Apollo Carreon Quiboloy (Template:IPA-tl) is a Filipino pastor and church leader of the Philippines-based Restorationist church called the Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KJC). Previously a member of the United Pentecostal Church, he founded the Kingdom of Jesus Christ church on September 1, 1985. He is internationally known as the Appointed Son of God.

Early life

The youngest of nine children of Kapampangans José Quiboloy y Turla and María Carreón y Quinto (born December 28, 1913), Quiboloy was born on April 25, 1950, in Tamayong, Davao City. Both his parents were natives of Lubao, Pampanga, and had migrated to Davao City following the end of the Second World War to find better opportunities. Quiboloy spent his formative years in Pampanga before moving back to Davao.

He spent eight years in Parang, South Cotabato where he graduated from High School while living with the family of his eldest sister, Helen. He was later presented an opportunity to go to Bible School and began his life as a preacher of the Word of God.

Before he established the Kingdom of Jesus Christ church, Quiboloy was a member of the United Pentecostal Church, a Oneness Pentecostal denomination. Quiboloy's father, José, was already a Protestant (a member of the Christian and Missionary Alliance) but converted to Oneness Pentecostalism with his four sons. They all became preachers and leaders in the United Pentecostal Church of the Philippines (UPCP), the largest Filipino Oneness Pentecostal Church, which is affiliated to the U.S.-based United Pentecostal Church International.

Church background

Quiboloy is the founding leader and Executive Pastor of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ, The Name Above Every Name which has around seven (7) million followers around the world. He began preaching in the slums of Villamor, Agdao, Davao City with only a handful of members during the Kingdom of Jesus Christ's early years.

The sect's main Cathedral is located along Buhangin National Highway in Davao City, adjacent to the Francisco Bangoy International Airport.

His followers refer to their community as the "Kingdom Nation." On weekdays, members hold bible sessions and prayer services. On Sundays, a "Global Worship" is held at the Cathedral in the Buhangin District which is broadcast worldwide through Quiboloy's international television network, Sonshine Media Network International.

Media holdings

Quiboloy has a global television network, the Sonshine Media Network International which includes seventeen (17) radio stations broadcasting in the Philippines.

Involvement in sports

In June 2014, Quiboloy founded Sonshine Sports Management, the newly created sports management group based in Davao City. SSMI organized different boxing and basketball events within the city.

Political involvement

In the 2016 national elections, Quiboloy and the members of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ endorsed the presidential candidacy of the pastor's close friend, Davao City mayor Rodrigo Duterte and his running mate Senator Alan Peter Cayetano. Quiboloy also lent his private jet and helicopter to be used in Duterte's presidential campaign.
