MISSIONS THROUGH UNITY

Support Rocky Braat and his family as they run an incarnational ministry among HIV/AIDS children in India. Specifically, Rocky and his family are looking to raise at least $2,000 in monthly recurring donations to help with their growing family.

This goes to our general fund to help cover our operating costs. We run as a non-profit, so our ability to support missions depends on donations we receive.

God has opened many doors for me and my wife to be in Seoul and serve in ministry. I have been a full time footstool staff member since the beginning of June and YiRang joined in mid November. We feel called to this city for the next couple of years to serve its people and the ones that are calling this place a temporary home.

I came to Korea last January thinking that God was calling me to serve and experience Korea for only a year. Throughout 2018, I had been praying about my future steps and what I would do once I was back in the US. I came to realize that God had been answering my prayers by instead, slowly opening up my heart to the possibility of staying in Korea longer.

As soon as I had heard about what the "footstool" in Footstool Missions Center stood for, I got the chills because it was exactly what I considered to be my life's statement and purpose. For as long as I can remember, I had always hoped to live a life as the help and support, the "footstool", others needed.  

God has called me to serve Him in Korea for 2 more years through Footstool Missions Center, being a part of their vision and mission to be a base camp for missions through UNITY.

Please join and unite with me as part of my team to carry out this calling and mission! Thank you and many love and blessings! :)

In 2013, God led my husband, Joe, away from a 13 year career he had been working to build, and called him into pastoral ministry. He currently serves as an associate pastor at Jubilee Church. This was obviously a life-altering change for our entire family in so many ways, and we have really learned to trust in the Lord in every area of our lives. In 2017, the Lord allowed me an opportunity to serve, not necessarily only as a pastor's wife, but also through my own unique gifts by allowing me to serve at Footstool Missions Center. We are thankful to the Lord everyday for how He provides every need for our family, which also includes our three children; Joanna (8), Juel (3), and Juno (2).

Would you please consider partnering with our family as we live out our lives in complete service to our Lord through the love of our neighbors? Please consider supporting us through your prayers, your friendship, and if God has placed it on your heart, through financial means as well.

Thank you and God bless you!

Alana and I are excited to be serving in Korea again as God has made it a very personal invitation by opening doors for our us to serve where our passions thrive. We trust the Lord's calling on our lives and leading for us to move overseas to serve the people of Asia and we are confident of the deep and personal ministry He will do in and through the Smith's! We believe that serving with Footstool's dynamic team and unique mission will be an unforgettable time of our lives for the Kingdom.

God's heart is for the fatherless and orphan children are closest to His heart.  The orphans in Korea face harsh stigma in a society that places high esteem on family ties, prestige and education. In particular, once high school graduates age out of the system, they have to leave the orphanage and end up encountering further hardships trying to make it on their own.

I was once an orphan child at Sung No Won Orphanage, then, later adopted to the USA.  God set me in a family. He showed me through my adoptive parents what it feels like to be loved, to be part of a family and to experience what a home feels like. I want to show the same to these children.. for them to know and feel the same comforts and stability and security of having a home and family.  

The purpose of this home will be to offer a  refuge, a safe, open and free space for Korean orphans to come be themselves and experience a home environment and family.  The home will be a warm, nurturing environment for them to them to come over regularly for dinners and spend time hanging out together cooking, playing board games, making art, watching TV/movies, celebrating birthdays and holidays...

God rescued me, set me in a family, healed and delivered me from the orphan spirit.  He brought me back to Korea in 2007, to the same orphanage where I lived as a child so to that I can now minister this same message of hope to the children there. Being a consistent person in the children's lives for over 10 years and establishing deep bonds of trust with them has shown them God's covenant, unfailing,  HESED LOVE.  That even though they have been forsaken by their mother and father, even despite society discriminating harshly against them... their Heavenly Father knows them so intimately and wants them to know they are never alone. Even if they don't have the family or status or riches here on earth.. this HESED HOME will be a small glimpse of the extravagant mansion waiting for them in their heavenly home.

Our Mission:
To start a church planting movement in Seoul aimed at seeing lives redeemed and transformed by the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and conformed to his glory.

Our Vision:
We want to see five gospel-centered churches planted over the next ten years, by making disciple-making disciples who are equipped to fill the earth with the glory of Christ as we build his kingdom in Seoul and beyond.

Our Beliefs:
As a Reformed English church, we hold to the historic creeds and confessions of the church such as the Apostles’ Creed, Nicene Creed, etc. Our theological beliefs are most fully expressed in the Westminster Confession of Faith. We proclaim the same Gospel that has been announced for 2000 years, contending for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints.

Crossway Mission Church is an international English speaking church based in Seoul, South Korea. We are an independent church plant that began in 2016. Our Mission is to pursue God and the passions of His heart as we cherish the cross and finish the mission. Our vision is to see communities transformed and lives restored through discipleship that delights in, declares, and demonstrates the gospel of Jesus Christ - beginning with Korea, to the ends of the earth.

