Penang Christian Centre

Penang Christian Centre or PCC is a charismatic church in Penang. It traces its history back to 1981, when the first service was held in the hall of the Penang Chinese Girls' school, attended by 15 believers. It was recognised as a Home Mission Church by the Assemblies of God, Malaysia, on 1 February, 1982. Services were held at Rasa Sayang Hotel and Dewan Sri Pinang.

In 1987, the Penang Christian Centre started its Hokkien worship service. The youth ministry was also started at the end of that same year catering to secondary school students. In 1989, the church purchased the 6th floor of Canton Square, holding its first service there the following year.

PCC celebrated its 10th anniversary at Shangri-La hotel, in a lavish dinner attended by the then chief minister of Penang, Koh Tsu Koon. Two years later saw the seeding of Ipoh Christian Centre. The church planting continued with the establishment of Sungei Petani Christian Centre, SPCC, in 1996. Harvest Christian Centre, PCC's third outreach, was set up in 1997, and today occupies the premises at Canton Square.

The land for the Penang Christian Centre community centre at Khaw Sim Bee Road was purchased in 2000, with construction started the following year.
