Israel is the birthplace of the gospel, but it is a Jewish country where Christians find it hard for them to keep their faith. The Israeli Christian churches have worked more energetically through Dr. Jaerock Lee's 777-day Israeli ministry that started on July 23, 2007. In particular, since Dr. Jaerock Lee's Israel United Crusade 2009 was conducted, Israeli Christian churches have been united and held praise festivals annually (Photos: local praise singers and Manmin's performers in 2014 Crystal Music Festival).


Israel is the holy land where traces of the Lord still linger intact. On a quiet evening there, praises to the Lord resounded towards heaven.

On May 24, 2014 at 6 in the evening locally, the Crystal Music Festival, hosted by Crystal Forum (Israeli Pastors' Association), commenced in the International Convention Center, Haifa, Israel. This event was attended by approximately 1,000 people from Russia, Ukraine, the Philippines, Finland, Lithuania, and Hong Kong as well as from Israel and South Korea. It was broadcast live to more than 180 countries via TBN Russia.

Several Israeli churches' praise singers' teams and Praise Leader Rose Han, Vice Chairperson of Manmin's Performing Arts Committee and the Power Worship Dance Team lifted up the name of the Lord high with beautiful performances. In addition, local pastors preached short messages between performances and led prayer. Praises and the Word were harmonized, which added more to the grace received.

Manmin's performers delivered opening and finale performances. They were complimented by people for accurate pronunciation of Hebrew, Russian, and English in singing and creative choreography. Attendees said they felt happy because of the beautiful wardrobes and props that caused the people to feel Heaven.

Praise Leader Han offered praise with the God-given song "Heavenly Glory" sung in heavenly language. After listening to the song, many attendees said that they were full of emotion as if they had seen an angel from heaven. When the Power Worship Dance Team performed a traditional Israeli dance, the congregation danced together as one and glorified God.

Pastor Daniel Rozen, President of Crystal Forum, expressed his gratitude saying, "We have achieved great developments so far because of Dr. Jaerock Lee's love and prayer."

Pastors of Crystal Forum said they had had many difficulties in performing their ministry due to financial problems and Jews' disturbances. In the midst of these times, Dr. Jaerock Lee financially supported them with his heart and love. The power of his love made them his disciples who preach the holiness gospel and the works of power. They are now holding this event where they boldly praise the name of the Lord thanks to Dr. Lee's love and prayers (More on Page 4).

Dr. Jaerock Lee proclaimed the holiness gospel and demonstrated the works of God's power by going all over Israel for three years from 2007 to 2009. By doing so, he encouraged and strengthened Israeli Christian churches.

For this occasion, Israeli pastors formed the organization called Crystal Forum. They invited Dr. Jaerock Lee to Israel and conducted Dr. Jaerock Lee's Israel United Crusade in September 2009. This crusade was live-broadcast to around 220 countries.

Since then, Crystal Forum has performed its ministry actively. They hold Crystal Music Festivals and glorify the Lord with praises each May.
