“I couldn’t hear in the left ear for long but I can hear now!”
New Update
About 5 years ago, I left the church and became lukewarm. Meanwhile I developed acute arthritis on the left knee and had difficulty climbing a building without an elevator. Still less, the hearing on the left ear worsened due to the aftereffects of brain tumor surgery and I was diagnosed with hearing impairment at the end of 2023.

2011 Easter Performance 'The Footprints of the Lord' in the main sanctuary of Manmin Central Church


On April 24th Manmin Central Church offered Sunday morning service to God commemorating the resurrection of the Lord. Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee delivered the message under the title of 'The Lord of the Resurrection' with the scripture from Acts 1:11. He said, "The Lord was crucified and suffered excruciating pain, but He was resurrected, ascended into Heaven, and has been in measureless glory. In the same manner, when we take the road He took, we will finally enjoy eternal life full of glory and blessings." With their praise 'To the Lord of the Resurrection', the Immanuel Choir gave glory to the Lord who rose from the dead and shattered the power of death.
During Sunday evening service, Dr. Lee delivered the message with the title of 'Those Who Engrave God's Love in Their Hearts' based on John 6:53-55. The celebration of Holy Communion followed. It was broadcast live via satellite and Internet. Not only believers in the main sanctuary and the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th sanctuaries, but those in branch churches all around the world, had a great time together. They were filled with gratefulness to the service and sacrifice of the Lord while partaking in the bread and drinking grape juice which represent the flesh and blood of the Lord.
On the previous day, on April 23rd, the 2011 Easter Celebration Performance entitled 'The Footprints of the Lord' was presented during the second part of Friday all-night service. Approximately four hundred people devoted themselves to the performance playing roles as performers, staff, members of United Choir, and the Nissi orchestra. The performance was aired live internationally through GCN as well as in Korea.
The play consisted of 6 acts. The theme of each act is as follows: 'At the Sea of Galilee' in Act 1; 'Jesus and His Disciples' in Act 2; 'Jesus' Arrest' in Act 3; 'Jesus Imprisoned' in Act 4; 'Jesus' Crucifixion' in Act 5; and 'Resurrection and Hope' in Act 6. It was noteworthy that during His crucifixion the dance of angels was presented through dance drama. In the last scene, believers' hopeful and longing heart for the Lord's return was well expressed with beautiful songs.
On April 21st and 22nd, members of Women's Mission visited public offices, schools, and offices around the church with eggs, the symbolic gift of Easter Day. They delivered the love of God, who sent us Jesus as a peace offering, by distributing decoration eggs to people. On Easter Sunday, church members celebrated the resurrection of the Lord and shared eggs with great joy. An egg means a new life, because an egg looks dead on the outside, but has a life inside.


"Lord, we are celebrating Your resurrection"

On April 18th, children in Manmin Kindergarten decorated eggs thinking about the resurrection of the Lord. Members of Women's Mission gave baskets of eggs to people in public offices and companies around the church on April 21st and 22nd. The Love Dance Team of Mongol Manmin Church (Missionary Batzorig) took part in the '10th Easter Celebration Program' sponsored by the Union of Mongolian Churches, and gave glory to God with beautiful dance.
