✨ Honoring Korean War Veterans in Paju With Heartfelt Service ❤️


More than 200 graduates from the Zion Christian Mission Center of the Shincheonji Church gathered on November 29 to prepare 1,000kg of kimchi for Korean War veterans, hoping to honor a history that many say is slowly fading from public memory. 

At a kimchi factory in Paju, volunteers followed detailed hygiene training, checked each other’s aprons and sanitary caps, and worked with sincere care as they prepared boxes of kimchi to deliver to those who once carried the burden of protecting their country. 



International volunteers also joined the effort 🌍, expressing deep respect for the young soldiers who fought in the war and sharing hopes for a peaceful world without conflict. As participants shifted from kimchi-making to packaging, the work finished earlier than expected, and many volunteers reflected that although the task was tiring, it felt light compared to the sacrifices veterans had made. 

Veterans expressed gratitude for not being forgotten, while volunteers felt humbled, saying that offering kimchi alone could never match the weight of what the veterans once endured ✨.



✨ Yeongdeungpo Volunteers Share Love Through Kimchi for National Heroes ❤️


Graduates of the 116th class from Shincheonji Yeongdeungpo Church celebrated their completion by volunteering on November 29 to make kimchi for national meritorious persons, turning the teachings they learned from the Bible into real action. 

At the lively volunteer site, graduates prepared pickled cabbage, mixed seasoning, and packed kimchi with joyful teamwork, sharing tips like “add plenty of seasoning” and “cut the bottom so it’s easier to eat.” 



Many expressed deep gratitude as they worked, including one graduate who said she thought of her grandfather, a Korean War veteran, while participating. 

A total of 30 boxes of kimchi were delivered that day to five veterans’ organizations in Dongjak District, with an additional 70 boxes scheduled for delivery on December 1 to groups in Bucheon, Gangseo, and Yangcheon. 



Leaders from veterans’ associations shared their appreciation, saying such acts of kindness truly help the country, while the church branch leader encouraged graduates to continue living as “light and salt,” putting love into practice just as Jesus taught. ✨🌍❤️


✨ Sharing Warmth in Nowon: Graduates Join a Year-End Kimchi Festival ❤️


Graduates of the 116th class from the Zion Christian Mission Center in the Seoul James Tribe marked the end of the year by joining a kimchi volunteer festival on November 29 in Sanggye-dong, Nowon. 

Guided by the message of “practicing God’s teaching to serve,” over 100 graduates helped prepare 250 heads of salted cabbage, mixed the seasoning, and packed the finished kimchi into 150 boxes filled with warmth and gratitude. 

The festive event also featured game zones, food-sharing booths, and craft activities, creating a joyful community atmosphere. All 250 portions of kimchi were delivered to local veterans’ organizations, including the Nowon branch of the Korean Veterans Association and the Korean War Veterans Association, whose leaders expressed sincere thanks for the meaningful support. 

The tribe leader shared hopes that this volunteer activity would inspire graduates to continue spreading love and kindness in their communities ✨🌍❤️.

A total of 255 graduates from the 116th class of the Zion Christian Mission Center in the Shincheonji Doma Tribe joined their "first Kimchi Volunteer Step” in Jeonju, gathering from nearby regions like Iksan, Gunsan, and Jeongeup. 

Over three days, they harvested 1,300 heads of cabbage in Bongdong and helped prepare kimchi with grateful hearts for completing their studies. 

The 320 boxes of kimchi were delivered through the Korean War Veterans Association and local community centers to seniors living alone and families in need. 

Graduates shared that serving with the love they received from God and Jesus made the experience meaningful, hoping the kimchi brings comfort during winter, while leaders encouraged them to continue spreading small acts of kindness that brighten their communities ✨❤️🌍.


✨ A Warm Beginning in Gumi: Graduates Share Love Through Kimchi ❤️


On November 29, graduates of the 116th class from the Shincheonji Thaddeus Tribe gathered near Gumi Station to prepare 1.5 tons of kimchi as part of their “First Step” volunteer event, celebrating their graduation by putting their learning into action. 

Around 220 participants from regions including Daegu, Pohang, Gumi, Gyeongju, and Andong worked together to season and pack the kimchi, creating a lively and warm atmosphere. 

