Holy Light Church, Johor Bahru (14 September, 2016)


Holy Light Church (GPS: 1.46508, 103.75744) is a Presbyterian church in Johor Bahru. Founded in 1886 by Presbyterian missionary, Reverend John Angus Bethune Cook, it is one of the oldest churches in the state capital. The church has its address on Jalan Gertak Merah. In the early days, there would be services in Chinese and also in English. The Chinese language used was originally Teochew, before it was eventually replaced by Mandarin.

In the first decade of the 21st century, the English services relocated to Hillville (and is now known as Holy Light Church English, or HLCE), while the Chinese services are still held at the original site at Jalan Gertak Merah in downtown Johor Bahru.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
