From Korea with love – to Wales

Korean Christians are preparing to descend on Wales this summer – with Welsh churches urged to prepare for a week-long Korean Prayer Mission and pray for a fresh revival.

Organised by the Director of the Europe Prayer Mission, Namjin Kim, the mission is due to take place on 3–10 July. Kim, who recently returned to the UK after a three-week visit to South Korea, had been invited by 11 Korean churches to share with them the spiritual state of Wales and to pray together for the country.

He said: ‘The spiritual reality of the Welsh Church today saddens us. Throughout Wales, many of the churches have been turned into mosques, bars, accommodations, restaurants, etc. and it is difficult to find the younger generation in the remaining churches.’
