This church is surrounded by rice paddies. Many people do not know that half of the Korean population is Christian, and the other half id Buddhist. The worlds largest Christian church is in Korea. This church is outside of Songtan a small town in the city of Pyongtaek.

Wow! I didn't realize that half of the Korean population was Christian! That is awesome! I heard a sad statistic recently that said the only nation in the world whose Christian population is declining is America! In fact, I heard the statistic in connection with what was going on with the Christian church in Korea, and it was noted that Korea regularly sends missionaries to America now.

What an interesting photo!

The grass is actually a rice paddy. All over Korea there are fields just like this. They make good habitats for Great Egrets as they search for food.
