South Korea with the Youth President - A perspective from the Partnership Coordinator
"Walking beside fences with signs warning of land mines made a powerful impression on the young people I was with, but far more impressive for me were the strips of paper with messages of hopes for peace tied to the barbed wire fencing, and then the sculpture of people trying to push a divided world back together."
Sheila Norris - Partnership Coordinator for Asia and the Pacific reflects on her recent journey to South Korea with the Youth President James Carver. A place of huge Methodist congregations, 24 hour prayer rooms, a country torn apart and also personal connection for Sheila to former missionaries who served and were laid to rest in Korea.
