Clouds are created in a process in which a parcel of air rises without exchange of heat between the air parcel and surrounding air. As the temperature of the parcel drops the size of the droplets of moisture becomes larger, and then a cloud is created tracing out of the air parcel. It was said that it is quite an extraordinary and rare case for a heart-shaped cloud to appear naturally because it can form only when a heart-shaped air parcel is created and then it is raised intact by convection. The heart-shaped cloud was observed for approximately 40 minutes in the sky over Muan Manmin Church where evangelism campaign is under way to spread the love of God.

Spring, when everything comes alive again, is upon us. The fervor for spreading the love of the Lord is becoming very strong in branch churches of Manmin Central Church. Pastor Hyung-yul Park, ministering to Gwangju Manmin Church, recalled the faces of his late father, brother-in-law, and cousins while watching the video presentation of 'Heaven and Hell'. The church has carried on an evangelism campaign entitled 'The Day When My Entire Family Receives Salvation' with slogan 'I Cannot Enter Heaven Alone' from earlier this year.
The church members submitted a list of names of people whom they wanted to evangelize. The list is posted on the walls of the prayer rooms in the church. They have prayed to God for them saying their names one by one. Members of the Evangelism Committee have regular meetings to check the progress of the campaign and look for better ways to spread the Good News.
Above all, the campaign carries significance in that it is mainly aimed at evangelizing their family members. Pastor Park said, "I will not just watch our family members going to Hell. I will help you spread the gospel to your family so that they will not go to Hell."
Brothers and sisters are overwhelmed with joy when they experience evangelism of the family becoming a reality. "My sister-in-law used to be a Buddhist. It is truly miraculous for her now to believe in God," said Elder Cheong Heo. Deaconess Mihyun Kim has led 7 of her family members including her mother-in-law and sister-in-law to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior. (See page 4)
Chuncheon Manmin Church (Pastor Dongheon Kim) recently saw church membership grow twofold. As a result they are preparing to move to new sanctuary. Their church-wide evangelism campaign was conducted from February 6th to March 27th. All members have not only been trying hard to spread the gospel, but also pastor and church workers assisting each newcomer to become a 'wheat-like' believer by uniting as one in the Lord and visiting newcomers. Furthermore, the newfound atmosphere of energy in the church has helped the newcomers to adapt to their new lifestyle in Christ quickly.
Daejeon Manmin Church (Pastor Taesik Kil) has played a key role in spreading the Word of God in central Daejeon. The members also have been spreading God's Word in earnest to have the biggest congregation attending the Sunday Worship Service on April 10th. They published a guidebook Questions & Answers on Christianity which talks about basics of Christian life in easy and interesting ways in order to let newcomers have true faith. On Sundays, they teach them on the subjects like 'Who God the Trinity Is', 'What Christian life Is Like', just to name a couple.
Gumi Manmin Church (Pastor Jesoo Choi) has been working on evangelism campaign with a goal to experience twofold revival before March 27th when the Church's Anniversary Service will be held. On February 27th, Muan Manmin Church (Pastor Myungsool Kim) presented 'Power of God VI' and showed God's powerful work by which nothing is impossible to congregations during Special Sunday Worship Service. Eastern Gwangju Manmin Church (Pastor Yeonok Jeong) and Sae Gwangju Manmin Church (Pastor Cheoljin Choi) also jumped on the evangelism campaign bandwagon conducting the campaign until the end of May.
The Lord urged us in Luke 14:23 to 'go out into the highways and along the hedges, and compel them to come in, so that my house may be filled.' As written, it is very natural for believers to preach the gospel to pay back God's grace.
