    Family of Syngman Rhee request prayers – with updates

    January 9, 2015 by The Presbyterian Outlook

    The family of Syngman Rhee have requested prayers following his hospitalization due to an aggressive cancer.

    Rhee currently serves on the board of the Outlook. He is former moderator of the 212th General Assembly (2000) of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), president (1992-1993) of the National Council of Churches, and director of the Asian-American Ministry and Mission Center (1998-2011) at Union Presbyterian Seminary in Richmond, Virginia. Currently, he is the distinguished visiting professor for global leadership development at Columbia Theological Seminary.
