The Life Chapel is an evangelical church of the Brethren denomination. It currently has over 300 members, and adheres to a lay government. This comprises an Oversight of elders, and a Diaconate. It holds a variety of meetings throughout the week, culminating in the Lord's Supper and Worship Service every Sunday morning.
In 1966, several members from the Jalan Gasing Gospel Hall (now known as the Petaling Jaya Gospel Hall) were entrusted with the responsibility of starting a Christian work in the new area of Petaling Jaya known as Section 14. Beginning with home prayer meetings and gospel sessions, the Life Chapel was formally established on 1 January 1967. Meetings took place in a member's house until a shop house lot at 601, Jalan 17/12 was made available in July 1967. This was to be the Life Chapel's address for 19 years.
Desiring to be a permanent Christian witness in Section 17 Petaling Jaya, the Life Chapel purchased a 33,000 sq ft piece of land in 1971. However, it was not until some 13 years and many obstacles later that approval was finally given by the authorities to erect the church building on this land. In the two years that ensued, the Assembly continued to face many struggles as the church was constructed, but the Lord faithfully steered His people through them. The Life Chapel was finally able to move into its new premises at 9, Jalan 17/21E on 22 June 1986.
