Shincheonji Volunteer Group Commits to Bus Sanitisation and Environmental Services “Until the Eradication of COVID-19” in Cheongju, Korea
✦ Higher risk of infection on public transport facilities
✦ “I can manage my business with confidence”
✦ “We will serve as the hands and feet of society when needed”
In line with government regulations, Shincheonji Volunteer Group (SVG), which is the volunteer wing of Shincheonji Church of Jesus (Shincheonji Church), has continued to serve communities throughout the Covid-19 pandemic in South Korea.
The Cheongju branch of SVG committed to carrying out a sanitisation service "until the eradication of COVID-19" at several bus stops in Heungdeok district, Cheongju, Korea on the 11th September. Volunteers also provided other environmental services within the vicinity.
According to SVG Cheongju, in September 2021, more than 60% of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in North Chungcheong Province were concentrated in Cheongju.
On the 11th, a citizen (70s, female) who witnessed SVG Cheongju's Covid prevention measure, said, "I didn't know that Shincheonji was making such an effort to prevent the spread of COVID-19."
An official from SVG Cheongju said, "We, Shincheonji Volunteer Group, will continue to provide Covid prevention services until the eradication of COVID-19."
One local resident by Jungang shopping centre expressed his gratitude, saying, "Because of these Covid sanitisation services, we can safely and confidently operate our small businesses during these difficult times."
Meanwhile, SVG Cheongju continues to carry out various initiatives, including the preparation and delivery of homecooked meals to elderly residents who live alone in the Cheongju region, and the 'Visiting Health Doctor' initiative for isolated or marginalised residents.
Some 130km away, in Seoul, Shincheonji Volunteer Group's Eastern Seoul Branch has been carrying out weekly COVID-19 prevention measures since September 2020 at 77 shopping centres in and around Junggye and Sanggye neighbourhoods, Nowon district, supporting small businesses affected most by COVID-19.
Since September 2020, SVG has carried out a total of 57 voluntary activities in 278 locations nationwide, serving 296 small business owners.
In other Shincheonji-related news, 3741 congregants of Shincheonji Daegu Church, who had contracted Covid-19 and recovered, donated their blood plasma over three rounds in an effort to help develop treatment for COVID-19. Of this figure, 1561 donors donated their blood plasma more than twice. Mr. Jun-wook Kwon, Deputy Head of the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA), expressed his gratitude to donors in person back in November 2020, saying, "This blood plasma donation by believers of Shincheonji Church, who have now recovered from COVID-19, will make an indelible contribution to overcoming this pandemic and, eventually, eradicate it. We hope that the voluntary and active example set by Shincheonji Church members today will serve as an example to all citizens". Earlier this year, the KDCA confirmed that it is expected to secure blood plasma treatment by the end of 2021; a step that could potentially alleviate the suffering of many Covid sufferers in Korea and beyond.
Shincheonji Volunteer Group will continue to put love for its neighbours into practice through various cultural and volunteer activities, having partnered with 72 national and international volunteer agencies to serve marginalised communities in Korea, improve road networks, implement environmental clean-up campaigns, cook and deliver homemade lunches and provide beauty services and mural painting.
