The Church of God has various versatile training facilities. The Jeonyisan Training Institute is the first institute to be established, where gatherings for pastoral staff and education for church members are actively carried out. The Okcheon Go&Come Training Institute is equipped with a large-scale facility that can accommodate more than 10,000 people. The Elohim Training Institute has various educational facilities on site which are embraced by the beautiful natural scenery of Korea as its backdrop. There is no wonder why overseas visiting groups never miss a chance to visit this institute. The Dongbaek Training Institute, which is adjacent to the Headquarters, is useful for small-scale educational gatherings for the members. The WMC Training Institute in Seogwipo, which is the newest training institute among all, is expected to be used as an educational place to spread the gospel of the new covenant to people visiting Jeju from all around the world.
