Paik’s passion
Korea native Peter Paik, addressing a May 15 commissioning service for new North American Mission Board missionaries, is working to establish a church for the deaf in the San Francisco Bay area.
BROKEN ARROW, Okla. (BP)--In a fanfare from choir and orchestra, the congregation of First Baptist Church rose to their feet to welcome 55 missionaries being commissioned by the North American Mission Board in the Sunday morning service, May 15, in Broken Arrow, Okla.
      Missionaries entered the worship center in parade fashion, each couple and individual led by a high school student bearing the Christian flag. The 55 missionaries were commissioned as church planters, mission strategists and campus ministers to reach people of various nationalities and cultures in the United States and Canada.
      Two missionaries shared passionate testimonies about God’s call.
