Elder Lee said, “Every saint shall avoid the Dualistic Thinking and worship God through living a mission-oriented life.” He emphasized that medical ministry itself can testify Jesus to the people and we need to approach with holistic way as medical professionals. Lee said, “The mission of the past only focused on foreigners evangelizing natives and it was one-directional and missionary oriented most of the time.

He said about “Mission Field Centered Ministry”, “Coworker Mission” and “the cultivation of native leadership” and “early transfer” and “activation of team mission”, “Training of sending missionary.”
