Why are Korean missionaries flocking to Kenya?
(The Christian Science Monitor) Curiosity about a four-day Bible study extravaganza had been building here for weeks. Across Nairobi, Korean pastor Ock Soo Park's smiling face has beamed down from posters as Kenyan followers handed out inviting fliers to locals.
The event was the Good News Mission Church's first African “National Bible Crusade,” held last week in Nairobi's Nyayo Stadium to mark 20 years since Park first came to Kenya.
Inside the stadium, famous Korean and Kenya gospel singers performed, and Kenyan religious leaders translated Korean sermons. Locals danced and clapped on the field as Korean visitors strummed guitars on stage and sang in Swahili.
