Crying together, Praying together

After finally recovering from about 3 months of gastritis, we miscarried very early on in our second pregnancy in June. And through this very sad event we learned to appreciate and marvel even more at the miracle of birth. We are very thankful and blessed that we have been able to conceive again, and are expecting a baby boy in May 2010.

God also used the miscarriage for me to be able to show heart-felt compassion towards and pray for a Japanese friend from my High School days (in Germany) who was feeling depressed as she had just miscarried again for a second time that year. We were able to re-connect through facebook and became better friends than back in HS because we were the only ones who had a child (of our HS friends), both daughters too and about the same age. A close friend back home miscarried just a couple of weeks after as well.

So many women opened their hearts to me during this time, prayed with me, and shared their experiences with me for which I was very grateful. Through this heart breaking experience, I was able to be grateful to God for being there for me, for having surrounded me with a network of supporting friends and family, and for using me to reach out to a friend in need too, who doesn't have that support network.

I received a facebook message from my Japanese friend just recently letting me know that she's just had surgery for her 3rd miscarriage (within the past year). My heart cries for her... I really wish I could give her a hug, hold her hand, and pray for and with her. Please join me in praying for her, that she will come to know the love, peace, and healing of our Lord...

Our journey to Japan through 2009

We began 2009 full of enthusiasm and energy that fueled us through the rest of the year. We had just returned from our one-month vision trip to Japan and spent a wonderful time with our family to finish off 2008.

2009 started off with us attending Pioneers International's Candidate Orientation Program (COP) in January (picture) where we met with the leaders of the organization, the administrative staff and other missionaries looking for a partnering missions agency. Our schedule was filled with worship, sharing of testimonies, learning about Pioneers, intensive interviews and times of fellowship. Everyone there felt as if they were part of one big family, and God confirmed to us through various conversations and with much peace that Pioneers was the organization with which we were to partner in our journey to Japan. This was the beginning of when God prompted us to raise up prayer and financial partners as opposed to going to Japan as tentmakers. Now we realize God's wisdom in this, which was for us to share of the spiritual need in Japan to the many people who would not have heard about the deep spiritual need in Japan otherwise. Now, hundreds of people are much more aware that 99.6% of the Japanese population do not know the hope that is found in Jesus Christ.

February was a rough month for Jenny. She started having stomach pains that we couldn't explain. After going to the doctor, we discovered she suffered from gastritis. She took various prescription medications, but none helped. One day, while visiting Peter's parents, Peter's dad introduced her to bamboo roasted salt. In just a couple of days Jenny started feeling much better. Unfortunately, this remedy had a negative side-effect. Since this salt had to be consumed orally and smells like rotten eggs, Peter kept his distance from her. ;) We were both glad that she healed quickly. All the while, we were in the process of creating our brochures (English & Korean), prayer magnets, and missions presentation.

At the beginning of March, we found ourselves back at PI's HQ in Orlando, Florida for their Pre-Field Connection (PFC) where we were united with other missionaries who were on the verge of departing to their designated missions locations. Most of the attendees had been raising support from anywhere between 2-10 years and were now just attending PFC. We were so encouraged to hear each of the stories of their journeys that God was taking them on, and we were ready to return to San Jose to start sharing our journey with others.

Since then we've connected with 26 churches, spoke at 23 Small Group Gatherings, have 226 Prayer Partners, and over 200 people have partnered with us in either one time or monthly financial support. We thank God in providing these divine appointments and opportunities to make new friendships and partners in helping to make a difference in Japan through the Good News of Jesus Christ. It truly is a miracle and we really can't help but acknowledge God's hand being with our preparations to go to Hiroshima, Japan.

The graph shows the progress we've made in our journey to Japan. Each point shows monthly total of the number of people who committed to being our prayer partners, and amounts given and pledged in finances as percentages of our total goals: 365 prayer partners, $42,750 Departure Fund, and $7,162 Monthly Support.

April - Our "partnership development" phase officially started with our first speaking engagement to AWANA kids! We shared how two young eleven year old girls, Sydney and Taylor (the daughters of our Team Leaders in Hiroshima), were making a difference in Japan, and that God can speak through any one at any age.

