A New Friendship

This past weekend in services, I had the pleasure of introducing Ju-Yeong's parents, Pastor Lee & Mrs. Kim (far left in the photo above), to our church family (FYI, in Korean culture, wives do not take the husband's last name). Ju-Yeong (seated next to me) is about 6 months into a year-long internship at the Coastlands. Pastor Lee serves as the president of Foursquare in Korea. Also visiting us was Pastor Lim (center above) who serves as Pastor Lee's right-hand man, the General Supervisor.

They enjoyed themselves thoroughly and thanked me repeatedly for our church's hospitality. What they noticed is the way that our church family gives their time and energy toward serving one another. This pic is of us eating dinner in-between services on Saturday night... lovingly prepared by one of our ICU groups.

They are excited to continue sending interns who will be infected with this passion for servanthood. May we continue to become more and more contagious!
