On September 13, the “Wittenberg Forum” was opened at Wittenberg University in Germany (photo above). The forum was organized by the 2017 Holy Spirit Rally on the Quincentennial of the Reformation (president: Rev. So Gang-seok) and the World Holy Spirit Central Council (president: Rev. Bae Jin-gi). Approximately 40 persons participated, including well-known Luther scholar Dr. Martin Treu and Rev. So Gang-seok (Sae Eden Church).

The “2016 Europe Holy City Conference” took place from September 13 to 16 at Prague Korean Church (Rev. Park Sang-uk) in Prague, the Czech Republic (photo below). This conference was jointly organized by the World Holy City Movement Headquarters (secretary general: Rev. Kim In-jung) and the Europe Holy City Movement Headquarters (president: Rev. Kim Hyeon-bae). Its 70 some participants, coming from 15 countries, resolved to carry out the Holy City Movement starting with the Korean churches in Europe, and moving on to a spiritual revival throughout Europe.
