Jamjari is a Korean DAMSELFLY
She is the Tiny Virtue Hero of Dilignence
Jamjari, the DAMSELFLY is the Tiny Virtue Hero of DILIGENCE. We imagine Jamjari as the storyteller of an incredible real life Mission Virtue Hero: Anna Pak A-gi from Korea. Anna was a loving wife and mother to five children at a time when believers in Jesus were put in prison, and suffered painfully for their faith. Many people tried to convince Anna to deny her love for Jesus in order to be set free from jail. But Anna’s heart was diligently set on eternal life with Jesus in Heaven. Jamjari invites all of us to be persistent in our effort to love Jesus, without fear, even if it means we must give up our life on earth, like Anna did…. to live FOREVER with Jesus in Heaven!
