An Evening with Pastor Lee and Brian Ivie

Pastor Lee Jong Rak and the 'The Drop Box' producer Mr. Brian Ivie came and shared their stories on February 7, 2015 at the Grace Korean Church (은혜한인교회)

The above statment was made by Pastor Lee, in the movie 'The Drop Box', in which the pastor adopted 19 children that came through the Baby Box. Most of the children were special needs children that were shunned by the Korean society. He shared how he received an inspiration from his son Eun Man, who was born severely deformed, to be able to reach out to the needy children. 

Brian Ivie, a college senior at USC read about Pastor Lee's story in LA Times, and decided to do a documentary on Pastor Lee and the Baby Box mainly to use it as a vehicle to launch himself on the road to fame. But he had no idea that Pastor Lee and his children would transform Brian into a new person.

The 400+ audience was blessed by the messages shared

A few stayed afterwards to take a group photo

The event progressed with many in attendance
