The Members Church of God in Jesus Christ Worldwide or MCGCJW (Spanish Official Name: Miembros dela Iglesia de Dios en Jesu Cristo en Todo El Mundo Inc.) is an independent Christian organization with headquarters in the Philippines led by Wilfredo "Bro. Willy" Santiago.

History

The group split from the Members Church of God International (MCGI) also known as Ang Dating Daan (ADD) last October 2009 over disputes over church leadership and erratic changes in doctrines (such as Prostrating towards the east in prayer), which they viewed as erroneous. Thus, receiving religious persecution and attacks from MCGI. Membership in MCGJCW now consists of former MCGI followers and Evangelical Protestant (Born-Again) adherents.

Evangelization

The church is active in propagating their doctrines and beliefs by utilizing all means of communication and technology available within their capacity. The MCGJCW uses social media, different networking sites, and radio broadcast in reaching other members in different parts of the(Born-Again Philippines and abroad.
