History[edit]

In 1989, the congregation of believers in Victorias was aspired to look for an available pastor. As far as the former presbyter of western visayas was concerned, Arthur Salaver from Talisay, Negros Occidental was preordained. Arthur Salaver was a student of Bible college and had completed his biblical studies at Baguio Evangelism Academy of Ministries[3].

Later on, the Presbyter, introduced Arthur Salaver to preach one-time to the congregation of Victorias and as the result, Arthur gained the entire support of the believers. Finally, Arthur took possession of the church's pastoral vacancy upon pastoral installation. Since then pastor Arthur held the leadership over the believers of the church.

In 2014, the church adopted the name “ultrafidian[4]” and eventually became Ultrafidian Center. The church went through difficult challenges but the word ultrafidian[5] will keep reminding the church to surge its faith in God.