May - Our first opportunities to share to an adult audience. =) We had wonderful times of sharing, encouragement, worship and prayer.

June - A generous family had offered a $3,000 Matching Gift Donation, which was matched in less than a month! These partners helped raise over $6,000 for our Departure Fund.

July - Another generous family had offered a $4,000 Matching Gift Donation, which was also matched in less than a month and helped raise over $8,000 toward our Departure Fund! We also went on a 3-week trip to Dallas, TX to make some new connections there. We met many friendly faces, and were very encouraged.

August - Motorcycle Bike-a-Thon's goal of raising $10,000 was exceeded by almost $4,000 for a total of nearly $14,000.

September - We were able to take a wonderful weekend getaway to Pebble Beach in the midst of small group meetings and sharing at churches thanks to a family lending us their vacation home. We also thought we were moving to Dallas during that time, but God had other plans.

October - Continued meeting in small groups and churches sharing God's heart for Japan.

November - Jenny turns 30! God also sends us on an impromptu trip to Korea to connect with churches and other supporters/partners. We thought the trip was a bit spontaneous, but realized it was in God's perfect timing.

December - Returned safely from Korea encouraged with many more partners who have come along side us on our journey to Japan.

We can't wait to see what God's plans for 2010 holds for us. It's already started off with a generous family offering a $3,000 Matching Gift Donation for new monthly supporters for a year. What a wonderfully encouraging start in this new year.

Thank you for tracking with us, and joining us on our journey! =)

As we are blessed, may we be a blessing to you and your family.

Every move I make

달라스로 이사한다고 그랬었다가 달라스로의 이사가 지연되었다고 하더니 갑자기 한국에 있다고 말씀드렸습니다. 하나님의 인도하심을 따르며 잘 분별하여 행동할려고 노력을 하지만 어쩔때는 갑작스럽게 움직여야할 때도 있었습니다. 요즘은 미국의 복음성가 "Every move I make I make in You"의 가사가 생각날 때가 많습니다.

현재 캘리포니아주의 산호제에 있는뉴비전교회의 선교관에서 당분간 지내고 있습니다. 2월 2-17일 까지 텍사스주의 달라스로 가게 되며 그 후에 산호제로 돌아오게 되고 그 후 남가주도 방문하고 싶습니다.

3월의 계획은... 하나님만 아십니다. ^^

New Year's Update

Friday January 8, 2010

Happy New Year!!!

Dear Peter and Jenny,

May your 2009 have been filled with many blessings with all that overflows from being in Christ, and your 2010 continue to resonate with love, joy and peace in Jesus Christ.

We returned from Korea very encouraged through the new prayer and financial partners God has brought to us. We're getting some essential rest, enjoying sweet times of fellowship with friends and family, and taking care of some essentials like visiting the doctor and completing ministry reports. Thank you for joining us on this journey!

Blessings! Peter, Jenny, Juhee, and Baby Oh

Praises for 2009

2009 has been filled with God's blessings. Thank you Jesus!

In summary, we are healthy, we have had a roof over our heads and clothes to wear (even for Jenny during her pregnancy and Juhee with her growth spurts), and have had plenty to eat. Praise God! The only thing we lacked was for Jenny to get a really good night's sleep, but we don't expect that to happen for the next 5 years or so. ;)

As for preparations for serving in Japan, God provided us the opportunities to connect with over 30 churches and share of our journey to Japan at 23 Small Group Gatherings from May 2009 in California, Texas, and Korea. Through these connections God brought 226 Prayer Partners into our lives, and over 200 people partnered with us in either one-time or monthly financial support. Praise God!

Although we're not currently in Japan as we would have liked, we have been very encouraged and challenged this past year and know that He will send us there in His perfect time. Thank you for your prayers, your emails, and for tracking with us. We continue to expect great things from God as we attempt great things for Him in 2010.

Partnership Update

We are also very thankful for the sacrificial giving of all of you who have helped us raise 100% of our needed Departure Fund, and 51% our Monthly Support (up from 42% last month)! We thank God for the new partnerships He has brought through our recent Korea trip and in the Bay area too. Thank you for partnering with us.

