Good Neighbor Christian Fellowship

"Pursuing our Mission and Ministry Tasks">This Facebook Page contains important information about our mission and ministries. It is our hope that someday you will take the necesary step that will help you discover.Good Neighbor as your "home"away from home.

Our church started in 1992 as a fellowship of a few families meeting for praise and worship in the garage of a home in Chorillo Street, Barangka, Marikina City, Philippines.

We never stop marveling at the faithfulness of God in turning that small band of Christians into a felloship where lives both as individuals and a Christian community are being transformed and ministered to.

We pray you too will someday be a part of that wonderful story.
