Koreans and Sudan

Perhaps you’ve heard of the Koreans who were recently released by the Taliban in Afghanistan? The Taliban kidnapped 23 Koreans, killed two, released two women who were sick, and now, 43 days after their capture, released the remaining 19. These Koreans were Christians, obeying the Great Commission and delivering aid to the Afghans.

During this same time period, David Kaya hosted a team of Koreans in Southern Sudan as well. We are soooo multicultural!

Via David ...
The Koreans did Evangelism in the first Baptist church in Wudu. 117 came to the Lord as the report they gave to the pastor for the follow up. They also showed the Passion of Christ in the Market of Wudu, They prayed for the nation of the Sudan and even fasted for a day for peace and stability of the nation.

On their last day of the mission the went to Pamoju church and performed a Karate which demonstrates the warfare of Christian and the Dark world.

Lastly they ended the work by showing the Passion of Christ which brought 47 people to the Lord. One thing which attracted over 3,500 people was the football [soccer] which they played after they have preached to the people, Many people praised them for the social attitude the Koreans have to Sudan!

They got a good praise from the people. they feed the school childern.

These are some of the things they gave to the church:

  1. They gave offering to First Baptist Church Worth 900$
  2. They also gavew second clothes to the churches of the Baptist as all of them were Baptist.

Kevin Smith of Strategic World Impact's interview with Active Christian Media.

My wife jokes that I categorize people into those who "get it" and those who don't.

Kevin gets it. Big time. He describes Sudan extensively in this interview.
