(S. Korea) — And finally, SIM International has a new international missionary sending office in South Korea. According to statistics, the number of Korean missionaries being called to the field is increasing. In response, SIM opened their 9th field office in that strategic country. SIM’s International Director Jim Plueddemann says this is a significant time in the history of SIM. As many Korean missionaries are currently serving overseas, this gives SIM an opportunity to encourage more people to go to the field.
