Life of Life Church
Gapyeong-gun, Gyeonggi • Entertainment
The Light of Life Jesus Village was designed for the welfare of retired missionaries. Since these welfare facilities are doomed to depend on external support in general, it is difficult to find any splendor from a general point of view, and common sense is that it is even more difficult to find content that will induce outsiders to visit.
However, the surprising thing about the planning of this village is that it is not a structure that simply seeks help from outsiders or appeals to the approval of the saints, but is actively and dynamically composing its own contents by appropriately collaborating with external resources. It is a good example for all organizations that are highly dependent on donations within their profits in that they consider active self-value increase and social contribution beyond dependence without measures.
The orange red pine pillars of the chapel, which can be said to be the icon of the town, give a calm attitude at once, and the unique circular seating arrangement directs the eyes to the cross in the center rather than the preacher in the pulpit. It is a chapel containing the soul, located in a village with a true consciousness, where you can feel the concerns about not only the visual elements but also the functional essence.
