A total of 30,000 people, including approximately 180 National Assembly members from 50 nations gathered for the event, which began with an opening prayer by FFWPU Korea President Kyeung-Seuk Ryu, followed by a cake cutting, a welcoming address by FFWPU International President Sun Jin Moon, congratulatory remarks by Hon. Jose de Venecia, Jr., and concluded with a celebratory song by the FFWPU choir.
FFWPU International President Sun Jin Moon expressed in her address, “Despite 93 years of religious persecution, Rev. Sun Myung Moon witnessed to and united millions of people. Rev. Moon and Dr. Han have carried all of the world’s children on their backs and guided them towards families of peace and love.” The Hon. Jose de Venecia, Jr. pointed out that “North Korea is becoming increasingly provocative. The National Assembly members attending today’s event will discuss realistic and detailed solutions to this problem surrounding North Korea at the International Leadership Conference.” The latter part of the ceremony consisted of a musical entitled, “Butterfly,” which depicted the missionary activities of the FFWPU in Eastern Europe from 1970 to 1980. Meanwhile, the FFWPU is preparing to present scholarships totaling 10 billion won to 2,000 recipients on the 14th at Cheong Shim International Youth Training Center..... [See the original story] |
