From August 17 to 23, 2018, Bishop Myeongho Cheong, President of United Holiness Church of Jesus Christ, Africa led seminars in Uvira, Bukavu, and Goma in DR Congo (photo #1).

On 17 and 18, the seminar was held for church leaders in Uvira El-Shaddai Church (photo #4). Bishop Cheong delivered the message based on Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee's sermons "Spiritual Love" and "The Measure of Faith." After being greatly touched by the messages, Pastor Alembe said, "In this seminar, I learned things that can unite our church in God's love, the Word of God, and prayer. I appreciate it."

On Sunday, August 19, Dr. Cheong preached the message in the 10th anniversary service of El-Shaddai Church in the morning and led the handkerchief prayer meeting in the afternoon (photo #8). The meeting was held at the center of Uvira city with approximately 1,000 people in attendance. He preached about the love of the Lord's cross and spiritual love. More than a hundred people accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior.

After the sermon, he prayed for the sick with the handkerchief on which Dr. Jaerock Lee had prayed (Acts 19:11-12). Many people were healed of their diseases and gave testimonies. Brother Muandangu Shivichabo had been unable to move his neck and could not hear during the previous three months since his neck bone had been dislocated, but after the prayer, he was healed. Brother Raphael Katembo could not hear for five years and he walked with a limp, but he came to hear and move his legs freely after the prayer.

From August 21 to 23, Dr. Cheong led the seminars as courses of Manmin International Seminary in Tente d'Assignation Church in Bukavu and CEPAC Church in Goma (photos #2, 3, 5, 6, and 7). The seminary students in attendance were bishops and pastors. Dr. Cheong gave lectures under the titles "Spiritual Love" and "The Measure of Faith."

Pastor Shukuru Kamiete said, "As a pastor who delivers the Word of God, I was blessed so much through the message because Dr. Cheong taught us to understand with correct spiritual meanings of the passages. While I worked as a police manager I read Dr. Jaerock Lee's book The Measure of Faith and realized the heart and will of God. After that, I chose to be a pastor and have served God since."

The seminars for MIS Africa have been conducted in major cities of Kenya and two cities of Uganda as well as DR Congo with Dr. Lee's sermons "The Message of the Cross," "The Measure of Faith," and "Spirit, Soul, and Body" as major topics.
