Elder Kwanggyu Ko (Director of Research Center in Mirae M&H)

Elder Kwanggyu Ko and his family


I graduated from College of Engineering in Seoul National University with a bachelor degree in mechanical design and earned my Master in Pohang University of Science and Technology in 1990. After that I started my career smoothly at Samsung Electronics with my focus on the research and development of its products. In 1993, Senior Deaconess Hyungjung Lee and I were married and we had our daughter, Gayung, and our son, Jungwoo. In July, 1998, I registered in Manmin Central Church through my wife's prayer and suggestion.

My wife said, when my daughter Gayung turned 5, she had seen a ghost and felt afraid of it. I hadn't believed in the existence of ghosts and hadn't given it any thought before. But it became a reality when it happened to my daughter. So, we went to Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee and received his prayer. Since then, she hasn't seen any ghosts.

It had not been easy for me to keep the whole Sabbath in my life, but through this incident I experienced the living God. My team in Samsung often worked overtime at night or even all night. At times I worked on Sunday.

So, I started to work much harder during weekdays to keep the whole Sabbath so that there was no problem in the overall work schedule of the team. I had done so steadily, and in the end I got recognition from my team and company. As a result, I came to be able to keep the whole Sabbath. I tried my best to serve, sacrifice, and act in the Word of God. Then, I achieved recognition and heard compliments from people around me and I came to be full of happiness and joy.

God delighted in these small deeds of mine and blessed me. In 2000, I moved to another portable sound system development company and became a director in the Research Center whose development team alone has more than 30 researchers. In October, 2002, I made an offering for mission work just before Dr. Lee left for India to lead 2002 India Miracle Healing Prayer Festival and received his prayer. For the following three months, amazing works happened to me.

From Minister's Award of the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy in 2002 Korea Technology Exposition; Excellence Award in the field of Design Administration in 2002 Korea Design & Brand Competition; the President's Award in 2002 Venture Business Korea; Design Award in 2003 World Design Forum; to Technical Innovation Award in 2003 Electronics Exposition, USA! I came to receive as many as five awards that were quite meaningful and prestigious at home and abroad. Hallelujah!

On August 1, 2004, I received Dr. Lee's prayer for blessings of the company I was working for at that time. In those days, the company had tried to be listed on the KOSDAQ for several years, but had failed. But on the morning after I received Dr. Lee's prayer, I heard that the company was successfully listed on the KOSDAQ! It was told that all the negotiations had been wrapped up by midnight. I could see that all complicated problems were unraveled right after the time of the prayer and then the negotiation ran well and it was successfully closed by midnight.

Since 2008, I have worked for a wireless internet sharer development company. I prayed in Daniel Prayer Meeting and relied on God all the time, and God blessed me to develop the world's first new product in a short period of time. The product was certified in South Korea in 2009 and in Russia and Japan in 2010. Its annual turnover reached 10 billion won—about 10 million US dollars.

My family offers up prayers of thanksgiving to God every day because we know it is the great love of God and His blessing to lead us to the precious church and shepherd. Moreover, my father, who used to be busy with ancestral rites as the eldest son of the eldest son's family, registered in my church with my mother. And he even became a deacon and she became a deaconess.

I give all thanks and glory to God who has guided my life in such a blessed way.
