Sent International Initiative
Chicago, IL
Jonghoon (John) Park had the privilege of planting a church in Ansan, South Korea, catering to the factory workers from the Philippines during his professional career as a regional operations manager for global companies. During this time, he came to realize that the missional landscape of the 21st century had undergone profound changes, with nations converging in major cities worldwide. Presently, Jonghoon serves as an executive team member of the Global Diaspora Network at Lausanne, aiming to assist local churches in addressing new missional challenges and opportunities arising in the age of globalization.
Jonghoon and Eunju are actively involved in establishing a missional church called SENT International Church in Wheeling, IL. SENT International Church embodies a dynamic, multi-ethnic missional community with a central mission of equipping and sending its members into every sphere of their lives as God’s missionary force. Within this missional perspective, SENT International Church recognizes the workplaces of its members, where they engage daily with non-believers, as significant mission territories of the church (Matthew 28:19-20).
