Jesus Village Church, Chuncheon, South Korea

Jesus Village Church, Chuncheon, South Korea

​Jesus Village Church is an Anabaptist congregation based on New Testament principles.

It uses a cell church model, follows the leading of the Holy Spirit in worship and encourages all members to be engaged in ministry according to their gifts. Plural leadership and service in society are important aspects of community life at Jesus Village Church. Leaders in the church include Daniel Ahn, Sung-Do Cha, Sang-Uk Nham, Il-Hwan Kim and Tae-Min Kim.

Jesus Village Church officially began on the first Sunday of 1996. The vision for the formation of this fellowship of believers was preceded by three years of intense study on the nature of the church by Christian professionals who longed to rediscover the power and spirit of the New Testament Church. They felt strongly drawn to the Anabaptist Church tradition as the model closest to what they desired. Jesus Village Church is an associate member of Mennonite World Conference. Since 1996, North American workers have ministered together with Jesus Village Church and have taught English at the church’s school.
