During the era of Japanese occupation in 1942, the truth was preached to the household of Bro. Kong Loke Long (Later ordained as deacon), who stayed in mining land of Perak through two believers from the True Church, that is Philip Kong (later ordained as deacon and has rested in peace) and his wife. Bro. Kong's family were originally members of Methodist Church for three generations. Thank God, the salvation came upon the family through the will of God. Before this, he was inflicted with a strange disease, and he could not speak and eat for 3 days, and his life was in danger then. Many non-believers personally witnessed that the disease may have no cure.
Dn. Kong and his family prayed in one accord in the name of the Lord Jesus. God listened to their prayer, and the Holy Spirit filled them. After the prayer, Dn. Kong could speak immediately, and his illness was cured. Thank God, the non-believers who witnessed this miracle with their own eyes were amazed. All the glory be unto God.
After some time, a prayer house as established at the house of Dn. Kong. There were approximately 70 believers attending every Sabbath service. The Holy Spirit worked mightily and miracles were manifested, the demon-possed were released from their bondage and received peace. Even a dead child was raised from death and many of the sick were healed and received peace through prayer.
In 1946, the Holy name of the Lord began to spread in Perak. During the British empire the paryer house was moved to Sg.Durian until 1986. Thank the Lord's guidance, one piece of land was found later at Chendrong, a nearby area of Batu Gajah. The Church was later dedicated to the Lord. Chendrong Church has 50 years of history now. During the period of time, many believers moved to other places. At present, there are 40 believers in the church and the service was led by Dn. Kong. RE classes are conducted to cultivate the faith of the next generation, so that, they can fight a good battle for the Truth and become the successors of the church in the future.
