The COVID19 pandemic facing the world in recent years is a widespread epidemic unprecedented in human history. Pandemics have long accompanied human history, threatening church services and Christian missions. However, the pandemic was not always negative for Christian missions, and sometimes gave Christianity a chance for mission. The purpose of this study is to examine how the pandemic has historically influenced Christian missionary work, and to gain insight to find the direction in which Christian mission should go in the current COVID19 pandemic situation. There were two major pandemics in the early Christian era. At that time, Christians of the early church saw the care of patients as a way to practice Christ's love even if they risked death. This true practice of love impressed the Romans and contributed greatly to Christian mission. In the era of religious reform, the reformers not only cared for patients, but also practiced the love of Christ by presenting the hope of eternal life after death. In the early days of Protestant missionary work in Korea, People with infectious diseases were cared for in Christian mission hospitals, which changed their perception of Christianity. These educational and medical ministries greatly contributed to the Korean Protestant mission.
