PRAYER MEETING FOR THE WOUNDED SOUL
# Thou art the treasure that I seek
# Thou art my All in All
# I seek Thee as a precious stone
# At Thy side, I'm ne'er alone
# Thou art my All in All
# Jesus, Lamb of God!
# Hallowed be Thy name!
# Our Savior's blood brings us..
#.. one step closer to Thy embrace
# Thy sacrifice brings us..
#.. one step closer to God's grace
# Our Savior's blood..
#.. brings us..
#.. one step closer to..
#.. Thy embrace
# Our Savior's precious blood..
#.. rejuvenates my soul
# Our Savior's precious blood..
#.. rejuvenates my soul
Lord, who guides our hearts..
Lord, who touches us..
Lord, who rejuvenates us..
We wait for Thy blessing.
Lord, who releases us from our pain..
pour Your most precious love..
into us.
Oh, Lord!
Free our hearts from..
the binds that tie them.
Oh, Lord!
Please heal..
the pain in our hearts!
Miss Kim..
Aren't you wearing a bra?
Yes, I am.
Of course she is!
Then what are those bumps there?
They're buttons, aren't they?
Who'd sew buttons there?
And those stockings?
Buy me a new pair!
Want a new pair from me, honey?
Isn't that a Bible?
Mind your own business! I'll be back!
What's bugging him?
I never understood..
the meaning of "born again"
But now I really do.
When I met Deaconess Kim, she said..
there is more in the world than we can see.
There are also things we cannot see.
When I heard those words..
I didn't take them seriously.
But now..
I know in my heart they're true.
I've been feeling..
an agonizing pressure on my heart.
Now it has gone!
I have gained peace.
I now truly believe..
that whatever happens..
comes to pass by God's will.
Thank you.
Our sister Shin-ae has found the Lord.
She has accepted the Holy Spirit.
How grateful we are for His grace!
He has given salvation to a lamb in pain.
How thankful we are!
Our Lord is here!
He is here with us now.
Let us praise the Lord who saves us and abides with us.
Let's be thankful for His grace.
And sing Hymn 253.. Hymn 253.
Let's clap as we praise the Lord!
# The door to salvation..
#.. is narrow
# The path to life..
#.. is rocky
# So we must cast off..
#.. the filthy burden of our sins
# Shake them from our backs..
#.. and march forward
What kind of parking is this? Fuckin' hell..
This is ridiculous!
Look at this car, look at the way..
The driver must be a real..
I'd like to see his face.
Is this your car? You can't just park..
Why are you here?
What about you?
I'm.. a parking volunteer for the church.
You go to church?
I'm trying to be a good boy now.
See you later.
You owe me a drink!
Mr Kim!
Shin-ae.. you're here.
Why are you coming to church?
That's a hard one to answer.
Why come to church?
I want to believe!
Really? No other reason?
You've got me all wrong.
I do have faith in God.
You do? Can you swear to it?
Eh?
Can you swear before God?
God is watching us right now.
So, can you swear you have faith?
# Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine
# Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine
# Heir of salvation, purchase of God
# Born of His spirit, washed in His blood
# This is my story..
#.. this is my song
# Praising my Savior..
#.. all the day long
June Piano, frankly I don't get it..
You keep saying you're happy,
but what makes you happy?
Well, it's..
something I just feel.
It's like being in love.
You're happy to know there's someone always thinking of you.
God loves me and watches over me.
I feel it every moment, deeply..
and it gives me so much happiness.
I wish I were in love!
Then come with me! You can fall in love..
and your hubby won't be jealous!
Don't be shy!
Okay, I'll come.
But not right away.
Later, when my in-laws pass away.
Then I can skip their sacrificial rites!
That won't do!
That's no reason to go to church!
Come on..
Think ahead a bit!
It's not for my own sake.
For whose, then?
For my kids! To make their life easier!
Are you serious?
What great kids they'll turn out to be!
So you go for love..
And you go to skip rites!
