Middle East

Jonghyun & Hyunjoo

they went to Palestine because they wanted to help prepare the way for the Lord. the idea was, as stated in Rom 10:19, that Israelites would see EVIDENCE of abundant presence of the Holy Spirit among the Palestinian Christians and that makes the Israelites envy them to cause mass of the Israelites to come to the Lord. Soon, they found out that Palestinians’ relationship with Israel was more complicated than the situation depicted in the Old Testament. In the Old Testament, Palestine was a mighty ‘Goliath’ and Israel was a young ‘David.’ But now the situation is reversed. Israel has become a Goliath, and Palestine has been a young David.

A few years after the life and ministry in Jerusalem, they decided to move to Palestine. they always believed that being a missionary meant to live with the people they serve and share their hardships. JH got invited to serve at a church in Palestine as a lead pastor. they believe that the victory in the missionary endeavor will come from God and His churches in Palestine. they are so grateful that they are a part of God’s grand scheme in Palestine.
