Special Photo Exhibition of Shincheonji’s 100,000 Graduation Ceremony in Sydney
Over 300,000 people participated online through a live broadcast of the graduation ceremony which was translated into 9 different languages. With over 100,000 graduates from Zion Christian Mission Center (ZCMC) of Shincheonji Church of Jesus, it is the largest graduation in modern history by any theological institution. Notably, the number of graduates from Australia totalled 1,016 out of the 1,158 graduates within the region of Oceania.
There were a total of 522 pastors who completed the theology course and participated in the graduation ceremony. Two of them gave representative speeches on behalf of the graduates, namely Mr. Jeong-Wook Heo, a Korean pastor of 20 years and Pastor D. Jackson from India, who represented the overseas graduates.
One can only imagine how profound the impact of the teachings from ZCMC under Shincheonji Church of Jesus must be for so many people from different backgrounds, races and cultures, as well as experienced pastors to learn the same Word of God according to the Bible. Mr. Heo shared in his testimony that after having studied at ZCMC, “my true life of faith begins today”, and confessed that he only taught his congregation members “what was easy and left out what was difficult” as he “didn’t know anything about Revelation”.
Pastor Jackson shared a similar sentiment, expressing that whilst undergoing the theological course at ZCMC, he decided to sign an MOU with Shincheonji Church of Jesus in November 2021. He also changed the name of the theological seminary he operated to Hepto Zion Christian Mission Centre in May 2022.
Presently, 294 members including 2 head pastors of its branch churches, are also studying the same word that Pastor Jackson studied with ZCMC. During his testimony, Pastor Jackson urged people all around the world to listen to the word coming from Shincheonji Church of Jesus.
In the words of Chairman Man-hee Lee of Shincheonji Church of Jesus, all people must “become one in the Word”. The 106,186 graduates of class 113 of ZCMC have studied, come together and have become one through the words of the Bible. Included in this record-breaking graduation are over 1000 graduates from Australia.
As such, the Sydney branch church of Shincheonji Church of Jesus held a photo exhibition on Sunday, 18th December 2022, to commemorate this extraordinary event. The photo exhibition took place from 4:00pm to 6:00pm at Little B.I.G. House in Summer Hill, NSW and was open to the general public. Set to attend were various pastors and prominent community leaders who were eager to gain further insight into the graduation ceremony, and immerse themselves in the celebratory atmosphere that was felt by both those in Daegu Stadium and the graduates participating in the live broadcast all over the world.
To support all Australian graduates and see highlights of the 100,000 graduation ceremony of class 113 of ZCMC, 390 guests were in attendance, and were also able to witness the eye-opening work that the Sydney church has been doing for the community through volunteering activities such as tree planting, blood donation and aged care. All who were in attendance were touched by the incredible milestones achieved by Sydney church, and the most incredible experience, according to guests, was witnessing the 100,000 graduation exhibition, which can only be described as “miraculous” as it is only through the power of God that this could be achieved.
