Schol, enjoyed sailing at West River Center, visited numerous tourist sites, went to a Baltimore Orioles baseball game (right photo), and attended Impact, a large youth retreat gathering in Pennsylvania.

Nineteen youth from the Southern Conference of the Korean Methodist Church visited the Baltimore-Washington Conference July 22 to Aug. 3, continuing the annual youth exchange visits between the two conferences that began two years ago.

They visited Eden Korean UMC in Baltimore, whose pastor, the Rev. Chi Bon Jang (left side in photo) spoke with their adult leader, the Rev. Jong Man Lee (right side in photo).