Danville Local Missions Event

Danville, California is a very affluent area but an area that is in need of hearing the gospel, very much like Japan. A family from Danville has started a local student Christian club called "Helping Hands for Christian Missionaries" and they are having a garage sale on Sat, Jan 30th in Danville to raise funds for Japan Missions. They will be collecting items on January 9th, 16th, and 23rd at a mutually agreed upon location.

Every move I make

We said we were moving to Dallas, then said we're delaying the move, and then all of a sudden told you that we're in Korea. We've tried to be as discerning as possible as we follow God's leading, and sometimes we had to be very spontaneous. We've been on the move a lot these days which reminds us of the song"Every move I make I make in You".

We're currently in San Jose, California living in New Vision Church's Missionary Housing for the time being. We'll be traveling to Dallas from Feb 2-17 and look forward to reconnecting with our friends in Texas! After that we'll be back in San Jose and are hoping to visit SoCal too once we're back in CA.

As for March... Only God knows. :)

December Highlights

Here are a few highlights for December.

Jenny turning 30 (November)

Our first video upload: Juhee's 1st Christmas Performance (with daddy!)

We also wrote a few blog postings about our prayer and financial support raising trip to Korea. Read about our visit toJubilee Church and a couple of testimonies, things that reminded us of home, and a summary of the amazing divine appointments that God provided while we were there.

(Remember, you can sign up on our blog to receive automatic updates each time we update it.)

Korea Trip: Jubilee Church

Jubilee Church in the Kangnam area of Seoul is one of the most unique churches in Korea in that they’re not part of a Korean church and that the congregation is made up of mostly expats, not Koreans who want more exposure to English. Unlike most of our other connections in Korea, this one was not instigated by my parents, but by my sister Jade & her hubby Jonathan, who are good friends with Jubilee’s new Executive Pastor, Pastor Drew & wife Sarah.

We had an opportunity to share at the Wednesday evening service. Before the service, we enjoyed a yummy toasted sandwich with chips dinner in the café that the church runs, and then joined in the great time of dynamic worship at Jubilee. We had an encouraging time of sharing about our Journey to Japan, and a time of intense corporate prayer – for us, for the people of Hiroshima, and for the people of Japan.

As it was a Wednesday evening service, the three of us went up together and shared different parts of the presentation. We like doing this as it allows the listeners to get to know all three (well, at least two) of us, rather than just Peter. We think this is important as missions isn’t just about Peter but about us going as a family, having been called as a family to serve in Japan.

After the service, we stuck around for a while and we were able to have good chats with a few members of the congregation. Many signed up for our newsletter and to be prayer partners which is always encouraging! A few told us of how they also have a heart for Japan and are praying about how and when their time will come.

To hear the message, visit Jubilee Church’s website at www.jubileeseoul.com and go to “resources”, “messages”, “launch sermon player” and then scroll down to click on our message, “Journey to Japan, 12/02/2009, Peter & Jenny Oh”.

Here are a couple of excerpts from emails that we received after sharing at Jubilee that I'd like to share with you.

"Yes, I am sure that my coming to Jubilee that night was no accident-- God's hand was definitely in it. It was random and unexpected, which has been the way it has always been for me when God has worked big things in and through my life. As a matter of fact, the most significant reason that I feel God may be leading me to Japan is that it is a country that I never would have chosen to go to on my own-- my interest in going there now has surprised even me, because it was never a part of any kind of plan or purpose that I had for myeslf."

"I was so blessed by hearing the two of you testify about what God is doing in your lives when you visited Jubilee church in Seoul. I couldn't really begin to talk to you when you were there because I was still processing through a lot of things that God had been revealing to me. [...] Whenever I pray for the plentiful harvest with few workers... I always see children, specifically preschoolers... [...] Anyway, after hearing you two speak the Lord confirmed a multitude of other things and I'm positive that (although I don't know when) I'm being prepared to go to Japan."

