BBC News has the story:

Archaeologists in Rihab, Jordan, say they have discovered a cave that could be the world’s oldest Christian church.

Dating to the period AD33-70, the underground chapel would have served as both a place of worship and a home.

It is claimed that it was originally used by a group of 70 persecuted Christians who fled from Jerusalem.
