Stands Firm as a Leader in Gospel Media Since Its First Publication 22 Years Ago
English version of Manmin News is being translated on a weekly basis and spearheading the world mission.
Manmin News is spreading the word of God throughout the world and gaining worldwide attention from members with its publication in many different languages. In January, 1999, Manmin News first started publication in English for foreign members in Manmin Central Church and for the evangelism of foreigners residing in Korea. Currently it is being published in 13 additional languages including Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, French, German, Russian, Indonesian, Tagalog, Portuguese, Mongolian, Hindi and Tamil. Manmin News published its first issue on May, 1987 and was composed of domestic and overseas news, 'Word of Life' and vivid testimonies of members in and outside of Korea who experienced the living God. The newspaper is providing the holiness gospel, powerful works of God and helpful contents for life of faith, and thereby not only touching members' and pastors' hearts, but also giving them a big boost in helping the growth of their faith. Manmin News is first translated into English by the Translation Bureau of our church and then it's translated into different languages and edited by the workers of the Translation Bureau and local translators. The newspapers are designed by the Editorial Bureau and they are distributed to many countries by mail after being proofread by the workers in the Interpretation Department. The Overseas Mission Team of the Office of Administration in particular is in charge of the Indonesian, Tamil and Hindi editions of Manmin News, which are being published in local countries. Translated versions of Manmin News are being delivered to churches, pastors and members who are longing for the holiness gospel and the power of God in many countries such as the United States, China, Malaysia, Singapore, Taipei, the Philippines, Kenya, DR Congo, Japan, China, Peru, Brazil, Angola, Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Belarus, Israel, Indonesia, India to name but a few. It is also being sent to overseas branch and associative churches where it is being used for the growth of faith and use in evangelism to lead many people into salvation. Manmin News is very useful, especially in countries where they lack the resource of an established mission. Actually, Manmin News is planting faith into many peoples' hearts and letting them know the way to receive answers and blessings.

"Manmin News Is a Partner in My Ministry"
I am Pastor Tariq Zia in Pakistan. I received much grace while reading the message titled 'Blessing' in the 'Word of Life' section of Manmin News. When I preached the same message at my own church, the members became filled with joy and were thankful for the precious message. The reason is that they realized how their families and themselves could receive blessings from God. And when I shared the grace with the testimonies carried in the newspaper, they glorified God crying out "Hallelujah" at the amazing works of God's power. My church experienced many changes and is in revival because I preached the sermons with the teachings that I learned from Manmin News. The newspaper has been of big help in my ministry.
"Manmin News Has Been a Blessing to the Church and Members"
I am Pastor Raja Ram Tiagi in Sultanpur located in Northern India. I met Pastor John Kim at a meeting held in Barabanki, India, and that was where he handed Manmin News to me. The newspaper was a blessing to me and my members. One of my members once came over and asked this question, "Why did God place the tree of knowledge of good and evil although he knew Adam would eat from it?" I couldn't give him a clear answer. But through reading the weekly column 'The Message of the Cross' carried in the newspaper, I could give him the answer to that question. Many souls are accepting the Lord when I distribute Manmin News in Hindi and showing them the 'The Power of God' DVD. In addition, various diseases have been healed.
