In 1991, Pastor Lapiz established the first congregation in a small room at the McDouton Building in Quezon City. The organization eventually acquired a building on Leon Guinto Street in Manila, which became the site of the Church Administration. Eventually, another building was acquired in Makati, where the Church Administration later moved.Church missions expanded within the Philippines and the Middle East. Worship services were held in cinema theaters, including Shangri-La Mall, Glorietta, and Makati Cinema Square, until 2005. That year, the church leased the Folk Arts Theater at the Cultural Center of the Philippines Complex, dedicating it as the Bulwagan ng Panginoon. The Bulwagan became a venue for Sunday worship services and performances by the church's groups. The Church still has the Makati Center as one of its outreaches.
In 2012, Day By Day Church established a new branch at the Better Living Tricycle Terminal in Barangay Don Bosco, Parañaque.
