~ Final Round of the 7th Bible Quiz

Even the last spirit of the summer could only wane and succumb to their passion for the Word of God.
Sponsored by the Men's Mission (Elder Abraham Moon, President) and held under the auspices of the Men's Mission Seoul Regional Assembly (Elder Suk-Gil Song, President), the first and second preliminary rounds of "The 8th Bible Quiz" took place on Sunday, August 24, 2008, following the Morning Service and the Evening Service, respectively, in the Main Sanctuary of Manmin Central Church.
An event taking place every year to arm Manmin members with the Word, the first preliminary round saw child to adult members of all branch churches throughout Korea compete. The second preliminary round was held with first-round participants who had scored 90 or higher out of 100, and consisted of 5 short-answer questions and 15 questions in which the participants were required to write out specific verses.
Following the two preliminary rounds, 46 participants – 30 from Manmin Central and 16 from branch churches in Korea – competed in the Final Round on Sunday, September 7, 2008, following the Evening Service.
Members of all Manmin Churches strive to take after the Lord by reading a chapter and memorizing a verse from the Bible every day. Daily verses taken from the weekly sermons are provided at the back of the bulletins every week and the questions on the Quiz were from the 365 verses from August 2007 to July 2008.
First begun in 2001, the annual Quiz has met enthusiastic response and seen an increase in the number of participants year after year. Past recipients of the Grand Prize have been pastors, ministers, members of College, Canaan, and Men's Missions, and from branch churches (more on Page 3).
