About Our Church
History
Pastors Diki & Henny Ngantung with Founding Partner Pastor Tim Cederblom
After setting foot in the United States of America in November 2002, Pastors Diki and Yohana Henny Ngantung began conducting church services on June 29, 2003 under the name of International Tiberias Church in the city of Ontario, California. In 2006, International Tiberias Church officially became an affiliated church with Assemblies of God – USA, where Pastor Diki Ngantung became an Ordained Minister of Assemblies of God. In 2011, Pastor Diki also received ordination from Wisdom Ministry, located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
During the church’s time, there were many healings and miracles that the Lord Jesus performed through the ministry of International Tiberias Church. In 2013, God entrusted International Tiberias Church to collaborate with Food Bank America (Second Harvest) to open a ministry to provide food for the needy and homeless in the surrounding cities of Ontario every Saturday afternoon.
Through various struggles, many prayers, and the will of God, on July 1, 2016, Pastors Diki and Yohana Henny Ngantung changed the status and name of the church to New Identity Church, a registered federal Nonprofit Organization 501(c)(3) to date.
By using a new name as New Identity Church, God gave annual visions to His ministry:
1st Year: Above the Crowd
2nd Year: The System of the Kingdom of God
3rd Year: The Royal Priesthood
4th Year: More than Conquerors
5th Year: Bountiful Harvest
6th Year: Be Strong and Courageous
7th Year: Bear Fruit
8th Year: Cornerstone
