  • True Parents' Message and News
    True Parents’ Message and News English Version No. 48 天一國 6年 天曆 6 JULY 2018 ARTICLE ONE Let’s All March Forward Together with Hope By Eiji Tokuno he title of our July 1 rally on was “The 20,000-Person Rally for a Hope- ful March Forward of FFWPU for a Heavenly Japan in 2018.” We had only a month of preparation after we received official permission for it from True Mother. TIt commemorated the beginning of missionary work in Japan on July 15, 1958, when Rev. Choi Bong-choon arrived in Japan from Busan, Korea, dispatched by True Parents. It was the first rally in which we welcomed True Mother officially as Heavenly FFWPU-Japan after the change to a five sub-region structure. In addition, that True Mother effectively announced the start of the last half of 2018 from Japan to the entire world was significant. The rally’s main program had five key features. Needless to say, the most important feature was True Mother’s message. True Mother emphasized the importance of the blessing, which is to connect all 7.5 billion human beings to True Parents and asked all blessed families to succeed in the heavenly tribal messiah mission. The way to national restoration and world restoration will begin on the foundation of our heavenly tribal messiahs’ victories. True Mother requested that Japan invest for the sake of other countries with acknowledgment of the truths of history and as the Mother Nation, as mothers invest everything for their children without any regret or hesitation. True Mother also strongly requested that those in the first generation raise their children and grandchildren properly by bequeathing the first generation’s traditions of attending Heavenly Parent and True Parents, of keeping purity and of practicing for the ideal world within an ideal family.
