亚洲文化遗产节 The gods were smiling on the Asian Community on May 13, 2017, on its 18th Asian Festival, 12th Dragon Boat Festival, 2nd Asian Music & Dance Fest/AMDF. It was in celebration of the National Asian American Cultural Heritage Month of May. Many exciting innovations debuted. The interactive 'Passport to Asia' activity game was a big hit with kids & adults alike, at the Cultural Country Showcase Tent. It provided learning opportunities about the Asian countries & their cultures, as per Ann Gonzalez, Showcase co Chair.

There was a raffle with interesting prizes from each country. More countries were represented like Bhutan, Burma, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Laos, Nepal, in addition to the Philippines, Korea, China, Indonesia, India, Vietnam, pinch hitting Taiwan. The Philippine booth featured ongoing demo by Tonette Asay of the many ways of using/wearing the "malong"(from a pareo, to a bag, to a baby carrier, skirt, to a headdress, wrap around dress, blanket, shawl, rain gear, ad infinitum). The AMDF boasted of performances from ethnic minorities not represented before, to inspire them to preserve their rich & unique cultural heritage, like the Nepalese, Chin Burmese, Montagnard...

The sun was brightly shining, spring weather, a cool breeze, & the lake conditions as perfect as can be for a dragon boat race. Calm waters, a wind dropping to a non-threatening 5 mph.

As is typical in North Carolina, where sometimes you have all the four seasons in a day, the day before was not so promising rains, high winds, not the least conducive to a day at Ramsey Creek Park, let alone dragon boat racing on Lake Norman.

But the loyal, avid volunteers were undaunted for they have been doing this for many years, in all kinds of weather: Lina Kweman, Sana Louis, Jerry Tucker, Jeff, Dr.Jian Zhang, Binh Phu, Kiran Patel, (Doris Tan, Phin Xaypangna, etc.). Most were already with us (Nimish Bhatt, Dr.John, Dr.Nini, Pauline Chan, Linda Yu, Becky Wu, etc) on the very first Asian Festival founded by Dr. Ki Hyun Chun, Dr.Sunny Chun, daughter Lena, Andrea Lee at Marshall Park. The

샬롯 아시안 축제 volunteers worked incessantly the day before: Mylene Clemente, Brian Tarle & the Charlotte Dragon Boat Association, readying the dragon boat staging area, Mae & James Armstead setting up the stage decors, Jessica Esguerra, Ram Cabanero delivering equipment for the Filipino food booth, Ralph Chung for the Korean bulgogi booth, Ann Gonzales & Cella Tanzil fixing up the country cultural showcase tent, Jennifer Khounbolay, singlehandedly doing the non-food vendors, just like Sana for food vendors.

Valuable help was also provided by Richard Clancy & his 16 Knights of Columbus volunteers, James Chao & Michael Wang & the Charlotte Chinese Academy volunteers, Farid Javidpour & his Iranian Club, UNCC. Dr. John Chen, the perennial Festival Chair, had some uneasy moments when the truck delivering the dragon boats from Florida bogged down, and they had to send a replacement lickety split. Some contestants for the AMDF had not even confirmed at the last minute, delaying the documentations by Aurea Barbee, Secretariat Chair, who was among those who did not sleep that night, preparing for the events. It does take more than a village to plan, program, and stage such a ginormous event like the Asian Festival with its multi-events. They highlight the rich diverse Asian cultures via the performing arts, sports, authentic cuisine, arts & crafts, with a splash of pageantry, a dizzying kaleidoscope of colors, sounds, visions, laced with tantalizing aroma & flavors!

The Opening Ceremony's headliner was the Lead Team of the Peaceful Dragon, the Dragon Dance, and the painting of the eye of the dragon by Councilwoman LaWana Mayfield, pinch-hitting for Mayor Jennifer Roberts, with the help of officials of the Parks & Rec. The Asian Music & Dance Fest, which I founded last year, in lieu of the Miss Asia Carolinas, to showcase the talents of Asian Americans of all ages. It attracted more participants this year, from the Asian minorities. It also featured some professional musicians in noncompeting performances, for a total of 20 performances. The Board of all nonAsian judges( to avoid bias) consisted of

Dr. Ann Dils, Chair of the Dance Dept, choreographer-dancer, UNCC, Robert W., Hudack, composer, playwright, pianist, Kelly Hutchinson, Founder & Creative Director of Mosaic-Arts, soprano of the Opera Carolina, & Dr.Brian Arreola, UNCC Music Dept.,Opera Carolina tenor.

