This meeting was arranged to discuss the Namyangju Christian Council's New Year plans for 2026 and to share various opinions, including difficulties they are facing. It was attended by Cho Seongdae, Chair of the Namyangju City Council, Vice Chair Lee Jeongae, Autonomy and Administration Committee Chair Han Geunsu, Welfare and Environment Committee Chair Lee Kyungsuk, Namyangju Christian Council President Nam Sangjin, and other executives.

At the meeting, executives of the Namyangju Christian Council proposed regularizing meetings between the Namyangju City Council and the Namyangju Christian Council, reviewing the holding of meetings hosted by the local council of churches inviting local constituency council members, and expanding the year-end Christmas tree budget to explore ways to link it with the tourism industry.

Chair Cho stated, "Surprisingly, there are many pastors who do not know much about the role and function of the council," adding, "If you work together with the local constituency council members elected by citizens as their representatives to seek ways to improve the various difficulties you experience while running churches, you will be able to achieve more positive results."

He continued, "The Namyangju City Council will continue to communicate with valuable local partners such as the Christian Council so that voices from the field can be reflected in policies and budgets, and we will carefully review the valuable opinions you have given today together with the council members and the relevant departments of the executive branch."
