Caleb Mission Newsletter 💌 The Fourth Week of April

Hallelujah! I pray that the God of peace will be with you all. Thanks to your precious prayers, I have safely returned to Korea.

This journey was challenging, but by God’s grace, I could spend a meaningful month and a half sharing the vision of North Korean missions through activities at the U.S. Congress, the United Nations, and various churches that warmly welcomed me. Although I struggled with symptoms of a cold and pneumonia during the trip, I persevered because of your prayers. I am truly grateful.

Above all, I want to share the most joyful news. Our new North Korean rescue mission, launched in honor of Easter, bore incredible fruit. On Easter Sunday, four North Korean escapees safely crossed the Mekong River and reached a land of freedom! It is an overwhelming grace to be part of this life-saving ministry—bringing the Gospel to our North Korean brothers and sisters and witnessing them meet Jesus. This was all possible because of your faithful prayers and partnership.

Many churches in the U.S. learned about Caleb Mission through the documentary Beyond Utopia, and some have already expressed their heartfelt desire to join in the work of North Korean missions. The strength to continue rescuing and evangelizing North Korean escapees has come—and will continue to come—through God’s grace and your faithful intercession.

From now until August, I plan to focus on domestic ministry in Korea. If any churches or organizations reading this message would be willing to invite me, I would be honored to come and share about Caleb Mission and North Korean ministry. I sincerely invite you to join us in saving lives and proclaiming the Gospel to even one more soul.

Since returning to Korea, I have felt spring in full bloom. I am also deeply thankful that the North Korean community center has been completed. Here, North Korean escapees live and worship together as one body in Christ. In the nearby hills, we’ve built a chicken coop with over 100 chickens and are planting various fruit trees, such as apple and persimmon trees. You are always welcome to visit—we would love to fellowship with you and share what God is doing.

This is more than just a community center. It is a true community where we communicate deeply with North Korean brothers and sisters and share the vision and direction of North Korean missions. Your continued prayers are especially needed to keep the Southeast Asia Center active and strong.

Our finances are at a critical low after our most recent rescue mission. The cost of rescuing North Korean escapees has risen more than tenfold in recent years, making it increasingly difficult to continue this work. However, with all my heart, I believe that as we unite in prayer and move forward, God will continue to lead and work through us.

The newly completed Southeast Asia center will now be used for seminars and training for North Korean escapees. I sincerely ask for your continued prayers and partnership in this precious ministry. Thank you so much.❤️Please support the North Korean defectors 🙏🏻
