**Purposes:** &#x27;the advancement of religion&#x27;

**What the charity does:** Our charity is a community church that supports Korean people living in Edinburgh, as well as anyone interested in worshipping in the Korean language. We provide regular Sunday services in Korean, followed by Bible studies, book studies, and fellowship meetings.  We also support young Korean Christians through worship gatherings and retreats. Each year, we organise events to help people connect with one another, especially international students who are new to Edinburgh. These activities help them settle into life here and explore the Christian faith.  In addition to our Sunday gatherings, we hold regular prayer meetings on either Friday evenings or Saturday mornings, depending on the week. We also meet weekly for Bible study.  In the autumn, we hold an annual retreat to give people space to reflect on life and deepen their relationship with God. Additionally, we host cultural events on Korean traditional holidays to share Korean culture with the wider community.
