2016 UBF WMR & MSC Report by Sh. Caleb Kim of Korea
A Holy Nation and A Holy People
1.WMR:
On June 5, 2016, the UBF World Mission Report was held at Jangchung gymnasium in Seoul Korea. There were 540 missionaries and native shepherds from 60 nations and approximately 4,500 UBF brothers & sisters from local chapters throughout Korea who participated in the meeting. The meeting began with powerful sing along as 45 international representatives were each applauded while entering wearing the clothing of their national customs and culture.
The main message, entitled “A Holy Nation" on EX19:5-6 was given by Pastor Abraham Kim, UBF General Director. Through his message, he stressed the Hope and Will of God for us is that we become a Holy Nation People. Therefore, we UBF brothers and sisters must continue to hold on to the Hope and Will of God by living before God as A Holy Nation People in this perverse generation.
Five native shepherds presented their graceful mission reports & life testimonies: Steven Sebbale (Uganda), Augustine Zhdannov (Ukraine), Gustavo Prato (Venezuela), Alison Haga (Taiwan), and Bob Henkins (USA).
Through the WMR, all UBF brothers, sisters and missionaries were greatly moved and earnestly renewed their eager desire for World Mission by seeing and hearing the mighty redemptive work of the living God through UBF missionaries and shepherds throughout the world.
The UBF 500 member chorus performed a majestic and solemn rendition of “Gloria" and “Angel’s Chorus”. The Fan Dance and Taekwondo performance broke the whole crowd up with applause and laughter.
2. Missionary & Shepherd Conference:
Upon completion of the WMR our missionaries, native shepherds, and Korea UBF staff members moved to MS conference place at the La Vie D'or Hotel. Over three nights and four days, we had intensive and wholehearted Bible study on all the chapters of Deuteronomy with the theme "A Holy Nation and A Holy People". Through this, all the attendees deeply learned about how we can bear God's great blessings upon the UBF ministry and ourselves and how we can be in succession and development of these blessings. We render all the glory, thanks and praise to the Lord God Almighty for greatly blessing us all through 2016 WMR and MSC. We thank God for all His servants throughout the world who earnestly prayed for the WMR and MSC.