It's our favorite time of year again at Footstool Missions Center as we gear up for our 4th annual Member Care Retreat! This year's fundraising goal is $15,000. Thanks to a generous donor, donations of $100 or less will be MATCHED (for the first $5000)! Whether you can donate $5 or $100, every bit makes a difference to our missionary friends serving in the 10/40 window!

This is why your donation matters:
95% of the unreached people in the world live in the 10/40 window but only 4% of missionaries serve in this window. Missionaries serving in this area work tirelessly but can be burnt out from the scope of the work, are often under-resourced and feel forgotten and undervalued.

To address this need, Footstool is hosting our third annual member care retreat for missionaries serving in the 10/40 window. This is a free retreat and will be held from January 29- February 1 here in Korea. We will be taking the missionaries and their families to a retreat site outside of Seoul and we will have plenary sessions, full childcare, prayer sessions, professional counseling, massage therapy, hair stylists, manicures and more to serve and minister to those serving overseas.

Please join us in supporting those on the front lines of missions work to receive some rest, relaxation, and restoration!

HOPE Be Restored is working to end human trafficking and modern-day slavery in South Korea and in other parts of the world.

We educate, equip, and mobilize churches to get involved in our communities to combat slavery happening in our streets. Through prayer, worship, outreaches, and discipleship, we believe every church can play a role in being light in the darkness.

We provide aftercare for victims of sex trafficking in South Korea which includes: counseling, legal help, education, job training, job placement, friendship building, and discipleship.

We help young children, women, and foreigners in Korea to experience freedom, hope, and a new future.

Please join us in our efforts to bring slavery to end in our lifetime.

Located in Chiang Mai, Thailand, the Agape Home for babies with HIV/AIDS opened in May 1996 as a response to the plight of children impacted by the spread of HIV/AIDS across Thailand.

Many of the children who come to the Agape Home to live are, or are at risk of being, HIV positive. Many of them have already lost their parents to AIDS, and there are no other options for their care.

Agape Home provides a loving family for 100+ children aged 0-21 yrs.

Our services include:
- Nikki's Place - Agape Home:  orphanage for Thai children with HIV/AIDS.
- Project Lek:  at-home assistance for HIV+ children living in impoverished conditions.
- Jarawee Village: family homes for our older children living with HIV/AIDS.

All Nations Fellowship (ANF) is a multilingual, multisite, Gospel-centered Christian church dedicated to serving the Greater Nagoya area for the blessing of Japan and all nations.

Our Vision

We long to see a movement of God's Spirit that transforms Nagoya, Japan, and all nations for the glory of Christ.

Our Mission

To make disciples, equip leaders, and plant churches throughout Nagoya by proclaiming, teaching, and living the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Our Core Values

1) Gospel-centered - ANF believes that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God for the salvation of all people. The Gospel is how Christians are born, and the Gospel is how Christians grow. We believe that all of our teaching and practice should be based on the Gospel of Jesus Christ found in the Bible.

2) Church Planting – ANF is committed to planting new churches throughout our region. We intentionally meet in multiple sites around the city, and our events are translated into multiple languages to serve the members of our communities.

3) The Nations – Although our local focus is on church planting in the greater Nagoya area, ANF wants to be a blessing beyond our own city. We look for ways to proclaim the Gospel in other parts of Japan and the world for the glory of Christ.

"ONE WOMAN & BABY AT A TIME"

Our mission is to see every life valued from conception and every exploited woman in Korea free, healed and empowered.

Thus, we seek to provide:

  1) Crisis counseling, addressing physical, emotional, and spiritual needs
  2) Long-term community, housing, and opportunities to acquire education and job training
  3) Safe and dignified alternative employment through our developing social enterprise

Located in South Korea, Women’s Hope Center (WHC) is a registered non-profit organization that is wholly dependent on the faithful partnership of donors like you.

We seek to reach women at the moment when they first find out they are pregnant and have no one to turn to for help. Most of these young women reach us via our online chat at www.whckorea.org (Korean client outreach), making our reach national. We pick them up from motels or from bus stations. Others are referred to us by NGOs, government-run shelters (e.g. Pohang Family Center) and local churches (e.g.Jusarang Church, "Baby Box").

We run a crisis pregnancy center (the first of its kind in this nation) and "safe homes" (apartments in a community) known collectively as the "HOUSE OF HOPE."

Our clients include women escaping the sex industry (pregnant or not), teen runaways including those who are running away from family trying to force an abortion, aged-out orphans who have been surviving on their own by selling their bodies and young unwed mothers. We do not discriminate between unwed, married and divorced women. We do not discriminate between nationals and foreign nationals (e.g. sex-trafficked, bartered brides). The average age of our clients is 19 years old.

