Technorati“China is responsible for all of these abuses and for the murder by the North Korean government of numerous refugees,” the KCC president accused.
During the regional conference, organizers will distribute “Let My People Go before the Beijing Olympics” banners, stickers, as well as DVDs and other materials to the participating pastors to take back to their home churches.
The campaign hopes that hundreds of thousands of banners and bumper stickers will be displayed throughout the United States before the Olympics Games.
Organizers had hoped to gather only 300 Korean-American pastors in their effort to replicate the biblical story of Gideon and his outnumbered army of 300 men who still defeated the massive Midianite forces with the help of God. With this famed story of defeating the enemy despite the odds, the pastors hoped to change the policy of big and powerful China despite their small number.
Following the LA event, Gideon’s 300 will continue its campaign and hold conferences in Chicago, Houston, New York, Seattle and Toronto. All the conferences will be held before the Aug. 8, 2008, Beijing Olympics.
Korean Church Coalition came together in 2004 as a collective response to end the sufferings endured by North Koreans. The coalition represents more than 3,000 pastors and millions of their congregational members in every major city in the United States.
The “Let My People Go” campaign was launched in 2007 to seek cooperation from religious and humanitarian groups to win freedom for the 300,000 North Korean refugees currently residing in China.
The Gideon’s 300 LA Conference ends Wednesday.
