Going Beyond Our Borders

In December the WOLBI Jeju students had the opportunity to travel to Vietnam and Thailand. The purpose: to check out different mission organizations and help out with two churches in Thailand. Starting with a layover in Vietnam, the students were able to explore Ho Chi Min for one day to experience their culture and history. Then it was off to Thailand where they visited many different Christian organizations including CEF, New Tribes Missions, a coffee shop ministry to prostitutes and several Bible translation missions. The first half of the trip was spent in Chiang Mai and the later half in Bangkok. All throughout the trip, the students saw the reality of Buddhism as they were able to talk with a Buddhist monk and visited several Buddhist temples. Two of our students wanted to share about their experience in Thailand and the impact it had on their view of people and God. Here are their stories!
