Koreans call for ethnic leaders to come together in London

I just received an invitation to the 7th London mission conference organised by Koreans living in the UK. In fact there are lots of Koreans in the UK -- enough to make up some 100 Korean churches.


More than 40 Korean churches and 20 Korean and international missions like WEC, OM, Wycliffe  and YWAM have agreed to cooperate on this conference.

If you find yourself at it, don't worry -- they are going to arrange a simultaneous interpretation into English for as many people as need it. Here is the website, with an English translation too: www.lmc.name

After the two main plenary sessions are addressed by Dr. George Verwer something exciting will happen (not implying that the time with George won't be -- it always is!). There will be a meeting about the next mission conference -- but instead of it staying just Korean the organisers plan to welcome all ethnic church leaderships and mission partners to be part of discussions for the formation of the next mission conference in London.

I find it wonderfully encouraging that Koreans living halfway around the world from their homeland are calling those from other lands to join them in a conference focusing on taking Jesus to those who still don't know him. Is there anything better to draw us together?
