Whirlwind of the Holy Spirit's work prompted an endless procession of people wishing to testify
"The 2006 Democratic Republic of the Congo Miracle Healing Festival with Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee," held February 16~18, 2006 with over 700,000 people in attendance in the midst of enthusiastic support from DR Congo's political, financial, and church leaders, was from Day 1 a heavenly celebration marked by overflowing biblical miracles. We will magnify God with the following testimonies, a mere fraction of all the testimonies received at the Festival.
-Countless people seeking to testify to their healing even in the middle of Rev. Dr. Lee's prayer
 "I'd been unable to walk. Now I can even play soccer!"
Cristian (13, male)
As I was born prematurely at the seventh month of pregnancy, I often felt weak and could not walk very well. When I saw the TV commercial for the Festival, in my heart I felt, 'I will be healed once I go to there,' and attended with my sister. When I received prayer from Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee, in my legs was a sensation of a current of electricity and a cool breeze, and I could begin walking right away. Now, I can walk well but have also become healthy enough to play soccer with my friends.
 "I can hear with my left ear."
Agathe (17, female)
Beginning about 4, 5 years ago, I was unable to hear with my left ear. As people had to tell me the same thing in a very loud voice again and again, kids at school often made fun of me. Then I saw a TV commercial for the Festival one day, attended it, and received teeming grace from Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee's messages. As I stayed late into the night at the stadium to watch a myriad of people testifying to their healing, by the time I was ready to go home the buses had stopped running and I had to walk home. When I returned home and was having some snack, I felt like some object that had been clogging the left eardrum was slipping out of the ear and realized that I could hear again.
 "I'd been unable to see because of cataract but my eyes have been opened!"
Masudi Lisongi Bosongo (64, male)
During the 32 years of my life spent in the military, I was shot in my left leg in the civil war, since discharged, and have been living as a fisherman. Beginning in 1999, I'd been suffering from cataract. I went to see a doctor but without the money to pay for treatment, there wasn't much I could do. Then I heard on the radio the advertisement for the Festival and at the word that the blind could open their eyes, I became certain of my own healing at the Festival.
Because the site of the Festival was far from where I lived, I needed money for transportation, which I prepared by selling my radio for 3,800 francs (about US $9). As I received Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee's prayer on Day 2 of the Festival, I felt something like a fireball rolling from the back of my neck, then over my head, and on to my eyes. When I opened my eyes after the prayer, I could see every object in my sight.
 "My eyesight, which had deteriorated from drug poisoning, has been restored."
Max (10, male)
I had always relied on heavy medication for a variety of chronic diseases with which I was born, and suffered from a side effect of deteriorating eyesight. I couldn't see without a pair of very thick glasses. At the moment I received Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee's prayer at the Festival in Kinshasa, I felt a strong force which I could knock me down backwards. When I opened my eyes afterwards, I could see very well.
As my family now sees me reading a book I hadn't been able to read from a close range even with the eyeglasses, all of us are delighted and grateful.
 "I've been healed of the diabetes that had tormented me for 7 years!"
Jean Claude Mukadi (42, male)
I began suffering from diabetes about 7 years ago and in the last few months, I'd been unable to walk because of the tremendous pain in my feet.
On the first day of the Festival when I received Rev. Dr. Jaerock Lee's prayer, I felt a strong gust coming out of my eyes, nose, mouth, and ears and moving down to my feet. Soon, all the pain disappeared and I immediately knew I was healed. Now, I have strength throughout my body and am doing better than ever before.
Interview
 "I was deeply moved by the way healing testimonies were medically confirmed."
Omanga Okunji (President, Yolo Medical Center)
I attended the Festival on Day 3 at the invitation of Rev. Jean Bosko Kindomba, Vice Chairman of the Organizing Committee, and was deeply touched by the enormous size of the crowd gathered and the powerful work of the Holy Spirit.
I was all the more moved by how people's testimonies to their healing did not end with giving praise and glory to God but with medical confirmation of people's healing. At the Festival, I received God's answer to one of my prayer requests, "What can I do for the kingdom of God?" I am convinced that His answer lies in my assisting Manmin's ministry in every way I can.