Jeff Cheen, Founder of the Charlotte Music Awards was unable to join us this year.

Ms Tracy Borja coordinated the work of judges, with the auditors, Jaypee Ave, Padej Yakamna of Prudential & Dr.Mike Borja. Ms.Florami Lee, Lota Mascarenas registered the contestants, while Edelweiss de Guzman & Yulie Armstrong, and saw to the timely sequencing of performances. Sherman Tse & Somphit Somphang added sparkle as they emceed for both the AMDF and the country cultural program, run by Sharada Gullapali & Mae Armstead.

Winners of the 2nd Asian Music & Dance Fest are 1) Best Dance Solo, Cammy Jiang (Little Lotus Co.) for a Dai orTai Dance, one of the 56 ethnic minorities located in Southwest China, similar to Lao & Thai.

2) Best Group Dance, Nepali Dance by Sharmeela & Josheda Tamang, Susmita Gurug & Champa Rai.It is a dance about happiness. A girl rejoices in her Creator, while admiring the beauty of the country around her, (Nepal which has the highest mountain in the world the lofty Mt. Everest). It inspires her to dance and she wants to fly over the blue sky and white clouds.

3). Best Voice Solo, is 7-year-old Christian Antonio, who did a mash-up of "Here Comes the Sun" and" Pinoy Ako", singing and playing the ukelele ( selftaught).

4) Best Music Solo is Chelsea Wang, who played a Chinese melody on the Gu Zheng (Chinese zither).

5) Best Music Group Prize went to the GVA of the Charlotte International Church. Nicole Bonilla and Jazzmin Zamora sang and danced a modern rap number, which proved popular with the crowd.

6) The Judges Choice Award went to the Sahaj School of Dance, led by

Asian cultures represented in Charlotte encompass over 13 nations.

One of the missions of the CAACC is to unite all of these groups to better service the public. Asian history spans thousands of years and its culture is rich and diverse. The CAACC strives to provide business opportunities and to promote business activities through cultural events, such as the annual Asian Festival & Dragon Boat Races each spring and Asian celebrations in the Fall that display our resources and share with you our ethnic qualities.

Forty five years ago, there were less than 200 Asians and only 8 Asian businesses in the Regional Charlotte Area, but this number has grown to 72,000 Asians and 1,150 businesses directly involved with Asians. Considering average gross sales of $630,000 a year per business, the Asian population of this area is generating $725 million in revenues, contributing greatly to the regional economy. We invite you to join the CAACC for unique resources, and then cross the bridge between the East and the West.■ Dr. Ki-Hyun Chun (Founder & the first President)

With pastel pink parasols,"Jiangnan Rain", a Chinese Folk song/ Dance. Jane Zhang was the choreographer & leader.

The GVA of CIC earlier danced a modern fusion, with three dancers competing.

It is very encouraging to note that most of the participants for the cultural country programs are big groups of younger people and kids who enthusiastically perform, and are proud to share their culture. That is one of the purposes of the Asian Festival, to provide a platform and an opportunity where each country can showcase & share, develop, preserve and enhance their cultural heritage, especially among the next generation. Furthermore, an appreciative audience, as can be found at the Asian Festivals, can only inspire the participants to try harder at perfecting their art. Many are grateful for this yearly opportunity to perform and share with

Miss Asia Carolinas to include a wider age group, and now the Asian Music & Dance Fest, to embrace all talented Asian Americans of all sexes, of all ages.

We have a long list of people who have helped the Asian Festivals, the Charlotte Dragon Boat Festival, the Miss Asian Festival, the Miss Asia Carolinas, The Asian Music & Dance Fest, the Country Cultural Showcase, the Country Cultural Program, the food booths, the marketplace, and the non food booths.

Maybe the list is too long to include here, but we are very sure you know who you are, wherever you maybe now. We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

We will be remiss if we do not thank the hard working volunteers who made things happen, and the generous sponsors who made it possible- AXA Equitable Insurance, Arts & Science

the community at large, their unique cultural gifts. The community celebration of our cultural identity reinforces our sense of pride, and empowers the whole Asian community.

