About Us

May the world see that our Lord Jesus Christ is the one true living God through His church!

Bread of Life Christian Church in Taipei has experienced an abundant outpouring of God's love and favor ever since it was first established in 1954. We love because God first loved us and as disciples of Jesus, not only do we love one another at church through cell groups and discipleship trainings, we also seek to bring God's love into the seven spheres, or mountains, of societal influence: Religion, Family, Education, Government, Media, Arts & Entertainment and Business, thereby transforming our city for the glory of His Name. May the world see that our Lord, Jesus Christ is the one true living God through His church!
