Dear:

On behalf of the Interreligious and International Federation for World Peace (IIFWP) and the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification International (FFWPUI) it is my privilege to invite you to attend an international seminar on "True Families as the Foundation for World Peace in the New Millennium" to be held in Washington, D.C. at the Sheraton National Hotel November 27-30, 1999. This global conference will include more than 200 participants representing over sixty-two nations. It is our sincere hope that you will be able to attend this seminar as our special guest.

The IIFWP and the FFWPUI were founded by the Rev. and Mrs. Sun Myung Moon. The purpose of the IIFWP, established on February 6, 1999 in Seoul, Korea, is to encourage and support the efforts of world leaders representing governmental, religious, cultural and educational institutions in advancing solutions to pressing world problems. The FFWPUI, founded in 1996, has as its purpose to promote the ideals of strong, God-centered families as fundamental to the creation of peace in our societies, nations and the world.

The program for this seminar will focus on presentations of the thought and teachings of the Rev. Moon, allowing participants an opportunity to engage in serious consideration of the vision of the man who stands behind the many remarkable institutions which so many people around the world have come to know and respect. Topics will range from the spiritual life, ideal marriage and family, to the ideal society. The schedule will allow for substantial dialogue and small-group discussions among the participants, including political, religious, academic and social leaders from around the world.

The sponsors will cover the cost of your round-trip airfare on a direct flight at the most economical fare available to our official conference travel agent, Go World Travel. In addition, we will provide for your hotel room on a double-occupancy basis, your meals during the conference, and your ground transportation from the airport to the conference hotel. All other personal, incidental costs will be your own responsibility. Please RSVP by sending your completed response form at your very earliest convenience, and at the latest, on or before November 18, 1999. If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Seminar Secretariat in Washington, D.C.

Sincerely yours,

Rev. Chung Hwan Kwak
Chairman