Thus we thank all those who have been consistently participating throughout our 18 years of history, sharing our struggles, rejoicing in our victories, patiently standing by us while we morph through the changing times, from the Ms Asian Festival of the very young, then to

Council, Bank of American, Belk, Charlotte Landing, Chun Group, Corning Optical Communications, Duke Energy, Food Lion, Greer Walker, IngersollRand, Matador Energy Drink, Novant Health, Wells Fargo, Winstead Attorneys.

FACC Recognizes Filipino Teachers When the original 500 American teachers sent to the Philippines by the American colonial government arrived on 21 August 1901 aboard the USS Thomas, little did they know that after a century, or so, the descendants of their students will return the favor, and come to the US to teach the much-needed science and math in their schools. These Thomasites, as these American pioneer teachers who came in

Banos. (UP Main, was founded in Manila on June 18, 1908., transferred to Diliman in 1948.) Delia Rice was the Founder of the School of the Deaf in 1907 & the Filipino Sign Language., Charles John Anderson founded the Indang Cavite State University, A V H Hartendorf was the Founder Publisher of the Philippine Magazine. Hattie Grove was the English teacher of the world famous statesman,

several waves, were collectively known, helped expand the public education system established in 1863 by the Spaniards, switching to English as the medium of instruction. Prior to that the US Army, after the horrendous Filipino American war (4 Feb 1989 to 4 Jul 1902, which is rarely mentioned in our history books, as it left millions of Filipino non-combatant civilians massacred),established the first public school on Corregidor Island, followed by a small contingent of teachers on the USS Sheridan. The President Taft Commission established the Department of Instruction, and deployed 1,000 more teachers, who were assigned all over the Philippines, from Aparri to Jolo.

There are some notable Thomasites who founded schools where some of the Filipino teachers graduated, and who are now in the CMS system.

These are the Philippine Normal School, now a University, Alma Mater of Gloria Grifenhagen & Del Fallar. Philippine School of Arts & Trade, now the Technical University of the Philippines.

Edwin Copeland was the Founder of the University of the Philippines in Los

Carlos P. Romulo, journalist & author, & was the First Secretary-General of the UN. The Thomasites converted the Philippines into the third largest English speaking nation in the world. They became the precursor of the present day US Peace Corps volunteers, like William Grifenhagen, husband of Glo and Lesley Romero wife of Alex.

The FACC recognizing the important contributions of these Filipino teachers, recruited directly from the Philippines, in filling the critical gap for educators in science, math, physics, etc. in our school systems, honored them for National Teachers Appreciation Day, which is the Tuesday of the 1st full week of May (or May 9, 2017). It was Eleanor Roosevelt who persuaded the 81st US Congress to proclaim a National Teachers Day. Congress declared March 7, 1980 as National Teachers Day, but the National PTA changed it to its present date of observance.

The teachers honored by the Filipino American community led by the FACC Board of Directors on May 20, 2017 at the Asian Library were:

Mirasol Samson Abogi, Ridge Road Middle School, Liza D.Capacia, South Mecklenburg High School, Dr. Tereso Casino, Gardner-Webb University, Adelia Fallar, Charlotte Mecklenburg School retired Head Teacher,Cynthia"Cindy" Bacalzo Germaine, Huntersville Elementry School, Gloria Cagadas Grifenhagen, Charlotte Mecklenburg School retiree, Dr. Lorene Pagcaliwagan,GardnerWebb University, Raymond Anthony Quan, Garinger High School, Cielo A. Sides, Christian Montessori School of Lake Norman, Cristina Sloan, Huntingtowne Farms Elementary School, Roditha Lourdes Fuentes Terado, Harding University High School, Edwin Tranquilino, Harding University High School, Myra Tranquilino, Lincoln Charter.

Special mention was made of the teachers of the Eskuwelahang Munti of Charlotte for the teaching of Tagalog & Filipino culture, founded by Glo Grifenhagen with the help of Dr.Nini Bautista, Chairman of FAS, Del Fallar, Guia Villapando, Sherr T. Siplon, ( Dr. Chris Villapando helped

get a grant for EM.Other teachers are Luz Taboada, Grace Basilan, for special cultural topics- Wally Penilla, Florami Lee, Paul Amigo, Dr. Chris V, Jo Kocak, etc.)

The honorees were given gift cards and art tiles lovingly made by the FACC Board of Directors under the tutelege of artist/ designer/art teacher Edelweiss de Guzman, FACC Vice President.

