Urgent Regional Director’s Memo

Dear sub-region leaders, National leaders and members

I would like to report to you what is going on in Korea.

Today is the 7.1 Jeoul Day,( Declaration Day of God’s Eternal Blessing) you must have a day of deep prayer for True Father. We had a very historic day of 7.1. It was our greatest grace to be able to see True Mother at the room of the hospital where True Father has been staying. Before going to the hospital, we did not expect that we could see True Mother. So I felt True Mother’s deep concern to the members of the world. This was the first time that leaders could see True Mother at the hospital. After we offered standing bow to True Parents, True Mother started to speak gently with small voice. Since True Mother has been attending True Father from the beginning

for 24 hours without taking rest, She looked so tired. International President Hyung Jin Nim with his wife and Kook Jin Nim also with his wife were attending True Parents with sincere devotion. Regarding True Mother’s message, official announcement will be sent soon, but I would like to share some of the important parts with you. With these words, we must re-determine for D-Day.

True Mother’s Word (personal memo.) I did not want to have this situation, but we have this critical situation. (True Mother tried to avoid this situation, but now we have) You all know True Father’s personality. (this means that True Father pushed himself so much) True Father spoke sometimes that He has a lot to do in the spirit world. You all must achieve your mission before you go there.

Wherever He may be (physical world or physical world), we must keep going. We have no HAULT. Our dedication is not enough. True Father still remains in difficult situation. Please make dedication for Him. Members of UC should not tremble about this matter. We must keep going. We have no HAULT. Prepare for D-Day with utmost (maximum) dedication with strong determination.

After the meeting with True Mother, Dr. Peter Kim gave us the explanation about the situation of True Father who is still in the ICU according to recent time order. He explained so well in detail that it was difficult for me to report to you. According to his explanation, the doctors are expecting the recovery of True Father’s lung and kidney functions.

Since True Father is at the ICU, nobody can enter there without the permission from a medical doctor. The time True Children can see is also very short and limited. In most of the cases, the person who is under this kind of situation is be able to hear, but can not speak freely. Listening Dr. Peter Kim’s explanation, all the regional directors made stronger determination for D-Day. *)*)/
