God gives to all generously and without reproach, and this year He gave Manmin members many more things for more thanks and greater joy through the shepherd's works of re-creation. He protected them in the Lord's name, let them witness amazing works of the Holy Spirit, helped them renew their hearts, and filled their hearts with hope for Heaven. Let's give all thanks and glory to the God of love!


Thanksgiving is one of the three great feasts of the Bible, and 2014's Thanksgiving Sunday was celebrated on November 16. Throughout the year of 2014, God has blessed Manmin to reap abundant fruit.

In the Thanksgiving Sunday Service, Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee preached the message entitled 'Power' taken from Matthew 16:13-16, and led Holy Communion during Evening Service. Both were broadcast live via GCN (www.gcntv.org). Manmin members offered up the deep aroma of love and thanksgiving to God who had protected and blessed them in the shepherd's power during the year.

Manmin members have enjoyed blessing exclusively given to them by God through the shepherd's prayer. The blessing is for them to witness and experience the power of God the Creator and to live a happy Christian life with the hope for New Jerusalem.

Since the opening of the church a significantly large number of members have experienced the power of God through Senior Pastor Dr. Lee's prayer. Many women who had conceived children with a high risk of Down syndrome delivered healthy babies by his prayer. The gender of the fetus was changed according to their request. Many members also received the blessing of conception or of healing (related story on page 4).

Under God's protection, additionally, Manmin members were always kept from all kinds of disasters, accidents, and diseases. Many members have remained healthy for the last 32 years without seeing a doctor even once. Even if they had car accidents by mistake on their part and their cars were totally destroyed, in God's care they weren't injured even a little.

More thankfully, many have grown in faith and have tried even harder than ever to achieve the heart of Christ Jesus and resemble God. That is, in the God-given rapid spiritual flow, pastors and members renewed their hearts, grew fast in spirit, and many of them had achieved the heart of spirit. By Easter 2014, the church had accomplished the standardization of spirit.

There is another reason they must give thanks for—they are part of the church which has been fulfilling and will continue to fulfill the providence of God. As a member of the church, each of them has accumulated rewards in Heaven by joining in preaching the holiness gospel to all the corners of the earth, through GCN's broadcasting ministry that covers over 170 countries, Urim Books' literary mission and book ministry, and World Christian Doctors Network that proves the powerful works of God based on medical data.

Above all else, many members enjoy blessings of everything going well and becoming healthy as their souls prosper.