The finished kimchi was delivered to eight local veterans’ and welfare organizations, which expressed gratitude for the meaningful support during the year-end season.

From Emptiness to Enlightenment: How Shincheonji’s Bible Lessons Changed Lives 🌟


Have you ever met someone who said, “This class changed my life”? That’s exactly what thousands of people are saying after completing the Zion Christian Mission Center of the Shincheonji Church of Jesus. 🕊️ Even those with no previous faith found their hearts and lives completely transformed — calling it a turning point in life.



🌱 Discovering Peace Beyond Religion


A recent survey of 1,285 soon-to-be graduates revealed something remarkable — 97.9% said their lives changed for the better after taking the Bible course. 🌟


When asked what changed the most, 99% gave positive answers, and more than half — 50.7% — said they found inner peace and stability.


Many in their twenties said they finally escaped feelings of anxiety and emptiness. One student, who had grown up in church, shared that they always feared death but now found peace through understanding God’s true purpose. Another, in his seventies, said he finally felt calm and grateful for life itself. ❤️



💡 Finding Purpose and Direction in Life


The second most common change? A new sense of life direction. About 42% of respondents said they now live with clear goals and purpose. One graduate said, “I used to drift through life without a goal, but now I feel grateful — I finally know what happiness and purpose mean.”


This shift wasn’t just about religion — it was about rediscovering meaning. People found new values, courage, and even love for themselves and others. Many said the experience taught them how to reflect deeply on life and relationships.



🌍 Growth of Faith and Understanding


For 46.7%, the biggest change was spiritual growth. A participant in their twenties said they had studied the Bible for years but never really understood it — until now. “At the Zion Christian Mission Center, I learned the Bible clearly for the first time,” they said.


A man in his sixties shared, “I used to struggle with believing in God. But through Revelation, my faith became firm.” These stories show that this education goes far beyond theory — it awakens hearts.


What’s truly surprising is that 57% of graduates had no prior religion at all. This means people who once had no interest in faith came to trust the sincerity of Shincheonji’s teachings after studying them firsthand.



✨ A Journey of Transformation and Hope


Graduates described other beautiful changes too:

  • Developing a positive mindset (41.2%)

  • Gaining forgiveness and love (38.3%)

  • Improving relationships (25.8%)

  • Learning better stress management (20.4%)

  • Finding new perspectives on career and society (16.5%)


These numbers show that the teachings of Shincheonji Church aren’t just spiritual lessons — they touch every corner of life. 💡



One participant said, “At first, I thought it was just a Bible lecture. But it became a mirror to my heart and my life.” Another added, “It helped me set a standard for how to live — not just as a believer, but as a person.”


In total, 99.6% of respondents said the course helped them understand the Bible and true faith, while 94.5% were satisfied with the instructors and program — 73.3% were ‘very satisfied’. 🌟



❤️ A Light That Shines Beyond Faith


On November 2, the 116th Graduation Ceremony of Zion Christian Mission Center was held at the Cheongju Church of Shincheonji under the theme “Love and Blessing, the Light that Illuminates the World.”


Shincheonji Church said, “The Zion Christian Mission Center helps people not only deepen their faith but also find the true meaning of life through proper understanding of the Bible.”


They plan to continue spreading positive influence in both personal and social spheres — through truth, knowledge, and love that restore the essence of faith. 🌍



It’s no wonder why so many people, even without prior belief, are finding a new beginning here. For them, the Word was not just knowledge — it was light, peace, and a second chance at life.

🙏 Pastors Among the Graduates: A Surprising Change


Despite ongoing opposition and misunderstanding toward Shincheonji Church, the number of graduates continues to grow. This year, 2,248 pastors completed the program, bringing the total number of pastoral graduates over the past four years to more than 13,500.


A former pastor who had planted three churches shared her testimony:
“I always thought I was serving God faithfully, but I couldn’t understand Revelation. Even after reading the Bible over 30 times, I had no answers and eventually stepped down from ministry.”


She said that everything changed from the very first class at Zion Mission Center. “In just one hour, my heart opened. Every lesson was based purely on Scripture and truth. Now, I can confidently say, ‘I have mastered the Book of Revelation!’”


