Visitors ranged in age and gender, from young people in their 20s to elderly people in their 60s and 70s. According to the guidance, they filled the seats in an orderly manner, starting with the front row.

Jeong-hwa Lee (pseudonym, 55, female) who attended in person said, “Even though the lecture lasted for over an hour, the story of the Bible was so interesting that you wouldn’t even notice time passing. In fact, it would have been nice if it had been longer.”

Sujeong Lee (pseudonym, 45, female, Yeosu), who came with her younger sister, said, “I've been going to church for five years, but this is the first time I've heard about the Book of Revelation.”

Ga-young Choi (female, 25) said, “It was amazing to see so many pastors from countries like India and Uganda listen to the Word and change their church signboard to Shincheonji.”

Meanwhile, an official from Shincheonji Church of Jesus said that starting with 103,764 graduates in 2019, the second graduation ceremony was held in 2022 with 106,686 graduates amid the COVID-19 pandemic, and that another 100,000 graduation ceremony will be held this year.
