[Hankook Ilbo Weekly] The Family Federation Celebrates 1st-Year Anniversary of Foundation Day.

Cosmic Blessing Ceremony, Message of Peace to Humankind

Celebratory events, peace seminars, international conferences, cultural arts performances, service projects: all infused with the message of realizing true love and creating Cheon Il Guk.

The Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (hereafter referred to as the Family Federation) held various events from February 7^th to the 12^th in commemoration of the 1^st Anniversary of Cheon Il Guk Foundation Day.

If Cheon Il Guk is the “true country of peace longed for by all of humankind,” then Foundation Day is the starting point, the basis of a peaceful world. Last year on February 22^nd (January 13^th by the lunar calendar), Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon proclaimed “Cheon Il Guk Foundation Day” as the launching of the country of God and the ideal world of humankind. This year, in commemoration of the 1-year anniversary of the event, various events were held in Seoul and Gapyeong, Gyeonggi-Do.

In addition to the Commemorative Ceremony of the 1^st Anniversary of Cheon Il Guk Foundation Day and the Cosmic Blessing Ceremony, many other celebratory events were held, including peace seminars, international conferences, cultural performances and service projects.
