The Australian Unified Family becomes a topic in the Melbourne area

The confrontations caused by the elections for the new Federal government in Canberra seem to correspond to the activities of the Unified Family here in Australia.

It is as if the continent slowly is going to wake up and realize that there exists a greater world beyond her borders. But as it stands at the moment, Australia identifies herself more with Asia. Prime Minister Gough Whitlam, who retained his position as Prime Minister, is trying to establish strong relationships with some Asian countries.

Never in her history has Australia been really united and behind her government. Presently the continent consists of six states and two territories, but they are not very united. This disunity is manifested everywhere and it seems to be the reason that the Australians long so much for the strength to find unity and to be a place where people can communicate in harmony and real understanding.

The desire to find the absolute values and to be respected as a person becomes so obvious as soon as a person comes into the Family. Wonderful qualities occur on the surface then.

The Unified Family becomes more and more a topic in the Melbourne area; the sandwich board activities play their part, and the effect is a positive one. We are confident that the mission will expand in the near future. Witnessing work in the streets has resulted in more fruits, as new members have joined the Family.

The Adelaide Family is doing well and fights hard to lay the foundation there. They work with a few positive young people and we hope they will decide for our Father. Adelaide is less busy compared with Melbourne; at 6:00 in the evening the streets in the city are empty, but as in Melbourne the Adelaide members go witnessing in the heart of the city and the people respond and are very friendly.

Our Father has prepared many people here and we will serve and give them everything so they will come into the Family
