Our church was officially founded in 1993. Its membership consists of both a Chinese-speaking first generation of immigrants and an English-speaking second generation. We hope to foster the church according to Biblical principles and by relying on the Holy Spirit and exalting Jesus. The church is a living testimony of the body of Christ to honor God.

God has blessed the church, our spiritual home on Earth, in many areas. Here, we receive God’s provision, learn how to serve, and grow together in Christ. We also love and take care of one another, laugh and cry together, and enjoy God’s grace together! “Sinners saved by grace” is our identity. We hope to grow in the Lord’s grace, so the whole church and every individual member can become a testimony of Jesus Christ as “the word become flesh”. We know that God’s will must be finished through Christ and the church, so “Christ and Church” becomes the only measurement of our words, service, behavior, and life.

The church is His witness and manifests His will.

• Our pastor teaches us how to have a real and close relationship with the Lord in our daily lives. In this way, our lives can be changed continuously by the Lord and bear fruit to honor Him. A beautiful spiritual life is our foundation and it is also the reason that we can be the Lord’s testimony.


• We emphasize team service. In all activities, by the Lord’s grace, we hope to have the testimony of one body, love each other, and practice forgiveness. Because of this, the percentage of members actively participating in service is very high.


• The Lord’s words are His special provision to our church. Spiritual food is abundant, not only at special retreats or Bible studies, but also in Sunday worship meetings. The Sunday music worship (in Chinese and English) is our enjoyment and sacrifice to God. We also especially value every Sunday’s breaking of bread.

In addition to the church in Silicon Valley, we have also established the Cedar Training Center. There, we use multi-media, print, Internet, and training classes to serve many brothers and sisters. Our Web site serves Christians from over 20 countries, eighty percent of whom are from China. We sincerely wish God will use our church to bring life to this generation, to showcase his rich grace, and to encourage believers from all over the world.
