“I really don’t want to go to Korea! It’s a freezing cold, colourless place where people only wear khaki and fight wars!” For two, fourth generation Australians in the early 1970’s, the only vision of Korea they had was from recalling newspaper articles about the Korean War in the 1950’s, when many Australians died of the cold as well as the war. That image of Korea was imprinted on their mind, and it was the last place in the world the wife wanted to go to. However, they had just been offered an opportunity to go and work there as lay missionaries. This is the story of how accepting that offer in blind faith completely changed their concept of Korea and unbelievably enriched their life journey, including their family, and grandchildren, in fact forever.
