Abstract

Korean church have achieved remarkable growth rate through the work of the holy spirit, which is the devotional works of christian and the passion toward the gospel. Based on those sign of the holy spirit, christian have worked with the most appropriate way of ministry, concern and care on the social issue, which is the conflict of generation, financial issue, human alienation. On the other hand, the Korean church of today is not fulfilling people's need on politics, society, economics, culture, education and all the social issue. Moreover, some of the christian community is the crux of the matter in these problems, which leaves negative evaluation on christian community. Not only that, recent Korean church, have only focused on the growth of their size, which have massively increased the number of church, and christian population. However, excessive focus on missionary work, and growth of church have eventually, led the church fail on their duty, which is social works. This paper will propose an effective way of activation plan on social work of a regional church for the restoration of modern church, which have worked with the grace and love of GOD. In advance of gathering ideas of an activation plan, theoretical study should be the broad base. For that reason, survey was conducted on christian population around Anyang, Gunpo, Uiwang Gyeonggi-do which was about 572 people, asking their thoughts and perceptions toward current social works from the church. This survey will give a brief idea of an actual condition. Based on this survey, this paper will make a proposal, which is the steps of propulsion and the activation plan. Unfortunately, the proposal has it's own limits on making an actual and specific plan to all regional church, because of their different characteristics, local environment and all different parts of religious body.
