시애틀 형제교회 (Community Church of Seattle)

What 시애틀 형제교회 (Community Church of Seattle) does

Community Church of Seattle (시애틀형제교회) is an independent, non-profit religious organization headquartered in Bothell, Washington, serving the Korean-speaking Christian diaspora in the Greater Seattle metropolitan area. The church operates three physical campuses — a main Bothell campus (3727 240th St SE), an additional Bothell facility (3700 Monte Villa Pkwy), a Bellevue campus, and a downtown Seattle campus — and conducts three Sunday worship services at 8:00 AM, 10:00 AM, and 12:00 PM in both Korean and English. Its ministry portfolio spans across age and language segments, including SonLight Kids Ministry, NEXT (English middle/high school), Coram Deo (Chinese-speaking middle/high school), NeWave (young adults), Mother's School, intercessory prayer, recovery ministry, and small group "순모임" (Sunmoim) programs built around a published bilingual "Living Life" (생명의 삶) devotional curriculum.

The church's underlying technology stack is modest: a WordPress website (hyungjae.org) with embedded YouTube Live streaming, an event calendar distributed via Google Calendar, iCalendar, and Outlook integrations, an online giving platform at hjservice.org, Flickr photo hosting, and a OneStep GPS-based church shuttle tracking link. There is no proprietary software product, no mobile app, no API, and no disclosed AI/ML capabilities. Distribution is hybrid: physical campus-based worship and small groups supplemented by digital channels (HYUNGJAETV YouTube channel, Facebook page CCSHyungjae, and the website).

Revenue is generated entirely through voluntary tithes and offerings from congregation members, with all worship services, programs, and activities provided free of charge. There is no disclosed revenue figure, no investor base, and no parent organization. The church is led by Senior Pastor James Joon Kwon (권준 목사) — a Fuller Theological Seminary M.Div. graduate and former associate of Seoul Onnuri Church and Duranno Publishing — and operates with a staff of approximately 12 employees plus a broader pastoral team of 30+ pastors, missionaries, deacons, deaconesses, and coordinators organized into five "Community" groups. An affiliated Christian private school, UCiC, functions as the church's educational ministry extension.