# He lived and died to buy my pardon
# An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives
# Because He lives..
#.. I can face tomorrow
# Because He lives..
#.. all fear is gone
# Because I know He holds the future
# And life is worth the living just because He lives
Gotta hand it to you, man.. Going to church for a woman!
Singing outside the station!
So how's it going? Getting there?
You got it all wrong,
it's not like that.
Oh yeah?
Last Sunday I climbed Mt Jiri..
I bared my chest..
and dropped my pants..
to absorb Qi for you!
And it's all gone to waste!
It wasn't even the first time.
I did it on Mt Naejang..
and on Mt Halla.
I tanked up on Qi, all for your sake..
And then I forgot to pass it on to you!
I've got enough of my own, asshole!
I'm going up Mt Sorak next week.
You want some Qi from there?
It'll be too crowded to collect any!
Reminds me of smoking behind the bike-sheds.. it tastes that good!
Our Father which art in heaven.
Hallowed be Thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts.
Hee-jung, don't do that while I'm driving.
Sit tight, okay?
We're there!
Bye, Ki-beom!
You too, Hee-jung!
Sorry, I'm running late..
Bye!
You think you're smart?
Well, do you?
Drop your hand!
Answer me!
Don't fuck with me!
I'm very sorry.
What's wrong with you?
Sorry, I just blanked.
You call that driving?
- I'm very sorry. - "Sorry" isn't good enough!
You might have killed someone!
Don't stare at me!
# You were born to be loved
# You feel that life-long love
# The love of Our Lord, as old as time itself
# Brought to earth in our company
# Having you here with us..
#.. brings us so much joy
The best-dressed should present the bouquet.
I felt I should dress up.. It's an honor.
Congratulations.
It's lovely.
Thank you all so much.. I forgot it was my birthday.
There's something I want to tell you.
On the way here, I made a decision.
I'm going to visit the prison this weekend.
The prison? Why?
Someone I know is inside.
The man who killed my son.
Why do you want to see him?
To forgive him.
He gave me so much pain..
But God tells us to love and forgive our enemies.
Mrs Lee, you are astonishing!
You really need to see him to forgive him?
I do.
I need to go myself..
to tell him I've forgiven him.
And to spread God's love.
It's not easy..
to forgive.
The hardest commandment..
to observe faithfully..
is the one to love thine enemy.
It's been in my mind for some time, Reverend.
Since I allowed God into my life..
I've been wondering how..
I could show my gratitude.
Mrs Lee, may God be with you.
Now, let us pray together.
Lord, Our Father, I thank you.
For being with us..
and guiding us day by day.
So that we may follow Thy words.
Father..
To repay you for..
enduring the cross for our salvation..
I thank You for giving us the courage to forgive others.
Father..
May Your amazing glory..
shine with our faith
Guide us..
to fulfillment in Thy glory.
We thank you, and pray in the name of Jesus Christ.
Amen.
Let us bless each other..
I love and bless you..
Shin-ae, I will pray for you.
Thank you.. Wish me luck.
- Have a safe trip. - I'll pray for you.
Thank you.
Who's driving you?
Mr Kim said he would.
Well, that's no surprise.
Mrs Lee..
Wish me luck.. Don't worry.
I'll pray for you.
Yes, thank you.
This doesn't feel right.
What doesn't?
Can't you just forgive him?
Going to the prison to forgive him in person..
It just doesn't seem necessary.
You're not a saint, you know.
So you don't want to drive us there?
I didn't say that.
I'd love to take you on a drive, just the two of us..
It won't be just we two.
Mrs Oh and Mrs Park will come too.
Really?
So..
are you taking us or not?
Let's go! Whatever you say..
Come on, let's go!
How do they bring prisoners here? By car?
Well, they certainly don't walk here!
Lee Sun-ha.
Visitors for Jung Sung-hoon.
No. 6153, Row 27, Cell 1.
Kim Jung-min.
Visitor for Lee Jong-ku No. 6405, Row 27, Cell 2.
Lee Shin-ae.
Visitor for Park Do-seob..
No. 6012, Row 27, Cell 3.
Please come to the waiting room.
Be strong!
Good luck!
