Deacon Ronya Y. Son, Parish 15, Manmin Central Church
When the church opened, God told us that we should spread the gospel to God's Elect Israel at the end time, and it was our church's duty. We heard that even Jewish people who had not accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior would repent and it would result in the returning of the gospel to Israel.
On July 25, 2007, which was the anniversary of the church's opening, God let us start our Israeli ministry in Nazareth. Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee visited areas all over the nation for three years. He preached the holiness gospel and performed signs, wonders, and powerful works. In September 2009, the last year of the ministry, he conducted a crusade in Jerusalem, the center of Israel (Photo below). He proclaimed that Jesus Christ is our only Savior and confirmed it through countless powerful works. This crusade was broadcast to around 220 countries. Gratefully, I joined this ministry as a Russian interpreter.
In 1992, under the guidance of God, I left for Russia to study Russian. At that time Russia was unstable because it had not been long since it opened its door. I was just 21, and everything including language, food, and all surroundings was unfamiliar, and I felt lonely. But I overcame everything with faith. It was possible because I had a vision to become a worker who helps the shepherd accomplish the world mission.
I came back from Russia after studying for six years, and I became a Levite worker. Since then I've been doing works related to Russian-speaking countries. In 2007 the Israeli ministry began in earnest. Many Russian speaking Jewish churches and pastors started to join Manmin and more and more people all over Israel joined.
Though it was not very easy, Senior Pastor conducted the Israeli ministry and did it with faith, love, and power. In one Pastors' Seminar, he said, "I truly love Israel!" I felt his sincere and earnest heart and interpreted it with tears. The Israeli pastors seemed to feel the same and sobbed. They continued to say thanks to the Lord who sent Senior Pastor to Israel.
The love and power of the shepherd has borne the fruit of the gospel in Israel. One of the fruits is Crystal Forum (Israeli Pastors' Association, left). They have spread the news about Manmin in the world through festivals, handkerchief healing meetings, and seminars. The ministry of Manmin will continue until the providence of God towards Israel is completed. Hallelujah!
