Whispers of faith echo through the decades here at Hanwoori Church, nestled in the heart of Gangdong-gu, Seoul. This isn’t just a building. It’s a living testament to the power of prayer and community. Hanwoori Church, also known as Oryun Community Church, has been a beacon of hope since its founding in 1988. Its presence has touched countless lives, not only within Seoul but across South Korea and beyond. Remember the “2016 Daniel Prayer” revival? For 21 days, the sanctuary pulsed with the fervent prayers of 73,000 participants. Nineteen guest speakers, from religious leaders to a former baseball coach, shared their testimonies, igniting a spark of faith in all who listened. The music resonated with the voices of renowned praise teams and artists like Park Ji-min and Soriel, creating an atmosphere of pure worship. But the impact extended far beyond these walls. The revival reached over 3,000 churches nationwide and hundreds of thousands online across 49 countries. The church’s commitment to community is evident in the pledges for coal briquette deliveries and donations of faith books generated during the event. Oryun Vision Center, the church’s main facility, is a testament to its growth and influence. It’s a place where thousands gather every Sunday, drawn by the shared faith and sense of belonging. The church also operates Oryun Vision Village, a retreat center outside of Seoul, providing a space for reflection and spiritual growth. Hanwoori Church stands as a symbol of resilience and unwavering faith, its story woven into the very fabric of Seoul’s spiritual landscape. It’s a place where prayers are answered, lives are transformed, and hope continues to bloom.
