Seoul of Korea

We are here!

I am sitting at a computer in some dorms that we are staying in before we head out to serve in churches of South Korea.

We have met so many wonderful, servants of God. There are 27 people from all over the south here with us. They are all older than Jean Ann and me which astounds us. One couple, the Lowry's, has been married for 60 years. They come here every year. The very long trip is difficult for anyone, but just think about being 80 and traveling to share the gospel of Jesus Christ.

We have had orientation and done a small amount of shopping and some sightseeing.

The thing that sticks out the most is the quantity of churches here.

While we were out yesterday we could see the entire city from Seoul Tower which was built for the Olympics. Looking out you can see so many crosses above the city. They raise them high above their buildings and they are all lit with white or red lights. It gave us such comfort to see God being represented here.

The Koreans love Americans and we have had many encounters already that I will wait to share later along with some pictures.

I do want to say thank you for all your prayers.

Your love is felt as it travels the earth and fills us with peace, for we know you are with us in spirit.

We praise God that there have been no illnesses as of yet, and everyone is in very good spirits.

We are ready to go forth.

May God bless you all and I hope to be able to send you more messages soon.

For Him who we serve,

Wink and Jean Ann
