Middle and Upper School students had the unique opportunity during this week's assembly to hear how God opened the door for a mission team of musicians to visit North Korea. Reverend Warren Rogers, minister of music at First Baptist Church of Perry, and Reverend Danny Stubbs, minister of music at Houston Lake Baptist Church, shared with our students about their incredible trip in 2012 with the Georgia Baptist Mission Board. They are among the very few Americans to ever have a glimpse inside the culture of the country of North Korea. #educationofmindandheart
