Penang Christian Centre (7 December 2009)


Penang Christian Centre or PCC is a charismatic church along Khaw Sim Bee Road in Penang. It traces its history back to 1981, when the first service was held in the hall of the Penang Chinese Girls' school, attended by 15 believers. It was recognised as a Home Mission Church by the Assemblies of God, Malaysia, on 1 February, 1982. Services were held at Rasa Sayang Hotel and Dewan Sri Pinang.

In 1987, the Penang Christian Centre started its Hokkien worship service. The youth ministry was also started at the end of that same year catering to secondary school students. In 1989, the church purchased the 6th floor of Canton Square, holding its first service there the following year.
