This report outlines the activities and developments of the Korean Worship Community over the past year.

Over the reporting period, the Korean Worship Community has continued its ministry as a small but committed congregation, gathering weekly to worship God and to grow through His Word.

From late 2025, the worship service time was changed to 9:30 a.m. on Sundays, marking a new season for the community. Aligning the service time with the English and Mandarin congregations has enabled families to participate more fully in the life of the church, particularly through children attending the children’s ministry. This change has presented both challenges and opportunities and has encouraged greater integration with the wider church community.

The revised service time has also prompted more intentional engagement with the local Korean community. While growth has been steady rather than rapid, this season is understood as a period of preparation, with trust that God is at work beyond what is immediately visible.

During this period, the community has also welcomed Helena (Shin Soo-ju), who attends worship with her carer. Helena was born with a congenital intellectual disability. Although communication can be challenging, she participates in worship and small group fellowship. Her presence has strengthened the community’s understanding of inclusion, shared worship, and mutual care as the body of Christ.

Looking ahead, the Korean Worship Community continues to prioritise the spiritual growth of those currently gathered, the stable establishment of the ministry following the service time change, and the cultivation of a welcoming and caring worship environment for all. The community remains grateful for the prayers and encouragement of the wider church as it moves forward together.
