"I’m so happy to see you again!" Kang Dongwon shouted with excitement as he was reporting in the NSD office. He just came back from New York after his successful first mission of the "One Year in Mission" project. OYiM(One Year in Mission) is the new initiative of General Conference Youth Department to provide greater opportunities for our youth to directly engage in leadership, decision-making, and the proclamation of the Everlasting Gospel.
From 13 different divisions and one attached Union, 14 Adventist young adults gathered together in New York to join this project and Mr. Kang was sent by NSD. They spent 6 months together in New York and came back to their respective areas to spread this movement.

OYiM project in New York included 4 main activities. Training & Equipping, Community Service, Evangelism, and Communication. These 14 young adults were meant to be involved in these 4 areas to maximize their potentials for the Mission that God has given to them.
Now they have successfully finished their first phase of OYiM project and preparing for the next phase in their respective areas. Our NSD missionary Kang Dongwon will be sent to Tokyo, Japan to equip young people with the word of God so that it may bring changes to their lives and their churches. We need powerful support in prayer for these young missionaries as they carry out the gospel to the world.
