January is off to a great start at Elim Community! Community classes offered in January include weekly fitness/strength training, art and conversational English classes. We’ve had participants join us from both Elim House, the Incheon Hana Center and also those who heard by word of mouth.
Most classes have been taught by our Crossing Borders and Elim House staff and we’ve also had outside instructors brought in for specialized classes, such as art.
We’ve heard from our instructor and the Elim House team that the women work extremely hard during their fitness classes to the point where some aren’t able to make it to the next class due to being overly sore!
Recently, we also had an opportunity to visit a North Korean senior center. With outdoor activities limited due to winter weather, our missionaries blessed the center with a ping-pong table. As a result, our team was challenged to a friendly ping-pong tournament! Team Elim was not victorious but a great time was had by all!
Elim Community classes are held at a coworking space in Incheon, which is easily accessible by public transportation.
We are also looking for partnerships with local Korean and English ministry churches in the Incheon area! Our first need is for instructors. If the talented folks at your church have a heart to serve by teaching classes, please contact us at hello@crossingbordersnk.org. Secondly, if your church has space for us to use to teach classes during the week, we would love to learn more!
Thank you for your support of our work! Happy Lunar New Year!