A very interactive program featured an opening remarks by Prexy Susan Dennis, then an inspirational talk by Del Fallar,

who challenged the honorees with thought provoking questions: "Why did you choose teaching" and "What do teachers make?"

The response from the honorees was made

by Glo Grifenhagen, CMS retiree & EM DIrectress, who was the first Filipino teacher in CMS ( in the 1970's) She gave a deep insight of what a teacher is, and quoted a poem.

It was heartwarming to see the young Fil Am students participate in honoring the educators. Emcee Ro Lawsin, VP, was assisted by Jason Ave 9th Grader ( Mallard Creek HS); Ashley Faye Perez, 11th Grader( Rocky River HS) sang the Philippine National Anthem, Duchess Ave., NC State U senior, did the US Star Spangled Banner; Natalie Claire Lawsin, 4th Grader ( Langtree Charter) read a poem; Justine Patricia Estanislao,12 Grader(Hopewell HS) read a testimonial letter, and the young daughters of Doreen danced the Bulaklakan wth Florami Lee. Families of the honorees, guests and FACC members were treated to a sumptuous merienda buffet prepared by the FACC Board members & their spouses, Sec. Carllyn& Jaypee Ave, Treas Yulie Armstrong, J. Andrew Arlegui, Doreen Reynolds,Tonette Asay, Beth Rothermund.

Other Board members are Jyoti Friedland, Miah Price, & Cip Onia.

Thank you to all these teachers, for all that they do in improving the American educational system, with their knowledge, patience, great work ethics, bringing honor not only to themselves, but also to the whole Philippines, Wishing you all more success in all your endeavors.

Many thanks too, to FACC for recognizing these heroes and she-roes that make a huge difference in the lives of so many.

Candle Light Vigils to Demand AHOK Release Charlotte Indonesian Community held candle light vigil on May 20th 2017 in front of Asian Library at 6 PM. We gathered together to declare our solidarity and to demand for the release of Mr. Basuki Tjahaja Purnama or Ahok.

He has been unjustly accused and jailed for violating the blasphemy law. This unjustly ruling is very significant not only for Indonesia but also for the world.

Ahok is the first governor of Jakarta that comes from minority group. He was unjustly accused by the court for his speech that implied disrespect to the Quranic verse. Despite his speech been edited, the court still found him guilty. The court decision is definitely swayed by the huge mob protest. Since the case started, the anti Ahok supporters kept pressuring the court by holding huge mass demonstrations. These demonstrations occurred every month since October 2016 to pressure the court to put Ahok

in jail. Apparently, the court gave in to the mob demand. The court even sentenced Ahok with harsher punishment than what the prosecutor asked for.

The conviction of Ahok, an innocence governor with proven track record in fighting corruption and upholding pluralism values, will spell trouble for all Indonesians. This sentence means

that anybody with enough money to pay mobs to hold mass rallies is above the law in Indonesia. If the Indonesian law does not work for a national hero such as Ahok, a popular governor

the 4th largest population and 19th largest economy, the world cannot afford for Indonesia to turn into a radical religious state. The world along with the Indonesians in the US have

known for his social policies, the to joint hand together to protest this Indonesian law system will be nothing unjustly sentence and to demand the but empty writings. Without a just law, why should anybody respect the national constitution anymore. Our

constitution is the only pillar that holds the country together. No wonder, many Indonesians believe that Ahok unjustly conviction is a direct threat to the existence of Indonesia as a country.

This ruling is also affected us in the US. Indonesia is the largest Muslim country in the world. The sentencing of Ahok is viewed as victory by the religious radicals in Indonesia. With

court to free Ahok from jail.

May 20th candle light vigil symbolized our conviction and solidarity with Ahok. For more information, please contact Mr. Robbynson Suy at (704)712-7477.

June 2017 (8) Book Review - Lim Chul Woo

FAREWELL VALLEY Divided into four seasons, each represented by a different character, Farewell Valley, is a novel, or four short stories, with death and suffering as recurring themes. The longest chapter is set during World War II, when the central character is sent to Manchuria as a comfort woman. The novel is arranged with intertwining plots and subplots, with a central character Tongsu Chong, a young train station attendant and aspiring poet.

In Autumn, Tongsu has become a minor celebrity when the National Railway Newsletter published a few of his poems. He and the other two station attendants are aware of the rumor that the station in this tiny village will close.

Modern high speed railways are being built to connect major cities, bypassing, the little places like Farewell Valley.