You look better than I expected.
I'm sorry.
No, you should be well.
God gives good health to even the worst of sinners.
These flowers..
I picked them by the road on the way here.
It must be hard to see flowers in this place.
Pretty, aren't they?
These flowers are also gifts from God.
The reason I've come here..
is to spread God's grace and love.
I never knew such things.
I couldn't believe in God.
I couldn't see Him, so I didn't believe.
But..
through my Jun..
I learned of God's love.
I found peace and a new life.
I'm so thankful..
and so happy to feel God's love and grace.
That's why I came.
To spread His love.
Thank you.
I truly thank you.
Hearing from you..
about Our Lord..
makes me truly thankful.
I too have gained faith.
Since I came here, I have accepted God in my heart.
The Lord has reached out to this sinner.
Is that so?
It's good you have found God.
Yes, I am so grateful.
God reached out to a sinner like me.
He made me kneel to repent my sins.
And God has absolved me of them.
God..
has forgiven your sins?
Yes, after I repented in tears..
And I have found inner peace.
I pray as soon as I wake.
I am so thankful every day.
My repentance and absolution..
have brought me peace.
Now I start and end each day with prayer.
I always pray for you, Mrs Lee.
I'll pray for you until I die.
Seeing you here today..
tells me that God has heard my prayers.
It went surprisingly well.
When he came in, his face was radiant.
He looked good..
Too good for a jailbird.
Then he told us he'd also found God.
After accepting God.. he said he found peace.
Then they both went on about God.
His face looked so good.
God's will is something else!
You bet it is!
Shin-ae! The car's here!
Shin-ae, come on!
We'll go without you!
What's wrong with her?
Good Lord!
Shin-ae!
I'm at work.
I told you, at work.
Yes, some nights.
It just happens to be quiet, okay?
You think garages are always noisy?
Another nightmare?
Tell me about it.
Give me a break!
Listen, I'm working my socks off, I don't need this..
Everything's fine.
Everything's fine!
Yes, I've eaten.
You think I'm starving, Ma?
I have to go.
Alright, alright!
Reverend..
Why are you out here?
She wants to be alone.
I said you were coming, but..
Beats me.. things went so well.
When she met the prisoner.
How is she?
She's on a glucose drip.
The doc says she's had a psychological trauma.
She needs rest for a couple of days.
It's very hard to live by God's word.
I will always study hard and grow up well..
to become an outstanding person in our country!
This boy..
speaks loudly and firmly!
Thank you, Mother!
To help me grow up..
you take good care of me
You are so kind to me
Everyone's so somber..
Say something, Shin-ae.. You're making us nervous.
God understands you, Mrs Lee.
You tried to forgive him..
as The Lord commands.
But you found it too hard..
and suffered more.
Times like this are a test of your faith.
Let us pray for Mrs Lee.
Our prayers will reveal the answer.
We will hear God's voice.
Now, let us pray.
Thanks be to God.
Loving Father..
One of your innocent lambs..
tried to follow Your command..
to love and forgive her enemy.
But her pain was too great.
Give this poor soul salvation..
and the faith to truly forgive.
Forgive?
How can I possibly forgive?
I might want to, but I can't.
He says God has already forgiven him.
He has found peace.
Hush, the Reverend is praying..
God has forgiven him..
and so you should too.
If he's been absolved,
how can I forgive him again?
How dare God absolve him..
before I've forgiven him myself?
I am in so much pain.
And yet he says he's been..
absolved, and has gained peace.
How could God do that to me?
Why?
Please leave, all of you.
I have a lot to do.
It's just an earthworm.
An earthworm.
You frightened it!
It won't come back.
Do you need any help?
No, I'm just looking.
Madam!
Wait!
Ma'am!
You haven't paid.
What?
Open your bag.
Let go!
Show me your bag!
- Let me check it! - Let go!
She hasn't paid?
What a bummer!
- Do you believe? - Yes!
How to be a loyal servant of God.
Repeat after me..
- One! - One!
- Be frugal! - Be frugal!
- Two! - Two!
