This is a planning & preparation retreat as we enter into the 2018-2019 season.

Join the church as we prayer walk through the Hongdae University Town area. Known as one of the major social and entertainment hubs of Korea, we want to partner with God through prayer in lifting up this highly influential district that shapes the cultures, the values, and the expectations of the next generation.
