"And God was performing extraordinary miracles by the hands of Paul, so that handkerchiefs or aprons were even carried from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them and the evil spirits went out" (Acts 19:11-12).
- Thunderous works of conversion and God's healing in Siliguri in northern India and Nepali capital of Kathmandu
 
Crusade in Siliguri, India
The Himalayas, often called the "Roof of the World," stretches through Pakistan, a northern Indian state of Sikkim, Nepal, Bhutan, and to Tibet in the south. For the countless living in the mountainous regions, "The 2006 Himalayan Pastors' and Ministers' Seminar and Handkerchief Crusade" took place in the middle of November 2006.
The crusade, held on November 13th and 14th, 2006 in Siliguri in northern India and in Nepal's capital city of Kathmandu November 17 ? 19, 2006, with Rev. Mikyung Lee of Manmin Joong-ang Church, won back many souls for Jesus Christ and gave great glory to God with the works of God's power manifested through the prayer with the handkerchief on which Senior Pastor Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee had prayed (Acts 19:11-12).
The crusade is believed to lead and already have led countless souls in the Himalayas, including Nepal, northern India, Bhutan, and neighboring regions.

Monday, November 13 ? Handkerchief Crusade / "The Message of the Cross," "Only Jesus is Our Savior"
Traditional Korean fan-dancing and praise performances in the local languages by the Crystal Singers of Manmin Joong-ang Church on the first day of the Crusade at The Himalayan Conference & Resort Center more than sufficed to fill more than 4,000 gathered with the Holy Spirit.
With a message titled "Why is Jesus Our Savior?" Speaker Rev. Mikyung Lee boldly proclaimed that the Savior of mankind is only Jesus Christ and her message led many people to repent and accept the Lord. By her prayer with the handkerchief on which Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee had prayed, people who had been relying on crutches began to walk on their own, those suffering from various infirmities became strong, and others suffering from illnesses such as cancer gave glory to God with the healing they received.
Tuesday, November 14 ? Pastors' and Ministers' Seminar and Handkerchief Crusade / Countless cases of healing and conversion
Held on the second day of the Crusade was "The Pastors' and Ministers' Seminar and Handkerchief Crusade" that began at 9 o'clock in the morning. More than 700 pastors and ministers from India, Nepal, and Bhutan were greatly challenged and motivated after hearing a lecture titled "The Secret to the Growth of Manmin Joong-ang Church."
During the handkerchief crusade held in the afternoon, the number of attendants exceeded 6,000 and the "Maximum Capacity" established by the Resort, and the Crusade was moved to an outdoor field.
Through the message titled "The Power of the Holy Spirit," about 60% of Hindus and Sikhs in attendance converted to Christianity. Many people at hand, including a child who had been unable to walk, and those who had been suffering from paralysis, deteriorating eyesight, hardness of hearing, epilepsy, and others testified to God's healing they received through the handkerchief prayer of Rev. Dr. Lee.
After the Crusade, seven churches, shepherded by Organizing Committee Chairman Rev. Sam Harsha Sereng and Rev. Reuben Diyali in Bhutan, who requested for the Crusade to be held, signed on as Manmin branch churches.
