My husband and I came to know Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee three years ago. We registered as a member of the Manmin Central Church on October 25th, 2009 through the Internet.

In August of 2008, we asked Dr. Lee to pray for my son, Vitaliy Palnikov who had run away from home. After his prayer transcending space and time, my son came back home. As of now he is staying in Korea to become a missionary of Manmin Central Church.

The holiness gospel was a true blessing for our family. My husband and I listened to Dr. Lee's sermon program, 'The Message of the Cross' which includes explanation on 'Why Did God Put the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil in the Garden of Eden?', 'Jesus' Seven Words on the Cross' through Impact TV, Russian Christian channel. We came to make contact with Pastor Dr. Vitaliy Fishberg (The Wisdom and Power of God Manmin Church, New York City of the USA) and he helped us a lot.

We had led Christian lives for a long time, but we had many questions about the Words of God in the Bible. Dr. Lee's sermon with easy examples was very understandable to us. Through his sermon, we could know God's will clearly. After realizing the love of God through it, we came to love God more and more and have true faith. We felt so happy becoming true Christians. After all that we really wanted to see Dr. Lee in person.

Finally, in May of 2010, I visited Manmin Central Church, and received much grace. The members' believing lives were so impressive. After returning to the U.S., I registered as a student of MIS (Manmin International Seminary). Through the courses, I am studying the Word of God and experiencing spiritual change in my life.

We subscribed Manmin News in English. I have distributed them to Christians in Sacramento, California and shared the blessings I received. We also gave Dr. Lee's books Heaven and Hell to prisoners. We feel proud of ourselves seeing them change through the books. We give thanks and glory to Father God and we also give thanks to the Lord, our bridegroom.
