In April 1993 Northern California Berkeley, Great Commission Christian Church (GCCC) was founded by Pastor Joseph Tien along with a dozen young people with the vision of building a church focused on the presence of God in the last generations. Started with the English-speaking congregation, later due to the great needs of the gospel, GCCC began the Chinese mandarin-speaking Sunday worship service in the fall of 1997. On January 1, 2001 they officially joined the River of Life Christian Church family as one of ROLCC’s branch churches. The Great Commandment, Great Commission and the return of Christ is their vision; building a glorious church for the glorious King's return is their mission. They focus on brothers and sisters’ spiritual growth. In addition to prayer, cell group, reading the Word, devotion, and equipping classes, they also put great emphasis on next generation ministry. They have weekly children Sunday service, and youth/children Sunday school. They are also actively involved in mission, while supporting multiple local and oversea mission organizations for many years, they continue to serve the community with their whole heart. Since 2010 January, Pastor Joseph and other East Bay Area pastors started a joint praying meeting every Thursday night, building the foundation for united prayer between brothers and sisters in the churches. In October the same year, he established the East Bay Minister Renewal Fellowship for local Chinese pastors, giving them time to communicate, pray and equip each other. Through the fellowship and prayer events among these churches, it also brought unity among these local churches. In 2012 September, they moved into a new and more ideal location, expanding the ministry furthermore. Pastor Joseph retired in 2018, and church ministry continues to be led by preacher Joannie Chiu, and pastor Joseph moved on and actively involved into global ministries and expanded God's kingdom. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, they have moved their weekly gatherings and Sunday services online. In July 2021, they held the first outdoor barbecue event since the epidemic to re-establish physical contact with church brothers and sisters. But because the rented meeting place has been taken back by the landlord, after praying with one heart, they plan to still focus on online gatherings. At the same time, they feel that the Lord is leading them into a new season, a season without space and time constraints. Beginning in August 2021, the Great Commission Bread of Life Church has been transformed into a Kingdom Service Center, led by Pastor Tian. Transform from a local church to a kingdom ministry center. His vision is: to equip the people of the kingdom of God, enter the seven mountains of society, and bring out the transformation of the kingdom. May God lead them to break through and renew in this new season, experience God’s power together, see God’s deeds, and gain God’s abundance.
