Dear Friend,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The earth will be filled with … the glory of the Lord (Hab. 2:14)

On September 21, Somali militants al-Shabab
attacked civilians trapped inside the Westgate shopping mall in Nairobi, Kenya. The tragic event ended with 72 deaths and over 200 people reported to be
wounded in a mass shooting. One of our EAPTC Nairobi church members was also
injured while working on duty at a department store in the mall. We’re grateful
for many of you who expressed genuine concern and interceded with us while
hostages were held by gunmen. Please continue to pray for Kenya as she tries to
recover as a nation from this painful memory.
Today, the world mission has unprecedentedly
become a task of every national churches and believers on earth. Missionaries
are being sent out literally from every nation to every nation! Mission
strategists have previously noticed that Africa, along with East Asia, would
emerge as the key fulcrum for world missions in the 21st century. For this
reason, EAPTC has been faithfully training and commissioning preachers and
missionaries in Kenya and eight other African nations for the past 17 years. At
this moment, over 1,200 graduates of EAPTC’s training centers continue to touch
lives and communities with Christ’s love and change them for eternity. And the
glory of the Lord is being known in Africa!

Actually, C-group has been in my heart for almost a
decade indeed ... alongside Africa. It’s because I'm seeing C-group to be a hub
for reaching Asia, as Kenya was a hub for Africa. However, I
also sense that the spark to bring this movement to full flame
in C-group lies rather with Korea. I'm beginning to see why the Lord
has brought us again to Korea, even for a short while, after serving abroad for
almost 25 years. As the Lord used Kenyans to efficiently take the message
to one neighboring country after another in Africa, Koreans should be able to
do the same to other neighboring countries of a similar
cultural zone including the C-group.
If the Lord gives us Africa, C-group and America, we've got
this world pretty much covered with the flame, I perceive. The Lord’s vision keeps
marching on. It takes more intercessors and finances to extend missions work to
various parts of the world. Please let this vision tree grow deeper and wider
to cover the beloved continent of Africa and the rest of our world by continuously
grooming it with your prayers and givings.
Running together with you for this call,
Paul Lee (& Eunice Jaeun)
Director, EAPTC
