79 nations visit True Mother at Cheon Jeong Gung
August 3rd, 2017
2017 Global Top Gun Youth HJ Cheonwon Special
Workshop Hosted by True Parents (from August 1-21 2017)
Today, August 3, True Mother
welcomed some 1,200 Global Top Gun Youth workshop participants to Cheon Jeong Gung on the third day
of their 21-day workshop. Following FFWPU International Headquarters Secretary-general
Dr. Yoon Yong-hofs opening prayer,
True Mother entered and took her seat at the front. Beautiful bouquets of flowers,
and a full bow were offered by all the young participants. Mrs. Wonju McDevitt then read from the
speech True Mother had given at Madison Square Garden on July 15, and then the newly
appointed International Headquarters Youth and Student Department chief, Mr.
Kim Jae-hyun, asked everyone to stand and welcome True
Mother to speak.
Mother spoke for less than 20 minutes but her words, which were
delivered with great warmth, were punctuated with the participantsf applause and youthful cheering. Mother concluded with the following
message:
Do you come from 79 countries? Your languages and cultures are
different, but you are of the blessed second generation born through True
Parents as pure water without any connection to the secular world. Do you
understand this? [Cheers and applause] The world must be cleansed and
brightened by you. And what more is to be done? You have to become one with
each other!... So do not stop just at creating
happiness for yourselves. You have to expand it. You must become gsaviorsh so that all 7.4 billion
people in the world can receive the love, benefit, and grace of True Parents.
Do you understand? Our future is through you; in you, there is hope. You must
be able to say, gI am happy.h
