AB - Many missionary children are born or raised in a variety of countries. 'Third Culture Kids' are defined as the children who grew up in a culture other than their parents' culture. Missionary children are considered a small group belonging to the category of ‘Third Culture Kids’ as they experience multilingualism, multiculturalism, and multi-society. As missionaries and their children have to adapt selectively in the fields of politics, culture, economy, and daily life of the mission country, they have to use the dual strategy of maintaining their faith community while negotiating with the ruling people. In addition, when they return to their home country after spending a certain period of growth in various mission fields abroad, they experience a great deal of reverse culture shock due to cultural adaptation and cross-cultural movement. However, most studies have been conducted on missionary children of school age, and studies on college students and adults started appearing in the mid-2000s. When examining the life of missionary children as a whole, it is important to determine how to help and care for the difficulties they face during school age. However, it is even more crucial to provide Christian care for young adults' multifaceted and comprehensive experiences when essential things in life are decided. Therefore, this study proposes several methods for Christian counseling care for the readjustment of missionaries' children in their young adult period who have returned or re-entered their country.
