Texas A&M University (TAMU) is one of two flagship universities in Texas. Although etablished as Texas Agricultural and Mechanical College, it became a university with “A&M” becoming symbolic. Campus is so big, and currently 45,000 student are enrolled in Texas A&M University. Engineering, agricultural science, and veterinary schools are very famous.
M. James and Lydia Hong's family with their son, Noah, started pioneering TAMU campus as M. James entered chemical engineering PhD program at 2007. At the same time, God sent M. Daniel Byeon who was studying theology at Texas Christian University at Fort Worth, Texas to help Texas A&M UBF. He visited TAMU every week with 3 h driving, and led Bible study, served Sunday worship service, and went campus fishing together. At the end of 2009, M. Taesoo and Hyeduk Song's family with two daughters, Yehee and Esther, joined Texas A&M UBF as a postdoc in Physics, while M. Daniel Byeon returned to Korea to serve Gwanak3.
We pray that each of missionaries become excellent English Bible teachers and have one to one Bible students. In this summer, M. James will graduate PhD program and is looking for a postdoc position, and M. Taesoo has to renew his postdoc contract. We pray God may lead us best next positions. Also brother Jesus, a senior student majoring in ecology, knows Christ Jesus deeply through the Bible study.
