About Us

Welcome to Living Hope!

Living Hope Ministries serves the Youth and EM of Korean First Presbyterian Church—Atlanta. We seek to share the gospel of Christ by serving both the 2nd generation children of immigrant parents and the multiethnic peoples of Atlanta.

Our purpose is simple—to provide a haven of peace and hope within a tumultuous society. Our mission is then to be salt and light unto this world in which Christ has called us to serve in love and humility. We strive to be a beacon of light in order to aid those who are weary and lost. Come and join our fellowship and experience the love of Christ that is accessible to all and unites peoples of all backgrounds together in one body.

Ministries
Living Hope is still growing and is divided into three ministries—youth, college, and young adult:

Youth

The Youth Group of Living Hope ranges students from middle school to high school (approximately ages 11 - 18), led by Andy Kim JDSN and Joseph JDSN (at Suwanee Campus). Students have fellowship and attend Take 6, the Saturday youth fellowship. The youth fellowship serves the church by serving in one of various teams: worship, skit, movie, decor, activity. These different teams provide outlets for young Christians to serve the Lord with the various gifts they have been given.

College

The College group or EM is led by Jay Liang & Young Jin Yang and is composed of college students. They hold a unique college student-based fellowship on Fridays to discuss life matters and Christianity in today's iron society, as well as to outreach and enjoy camaraderie within a Christ-based environment. The EM helps to serve the youth and the church by mission trips, outreach teams, and impact teams in various college campuses and other locations.

Young Adult

As our ministry expands, Pastor Young envisions to branch out for young adults and eventually married couples.