Emails / feedback like these are extremely encouraging to us. We initially didn't know why God wanted us to go around to various churches and small groups to raise prayer and financial partners instead of going to Japan silently as tentmakers. We have recently realized that God wanted us share about our journey to Japan so that many more would know the great spiritual need in Japan. It was in His wisdom to raise more workers for the harvest field through His ways, not ours.

Korea Trip: Things That Reminded Us of Home

We were treated to Starbucks one day and the aroma and atmosphere, even just the logo itself reminded us of home. Peter had a Cafe Mocha and Jenny had a Kiwi juice. Juhee shared the Kiwi juice with mommy, and she had a great time exploring the Starbucks store and saying hello to the other customers.

Being in a mini-apartment / studio gave us the freedom to cook & eat at home. On our first grocery shopping trip we saw Kellogg’s Cornflakes and as it was the same price we went for good old Kellogg’s. Once you open it, you have an option of folding it slightly differently, an option we hadn’t yet come across. It’s supposed to help conserve freshness.

On a few occasions we were able to meet up with friends from back home who just so happened to be in Korea at the same time as us (Thank You God!). It was great! It was almost like we were back home meeting up in Korea Town.

I take Juhee to playdates once a week and she was able to have a couple while we were in Korea too. As we were staying in such a small place and had practically no toys, it was refreshing to be able to take her to homes where she had place to roam, toys to play with, and could interact with other toddlers her age. =)

And last but not least, McDonald’s! They had a special deal with a few set menus costing 3,000 KRW (less than $3 US) and we were in need of something other than Korean food for a change so we visited good old McD’s. We were surprised to find that most of the customers were young families – there were so many kids! McD’s in Korea also delivers… I’m not aware of any other country where McD delivers. In Korea, you can get practically everything and anything delivered for no extra cost. Next time, I want to try their bulgogi burger... :P

Juhee's 1st Christmas Celebration

Our very first video upload!

Christmas Candlelight Service @ New Vision Church on Wed, Dec 23 2009.

We didn't make it to any of the rehearsals as we were in Korea & then jetlagged but the songs were on the church website so I played them for Juhee a few times before going to church that evening. She lo~ved being on stage and performing!!! :)

I didn't notice it at the time, but she started crying as she was leaving the stage 'cause she wanted to go straight down the stage stairs to mommy and grandma. She was ok though once daddy explained that they were going to see mommy by going around "this way".

She enjoyed dancing to most of the other performances that evening from the back of the Main Sanctuary where we were sitting. She had a great time!

Hopefully the 1st of many such cute Daddy & Daughter performances. :)

Korea Trip: Partnership Development

We’re so grateful for all of the divine appointments God provided during our one month partnership development trip to Korea. We went with an empty calendar and ended up almost being busier than we could handle! I think half of it was already in my mom’s head though. ;) On one Sunday we attended a 10am Japanese service, introduced ourselves to the teachers in the nursery department at 11:20am, Peter then preached for the 11:45am English service, and then we attended a 7pm evening Korean speaking service. @@

We met many high profile Korean pastors during our trip. I was filled with awe as I learned of the struggles they faced when they were starting out in ministry and are now such giants of wisdom, experience, and leadership. In addition to their main ministry in the churches that they planted, they wrote / are writing books, lecture at colleges / seminaries, and they also started orphanages, old people’s homes, and seminaries in Korea and abroad. Even after having accomplished so much, their “retirement” is anything but. They have so much love, energy, passion, and compassion!

We would like to especially thank my parents who were extra busy contacting pastors and friends so that we could share about God’s heart for the people of Japan and our calling to share the Good News with the people there. Our Senior Pastor, Pastor Peter Chin, also played an important role in establishing new partnerships as well as my awesome sister Jade and dear Kim Gwunsanim 김영진 권사님 (see previous posts here and here).

