Elizabeth J. Shepping(1880-1934) came to Korea in 1912 as a medical missionary of Presbyterian Church in the United States, and had served the Korean people in evangelical, medical, educational, and social works until she died in 1934. Working as a nurse in Kwangju, Kunsan, and Seoul in the earlier periods, she also concentrated on evangelism and Bible teaching. Since she moved and settled in Kwangju in 1920, her missionary endeavors expanded to education, women, temperance, and social work. Her various missionary works became closely intertwined and interacted. Neel Bible School established in 1922 functioned as a center to synthesize and combine different works: Teaching the underprivileged and poor women in the school, she trained them into the Bible teachers, Christian leaders, and woman crusaders. For Shepping, evangelism to save individual souls was inseparable from social work rescuing the oppressed from social evils. The holistic care for the Korean people in extreme distress requested evangelistic, medical, educational, and social remedies as a whole. Shepping`s holistic mission actively responded to challenge from the mission field, and sought to solve the complicated problems by all-around Gospel. The holistic mission aimed at healing the physical body and the soul of the people and restoring society to Christian life and culture. This paper biographically illuminates Shepping`s life and work and investigates the holistic mission. It works as a case study to explain why and how Southern Presbyterian mission in Korea has been quite successful. It also displays how Christian women including female missionaries played an important role in the foundation and development of Christianity in Korea.
