Manna Church (senior pastor Kim Byeong-sam) will hold the "2025 I will believe you, I will push you concert–Because We Believe" at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 27, at the Zion Sanctuary in Manna Church in Bundang-gu, Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province. Held to commemorate Manna Church's founding anniversary Sunday, all revenue from this performance will be used for a youth start-up support fund.
Manna Church said, "This concert is not a simple music concert but a place to reaffirm the church's identity," adding, "Under the message that 'a true church is a fruit-bearing church,' the church will be prepared as a worshipful stage where the church scatters into the world to practice sharing and servanthood."
Top domestic and international artists will take the stage together for this meaningful program. Tenor Yoon Jeong-su, bass Jeon Tae-hyun, soprano Yang Gwi-bi, musical actor Jeong Jae-eun, gugak musician Park Soo-young, M.C.U (Manna Classic United) Orchestra & M Music Band will deliver a beautiful harmony. The conductor is Manna Church music department associate pastor Shin Myeong-cheol. Voice actor Lee Min-ha (stage name "Minari") will host the performance, promising an even richer concert.
Conductor Shin Myeong-cheol said, "A stage that offers emotion and resonance is prepared through a repertoire spanning classical, musical, and gugak and a collaboration between orchestra and band," and added, "I am especially grateful because it has the meaning of practicing sharing and love through music."
This concert also draws attention as a step that contains the values of cultural ministry with a purposeful focus on practical support for youth, faith solidarity and social responsibility practice of the church community, and spreading a warm image of the church to local residents.
Senior pastor Kim Byeong-sam said, "I sincerely thank the performers and staff who gathered their hearts and hands for the stage," and added, "This performance was prepared to support young people who continue moving toward their dreams despite living in an era where it is easy to give up. Believing in someone means sharing that person's potential. The 'I will believe you, I will push you concert' started from that very belief. When the world seems to encourage giving up, a single phrase like 'I believe in you' and a caring look will be the greatest encouragement to young people. We hope our belief becomes courage for the dreaming youth, and that young people can use our belief as a stepping stone to stand up."
Donations collected through the performance will be used to support youth start-ups through World Human Bridge. Support teams will be selected through Manna Church's MCLC (Manna Christian Leadership Center) youth start-up project "I will believe you, I will push you," and start-up support funds and mentoring will be provided to help young people successfully start businesses. Offerings and sponsorships can be made on the day of the performance through on-site offerings, QR code donations, or designated account transfers.
