Caleb Mission Newsletter 💌 The First Week of June

Hallelujah! We pray that the God of peace is with you always.

Here at the North Korean escapee community, the potato plants are blooming, and as we prepare for the upcoming monsoon and early harvest, we are filled with joyful anticipation. Our animals are healthy and multiplying. Just as life is flourishing here, we pray that God’s anointing and abundant blessing will continue to overflow in every part of Caleb Mission’s work—saving lives, proclaiming the gospel, and raising up future North Korean missionaries.

Today, we would like to share a few prayer requests with you. As the Lord moves your heart, please pray with us and support as you are led—whether small or great, it all matters deeply.

By God’s miraculous grace, we have come this far—rescuing North Korean escapees, sharing the gospel, and helping them rebuild their lives. There have been difficult moments, but your prayers and partnership have always sustained us. Recently, however, we are facing significant financial challenges, and we humbly ask for your continued prayers and support so that this mission may not stop.

Earlier this spring, as we prepared for our U.S. tour, the Lord gave us a vision to raise 7,000 prayer warriors and monthly donors giving $12 each. So far, 108 supporters have joined. We are now praying that through the upcoming fall tour, this vision will be fulfilled. This is not just a fundraiser—it’s a movement of faith preparing for the day God opens the doors to North Korea. We ask you to pray for this campaign and share it with others who might join.

During my last visit to the U.S., I struggled with a cold and allergies, but the most difficult part was transportation. As you know, the U.S. is vast, and getting around—whether flying between cities or moving within them—was challenging. Due to a past injury during ministry, I have metal implants in my neck, and now I experience significant pain, especially during long travel. I believe a 7-seater van would be ideal, allowing me to recline when needed. If you have a vehicle you could donate, or if you feel led to help cover the cost of a used vehicle, we would be incredibly grateful. Above all, we welcome your prayers for God’s provision in this area.

Through the 7,000 Partners campaign, we hope to build a solid foundation to continue rescuing North Korean escapees and expanding our ministry in the U.S. The work is only getting harder, and financial needs are growing—but we are determined not to let even one life be lost. We believe God works through our best efforts, just as He turned water into wine at the wedding in Cana. That same power is still at work today.

Dear friends, your prayers and your dedication can be the spark that helps save lives. Please stand with us. Caleb Mission is continually praying for you, and we pray that God’s blessings overflow in your home and life. Thank you!

Yours in Christ,

a debtor to love,

Pastor Seungeun Kim

1. Heavenly Father, we pray that You would anoint and lead Caleb Mission’s rescue ministry so that it may never cease until the day the doors to North Korea are opened through the power of the gospel. 2. God, please provide the vehicle needed for our ministry in the United States, so that the gospel may be preached and North Korean escapees may be rescued across the nation. 3. God, please make a way for the North Korean escapees still waiting to be rescued in China. Anoint the sisters being discipled at the Southeast Asia center, and bless the missionaries serving there with strength, health, and peace in their homes.

In Jesus' Name, Amen
