South Korea: Independent Reformed Churches in Korea

The 2007 synod decided to offer limited correspondence to the Independent Reformed Churches in Korea, a small church community with four congregations, five pastors and 677 members.

These churches are characterised by faithful churchgoing and intensive study of the Reformed confessional scriptures. Amidst the wide variety of Presbyterian churches in South Korea, the IRCK occupy its own place, with a purposefully Reformed theology.

Since 1973, the IRCK has had its own publishing house, which has now published one hundred and thirty titles.

The IRCK launched its own Theological Academy in 2010, where students from related church federations also study.

The IRCK is a member of the International Conference of the Reformed Churches.

We have limited correspondence with this church.