Tongsu is haunted by not knowing his father. At night he writes poems. His days are routinely filled by the simple duties at the station, along with station master Yang, and another attendant, Taemuk Shin.

In Summer, the old attendant Taemuk Shim finds his insomnia getting worse. In the dark, lying awake, the past comes to visit.

The ghosts of the past rise up in the darkness. He was eight when the Korean War broke out. That winter, he lost his family as they were fleeing. He slept well later, surprisingly, during his military conscription.

The days are not much better.

He could be walking to work and suddenly his dead wife haunts him.

Shin clutches his tight chest. He feels guilty for the chain of events that destroyed his wife and family.

Decades earlier Shin worked the Chechon City Station. A young man drunk, accidentally falls on the tracks.

He was a minor with a wife and baby daughter. Despite warnings, Shin attended the young man's funeral.

Sometime, later, a young

woman and daughter are wandering around the Chechon Station. Shin knows them, the widow and child of the young minor. He takes pity and offers to protect them. They live together and eventually marry. It is a strained relationship. When the woman finds out who Shin is, she goes crazy and kills herself.

In Winter, a bag lady wanders around the village. She has lost the use of her left arm from the beatings she received in Manchuria as a 16-

bridges, and in train stations.

Tongsu meets Sullye's niece, Miss Park who tells him the continuing plight of the comfort women. "There's one common thing all the comfort women share: Guilt.

They feel ashamed above having their bodies defiled, so they feel a great sense of guilt toward their parents, siblings and children. Just because they are women. The perpetrators don't remember anything at all. But the victims live with the guilt every day for the rest of their lives, and they live in pain. It's totally unfair."

In Spring, across from the station a woman has opened a bakery.

Why such a poor spot for such a good business venture? Did she get fooled by the realtor Mr. Park? She is haunted by a past event during the Korean War. And the young station attendant, Tongsu, is strangely a part of her dreams. She does not recall ever having met him before. Was there some fate that made her come to this little village? The young station attendant reminds her so much of a soldier she knew as a girl.

Author Chul Woo Lim is skillful, offering real and symbolic imagery. He has a penchant for butterflies as manifestations of hope in times of personal despair.

The pace is deliberately slow and restrained, only to rise to an year old comfort woman. She lives emotional pitch in the Winter's tale of in a small house at the foot of the an old former comfort woman and her mountains.

The broken glass in traumatic past. The author divides the window is replaced with cheap, clear vinyl to keep the bitter wind out. The woman, Sullye, remembers the Japanese soldiers. The Korean soldiers were just as stupid and brutal.

She makes a daily walk to a lonely Any interested people bench by the station. Sometimes, who wish to participate people approach and ask if she is OK. Mr. Yang tells Tongsu that the old woman used to be a comfort Call 704-334-3450 woman. Sullye survived the war.

She married a North Korean when the country she knew was cut in two.

Later, she drifted south, roaming from place to place. She slept in the mountains, in the fields, under

the four interlocking tales by specific seasons, interacting characters, and overlapping narratives. The tone is somber.

For most of the characters, Farewell Valley is an out-of-the-way place or state of mind, in the final chapter of their lives. As the rumors of the station closing spread, the characters seemed resigned to quietly fade away. Only the young station attendant and developing poet will leave, and write about this little place.

The author was born in Wan Island, South Cholla province, in 1954. He earned his M.A. in English literature from Sogang University and is Ph.D. from Chonnam University.

He began publishing in 1981.

Farwell Valley (2011) earned the Daesan Literary Award. He major work Spring Day, a five-volume work of fiction, recounts the Kwangju Massacre. He was familiar with that event since he was a student in Kwangju at the time of the massacre.

His thematic writings constantly challenge the state's official historiography.

Translators Jennifer Lee and Jonathan Bagley are frequent translators of contemporary Korean literature. Much can be said about the importance of literary translations from two languages that have no similar grammatical, syntactical, and culture bases. The translators are to commended for translations that articulate a range of human emotions, thoughts, and actions.

Dimple for Charlotte city, our economy, our culture, and our spirit.

June 2017 (9)

American serve as a City Council AtLarge representative. When Vi Lyles decided to run for mayor, it created a vacancy in our Democratic At Large slate. Community leaders and my constituents strongly encouraged me We have an opportunity to make to run for that office. Many of them history by having the first Asian reached out to me, saying they wanted me to continue representing them in our municipal government. I listened with great humility, and I’ve accepted the challenge to extend my vision of economic mobility and opportunity from the East side to all of Charlotte.

