ABOUT DR. PARK
Dr. Park has extensive experience as a pastoral, denominational and academic leader, primarily in Korea, but more recently in Canada. Originally a pastor at the General Assembly of Presbyterian Church in Korea for 17 years, he has been a pastor at Fellowship Evangelical Baptist Church Canada since 2004. In 2014, Dr. Park joined the work of ACTS Seminaries for establishing the Global Leadership Korean language program. One of his interests is training God's people to be good Christian leaders.
