The 2013 KIMNET (Korean Inter-Mission Network) Conference was held from October 9 to 11 in Philadelphia titled "Embracing the Nations as My Family." More than 300 church leaders and missionaries from many continents including Philadelphia Antioch church members participated in this conference to hear eight mission reports, nine ministry reports, several messages and a special mission report on North Korea and to join in prayer sessions. God used M. Juan Seo of Venezuela (who is now in Los Angeles) as a powerful and heart-moving mission reporter and Jose Ahn to present UBF world campus mission, encouraging all churches to participate in world mission. M. Jacob Lee was appointed as a Vice Secretary General and M. David Kim as one of the administrating pastors of KIMNET. M. Isaac and Rebekah from Akron made many friends with other church leaders too. At the end of the day, one of the main speakers called our UBF representatives to stand up in front of all. He praised God who blessed UBF’s world mission work and recommended all churches to benchmark UBF in terms of world mission. After the conference we visited Philadelphia UBF and had a wonderful fellowship with six house churches composed of mostly Ph.D. shepherds.
