strategic crossroads.
Planting COUNTER CULTURE here places us directly in the path of daily foot traffic to reach the hungry, hurting, and curious.
To raise up disciples
To reach the confused
For revival in families
We are responding to a call to partner with the Holy Spirit in pioneering a church for all ages in Quezon City (Around the Quezon Ave/ North Ave Area) with a desire to impact Metro Manila where a community pursues encountering God in an experiential way, leading to true heart transformation.
We are devoted to seeing an army of disciples, leaders, pastors, and ministers rise up to see the power of God change the culture around us through Bible-based, expository, and revelatory teaching and preaching, and spirit-empowered prayer and worship.
In the years to come, we will develop teams, services, events, programs, conferences, and eventually schools where encountering the Holy Spirit leads to the equipping and empowering of His people to live out the message of Jesus.
