Religion and Faith – Shincheonji Zion Christian Mission Center Holds Record-Breaking 110,000 Graduation Ceremony
The Zion Christian Mission Center and Chairman Man-Hee Lee of the Shincheonji Church of Jesus, the Temple of the Tabernacle of the Testimony, held their 115th Joint Graduation Ceremony on Wednesday, October 30th, at the Shincheonji Cheongju Church Branch. Many overseas graduates flew in to attend the ceremony.
A total of 111,628 graduates participated in the ceremony, marking the fourth time that over 100,000 graduates have graduated. This record-breaking number follows the 103,764 graduates in 2019, 106,186 graduates in 2022, and 108,084 graduates in 2023.
Originally planned to be held at Imjingak Peace Park, the location was unilaterally cancelled the day before by the Gyeonggi Tourism Organization. Nevertheless, many attendees followed suit to the new location at the Shincheonji Cheongju Church Branch.
While numerous graduates from both domestic and international locations arrived, the event also attracted foreign religious leaders who visited Korea specifically for the graduation ceremony. The graduation was streamed online, allowing many graduates from other domestic branches and multitudes tuning in from overseas churches to participate.
