"Homecoming Gatherings" will hold Korea Gathering in Gwangju on January 11-14, 2017, according to Watchmen for the Nations. The sponsor invites the Chinese in Asia to focus on this gathering.
Isaiah Beak (Podowon Church), on behalf of Korea Gathering Servant Team, claims, "We are living in a critical time where the Lord is calling the nations to respond to Him......we welcome the global family to join and worship, standing together as one Body. It is time for Asia and Korea, Jew and Gentile alike to align with the Lord. He is revealing his desire to the Body of Christ in Korea, that we may respond in unity and position ourselves for His end-time purposes."
He adds, "Now is the time to lay down our agendas and only seek His face. From individuals to families; from families to our nation; from our nation to the nations - we are returning to the heart of the Father. 'Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.' (Isaiah 60:1) We long to see his word come to be fulfilled - to 'turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers', so He will not 'come and strike the land with a curse.' (Malachi 4:6)"
Speaking of Korea, the host states, "We remember how the mighty work of God resurrect and transform us into New Korea. Now, we believe that we are pressing on what Jesus commanded us 'unwrap him and let him go' (John 11:44b) and to do it in obedience and ONE heart. In His presence, His family and His Kingdom shall be aligned to worship and pray with one heart and in one accord."
