The Holy Church of God was located in the City Center district of Night City.
Overview[]
By 2020, this ornate, fundamentalist church managed to survive the departure of a large portion of the religious mobsters after the Mob War quite well. Many corporate executives visited this building to ease their conscience instead. The bell tower also served as a broadcast antenna for KNOW, the church's religious radio station, which pretended to be a part of a national chain of christian stations. The station manager, Dieter Scheumann, was able to generate a lot of revenue by broadcasting a variety of "charity" programs under the pretense of Christian network programming "Just send your donations to P.O. Box...". If anyone ever found out, the station (and therefore the church) would be in a lot of trouble.
Reverend Paul Night (no relation to the founder of the city) was the church leader. He was an honest, caring man, and his wife — Mary Night — was a person of some importance in several area charities. They were always willing to help street kids, and therefore the kids would protect them from being hassled. The Nights didn't condone this, as violence was usually involved, but that was the way things were. Needless to say, Paul and Mary Night were unaware of KNOW's false programming.[1]
