About Sydney Onnuri Church
I haven’t managed to dig up much about the church, as in building here. There are other congregations in the Sydney and suburbs. It’s prime Ministry is to Korean Christians. Another movement, Heartbeat has joined Onnuri as an independent entity to provide a Ministry to Australian, English speaking Koreans. https://heartbeat.church