Your partnership in this essential, life-saving and life-transforming ministry is deeply appreciated. Thank you so much.

Hello! This is Christina.

This past year after graduating college has been quite a journey for me. God has been opening doors for me to rest, travel a lot, and experience so many different things. To list a few, I worked as a freelance designer for many different clients, volunteered at an English camp for North Korean(NK) and SK students and at YWAM Discipleship Training School for NK students, and have been volunteering as a tutor for NK students. Through these opportunities, my heart for missions has been growing, and God has recently opened a new door for me to commit a year as a full time staff for a ministry in Seoul.

Chi Alpha is an international Christian university ministry which began in the US in 1953 and just recently began in Korea in 2014. They are transforming the university, marketplace, and the world by making disciples who make disciples to the ends of the earth.

My tasks will be mainly divided into three parts: being involved in campus outreach, translating between Korean and English in a variety of ministry contexts, and reaching out to the NK community to start a new branch of the ministry.

I am excited yet anxious  at the same time about this journey, but I have no doubt that God will continue to immerse me in His blessings.

안녕하세요! 한윤정입니다.

대학교 졸업 후 보낸 지난 일 년은 하나님께서 주신 기회들을 통해 휴식을 하고, 많은 여행과 경험을 할 수 있었던 뜻깊은 한 해였습니다. 그동안 제가 한 몇 가지를 말씀드리자면 프리랜서로써 여러 클라이언트들을 위한 디자인도 하고 남북청소년 영어 통일캠프 그리고 탈북청소년을 위한 예수전도단 제자훈련 캠프에서 봉사도 하고 매주 탈북청소년을 위한 학교에서 과외로 봉사 중에 있습니다. 이런 기회들을 통해서 선교에 대한 마음이 생기고 최근에 하나님께서 일 년 동안 사역을 할 수 있는 문을 열어주셨습니다.

카이알파는 1953년 미국에서 시작하고 2014년에 한국에서도 시작된 국제 기독교 대학 사역단체입니다. 제자 양성을 통해 대학교, 시장, 그리고 세상을 변화시키는 중입니다.

제가 맡을 세 가지 주요 업무는 각종 캠퍼스 아웃리치에 참가, 사역에 필요한 한국어/영어 통역, 새로운 사역을 시작하기 위해 탈북민들과 관계를 쌓아가는 것입니다.

이 새로운 여정이 기대되기도, 떨리기도 하지만 하나님께서 축복을 부어주실 것을 믿어 의심치 않습니다.

JUSTICE 117 FILMS was established to explore and reveal the unfathomable circumstances that exploit the voiceless and the vulnerable. We exist to provide a platform for these courageous individuals who are willing to share their compelling stories in efforts to educate, inspire and motivate radical change in our community, if not the world.

Our next project is THE CO$T OF PLEASURE, a documentary about foreign girls being trafficked into South Korea. Check out our promo video above!

Support T and M as they minister in SE Asia

The Church Planting Institute is a core ministry of the Japan Evangelical Missionary Association. Our purpose is to foster a ministry vision for what God has in store for Japan and the world. This is a cooperative effort by missions, missionaries, and Japanese leaders and workers to see indigenous gospel-driven church planting movements fostered in this needy country. We welcome you to join us in this adventure of faith and ministry.

English Leadership Ministry (ELM) provides English tutoring classes and mentoring opportunities to TB college students living in Seoul.  Our main goal is to disciple and to empower the students to realize God’s purpose in their lives.  The Chinese “ELM” tree is native to Northern part of Korean Peninsula and is one of the strongest trees. It's bark is used for many tools. They uproot and grow well in multiple types of soil as long as they are given the proper amounts of water, sunlight, and shade…just like people, when given the right tools, can be adaptable and grow well in a variety of different lands. English tutoring is a great platform to disciple and to even the playing field for TBs to pursue their full potentials along side South Korean peers. 

Partner with us in blessing our local missionaries serving in South Korea! The 4th annual Missionary Appreciation Luncheon will take place on April 22, 2019. Please join us in showing appreciation to leaders from various missions organizations, para-church and campus ministries, NK-related organizations, and justice and mercy groups. We plan to host over 60 missionaries to the luncheon where they can be encouraged and network with each other and with other English ministry leaders. It will be a great time to share, eat, pray, and connect with others serving in similar fields. Thanks for your support!

Church Planting Boot Camp will provide the student with an introduction to the major start-up issues the planter faces in the first year of starting a new church. This course will cover thirty practical skill modules in the areas of personal preparation, strategic planning, core group development, and public launching. Boot Camp style training with immediate interaction, application, and coaching applied to each training module will be utilized.

We will present successful models of Korean Church Planting from EM Church Planting to Independent Korean Church Planting to International Church Planting.
