Our History
Renewal Lutheran Church (RLC) was founded by Pastors Joshua & Carey Yee in 1988. The first church service was held on the 2nd Floor at a rented premise located at Jalan 222, Petaling Jaya.
In 1991 as the church continued to grow, the RLC moved to Jalan 227. Within 3 years the seating capacity of 350 was filled and a second service was started in 1994. In 1996 God spoke to Pastor Joshua and the Church through various men of God.

Early one morning at 4.00 am God woke Pastor Joshua and gave him the blueprint of the Church of the Tomorrow. With great excitement Pastor Joshua began sharing the vision to the congregation. To confirm the vision given to Pastor Joshua, various men of God were sent to confirm the word:
"I’m giving you large premises for they shall be many storey." - Chris Gaborit, April 1996
"God says, expand and get another building. God is challenging you, the church to launch out into the deep. " - Vernon Falls, May 1996
"For you shall build for Me a centre of Davidic worship." - Joseph Prince, May 1996

God is indeed faithful to His promises!
On July 17, 1997, the church moved into the enlarged border of RLC tent in obedience to God's word "expand and get another building." This will be the house in which the RLC family worships till this very day.
