a. LIFE Center
This project was begun in 2006 in partnership with several churches (GKY Sunter, GBI), another ministry (Gerhati), a business (SOHO Group), and others.
The concept of the Life Center project is to adopt the community with focus on physical, holistic ministries. It provides counseling for spiritual and educational needs, without having a set time for terminating the outreach.
The project provides sewing machines so that unemployed housewives can produce school uniforms for the Mission to the Nation Kindergarten.
