Three words: Faye San Juan.

How would you classify them? Born-again? Baptist?

^^^ I don't see the connection... how's the issue of Faye San Juan related to Bread of Life? Since it's supposedly a hoax, so I assume it's already a non-issue... right?

Because it was through the Bread of Life Ministries that the hoax first circulated. Pastor Bong Saquing wrote this long article about Faye's "tribulations" in Australia, and even bought a full page in a newspaper for the article, a thinly-veiled cheap shot against the government. (A full page in a broadsheet costs hundreds of thousands of pesos!) Bread of Life Ministries orchestrated the media hoo-ha that ensued (helped in no little way by a sympathetic article written by a gullible teenage columnist) - until the hoax was revealed and Pastor Saquing was forced to apologize.

That's the connection.
