One year ago, Minyeol was wrapping up the last semester of his undergraduate classes. Now, he is finishing up the first year of his graduate studies in Theology. There are still challenges having all virtual classes, but his optimism to push through is inspiring. We asked Minyeol to answer a few questions on how his fall semester of graduate school is going. Here are his answers translated in English:
1) What do you enjoy most about college?
2) What is your favorite thing to do on the weekends?
3) What is the most challenging thing about college?
4) How does the scholarship money of 700,000 KRW help you pay for school or does it help you with living costs?
5) Do you have anything you would like to say to your KKOOM supporters?
6) What are you most grateful for?
7) What helps you get through really tough days?
8) What is your favorite season of the year and why?
Anytime we hear from Minyeol, he is most grateful for you. By investing in his graduate studies, you are keeping hope alive for this young man navigating the world through difficult circumstances, something that he acknowledged in this blog post.
Each of you may have experienced your own difficult days this year as well. Despite the unexpected we have navigated the past several months or the past two years, we extend a heartfelt thank you for taking the time to support, care, and give love to young adults like Minyeol.
Even through the hard days, you give strength to a young man on the other side of the world. Your generosity is reminding Minyeol to be grateful for everything he has. Through the holiday season, we hope you find joy through rest and are continuing to stay safe, healthy, and blessed. Thank you for being a blessing to our college scholars Minyeol and Jaehyuck.
With gratitude,
-Grace
