Description
"The church that meets at Hyo Chong Dong is located on an acre of ground in the heart of Seoul. It began in the living room of missionaries back in 1955 and grew to a little farm church building made from scrap lumber. Friends, mostly in Nashville, Tenn., provided the money for this modern brick structure. The church is now self-supporting." An exterior view of the Hyo Chong Dong Church of Christ. The Hyo Chong Dong Church was planted by American missionaries from Churches of Christ in Seoul, Korea.
