Members and Leaders of the Heavenly Parent’s Holy Community Women’s Federation for World Peace!
I am happy and truly grateful to be able to meet in person with all of you whom the True Mother of Heaven, Earth and Humankind always longs to see, at this meaningful occasion of the thirtieth anniversary of the founding of WFWP.
I feel this occasion commemorating WFWP’s thirtieth anniversary is truly special. We are holding this thirtieth anniversary celebration at the HJ Global Art Center in this Cheonwon Complex, which True Parents and all members of the Unification movement developed with tears and sincere devotion.
All the leaders of Cheon Il Guk are gathered from around the world to celebrate, after not being able to come together for so long due to the Covid-19 pandemic that lasted for over two years. We have gathered to make new resolution to complete the providence, attending the True Mother of Heaven, Earth and Humankind, the Only Begotten Daughter who our Heavenly Parent sent to mankind to complete the 6,000 years of providential history.
Above all, when I think about the fact that True Mother offered sincere devotion to prepare for today’s event, I realize that Heaven’s love for WFWP is truly great.
Therefore, I sincerely hope that not only the leaders and members of WFWP, but all of us gathered here today, will take to heart the importance of the responsibility we each have in this golden age of history, and that this will be the time for us to start anew, determined to become the children that Heaven can believe in and truly be proud of.
Respected Leaders of Cheon Il Guk!
On April 10, 1992, I attended the founding event of WFWP held at the Jamshil Olympic Main Stadium in Seoul. Although it was raining heavily, the stadium was filled with women actively participating in the construction of world peace. I will never forget True Mother’s clear voice echoing over the women leaders who gathered from all over Korea and 70 countries around the world, yearning for the start of a new era of women.
True Mother teaches that women’s unhappiness stems from women’s lack of understanding of how important their original mind and the role they received from God is. This made me recognize my value as a woman in a new way. Furthermore, she sublimated the traditionally cherished virtues of sacrifice and
service to a true love on a global level that gives and gives again for humanity. I learned the importance of the role of mothers in the historical dimension, where women conceive, give birth to, and nurture the future of humanity itself.
Since 2009, I have been fully involved in the various field activities of WFWP which aims to build peaceful families and societies that lead to the construction of a peaceful world. I was able to experience how the basic philosophy of “women making peace through the power of true love living for the sake of others” became the driving force that developed WFWP into an NGO which operates in 120 countries around the world and holds the highest grade in the UN. I met various members and leaders in every continent and in every region of Korea who participate in the field activities of WFWP. When I listened to the stories of these women, who were like my mothers and sisters, and worked with them, I was able to confirm the power of women’s motherly love. The courage and strength to continually love and care for the poor and marginalized people of the world begins with the heart of an earnest mother who does not think of herself first, but is willing to sacrifice everything for her children and her family.
True Mother, the Mother of Peace, has been a model for the members of WFWP, and following her teachings, the members of the WFWP around the world have never given up in their role as mothers of peace, despite the difficulties of reality. Centering on the maternal love that is inherent to women, WFWP has established and operated schools for children and women, educating them on true family values and providing technical assistance for relief work and economic independence.
With the leadership of love that lives for the sake of others, WFWP has devoted all their efforts to reconciliation, exchange, and the training of future women leaders.
For the past thirty years, the members of WFWP have single-mindedly practiced motherly love, creating the history of true love for future generations. I too am happy and proud to have walked the path of love together with WFWP, attending True Mother. And I offer my heart of gratitude and love once again to True Mother for historically giving women all over the world the opportunity to become daughters of Heaven.
Thank you, True Mother. I promise that all of us leaders will unite and move forward into the world with the same mind and heart as True Mother. And I sincerely hope and support that WFWP will become the best providential institution that conveys the love of the True Mother of Heaven, Earth, and Humankind to all parts of the world.
Congratulations. Thank you very much.
