French Report for August 1972

It is with great joy that we see Father’s heart stretching out to the whole world and the dream of beginning a worldwide march towards heaven finally becoming a reality after so much sweat, blood and tears of Our True Parents and our brothers and sisters in Korea. We feel this new foundation beginning to form and we rejoice with Father’s heart that this longed-for desire can be fulfilled.

Lynne Doerfler has sent to our student Michel this month, a wonderful letter concerning her visit with True Parents with a picture of our True Family. The picture brought us such warmth, love and power. Father must have waited so long to have close communication with all his families in the world. We are so deeply grateful for the sacrifice of Our Parents and our family in Korea to build such a foundation in Korea that it can now break out with its light and power to the entire world.

We are continuing to preach in the streets with our boards, and several new members have been won, including a member from Algeria and Morocco. Since it is the tourist season, there are many foreigners in the city. Our centers on the coast have profited from the tourist period to contact people on the beach. The results were extremely successful, bringing 20 people to the lecture on Sunday. · Other centers have been going door-to-door to bring in students. Some of the parents of our new members are showing much interest in the movement and are grateful for the change they have seen in their children. We see many people really prepared and searching for Truth.

This must also be accompanied by a deep realization to change their lives and to serve others and the world. This month, part of the family has been working on the restoration of our new center.at Aulnay, which is a large house. We plan to use this Center to conduct training sessions and eventually have weekend workshops.

Reiner [Vincenz], Barbara [Vincenz], and Henri and Hilde [blanchrd] have attended the· European conference in Holland. The family has had great pleasure· in having Mr. Edward Haskell, Chairman of the Council on Unified Research and Education as speaker for two conferences for the· family on unified science. Mr. Haskell is organizing the First International Conference on Unified Science. The family was so happy to see how even the scientific world is being prepared towards unification. Our horizons have been greatly widened, and we see much more depth in the process of restoration.

We pray ea.ch day that we may be able to help Father’s Providence as directly as · possible. We are proud of our international’ Literary Magazine and Weekly Religion, and hope that we can offer much richer contributions to Father’s work in Korea. The world must be awakened to know that all final fulfillment lies in God’s Providence in Korea.
