FFWPU USA Blessing and Family Ministry: In Memory of Chantal Marie Simone Masuda

Chantal-Marie was born in November 1952 into a family of eight, the only daughter among seven brothers, as the sixth child. Her parents were Olivier and Agnès Pajani. From a young age, Chantal-Marie attended Catholic schools, nurturing a foundation of faith and devotion that would guide her throughout her life.

Around the age of 20, a simple pamphlet from her cousin became the spark that led Chantal- Marie to join the Unification Church movement in France. From that moment, she dedicated her life to pursuing God’s dream of uniting humanity as one family under God. While actively participating in outreach activities in France, she experienced a serious car accident that left lasting injuries to her lower back. Despite these physical challenges, her spirit remained unshaken.

Her spiritual journey continued with her matching/engagement to Masahide Masuda in the United Kingdom in 1978 and participation in the Blessing Ceremony at Madison Square Garden in 1980. Following the Washington Rally that same year, Chantal emigrated to the United States, joining the IOWC evangelism team to further spread God’s word.

Chantal-Marie began her married life in 1983 in New Jersey, dedicating herself wholeheartedly to raising her children. She had six children in total. First were Hiromitsu and Claire, and later twins, Sun-il and Myung-il, whom she lovingly bore to provide a family for a couple without children, ultimately offering them as adopted children to her spiritual children, Miguel and Françoise Cano. Ilseuk and Yong-Sung were born later.

Her family life spanned homes in New Jersey, the New Yorker Hotel, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, and finally Columbus, Ohio. Throughout, she invested tirelessly by nurturing her family with care, patience, and love.

Chantal-Marie’s service extended far beyond her home. In the late 1990s, she launched WAIT (Washington AIDS International Team) activities in Ohio, serving as one of the leaders for several years. She also spearheaded the Pure Marriage Project, creating educational PowerPoints and videos to spark the Pure Love Movement, contributing to outreach and educational efforts.

She taught Sunday School, actively participated in health initiatives such as Young Living essential oils, and visited churches as part of her mission. Her approach was quiet, steady, and deeply educational, reflecting her thoughtful and dedicated nature.

Chantal-Marie was known for her pure heart, unwavering passion, and deep love for God.

Though at times her words or manner could be misunderstood, she never held grudges and always acted with sincerity. She stood firm in her convictions, even in the face of misunderstanding, and sought to guide others with care and integrity. Her husband recalled her courage, humility, and steadfast love as among her most admirable qualities.

Chantal-Marie’s life was a testament to faith, devotion, and the quiet but powerful impact of a loving heart. Her legacy lives on in her family, her spiritual children, and all whose lives she touched.
