Senior Deaconess Sinae Kim, 59, Parish 32, Manmin Central Church

Though I am not 60 yet, I had gum disease and my teeth moved quite a lot. Two years ago, I had to have all lower molars pulled except for two. I was supposed to keep having dental treatment, but it would cost me around 9,000 dollars. It was an unaffordable amount to me, so I just stopped receiving the treatment.

I used to swallow food without chewing, which often caused me to have indigestion problems. When I talked to others or ate with others, I always covered my mouth with my hand. When I smiled, I was like an old lady. When I visited my district members' houses as the district leader, led district meetings, had meals with the members, and evangelized people, I had many discomforts.

Meantime, Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee started to give financial support to the members who are old or in need of help so that they could receive dental treatment. I also received the support. From June 2018, I had six artificial teeth implanted and five teeth wrapped by dental crowns.

When I had six artificial teeth implanted, I had pain after the anesthesia wore off. But I received Senior Pastor's prayer recorded on the Automated Response System after attending Daniel Prayer Meeting. Then, the pain was gone and I was at peace. I did not get any bruise, which made me feel like God consoled my old days when I had suffered due to my teeth.

My dental treatment was completed within three months. I can eat any food I want now, and my husband and people around me say I look better. I am so happy. I used to be diffident but became confident in every matter. Now I am working confidently as a district leader. Hallelujah!

I give all thanks to the God of love and the Lord who satisfied my needs.
