500kg of Rice Delivered Ahead of Lunar New Year... Sangok Methodist Church Practicing Neighborly Love

As the Lunar New Year approaches, acts of sharing that convey warmth to the community continue. The Sangok 1-dong Administrative Welfare Center announced on the 29th that it received a donation of 500kg of white rice for the '2026 Lunar New Year Neighborly Love Sharing' from Sangok Methodist Church located in Sangok 1-dong.

The donated rice consists of 50 bags of 10kg each, which will be distributed to vulnerable groups in the area, including elderly individuals living alone and people with disabilities, as well as low-income families. This is expected to provide practical help to neighbors who face increased living burdens ahead of the holiday.

Sangok Methodist Church has consistently engaged in community sharing activities. In addition to operating a free meal service called 'Red Rice Truck' for those at risk of food insecurity, it has practiced solidarity with the community through various forms of service, including protection and care activities for vulnerable groups.

Pastor Jo Jae-jin stated, "I hope that this small gesture shared for the Lunar New Year will bring comfort and hope to those in need," and added, "We will continue our neighborly love sharing in partnership with the community."

Jeon Mi-hee, the head of Sangok 1-dong, expressed gratitude, saying, "I appreciate the warm heart of Sangok Methodist Church, which always thinks of its neighbors first," and stated, "The donated rice will be carefully delivered to those who truly need help."