She also encouraged fellow pastors: “As shepherds, we must lead our flock to heaven through the Word. Let us be humble before Scripture and be sealed as those who understand the promised Word.” ✨



💡 The Bible That Changes Lives


Not only pastors but also ordinary believers shared similar experiences of transformation.

A man who had been a Presbyterian believer for over 40 years confessed, “I used to criticize Shincheonji and even watched programs attacking them. But after following my wife to the Zion Mission Center, I realized Shincheonji teaches exactly according to the Bible. My misconceptions disappeared completely.”


Another graduate, a 19-year-old from the Netherlands, said she flew 16 hours just to attend the ceremony in person. “Shincheonji Church teaches every verse of the Bible by comparing it with other verses, not through human opinions. That’s what makes it different from other churches,” she said with a bright smile. 🌟



🌍 A Global Graduation of Light and Blessing


This year’s ceremony was held under the theme “Love and Blessings, the Light that Shines upon the World.” Over 20,000 graduates filled the Cheongju Church and its surrounding areas, while thousands more joined online from across Korea and around the world.


President of Zion Christian Mission Center, remarked, “Even amid severe misunderstanding and persecution, the number of people who are renewed by the Word continues to grow. This proves that God is working with us.” He added, “These graduates have realized the reality of the Bible that even pastors did not know. A new era of faith built on truth, not human doctrine, has begun.”


As the crowd lifted their voices in celebration, the message was clear — faith rooted in understanding, not tradition, is transforming lives across the world. The light of the Word is spreading, one believer at a time. ❤️

 🔑 Key Point

Shincheonji Church in Tanzania held the first large-scale public Bible test on Revelation with local pastors, marking a historic moment of scripture-centered dialogue and self-examination.



📖 Shincheonji Tanzania Church Hosts Revelation Bible Test with Local Pastors


🌍 A Historic First in Tanzania


On August 18, Shincheonji Church of Jesus, Peter Tribe in Tanzania, hosted a remarkable event across four major cities including Dar es Salaam. Nearly 140 participants—98 local Protestant pastors and 40 Shincheonji members—took part in the “Public Revelation Bible Test.”
This was the first time overseas that such a large number of pastors joined, making it a milestone in biblical exchange.


💡 The Purpose of the Test


The exam was based on Revelation 22:18–19, which warns believers not to add or subtract from God’s Word. Instead of measuring knowledge alone, the aim was deeper: to reflect on whether one has truly kept the Word in faith.
The test contained 10 main questions and 33 sub-questions, all centered on Revelation. Participants examined not just their understanding, but also their obedience to the Scripture ❤️.


📊 The Results & Reflections


  • ✔ Average score of Shincheonji members: 95

  • ✔ Average score of Protestant pastors: 7

Although the numbers showed a wide gap, the real purpose wasn’t competition. It was an opportunity for honest reflection before God. 

One local pastor confessed that he was deeply moved by the confidence of Shincheonji members. He pledged to study Revelation through the Zion Christian Mission Center and to guide his own congregation in the right path toward heaven. 🌟


🙏 The Biblical Standard Emphasized by Chairman Man-hee Lee


Chairman Man-hee Lee has consistently highlighted Revelation 22:18–19 as the standard of true faith. He stresses that the criterion for truth and heresy is not human tradition or doctrine, but the Bible itself. This message resonates globally, urging all believers to examine whether they are living according to the Word.


🌱 Growing Shincheonji in Tanzania


Since its establishment in 2018, Shincheonji Tanzania has grown to more than 2,440 members as of August 2025. Through steady engagement with local pastors and believers, the church is becoming a hub of Bible-centered fellowship. This public Bible test marks a turning point, opening doors for more dialogue and scriptural unity in the region. 🎉



✅ Conclusion

The Revelation Bible Test in Tanzania was not about winners or losers, but about returning to the Bible as the sole standard of faith. By inviting pastors and believers alike to reflect on God’s Word, Shincheonji Church is pioneering a new path of unity through scripture.

