On July 20, 1996, Senior Pastor, Dr. Jaerock Lee came to Argentina for the first time for a seminar for pastors and workers. The seminar was held under the theme of “The Secret of Church Growth,” and attended in Chile, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Brazil and Argentina.

At that time, Dr. Lee’s books in Spanish were also introduced. After that, Argentine Manmin Church has been established.

Personally, as an organizer of this large-scale seminar and as a man who worked to publish seven books of Dr. Lee in Spanish, it was a great honor to meet him in person.

Dr. Senior Pastor’s words, wisdom, and prayers were filled with God’s power and had a great shock on the lives of over 1,200 pastors. Through prayer for the sick, they were also healed of various diseases.

Thus, by the request of pastors, the second pastor’s seminar and revival meeting were held again in October 1997. At this time, about 9,000 missionaries and pastors attended not only from Chile, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Brazil and Argentina but also from Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela and Mexico.

The pastors who attended the seminar received powerful teachings that stroke the soul. Dr. Lee emphasized that our ministry is in God’s hand. We asked Senior Pastor to pray for us, and we repented with tears to God for not leading the souls He had entrusted to us. And we realized that the reason we couldn’t make revival was our negligence.

Now, as 24 years later has passed, I am ministering as the senior pastor of Manmin Church in Argentina. Currently, due to the COVID 19 situation, we couldn’t attend on-site service though, we are having worship service live on Facebook. Thousands of people attend the Sunday service and join together in a study meeting with the book, “The Message of the Cross” every Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday at 9:00 pm.

Recently, we also do it on Twitter and YouTube and People’s testimonies continue.

Most of all, the workers and members of the Argentine Manmin Church are very thankful to God who sowed this beautiful gospel seed in Argentina through Senior Pastor.

We have seen the ministry of the power, and we are grateful that we are a part of the fruit of love and truth that Dr. Lee has planted in this country with tears and efforts. Therefore, we are growing by the grace of God and the prayers of Manmin Central Church members in Argentina where is large and wide. In the future, we will reap more fruits of the ministry that Senior Pastor has sowed.

From Argentina on the other side of earth, I’d like to express my gratitude to Senior Pastor and Manmin Central Church. We are Manmin, and one with the Lord in Manmin.
