A Quiet Time of Work & Prayer






Three of us were blessed recently with an opportunity to visit Jesus Abbey, a monastic community high in the mountains of eastern Korea. As part of a TCIS Middle School service trip, Brian, Hannah and Cora joined over 20 students for a three-day visit to this peaceful community. The group witnessed first-hand the realization of the phrase "Prayer is work and work is prayer." We shoveled manure, picked stones, dug up weeds and prayed a lot. In addition, the community has some deep and meaningful connections with North Korea that were highly insightful.