 🔑 Key Points

- 400 ushers from 7 churches in Gwangju & Jeonnam trained in CPR 🧑‍🤝‍🧑

- Practical training in chest compressions, AED use, and choking response 🫀
- Focus on “golden time” ⏱️ to save lives
- Expansion planned for all church members 🌍


✨ 1. Safety in Worship: More Than Just Guidance



When people enter a place of worship, they expect peace, comfort, and protection. But emergencies can happen anywhere—even in church. That’s why the Shincheonji Peter Tribe organized a large-scale CPR training for 400 ushers across seven churches in Gwangju and Jeonnam.

These ushers aren’t simply guides helping people find their seats. In urgent moments, they may be the very first to respond. Their actions can make the difference between tragedy and survival. ❤️



🫀 2. Why CPR Training Matters So Much




CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) is one of the simplest yet most powerful ways to save a life. According to health statistics, survival rates nearly double when bystanders perform CPR instead of waiting for medical staff to arrive. That “golden time” of just a few minutes can protect the brain and keep the heart beating long enough for professional help to take over. 💡

For a church that welcomes hundreds weekly, ensuring that ushers are trained is a direct investment in protecting every person who comes to worship.



💪 3. How to Perform CPR: The Core Steps




The training began with medical professionals explaining the correct process. Here’s the step-by-step guide participants practiced:

- Point out specific people by their features—ask one person to call 911 and another to bring the AED. 📞 (dial 119 in Korea).

      For example: “You, the woman in the skirt, please call 911. And you, the man with glasses, please bring the AED.”

      AEDs are usually available in subways or large buildings.

- Start chest compressions: Push hard and fast in the center of the chest.  

       Depth: about 5 cm (not more than 6 cm).

       Speed: 100–120 compressions per minute⏱️.
- 30:2 ratio: After 30 compressions, give 2 rescue breaths (if trained).
- Hands-only CPR: If you’re untrained or uncomfortable giving breaths, keep pushing without stopping.
- AED use ⚡: Place pads on the chest, follow the machine’s voice instructions, and deliver a shock if advised.
📌 Source: Korean Disease Control and Prevention Agency (2020 CPR & First Aid Guidelines)


Many ushers said they were surprised by how much physical energy CPR required, but repeating the exercise helped them feel prepared for a real-life emergency. 🌟



🫁 4. The Heimlich Maneuver: Saving Someone from Choking




In addition to cardiac arrest, choking is another common and dangerous emergency—especially in gatherings where food may be present. Trainers also taught the Heimlich maneuver, a simple but life-saving technique.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Stand behind the person and wrap your arms around their waist.

  2. Make a fist and place it just above the navel.

  3. Grasp your fist with your other hand and deliver quick, upward thrusts into the abdomen.

  4. Repeat until the object is expelled or the person can breathe again.

This technique can restore airflow in seconds, often before medical help arrives. 🫂 Ushers practiced this too, realizing how important it is to be ready for not just one type of emergency but many.



🌍 5. Training That Builds Confidence and Community




With 30–40 medical trainers guiding them, the ushers practiced repeatedly using CPR mannequins, AED trainers, and choking simulations. They received direct feedback on posture, hand placement, and rhythm until it felt second nature.

One usher reflected:

“I once learned CPR in the military, but I had forgotten almost everything. This training refreshed my memory and gave me confidence to respond.”

Another added:

“I was surprised at how tiring CPR is, but repeating it helped me realize how serious and important it is.”

These words show that the training didn’t just teach techniques—it gave participants courage. 🌟



💖 6. Churches as Places of Safety and Love




The program was organized during Korea’s national Ulchi Freedom Shield (UFS), emphasizing the role of churches not just in spiritual guidance, but also in community safety.

A church representative explained:
“When cardiac arrest happens during worship, responding within the golden time is critical. That’s why we prepared this training.”

Looking ahead, the Peter Tribe plans to expand the program so that all members, not just ushers, receive CPR and emergency training. Imagine a whole community of people ready to save lives—what a powerful expression of love and responsibility. ❤️



🌟 Final Thought




We often think love or service must be something big or distant. But as this training shows, sometimes love looks like two hands pressing in rhythm, keeping someone alive until help comes.

For the Shincheonji Peter Tribe, training ushers in CPR and the Heimlich maneuver wasn’t just about safety—it was about living out care, responsibility, and the value of every single life. 🌍✨
