On August, 1965, Lunglei District started functioning as a separate district and was called “South Mizoram District”, which included Chhimtuipui District.A few years after UPC was first established in Aizawl in 1950, Rev.Saihnuna and Rev.Lalbiakthanga (they were Evangelists at that time) were preaching at Tuichangral Tarpho village. They started having their own worshipping service on September 26, 1952 (Friday) night and they were followed by around 32 members, where the UPC was first established in the southern part of Mizoram.

The Circle Conference held on March 16, 1957 at Theiriat Village passed a resolution to separate the southern area into a District or Sub-district, which was the first time a resolution was passed to form a separate district. As a result, there were Sub-District Board and the Pastors collected their reward at Lunglei town.By the year 1958, the Southern district had two Pastors on their own – Pastor Lalthima and Pastor Zahlira, but unfortunately Pastor Zahira passed away two years later in 1960. Pu J.Laltluanga was appointed as Pastor the same year and a District Conference was held at Thangte village on 1961. A resolution was passed that the South District will have a separate District Conference. After a long and careful consideration, Rev.E.L.Scism (Founder Missionary) allowed the Southern area to function as a separate district on 1965 and was named “South Mizoram District”, the district was called under this name till 1980 even after “Chhimtuipui District” was established and separated from this District in 1975.
