Lieng Bong chapter was established in 1967 and officially recognized by Lam Dong provincial government in 2010. In 2014, in order to facilitate religious practices of over 200 Protestants in the chapter, Lam Dong provincial authorities approved for the chapter to build its new church in area of 360 m2. The new church was completed after four years of the construction, at the total cost of over VND 2.3 billion.
