14th Lord's Day in Ordinary Time (15 days left)

Warm, rainy greetings from Korea! We worshiped in a small church south of the Han River in Seoul (그루터기교회, Tree Stump Presbyterian Church, Dr. Na's favorite church in Korea), and the team members had an enjoyable time in fellowship with its college students till late night. As is typical in Korea, most of the Lord's Day was spent in worship and in fellowship with church people. Tomorrow we're off to spend four days with a small Presbyterian church in rural Kyung-Sang province (고평교회 Go-Pyung Presbyterian Church). We'll be helping with their farming and also teaching English to the children. Here are a few photos from last week:

Prof. Han (missiology) and the North Korean Ministry team from Youngnak Presbyterian Church (please pray for North Korea)

Please keep North Korea and the homeless in your prayers. We'll tell you about them when we see you later this month. In the mean time, happy Independence Day tomorrow, which is just another summer day in Korea.
