September Already!

So we have been here 5 months already and really I can't believe it. I am sorry I never put any pics up from the last post. These are a few from our weekend in Daecheon. It was lovely and the swimming was even better! Had lots of fun chilling on the beach.
The last few weekends have been a busy at work and at play. Though I am having trouble remembering what we have actually done! The highlight of this past one was going to see a Korean all star bball team play a team made up of ex-NBA players and some NBDL players. Pretty much was a dream come true for Chris who loves NBA ball. There weren't very many fans which we were surprised by but that didn't matter because we got great seats. Definitely a memorable experience and loads of fun.
Over the past couple weeks we have been getting involved in finding out what is going on in N.Korea. On Friday night we went to a prayer vigil in Seoul for the liberation of the country. I am just going to give you a run down of what is going on there and what you can be praying for.
An estimated 7,000,000 people are starving to death right now in N.Korea. Also an unknown number are dying in political prison camps of the most horrifying brutality and torture for really having committed no crime. The North Korean human rights crisis and genocide there is one of the worst in the world today. Unfortunately the international community has been silent and not tried to intervene in any way. I think they are afraid of Kim Jung Il but politics is something I don't understand.
Anyways there are some human rights groups and churches in Seoul that are banning together to demonstrate and pray for the liberation of N.Korea every Friday until it happens, which could be years. I want to help raise awareness so that is why I am writing about it. If you are interested you can go to http://www.seoultrain.com/ . There is a video you can get and watch that talks about what is going on in the country and also about the refugees that flee to China. It is quite heart wrenching what can happen to these people. I know that a lot of terrible things are happening in this world and that people are starving every where and are persecuted. But this nations has absolutely no foreign aide and the people have no means of help.
I hope that was somewhat informative you can ask me questions if you would like to know more about it or check out the website.
~ school is going well I just started a new term and Chris is finishing up his. Teaching is going good not to much to report there. We are enjoying the change in weather as cooler temperatures are on their way. We definitely get 4 seasons here it is very nice.
Well that's about all the news from here.
until next time~ :)
