Thanks to God’s leading, I am blessed to be a Fuller
Alumna.
In
July this year I was ordained. I am happy to have been invited by many
ministries to speak, and by various pastors to deliver sermons and Holy
Communion. In addition I’ve performed baptisms for the mission ministry,
women’s ministry, and youth ministry at my church. I have also been invited by
the two Korean Seminaries in New York to teach.
At
present, I am enjoying every minute of my sabbatical year. I have hardly any
time to spare. Currently I am working on picture Bible books that will involve
both the Old and New Testaments. Even though they are children’s books, I am
inserting Greek and Hebrew. Since I can audit two classes a year for free as a
Fuller alumna, I am planning to take the Greek and Hebrew classes once more to
get a deeper knowledge of these languages. I am inspired by my Fuller classes
to continue along my path of lifelong learning.
My
calling for the next 10-15 years is to serve the “Golden English Ministry” at
the Community Church of Seattle. I will serve middle-aged Christians, in their
forties and fifties, who may have retired from their jobs but have not retired
from our God’s ministry. My long-term goal is to participate actively in
expanding God’s Kingdom until I see Jesus face to face. I will continue serving
the women’s ministry and youth ministry during my sabbatical because this is my
calling and my heart’s pleasure.
I
am grateful to God for His hearing my determined decision to serve Him. Before
I entered Fuller Seminary, I did not know that pastors had to study this
much. However, it was worth it. I
want to thank all the professors and staff members from the bottom of my heart
for your excellent work, strong commitment, and spiritual depth. I miss you
all!
