Guarani land visit
Early January Abe flew down to Paraguay, the land of Guarani, for Sonia's wedding, who is like a sister to him. He met his dearest grandmother who is almost in her 90s, but suffers of dementia. She remembers of old time, which helped her remember Abe her first grand son. However, in a minute later, she asked back "Who are you?" It was tough and sad. Abe hugged and blessed in prayer. She liked it. She responded to it with a hug. Dear God! please bless her to the last day of her life.
Dear friend, Daniel Park. He has become a guardian of Paraguay. I mean...he is one of a few friends still in that remote country, while others have remigrated onto USA or other South America countries. He lives with his wife and 3 beautiful girls, whose growth give him smile all day. Though he might have had difficult moments of life due to economy in Paraguay, but his faith in Christ is always the priority #1. Blessings, my friend.
Pastor Carlos Roberto Maureira & Mrs. Angela Ramos are Abe's first fellow ministers in his ministry experience. As they continously used "...sira-a" (a Paraguayan suffix expressing friendliness), they spent hours talking. Updates on their children: Suan went to Spain to explore her life, and Carlitos preparing for his college in the US. God bless them.
Soo Wan "Smurf" Lee got finally married and has an year old boy. During Abe's visit, his son was sick and SW ran allover the town looking for medical attention. He runs a small business, repairing and selling glasses. His shop became relatively small as we grew up and the city become a competing jungle. May God bless his marriage and business.
Besides, Abe met Joon-Myung, Kwang-Jong, Jae-Wook, and Dong An, who is missionary pastor in town.
