On November 10, 2024, the Church of God celebrated 60 years since its founding in South Korea and 10 years in New Windsor, NY. Over 200 guests joined the celebration, enjoying Korean food, an exhibition, Bible studies, and traditional Korean performances.
Food often serves as a welcoming introduction to a culture and community. With this in mind, guests enjoyed food booths offering Korean dishes like japchae, kimchi fried rice, hotteok, and tteokbokki. In addition, the event highlighted the Church of God’s core biblical teachings and values guiding its 60-year global commitment to service.
Our Mother Exhibition Opens to Celebrate 60th Anniversary
Guests also walked through the Our Mother Exhibition, which shares writings, photos, and videos showing a mother’s love and sacrifice. Through personal stories from Church members, the exhibition offered moments of reflection, bringing back touching memories of a mother.
“This festival was a beautiful reflection of the unity and love we strive to cultivate in our community,” said a church representative. “We were honored to share this special day with the New Windsor community and to showcase the rich cultural heritage of South Korea, as well as the church’s mission of spreading peace and love to every corner of the world.”
Local Leaders Honor Church of God’s Service and Initiatives
Local leaders joined the activities to honor the Church of God’s long-standing dedication to the community. Awards were presented to the church in recognition of its service in New Windsor and across New York State. The awards also highlighted the church’s commitment to its ongoing initiatives. Upcoming events include the International Day for Tolerance Anti-Bullying Forum and the year-end Human Solidarity Day Celebration.
