We will do everything we can with a responsible attitude until the end of the COVID-19 pandemic."

Shincheonji church reported that it has not held any face-to-face service since February 18th, but they have been praying for the end of COVID-19, the safety of quarantine officials and medical staff, and the recovery of patients since the initial outbreak.