I’m looking forward to earning your support, and I am excited to have the chance to continue to serve as a voice for the people and to make history together. Thank you so much.

Dimple Ajmera

I have been very blessed to have strong support from Asian American leaders like Dr. Ki Hyun Chun and his wife Sunny, Dr. John Chen, Nimish Bhatt, and many more. These folks have really helped pave the way for me and the younger generations to move forward and take leadership roles in our fields, where we have the privilege of representing Asian Americans. It’s an honor to be held up by so many trailblazers.

About 50 years ago, there were less than 200 Asian Americans in Charlotte, with only eight businesses owned by our community in the Charlotte region.

Asian Americans have transformed our

When it comes to economic transformation, Asian Americans have created jobs and opportunities.

Asian Americans have contributed to innovation in technology, medicine, finance and accounting, engineering, real estate, transportation, and many other sectors. Today, our community has grown to 72,000 Asian Americans!

We have 1,150 business owners and we generate more than $700 million in revenues. We should be proud.

Another transformation I see coming is a political one. We’ve got some work to do in this area. Despite being 72,000 strong, Asian Americans have yet to see representation that reflects our numbers in local politics.

Gardens' a Chinese Lantern Festival Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden to Host Festival

Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden to host festival of hundreds of larger-than-life lanterns beginning September 7 BELMONT, N.C. – Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden invites guests to explore Asian culture during the Chinese Lantern Festival to be held Wednesday through Sunday, for eight weeks from Sept. 7 through

largest exhibition to date and hundreds of lanterns will fill more than 12 acres.

Living arts further enhance the Chinese Lantern Festival.

Guests will marvel at Kung Fu shows, savor Asian food and browse the marketplace that features authentic Chinese folk art and crafts. All this surrounded by the lush Garden

Oct. 29 from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. each evening. Tickets are now available at www.DSBG.org.

We may call these “lanterns,” but make no mistake - these are not hand-held, candle-lit lamps. From humble beginnings of silk and paper, the Chinese lantern has evolved into the wondrous shapes and sizes of the Chinese Lantern Festival.

Enter “The Wild,” a world of life-size (sometimes larger than life) illuminated panda bears, lions, flamingoes and more fauna from the world’s seven continents. Each of the lanterns is made by masters of the craft in Zigong, China’s center of lantern heritage.

Others are made of small glass medicine bottles filled with colored liquid. Arranged in the shape of dragons, peacocks, and giant pearls, they glimmer like crystal rainbows. It’s Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden’s

featuring an all-new Asianinspired display that was installed this spring and will be in place throughout the year.

Japanese maples, bamboo, grasses, iris, ferns and more are pulled together to develop the display that also features other traditional Asian elements such as rock and raked sand.

Throughout autumn, the Garden will offer continuing education classes for adults, programs for schools and home schools, guided tours for groups and much more. Join us on Wednesday, Oct. 4 from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. for the Mid-Autumn Festival, a traditional Asian event that celebrates the moon.

Visitors can enjoy familyfriendly activities and sample a traditional a moon cake. MidAutumn Festival is free with festival admission.

샬롯 한인회 소식

The News of Korean Association

이번 일일 식당은 한인회를 늘 support 하는 G-Mart 에서 쇠고기 150 파운드를 donation 해서 수고하는 임원들이 더욱 신나게 일을 할 수 있었다. 전승현 한인회장은

The Asian Herald 에는 월남 협회 회장이 Booth 에서 직접 월남을 소개하고 있어서 본지 발행인 전기현박사 부부와 나성균 샬롯교회 목사님이 함께 기념 촬영을 했다.

