"Our Hearts Overflow with the Love of the Lord that is Given by No One Else!"
From July 27 to August 11, nineteen deaf-mute believers visited Manmin Central Church from 4 nations: Malaysia, Thailand, Denmark and Taiwan. The believers from Penang and Malacca in Malaysia and Hat Yai in Thailand had longing hearts to experience the holiness gospel and God's powerful works. They flew to Korea to attend the 2010 Manmin Summer Retreat and visit the Muan Sweet Water site. Their happy testimonies are carried in this issue of Manmin News.
* The Ministry for the Deaf-mute Overseas
Pastor Junghoon Ji, now the Vice Guidance Teacher of the Deaf-mute Mission of Manmin Central Church, had been doing a ministry in Malaysia for some time but later came back to Korea. One day he came to read the messages of Dr. Jaerock Lee and was so touched in his heart. He began spreading the holiness gospel to Malaysian deaf-mutes through the Internet. When the messages on Heaven and Hell were delivered, their spirits were awakened. Through the holiness gospel they came to have a yearning for sanctification and to make changes in their lives. They themselves prepared a place for the worship service and attended the service via the Internet. They also requested Manmin Central Church to send Pastor Ji to Malaysia to teach them the messages on sanctification firsthand. Since that time he has frequently visited there to teach them. The Malaysian deaf-mute believers had watched the web-broadcasting of the Friday all-night service and Sunday morning and evening services of Manmin Central Church through sign language translation, and their faith grew. On June 20, 2010, they offered the establishment service for the Penang Manmin Deaf-mute Church. Since then, two more branch churches have been founded in Malacca of Malaysia and in Hat Yai of Thailand. In Surat Thani of Malaysia and Trang of Thailand, deaf-mute believers have already purchased the land for the church and are preparing to open a branch church in each location respectively. In addition, many more deaf-mute believers around the world are waiting for a branch church to be established.

The Lord Healed Me of AIDS and Guided Me into Heaven
Chankok Seng (30, Penang Manmin Deaf-mute Church, Malaysia)
In March of 2008, I felt a lump on the right side of my neck. I went to the hospital for an evaluation. I was diagnosed with AIDS. It was a flashing shock to me. I was seriously depressed and lost heart. From my childhood I had led a homosexual life. I was addicted to drinking, smoking and drugs. I even visited the red-light district in Thailand. After receiving the diagnostic result, I lost weight and suffered from itchiness. In that suffering, I felt inclined to go to church, and paid a visit to a deaf-mute church. Pastor Ji, who was staying in Malaysia, told me to distance myself from TV, phone conversations and friends. I was advised to attend the worship service attentively and to offer a fasting prayer every morning for 40 days. I simply obeyed every word. Pastor Ji returned to Korea and a Malaysian pastor candidate, Pastor Mahendran, flew to Korea to see Pastor Ji. After coming back, Pastor Mahendran told me of the many wonders and signs that are taking place at Manmin Central Church. From that time, I came to believe and have the hope that I would be able to be healed through the prayer of Dr. Jaerock Lee who is manifesting God's powerful works. In January of 2009, Pastor Ji visited Malaysia again. He explained how serious sexual immortality is and spoke in detail about Heaven and Hell. By faith I quit taking medications and prayed to God. I fasted 7 days and repented with tears that I had lived a messy sex life and been addicted to drugs. When Pastor Ji was about to return home after completing his mission trip, I asked him to convey my special offering to Dr. Jaerock Lee and to tell him my prayer request. Pastor Ji received the prayer from Dr. Lee on my behalf. After that I began to recover from my illness and the itchiness disappeared. I never skipped attending the worship service and never ceased praying. Whenever I attended Daniel Prayer Meeting, I received Dr. Jaerock Lee's prayer for the sick every night. The lump on the neck disappeared and I began to gain weight from 60kg to 77kg. The doctors confirmed my recovery. In July I recovered my good health enough to go to work. I give my heartfelt gratitude to the Lord who saved me from the path to Hell.
