The trend toward the Church is
beginning to assume stable pro-

1,037 adult converts will be con-
siderably exceeded this year, judg-

That the 'blood of martyrs is the
seed of Christians" today as well
as when the Church was in the
catacombs, is shown by the amaz-
ing progress of Hampyong parish.
The first Catholics ir Hampyong

of the Japanese police. AS cate

cause of their contact with a for

Secution the community suffered.
The Reds burned the church, a
new building that had been used
only twice for Mass. They killed
and imprisoned many. The pastor,
Father Paul Kim, escaped by hid

of the space. He lay there for Is

said. Father Kim baptized them,
but the Reds came searching be-

them. They killed his brother.
For the past two years, the Cath.
olics of Hampyong had to assist at
Mass in the open air, even during
the freezing winter months. Re-
Gently the church was rebuilt. On
Holy Saturday, Father Kim bap-
tized 158 adult converts. 1t was a
big change since the day of 1887.