- Be mutually supportive! - Be mutually supportive!
- Three! - Three!
- Be dutiful! - Be dutiful!
Bearing these three rules in mind, let us stand.
Let us raise our hands, call our.
Lord's name and pray.
Loud and clear.. Oh, Lord!
Our Lord, Almighty God!
We are truly grateful to You.
We praise You in all Your glory!
We humble sinners have been slaves to our bodily needs.
In lavishing attention..
on our food and drink..
we have neglected life's real meaning.
Honored and blessed Father!
In this Holy gathering, bestow on your believers..
the grace of a new life.
Till now, we may have lived..
only for ourselves.
From now on, let us live a life beyond this mortal plane.
We have failed to see the wonders of Your great creation.
Open our eyes to nature's beauties!
Let us praise You as the sublime Creator!
Give us Your blessing.
We are gathered here today..
in Your sight, Oh Lord.
Teach us to realize..
with your Holy blessing..
how to transform our lives.
You granted us a Holy, blessed life..
but we have been blind to its true meaning!
We see only worldly things!
Oh Lord, hear the prayer of Your followers.
Insistent, yearning, determined..
Lord, be with us.
Open our hearts..
to the wonders of creation.
# Lies
# Love is a lie
# Smiling is a lie
# They're all lies
As we approach Our Lord..
we bear within us..
the sufferings he endured.
Oh, King of Kings..
Help us to achieve our goals!
Lead these humble souls..
along the path of righteousness.
In the name of Our Savior Jesus..
Amen.
Hello?
What?
What are you saying?
But I don't..
I want to hear Jun's voice.
Please let me hear him!
Yes.. oh, Shin-ae!
It's very late..
What? Who?
It can't be.
How could he call from prison?
Weren't you dreaming?
That's not what I meant.
Shin-ae, calm down..
Please calm down..
Shin-ae, I was wrong just now.
I'll check tomorrow.
I'll call Masan Prison..
and the police.
Yes, I'll let you know.
Tomorrow..
We could have dinner.
I know a really good place.
And get some fresh air.
Okay..
Busy, today.
Welcome.
Give me your best, okay?
I need it to be perfect.
Fuck off, you're invading my kitchen.
What a melodrama, asshole.
I'm a nervous wreck today.
Bear with me.
You don't look the part.
More comedy than melodrama.
That's how it looks.
Your view's too narrow.
It could be comic melodrama! I'll try.
Throw it out!
Throw it out! Bin it!
Just bin it!
The knife's dull.
Time's dragging.. Should I call her?
Lovely music on her phone.
Classy, isn't it?
Bullshit, she just chose it.
So it's a classy choice! How would you know?
Get a grip, Kim.
No answer.
Hello.
How are you, Mrs Lee?
Haven't seen you in church lately.
Your wife's gone to church?
No, she's at the market.
Shopping for tonight's vigil.
I'm glad.
I need your private advice.
Advice?
It's a bit embarrassing.
There's something wrong with my body.
As if I have butterflies inside.
Is it indigestion?
No, that's not it.
How can I explain?
You know..
My body's..
This is embarrassing..
Elder..
will you take me for a drive?
Oh my!
Wait..
What?
Let's get out.. It's too stuffy in here.
This is nicer, isn't it?
Come on, quick.
Can you see?
What's wrong?
I don't know why.. It won't..
You can do it!
I don't know why I can't.
Maybe it's stress.
Or because God is watching.
Let's get up, Mrs Lee.
I'm sorry.
What is it, Mrs Lee?
Mrs Lee..
Are you alright?
Kim! What's happening?
Still no word?
When do I get to show off my cooking?
Am I really such a loser?
Why do you always say such things?
What big mistake did I make..
to have the family look down on me?
Am I really a loser?
Ma, you never consider how I feel, you know?
It's nice you've remembered my birthday.
But please consider my feelings.
Of course I've eaten!
I had spicy squid to celebrate.
And liquor.. With friends.
My friends are here with me!
Okay? I gotta go now, Ma.
Tonight, at Deaconess Kim's place..
they're holding a vigil for me.
