Oil Refinery Christian Church

Visited this church by an accident on the way to National Kaohsiung Center for the Arts (Weiwuying). The Sunday morning service (mandarin service) was very rich learning content, not like other churches I have visited before. The parishioners were very friendly and made a special welcome announcement by the end of the service. After service lunch gathering was fantastic, very homey vibe, everyone was chatting among each other and made me felt welcomed.

Beautiful building and near the station.

In the early 1940s, the Kaohsiung Refinery was regarded as the largest and top-notch factory in Taiwan. Although it is located in Nantun District of Kaohsiung City, it is surrounded by farmland and is extremely remote. The main joint outside Zuonan Road is connected to Zuoying. On the road, the bus schedule is scarce; The Christians who served in the refinery started from the family gathering of 2~3 people, and the number of people increased. They went to the aluminum-house meeting of the refinery kindergarten and officially established the church on February 17, 46. The activity has a close relationship with Zuoying, so it was named "Left Camp Oil Factory Christian Church"; After the establishment of the church, it borrowed land from the refinery. Construction began on May 1, 52, and a wooden church was built. It was completed on September 8, 52. The church profile is shared by the "Oil Factory Christian Church" website. 16:16 2019/8/29

The newly rebuilt church is still clever and beautiful. There is a clinic attached to the oil factory opposite the church, and there is a quick-repairing shoe repair master.

The mountains are not high, the gods are named, the people are not there, and the Lord is the spirit.
