 |
|
Wondering if I could just do a mass broadcast. I'm looking for an English teacher somewhere in Korea named AMMON RICHARDSON. Unfortunately, I have little to no info on him. His granparents are friends of the family and haven't heard from him in a while. What I do know: Was an LDS missionary here once and returned to teach English. Age, marital status, location, or even timeframe of his arrival are all unknown. My parents offered my assistance, since I am here (Army Captain in Pyeongtaek) Hoping for any information that might lead me closer to him.
Thanks for putting up with the intrusion!
Respectfully,
Ryan |

I was an LSD missionary once too but only preached to the converted. |

Have you tried contacting any of the LDS churches to see if anyone has heard from him/been in touch with him?
If he was a committed follower of the religion, surely he would attend services regularly?

I assume many of you have extensive experience in dealing with the Embassies. Do they give out information? I assume he is registered with the US Embassy, but realistically don't expect them to give just anyone his address or phone number- or even when he came to Korea, for that matter. Just looking for options.
Thanks again.

Your best bet, I think, is going through this link:
http://www.ldsmissions.net/
There are links to four different regions of Korea, and you can search in English for active missionaries in each region... |

Me too but I find it hard to tell them apart. From about the 10 I have seen they have ALL had fairly short blond hair, blue eyes, been slim, fresh faced and slightly tanned, between 5'9 and 6'1. It's like they came out of a factory or something. Also they all have been wearing black shoes, black pants and a white shirt with a name badge reading "Elder Israel" or whatever their name is. Very hard to tell them apart.. |

Why would you assume he is registered with the embassy? In several years in Korea, I've never gotten around to it... |

| His family might be able to request information from the Embassy. |

Que buena idea Senor Cubanlord! Although, the OP says the guy isn't a missionary anymore, but an English teacher.
Still, post a picture OP and we will keep our eyes peeled

If you send a note to / get in touch with the embassy, they will NOT divulge his information but WILL post a note to/for him to contact you or his family.
Then it is just up to him if he wants to be contacted. |

Post a note...where? Are we all supposed to be checking the embassy for notes or Poste Restante every few days?
If the guy doesn't want to be found, I don't think it's likely you will find him. |

try the embassy. When you register, you can personally determine how much information can be released and to whom. worth a shot.
Definitely a good idea to register with the embassy. If the s**t hits the fan, the embassy can help you to get out, but only if you're on their list! |