샬롯상공회아시안 FESTIVAL 및 DRAGON BOAT 경기에 참가 미국에서 계절의 왕 5월은 Asian Heritage Month 로 지정해서 아시안들에게는 기쁜 달이고 많은 축제가 있는 달이다. 본지 발행인 전기현 박사가 1998 년에 시작한 Carolina 아시안 상공회의 봄 축제가 5월13일에 RAMSEY CREEK PARK 에서 제 18회 축제를 성대하게 가졌다. 샬롯 한인회에서는 2달의 준비와 12 명의 임원 및 자원봉사들이 한국을

알리고 소개하는 이 축제에 1 일식당을 그리고 KOREA BOOTH 를 열어서 참석한 모두에게 한국을 잘 알렸다. 아시안 상공회를 1998년에 시작해서 1999년 5 월 첫 토요일에 아시안 축제 1회를 시작 할때는 아시아 나라들이생소하기만 했지만 이 festival 로 샬롯 주류사회에 아시아를 알리는 좋은 기회가 되었고 The Asian Herald 는 샬롯 지역에 동양과 서양을 연결하는 다리 (Bridge) 의 역할을 잘 감당하게 되었다. 아시아인들이 뭉쳐서 미국 주류사회에 동참하며 또한 각 나라의 장점을 잘 살려 후손들에게도 도전을 주기위해서 전기현 박사는 뜻있는 샬롯지역의 지도자들 특히 중국 유지들과 월남, 라오스, 몽 등의 지도자들과 캐롤라이나 아시안 상공회의를 출발했었다. 그후 Miss Carolina Asia 대회가

더해 지면서 각 아시안들의 전통적인 아름다움을 소개하고 장학금 및 각 지역사회가 더욱 가까와 지며 첫 festival에 약 8,000명 정도 참석했던 인원이 매년 2-3 천명정도 증가 했으며 아시안 헤럴드 매해 6 월의 front page 는 3명의 미스 캐롤라이나 아시아가 실렸다.

Festival 6 회 부터는 드라곤 보트 경주가 시작 되었는데 이때부터는 아시안 festival 이 아닌 샬롯 축제가

되었다. 세계적으로 잘 알려진 이 드라곤 보트 경주는 22명이 조가되어 상호 협조가 잘이루어 져야 경주를 할 수 있는 스포츠여서 샬롯의 스포츠에 관심이 있는 젊은이들 뿐 아니라 중년층이 대거 참석하게 되어 중요 뱅커들-Bank of America, WellsFargo, Novant Hospital, Harris Teeter, Food Lion 등 큰 기업에서 이 축제를 돕고 경주 참가에도 큰 몫을 차지하고 있다. 샬롯 한인회에서는 올해부터 일 일 식당을 하면서 이 축제에 참가하게 되었는데 12명의 한인회 임원들이 많은 정성과 수고를 했으며 한인회의 활동을 위한 큰 모금을 거둔 날이 되었다. 이날 메뉴는 불고기, 치킨윙, 돼지 갈비, French Fries 였는데 모든 음식이 날개 도친듯이 팔렸고 약 700명이상이 한국 음식을 사서 먹고 기다리는 긴 줄과 올라오는 갈비 굽는 연기와 맛있는 냄새가 진 풍경이었다.

올해를 경험삼아 내년에는 know how 를 잘 사용해서 한인회가 더 많이 장사를 잘해서 더 많은 사람들에게 한인회가 도음을 주도록 노력 하겠다고 말 했다. 홀해는 약 2만여 명이 festival 에

이번대회에는 고등학교 연말시험과 함께 대학가는 졸업식이 겹쳤기 때문에 Miss Carolina 미인대회는 생략했지만 음악 장기자랑 - Voice, 악기 및 댄스 경연대회를 성대히 가졌다. 이번 댄스, 음악 경기의

참석했고 각 나라 Booth 가 있어서 각 나라를 제 나름대로 소개 하고 간단한 선물도 준비했다. 한국을 소개하는 booth 에는 드라마도 TV 로 소개 했는데 본인들이 그 드라마를 보았다고 하는 사람들이 많은데는 놀라왔다. 주변에 월남협회 Booth

심사의원님들은 모두 non Asian 들이 수고 했는데 댄스의 1위는 Dance solo 로 Cammy Jiang(Little Lotus Co.)-Dai or Tai dance, 성악 1등은 7살 Christian Antonio 가 "Here Comes the Sun" & Pinoy Ako" 를 혼자 배운 유클렐레를

치면서 불렀다.

