[Shincheonji culture] Loving each other: Shincheonji love

Shincheonji Suwon Church volunteers share their love through helping and enriching local community.

Repainting the old wall and drawing beautiful artwork on it.

They devote their time to share love with neighbors as what Jesus commanded us to love each other. Shincheonji Suwon Volunteers had been working for various volunteers work: repainting the old exterior wall, environmental clean-up, supporting restoration of flood damage, sharing food and making a campaign to promote the traditional local market. 

The painting is about peace 

In 24th August 2013, Shincheonji volunteers drew wall painting in order to give vivid energy to the local community. The wall was total 38 m where more than ten thousands of cars pass everyday. 

On that day, there were 30 Shincheonji volunteers and 10 local citizens worked together to make this place to more beautiful place. The theme of drawings on the wall was 'wedding banquet' and 'peace.'

Due to the weather and long length of wall, repainting all of them was definitely not a easy work to do, but old wall changed to new and colorful public place with the warm hands of Shinchonji volunteers and Suwon citizens.

Loving each other: Shincheonji volunteer.

 Shincheonji members volunteer at various fields for the development of local community and society. As Bible teaches us the lesson of loving each other, Shincheonji practice our love through using our abilities and talents to help others.This time, Shinchoenji members gathered together to paint the wall around the bus stop. Althought painting a exterior wall isn't easy (I'm sure many of you know it if you had done it before), but it was meaningful time since this painting would make passenger to feel better while walking or waiting for the bus.

First of all, we need to clean the wall so that painting will be painted smoothly and dry nicely. Fortunately, the wall was build long time ago, but its surface was smooth enough for us to draw draft, so we skipped the first step.

Secondly, we draw drawings on the wall (We struggled with the idea of what to draw, but we wanted to draw something sometime that would make passengers to feel comfortable and welcomed).
Thirdly, paint the light background to dark colors.

Her sweet smile made me smile too.

Fourthly, paint the detailed drawing.

This young boy also volunteered together, I can tell that he was really concentrated when he was painting.

Hello, young gentleman.

Shincheonji volunteers are working on their last touches.

Let us show you the 'before' and 'after' pictures. 

BEFORE

AFTER

Can you feel the different? Before painting wasn't that bad, but it was cracked and its white painting became stained and dirty. Isn't it look much more vivid and energetic with the colorful drawings on the wall? We Shincheonji practice the spirits of 'loving each other' regardless the region, nation,religion and race.
