Korea

Hey Everyone!

Thanks for tuning in. I made it safely and soundly here to Korea, and was warmly welcomed by the family of Christ here!

In case you didn't know, I'm here in South Korea serving the Lord Jesus at a church in a large city called Daejeon (about a few hours south of Seoul, the capital of the nation).

Over here, South Korea is heavily Christianized, just as America is. You can find churches and Christians all over the place! And like America, there is still a large need for just teaching the Bible.

Over here at the church, Calvary Chapel Daejeon, I'm involved in a lot of English speaking ministry. In Korea, many people know English, and many people also want to learn English. So a huge part of ministry, of service, is speaking with them English while we teach them the Bible and provide a means of fellowship in Christ.

I play a part here as one of several interns helping the pastor, doing things that need to get done. I lead in worship a few times a week, and lead an occasional Bible study. More than I realize, however, I suspect the biggest ministry is building friendships with those who come, and then encourage them in their walk with Christ.

Please pray for those Koreans who come to the church, that they may understand what the Bible teaches, and that they may grow in their walk with Him! Also pray for me, that I might have wisdom and humility with which to serve God, so as to be usable by Him!

Already, there's so much more to share, but I don't want the first post to be overwhelming. Look forward to more posts!

God bless,

Jesse
