Often, when traveling over to Asia, I land in Alaska for a brief stop. The view from the sky is amazing -and a reminder of God's beautiful creativity!

(Below) Today's ministry stop begins in Seoul, Korea. From the airport, I take an almost 2 hour taxi ride south, to the town of "Songtan."

I arrive just in time for chapel at "Word of Life Korea" -a Korean ministry training school, where this week's theme is the "Christian Family." Today's message is for singles: "Recognizing My Future Marriage Partner."

Here, Korean Christian young people have dedicated themselves to serving Christ and learning English. They learn from others, who have volunteered to teach English at the school during a period of about two months. You can find out more below, in a short video.

There are traffic jams along the way, and my driver introduces me to speeds I normally see only on the runway -not the highway. Thank you for praying!

On Saturday night, I travel to Taiwan to be in place for preaching on Sunday in Taipei -at Grace Baptist Church. This Taiwanese church has two of their services in English, for their large international community.

Today, I am preaching from 1 John. As you can see, balloons are helping to illustrate an important concept about our relationship with God.

During each service, several people respond to Christ! Thank you for your prayer support. I really do appreciate your encouragement and being involved!

Have you ever thought about coming to Korea? There is an opportunity for you to be involved! Through English School and English Camp God is reaching many Korean youth for Christ.
