On Sabbath afternoon, July 9, Andrew Kim was ordained to the gospel ministry in Anchorage. Kim has pastored the Anchorage Korean Church since 1999, when he moved from Marietta, Georgia. While at Marietta, Kim planted a new church that grew into a large congregation. When Kim moved to Anchorage, he continued that drive to grow congregations. He has led his congregation of 85 through the process of building a new $1.5 million church, which the congregation took occupancy of in September.
Kim and his wife, Audrey, have one son, Isaac, who is the young-adult pastor of the Calimesa Adventist Church in California.
