The Church of God started as a house church in Busan, Korea. Based on the dedication and sacrifice of Christ Ahnsahnghong, the gospel gradually spread to the metropolitan area and throughout the country. After Christ Ahnsahnghong finished His 37-year ministry, the church has devotedly preached the gospel of the new covenant and practiced God’s love, following the guidance of God the Mother. As a result, the number of registered members reached 10,000 in 1988 and 100,000 in 1996. | The Church of God started as a house church in Busan, Korea.