Through God’s leading, we were able to connect with the following churches:
* Antioch Church 안디옥 교회 (수원, 김장환 목사님)
* Shinbanpo Central Church 신반포중앙교회 (서울, 김성봉 목사님)
* Kangbyun Presbyterian Church 강변교회 (서울, 허태성 목사님)
* Hwapyoung Church 화평교회 (서울, 김병훈 목사님)
* Suwon Central Baptist Church 수원 중앙침례교회(수원, 고명기 목사님)
* Hallelujah Community Church 할렐루야교회 (분당, 김상복 목사님, Pastors Steve Chang & Cristian Rata)
* Wooridle Church 우리들의 교회 (서울, 김양재 목사님)
* Global Missions Church 지구촌교회 (분당, 이동원 목사님)
* Jubilee Church (Seoul, Pastor Dave Hwang)

The top four churches have already committed to supporting us monthly and we’re still waiting to hear back from some of the others. After having gone through the application process with a number of churches, I’ve realized that the hard part isn’t us preparing our application, but the decision making process of the churches as there are so many missionaries out there needing financial support but limited resources at each church. Regardless of the final decision, we are thankful that God has brought so many awesome people into our lives and hope that this is the beginning of a long and loving friendship in Christ.

Please keep the decision making committees in your prayers as they prayerfully consider partnering with us.

(These are pics of some of the pastors and elders/deacons that we met. There were many more!)

Turning 30

My 20th birthday was a very sad birthday – my family were due to leave the UK and return to the US just 3 days after my 20th birthday. The only reason why they were even there to celebrate it with me was because my mom had made special arrangements for them to stay a bit longer so that we could be together, except for dad who had to start work in the USA.


My 20s were full of surprises, lots of moves, and lots of changes (college student, temp-ing, full-time permanent job, promotions, changes in companies, part-time postgrad student, engagement / marriage, becoming a pastor’s wife, becoming a mom, preparing for long-term missions). I’m hoping my 30s won’t be quite as unpredictable and a bit more stable, especially once we move to Japan and settle down there.

On the first day of November 2009, I turned 30! So much has happened during the past ten years… Friends keep on asking me how it feels to turn 30. It feels great! When I posted the picture of Juhee and me on my facebook page, one friend said “so she’s 5 and you’re 2” and another friend said “you’re 52!”. I definitely don’t want to be 2 again but I don’t think I’d mind being 52 and be able to reflect back on my life and know when and how things happened. Hindsight is such a wonderful thing. On the other hand, the unknown can be somewhat scary and stressful.


This birthday was extra memorable because I got to celebrate it three times with the special people in my life - with my wonderful mommy friends (picture), with most of my family, and a special date with hubby. =) Last year we were in Japan and hopefully next year and onwards we'll be in Japan too, so I was very grateful for the opportunity to celebrate with loved ones. I'm going to miss family, but I'm really going to miss the fellowship, laughter, and prayers that my Pathway mommy friends have blessed me so much with. It's going to be hard to develop this level of closeness with mommy friends in Japan and share life with them, but that's why we're in it for the long haul!

I wonder which country we'll be in for my 40th and who we'll be celebrating it with... Hmmm... =)

서울에 있어서 감사

현 재 서울에 있습니다. 여러 목사님들, 권사님들, 집사님들을 서울 곧곧, 수원, 분당을 열심히 다니며 만나고 협력 선교사로써 일본선교에 동참할 기회들을 알아보고 있습니다. 11월 중순 부터 있었고, 12월 중순에 미국으로 돌아갑니다. 많이 걷고 지하철도 많이 타고 다니는데 주희가 "폭폭칙칙" ^^; 타는 것을 아주 즐긴답니다. 작년 일본 비전여행때와 같이 이번에도 미국을 떠날 당시에는 텅텅 비어있던 스케쥴을 하나님께서 꽉꽉 채워주셔서 집에 있는 날이 거의 없습니다. 할렐루야! 서울에서 있었던 일들을 여기서(클릭) 더 읽어보세요 (영어)...

김 영진 권사님은 저희의 첫 한글 소그룹 모임에서 처음 뵜었습니다. 처음에는 저희가 너무 준비도 덜 되고 일본에 대한 지식도 너무 없는 것 같아 걱정을 많이하셨습니다. 하지만 저희의 이야기를 들어보신 후 저희의 가장 큰 응원자가 되시고 우리를 엄청나게 격려해 주셨습니다. 한국에서 함께 했던 시간들에 대해 여기서(클릭) 더 읽어보세요 (영어).
