Alleluia Concert

When I went to Korea last May, I visited my alma mater – Kyung Hee University. There I met with Professor Suh, the leader of the Alleluia Choir. She asked me if I could arrange their visit to the SF area. My job was to arrange four concerts and find volunteers to provide food, lodging, and transportation for twenty-seven people for a week. I started out this project with a question, “what can I do to make this happen?”

I made several calls to rich alums, and inquired if they could house students for a week. They were all doing something during the second week of August. Their answer was “No”.

I was losing sleep over concert arrangements. My husband prompted me to go to my favorite place, Prayer Mountain, for an answer. When I told about the concert to the Prayer Mountain pastor, she immediately said, “Let’s pray”. She exclaimed, “We have been preparing for a concert on this mountain one day, and the day has come.” The pastor thanked me for bringing in this good news. They are preparing their first annual concert.

Now the concert tour schedule is set, and many people joyfully offered their services and resources to help out the choir team. I learned valuable lessons through this experience: 1) God chooses His workers for His jobs, 2) Ask God’s people to participate in God’s work, 3) Collaborate with others for the best result, and 4) Be flexible

I know God is pleased to see how his children work together to make beautiful harmony. Please come and hear the Alleluia choir at the First Southern on August 13th at 6 p.m.
