In 2014, some members of Antioch Church of Philadelphia had an evangelism training and at the conclusion of it, they resolved to continue the life of evangelists. Under the guidance of Reverend Ho, they decided four things:

1. To evangelize in Upper Darby, which has more than 150 people groups. (Diaspora Mission)
2. To evangelize every Sunday. (Here and Now Mission)
3. To evangelize with what they were good at, such as teaching English and leading praise. (Professional Mission)
4. To evangelize with Antioch cell groups. (Local Church Mission)

These four decisions were based on the 4 core values of PGM, the mission organization that Reverend Ho founded. Hence, from the beginning, AANC has been a PGM mission center dispatched by Antioch Church of Philadelphia.

In 2015, the evangelism program developed into a church planting ministry with Pastor Eddie Ko. The ministry has gradually and consistently grown.

In 2018, AANC is officially launching as a local church with 30 plus local members.
