Most of the credit for this magnificent cathedral goes to pastor Rev.Robert Schuller who started preaching from the roof of the drive in theatre in 1955 and gradually paved way for the present edifice which was opened in 1980. Rev.Robert Schuller devoted the whole of a quarter century in achieving this dream.
