One day in January 2024, I woke up in the morning and felt pain in my neck. I could feel a small lump. As time passed, the lump grew bigger and bigger to turn into a bump, and the affected area became swollen. It was easily visible, so I turned up my collar or covered it with a scarf. ...
"Manmin Central Church is a place where people who are full of love gather"
Executive General Director, Helping Hand Coalition Otolaryngologist, Obstetrician & Gynecologist President & C.E.O, Network Intelligence Technology Group
Dr. Andre Gasiorowski of Israel visited Manmin Central Church to celebrate its 32nd Anniversary. Here is an interview with him.
What is your key to receiving God's blessing?
I was offered up to God through my mother's prayer even before I was born. I am a Polish Jew. During my younger days, I started a business with my co-worker as he suggested that we should work together. I had been a medical doctor so I knew little about running a business. But I accepted his suggestion with faith, we started with 'We Earn to Share with Others!' as our slogan, and gave a tithe to God. As God poured down blessings upon us our business boomed to have 600 branches and associative firms and made a great profit amounting to no less than tens of millions of dollars.
Where did you get to know Manmin Central Church in Israel?
I am President of Helping Hand Coalition (a network of hundreds of international charitable organizations with special attention to impoverished Holocaust Survivors). I believe Holocaust survivors are the most pitiful who underwent harshest persecution ever. I hold events for them every year. In 2012, especially, Rev. Soojin Lee of Manmin Central Church came and delivered the word of life to over 10,000 survivors in attendance. And the church's performers showed beautiful performances. Such devotion opened their hearts and they came to have interest and belief in the Lord.
What impressed you the most during your visit to Manmin?
I saw the church members doing what the Holy Spirit wants in obedience to His urging. It was quite unbelievably so. Manmin Central Church is where people full of love gather. Every one of them was replete with love and peace, and gave out fragrance of longing for New Jerusalem in Heaven. They keep God's commandments, achieve sanctification, and have a specific goal to enter New Jerusalem. They looked as if they were practicing their heavenly lives beforehand. I hope all people will learn how to serve God through this Manmin overflowing with the Spirit's fullness.
How did you feel when you first met Dr. Jaerock Lee in person?
I was astounded as I first met Dr. Jaerock Lee. I had known him through his sermons and photographs. Honestly I had been a little afraid of him. But he was like a father who has parental love.
Soon enough, I was overwhelmed by his love and spiritual dignity. I felt that he does everything in love. I realized why many people love him. I also felt the presence of God through him.
He is a servant of God who is pure and knows no compromise with the worldly things. He only communicates with God and delivers His love to people, which seemed like his reason to live.
Can you tell us about your future ministry and vision?
I hope that Israeli news will be reported on GCN so that the viewers can get close to the country. In addition, I want GCN programs to be aired in the direction from Israel towards the whole world. If the holiness gospel is broadcast from Jerusalem it will have greater impact on people in the world as well as in Israel.