You're still here?
What?
Well..
I haven't quite adapted to prayer vigils yet.
Anyhow, we had a dinner date..
Oh.. that's right.
I met someone else.
Yeah?
You wanna do it too?
What?
Sex.
I just asked..
to see if you wanted to.
You gaze at me.
That's all you do.. Useless, helpless gazing!
You're always whispering..
Shin-ae!
But can't say that you love me.
That's all you do You gaze at me.
That's all you do You can't make a move..
What the hell?
What's going on?
Please pull yourself together!
Shin-ae!
Let's go home.
I'll take you.
Shin-ae, I'm sorry.. I was wrong.
Shin-ae!
Oh, fuck it..
When I was twelve..
you locked me in the bathroom for crying.
Always smoking at home..
Always hitting my head with a spoon.
Bullshit!
Why did I want to go to music school?
You wouldn't let me, motherfucker!
Motherfucker! Horny dog!
I won't lose to you.
Never!
My husband usually leads the prayers.
But he's asked me to do it tonight.
Maybe he's finally recognized his wife's talents!
As you must know..
we're gathered here..
for sister Lee Shin-ae
She has suffered so much.. Let's pray for her.
May God's love shine down..
and save sister Shin-ae's wounded soul.
May she be healed.
Together, as believers..
let's be thankful and pray.
Lord, I thank you.
Thank you for gathering us here..
in worship before you.
Lord, we are here for a poor soul..
which is in pain and distress.
Lord..
What was that?
A stone!
Dear..
Please be careful.
Anyone there?
I don't see anyone.
Are you looking?
Do you see?
Help me.. Please help me..
On your right is Youngnam Temple.
One of the prettiest in Korea.
There's another in Jinju.
And a third in.. I forget.
What's Miryang like?
What's it like?
What's so funny?
Well.. The day Shin-ae arrived..
she asked the same thing.
"What's Miryang like?"
Where to begin?
It's like anywhere else.
Same people, same places..
You still go to church?
Yes.
I started going because of Shin-ae.
Now it's become a habit.
If I don't go, I miss it.
If I do go, I feel kind of peaceful.
You can fill your prescription at the pharmacy.
Shin-ae!
It's a perfect fit! Pretty!
I had to guess your size, so I'm glad it fits.
Feeling good, Shin-ae?
Well dressed and going home!
Give her the flowers!
Shin-ae..
You got through it.
Oh, how pretty!
Let's get going.
Mr Lee Seong-go, stop playing with the lights!
Sorry, sis,
I'll be back in a few days' time.
Bye.
Let's have a drink next time.
Sure.
- What's the delay? Let's go. - Okay.
Shin-ae, let's have something nice to eat today.
My treat!
I booked for us.
I'd like to get my hair done first.
That's no problem..
Do your hair and make-up.
You should look pretty for your homecoming, right?
Welcome.
Take a seat..
She'd like a hair-do.. How long's the wait?
Would you like a perm?
No, just a cut.
Then there's no need to wait.. This way, please.
I'll take that.
Haven't you eaten yet? You're needed!
She cuts better than me.
Good sense of style.
How short do you want it?
Right length, right look.
You mean, right for you.
Yes! Right look!
This length would look pretty.
How are you?
Where did you learn to cut hair?
At juvenile reformatory.
Why were you there?
I.. got into trouble.
And school?
I just quit.
It wasn't for me.
Ma'am!
What's wrong?
What's happened?
Shin-ae! Shin-ae!
What's wrong?
Why did you bring me here?
You wanted a hair-cut.
So I brought you to a salon.
But why this one?
Why on earth this one, today of all days?
June Piano!
How've you been?
When did you leave hospital?
Today.
Really?
You've put on weight!
You must have been well looked after.
Notice any changes?
I followed your advice!
Doesn't it look nice?
Business was slow, so I brightened the place up.
And sales have improved!
I'm glad.
My treat next time!
Hair problems?
I didn't like the salon..
so I walked out.
You're crazy! You can't just walk out like that!
Oh my..
May I hold it up for you?
