** As South Korea deals with the current political situation, we continue to pray for our host country. Although ILC appears as the backdrop of gatherings and protests, we are a church and welcome all and do not take any political stand. Please monitor The Messenger and other announcements regarding church parking and access. **

International Lutheran Church is a thriving English-language Christian ministry in the heart of Seoul since 1962, serving both expats and Koreans interested in growing in their relationship with Christ. Join us for Sunday service at 10 AM or watch live stream or recorded!