1등 구룹음악 상은 GVA of the Charlotte International 교회에서 차지 했는데 노래와 모던 댄스는 청중들의 많은 인기를 차지 했다. 각 분야에서 1 2 3 등이 주어졌고

여러 댄스팀들이 참가해서 각 나라의 전통 무요을 보였는데 Little Lotus Company 의 샬송 지도선생의 창의성있는 무용지도는 어린 아이들에게 중국 전통무용을 계승하는 지도력은 놀라울 정도인

보람을 느낀다고 한다. 그리고 이 공연장에 와서 열광하는 관중과 그들의 진지한 태도의 관심을 보고 느끼면서 공연하는 젊은이들은 더욱 자기들의 연주나 공연이 완벽하게 되도록 열심을 다 한다고 한다. 이 아시안 축제에 참가하는 모든 사람들은 이러한 기회를 갖게 해 준 캐롤라이나 상공회에 감사를 표하는데 이런 기회를 통하여 자기들의 뿌리를 의식하게되고 자랑스러운 전통을 즐기고

June 2017 (19) 소중하게 지켜갈 수 있기 때문이다. 이 Festival 을 위해 많은 경비를 부담해서 돕는 기관과 개인들께 감사하며 60 명이 넘는 자원봉사원들의 아시안 커뮤니티를 사랑하는 저들에게 감사를 드린다. 자원봉사인원들의 헌신으로 이러한 Festival 을 치를 수 있었다.

19년전에 Carolina 상공회를 시작한 본지 전기현 박사의 비전은 그 열매가 지금 많이 달리고 있는 아름다움을 보는 것 같은 흐믓한 마음일 것이다.

The Church’s News

샬롯 한인장로교회 담임: 나성균 목사 삶을 나누는 구역예배 소개 담임목사의 철저한 제자훈련을 통하여 이 시대의 참된 예수님의 제자로 삶을 더욱 정예화하며, 역동적으로 삶과 전도와 선교를 힘쓰게 되는 교회로 부흥 발전케 되도록 하는 목회철학을 따라, 지난 4

월 22일 토요일에는 모처럼 시차를 두고 6구역, 1구역, 3구역이 좀더 시간을 내어 화기애애한 가운데 오늘의 양식을 따라 느헤미야의 아닥사스다왕 앞에서의 묵상 기도를 드린 다음에 왕께 대답한 내용대로 기도를 본받아 기도의 간증을 나누며 죽음과 커다란 역경에서 건져주신 주님의 기도응답을 받았음을 소개하며 혹은 눈물이 글썽이기도하며 감격으로 뜨거운 주님을 기억하는 정말 이시대 바쁨의 와중에서 맛보기 어려운 삶을 나누는

현장을 체험케 되었다. 담임목사는 앞으로도 각구역을 순회하면서 이렇게 삶을 나누는 구역예배의 역동성을 더욱 소개하며 체험코자 한다.

기르면서 경험한 바를 종합하여 이시대 최고의 자녀로 기르는 기독교교육의 실제에 대하여 강의함으로 많은 반향을 일으켰다.

"자녀들아 너희 부모를 주 안에서 순종하라 이것이 옳으니라 .... 네가 잘되고 장수하리라" 성경말씀은 자녀들에게 더욱 큰 가르침이 되었다.

KIMNET 쿠바 선교전략 탐사 투어 2017년 5월 2일(화) – 4일( 목)까지 Billy Graham 수양관 (The Cove, Ashville, NC)에서 KIMNET(세계선교동역네트웍: 대표회장 호성기 목사)의 “Korean World Mission Summit” 이 열렸다. 이번 모임은 KIMNET 15주년을 맞이 하면서 그 동안 기도와 성원을 해 주신 이사님 내외분을 초청하여 감사의

뜻을 전하며, 상임대표 최일식 목사님과 공동회장/본부장 전기현 장로님께서 이사 부부를 모시고 함께 교제하며 휴식하는 시간을 마련 하였으며, 이번 기회를 통하여 한국 선교 및 KIMNET 미래의 새로운 비전과 전망을 나누었다. 아울러 한국과 미국 선교단체 및 미국 기독실업인이 참석하여 세계선교에 대한 협력 방안들을 함께 나누는 시간도 가졌다.

첫날인 2일(화) 저녁에는 정석천 선교사(태국)의 선교지

사역보고와 신동우 목사(KWMA 이사장)의 설교로 개회 예배가 시작 되었다.

June 2017 (21)

오전에는 ‘한국선교의 현제와 미래’ 란 주제로 황성주 박사 (국제 사랑의 봉사단 이사장, KWMA 회장)가, ‘Patnership in Mission’ 주제로 Woody McClendon(JAARS 대표), Matt

통제하고 운영하고 있어, 많지 않은 호텔, 관광버스, 상점, 식당 등을 사용 하기에는 불편 하였다.
