What should we do in this situation where we live in COVID era? Missionary Soo-Yong Kim, who is working at CCC, delivered to us the contents of online missionary activities in the meaning of doing what we can, rather than spending our precious time just complaining about the corona virus and the pandemic.
He spoke of cases where he took on 'short-term online mission', which is still unfamiliar to us. The important thing we learned is to think of it as a 'original short-term mission' even if it's online. Although not physically going to the mission field, preparing a prayer letter and praying for mission was more challenging for us.
According to the case of the Philippines, a total of 38 Filipino students were contacted, and as a result, 10 people were connected to the local CCC and were able to receive continuous training.
We feel God is still at work in the era of COVID. In a situation where things we always thought we could do were never done, we came to realize that not just waiting in discouragement, but actively challenging and trying for the gospel is to continue fulfilling our mission.
We would like to thank the missionary who gave me a new challenge through valuable lecture. We hope that more valuable things will continue to occur online/offline in the future :)
