There were other programs such as 'The Way to New Jerusalem' seminar, the video presentation of 'Heaven and Hell', and 'Fullness of the Holy Spirit Prayer Meeting'.
Pastor Bhakta Gajmer, Hosanna Agape Church (Jhapa area-eastern Nepal) said, "I listened to the very precious message and had a great opportunity to look back on my past Christian life." He continued to testify to the blessings that he had received through the ministry of Manmin. Pastor Ramesh Subba (Ilam area-eastern Nepal) said with emotion, "The training programs were simple, but we would have been hard pressed to complete them without spiritual strength." There were also other participants who said that they received courage and new spiritual strength through the retreat.
