What is your ministry?

I coordinate the Policy Direction of the Korean Mission Movement, coordinate more than 180 missionary organisations and 16 denominations in Korea, help organise the 4th Lausanne Congress in Korea, organise the national mission platform in Asian countries, and work with the Third World mission leaders for the Third World Mission Movement.

When did you trust Christ?

When I was a teenager, I met the Lord personally. Then, the Lord called me to follow Him. I accepted Jesus as the Savior of my life and decided to follow the Lord.

What have been the defining moments of your Christian walk?

Those of faith around me gave me spiritual inspiration. The Holy Spirit has helped me follow the Lord.

What do you hope to gain from participating?

I want to understand the needs and situations of the European Church, understand Korean missionaries' ministry and the situation in Europe, discuss the cooperation between European and Korean missionaries in Europe, and discuss sending more Korean missionaries to Europe.

What is your leadership role or what were your past leadership roles?

As the general secretary of KWMA (Korean World Missions Association), I serve the Korean missionary movement. I also serve the Asian Mission Movement as the Chair of the Asia Missions Association (AMA).

Why should someone invest in your ministry?

Dr. Paul Noh offered me to attend ELF. I decided to participate to understand the situation of the European church and Korean missionaries in Europe. I want to hear the opinions of the European church on the development of the Asian Third World mission movements.
