The Lord is waiting to go on a journey with you
Pastor Jung Myung Seok has made the month of May a month to visit Wolmyungdong. He said that regardless of who you are, you should visit Wolmyungdong at least once in May. May is the most beautiful month of the year to visit.
Wolmyungdong is a place God designed. During the process of its construction, the Holy Son protected the workers while Pastor Jung toiled with his sweat and tears to actualize the Holy Spirit’s inspiration.
God gave us Wolmyungdong as a gift. It is a great inheritance, which Pastor Jung and the Lord developed for future generations. It is the pride of Wolmyungdong Church and a spiritual home for all of us. Pastor Jung developed Wolmyungdong while laughing and crying. He would say, “In life, you have to pave the road.” He said this while making the trails along the rides of the mountains.
Wolmyungdong is a spiritual safe haven
When you grow older and become more independent from your parents, most people drift away from their hometown. At most, you come back maybe once or twice a year and live the rest of your time forgetting about it under the pretext of being busy. We forget many things as we live in increasingly competitive times.
We might live forgetting about our parents who gave birth to us or about our spiritual family who brought us to God. We may even forget about Jesus who died on the cross for us. It’s scary when you forget because you don’t even know you’ve forgotten.
“If you walk on the path of life and remember the Lord, then it will only be beneficial.” ~ Pastor Jung Myung Seok
Have you and your children drifted apart because of business? Has the love between you and your spouse grown cold? If your whole family holds each other’s hands and walks on the path of life with the Lord, then you will be able to share a close bond of love with one another.
Everyone, the Lord is waiting to go on a journey with you. I hope that every single one of you will visit Wolmyungdong during the month of May. Grab this chance to rekindle the fire of your first love that you have lost.

Rock Treasures in Wolmyeongdong
People say that the most expensive gemstone in the world is a diamond. But if you think about it, a diamond is simply a rock.
God, our Creator, did not create diamonds to be the only type of rock treasures in the world. He also created hundreds of different kinds of rocks treasures. Geologists say that it takes hundreds of thousands of years for a rock to form in soil. If you look at the rocks that were made while the earth was forming, it took many billions of years for them to form. They are even stronger that diamond.
When you look at it like this, all rocks are a type of gemstone. Marbles are gemstones, and so are rocks that are made of obsidian and amber. Rocks that have images and collectible rocks in particular are also a kind of rock treasure. Some of these rocks can cost up to a few hundred million dollars. Since the cost of rocks can rival or even surpass the value of gold in certain cases, rocks are treasures just like gold.
The Rock Museum in Wolmyeongdong
Without contaminating the environment, we have made the Wolmyeongdong Natural Temple with the design and support of the Trinity. Wolmyeongdong is now a temple that belongs to God. Within the Natural Temple is a Rock Museum where we have stacked seven different rock treasures in a line. The course is about 500 m long.
It is majestic, beautiful, and wondrous. Wolmyeongdong is indeed a palace dedicated to God. You can find rock treasures everywhere. Some are still hidden in the ground.
So that we can give glory and thanksgiving to God, our Creator who created these rock treasures, to the Holy Spirit, and to the Holy Son of the Trinity, we are holding annual Rock Festivals in the Natural Temple. I hope that you can enjoy these world renowned rock attractions and learn about their stories.
