Opening
Greetings everyone! This is the HJ Global News for this week, brought to you from Korea!
On July 16, True Parents hosted a Special Leaders Meeting for the Settlement of a Heavenly Unified Korea at the Yongpyong Resort near the East Coast. As we will see, Mother blessed an underground natural water spring on Mt. Balwang and dedicated a newly constructed Skywalk.
We also have a special report on the upcoming August 9 “Online Rally of Hope for the Firm Settlement of a Heavenly Unified World,” which is predicted to draw as many as one million participants worldwide. If we are committed, we may find this initiative can bring our movement to a new level for the sake of the future. [Let’s watch together.]
1. True Mother’s Activities
Special Leaders’ Meeting for the Firm Settlement of a Heavenly Unified Korea
July 16, Greenpia, HJ Magnolia Yongpyong Resort
It’s summer in HJ Magnolia Yongpyong Resort, where the trees are ever green!
In June, True Parents appointed Heavenly Korea’s district leaders as commanders-in-chief and entreated them to devote their energies with life-or-death determination for the last seven months of 2020 to open the era of the victorious Heavenly Unified Korea within two years. On July 16, True Mother held a Special Leaders’ Meeting for the Firm Settlement of the Heavenly Unified Korea at the newly renovated and renamed HJ Magnolia Yongpyong Resort.
Church leaders and leaders of other providential organizations in Korea, who had held fifteen passionate inter-organizational meetings over the past two months, participated with one heart, and gave reports expressing much hope for the future.
Lee Hyeon-yeong, Secretary General of UPF Heavenly Korea
A heart-stirring book review has emerged on True Mother’s autobiography, written by an important Korean analyst, who has for thirty years analyzed written materials for the Korean Intelligence Service.
He grasped that every part of True Mother’s life interlinks with Korean history.
We thus can understand why True Mother said to us, “My autobiography is arming us well! Please distribute it!” And, she added, “Ask readers to write their reflections.”
Park Yeong-bae, Vice President of FFWPU Heavenly Korea
East Changwon Church Leader Son Gi-hyeok’s congregation has grown 2.5 times larger in the five years since he became the pastor.
Since the 10.14 Blessing some years ago, no family has been inactive.
We have another person to introduce to you: Winnie Lisa! /
This Filipino missionary has witnessed to 43 couples. / This gives us hope.
The fire of the Holy Spirit is blazing.
The fire of the Jeongshimwon Prayer Hall Meetings, which were started on True Mother’s initiative, is spreading to towns, villages and urban wards /
Some 1,200 people have offered passionate prayers through the online prayer meetings. /
After listening to all the reports, True Mother emphasized our need to lead lives deeply immersed in hyojeong -- filial devotion.
True Mother’s Message
We are now at the moment of truth. We have set our goal. Brothers and sisters cannot be divided. We need to be united. True Parents’ wish is to realize Heavenly Parent’s dream on earth. It should not remain as theory like history recorded in the Bible but be realized in substance. The True Parents of humanity, found and established six thousand years after the Fall, should set the example of living on earth in attendance to Heavenly Parent. /
This is also the case with regard to Heaven’s providence. You may have heard the teachings of the Divine Principle and understood it in theory /
Even if you live thousands of miles away from them physically /
You need to lead lives in which you experience the feeling of dwelling and thinking in the center of True Parents’ heart.
I don’t know what you have gained from what I have said so far, but my life has been one in which I believed Heavenly Parent to be my father from the moment of my birth and I have lived 77 years knowing Heavenly Parent as my parent. /
For me, this process involved patience and endurance that you could not even imagine, in which I thought only of Heavenly Parent. Heaven alone knows this. Please don’t talk about this and that theoretically. During my time on earth, while I am still living, I must realize Heavenly Parent’s wish and give birth to humanity through Heavenly Parent’s bosom. I need to guide humankind. That is True Parents’ responsibility. /
From now on, you should use the term ‘hyojeong’ in every project and product the Foundation and other organizations create. The name of the water that springs from Mt. Balwang is Hyojeong Su. /
In this Cheon Il Guk era, every person who drinks this Hyojeong Su will be able to experience Heavenly Parent and True Parents. Such is the grace and blessing of this water. /
This is the grace and love Heavenly Parent has bestowed on True Parents.
It is hyojeong (filial devotion to Heaven). As Cheonbo families, you need to teach your tribes about hyojeong. Once you do so, miracles will naturally occur.
True Parents’ love is such that they wish to share with us the grace and love that Heaven infinitely bestows!
[Banquet Victory Toast]
Victory, victory, victory of the heavenly, unified settlement!
After the meeting, the leaders took time to relax at an evening banquet, followed by a ceremony in which True Mother directed the illumination of the Magnolia Peace Fountain and Mt. Balwang Castle.

Magnolia Peace Fountain and Mt. Balwang Castle Illumination Ceremony
July 16
The festival of light embroidered the summer night at Yongpyong! At HJ Magnolia Yongpyong Resort, where the environment is being enhanced in order to create a global landmark illuminated by True Parents’ love and appreciation of hyojeong, Cheon Il Guk leaders took the opportunity to harmonize with one another while attending True Parents and to resolve to become beacons of light in a dark world.
HJ MoNa Park Dedication Ceremony
July 17, HJ MoNa (Mother + Nature) Park, Mt. Balwang
The next day, True Parents presided over the dedication of HJ MoNa Park, newly built on Mt. Balwang.
Just as life grows in the watery environment of a mother’s womb, water is the source of life. True Parents therefore named the water springing from bedrock to the summit of Mt. Balwang as HyoJeong Water (HyojeongSu), and blessed the mountain to become a significant site of Mother Nature, embracing like the bosom of a mother.
True Parents’ Benediction
When you created all of heaven and earth and humankind, you bestowed the grace of the great love in your bosom. /
On this day, as we gaze upon this beautiful scenery of Mt. Balwang, we can once again realize the heartrending circumstances under which you, our Creator, sought to realize the Kingdom of Heaven on earth through humankind six thousand years ago. We cannot resist offering our deepest gratitude for your infinite love. /
All the staff members working here are striving to unite and create a picture that leads us to the beautiful kingdom of heaven on earth as you have dreamed of in your providence. /
Dear Heavenly Parent, thank you for allowing us to invest our utmost effort and for guiding us to create this masterpiece today. We love you. /
From now on, not only the Korean people but all the rest of the world will visit this place and drink this Hyojeong Water and pledge and resolve to fulfill the duties of filial piety and loyalty toward you in this providence to realize your great purpose of creation. /
We hope and pray that this HJ MoNa (Mother + Nature) Park will prove that our Heavenly Parent and Creator is with us, and that all peoples in the world will come flocking here to sing praises to you, Heavenly Parent, as expressions of their joy and gratitude. Dear Heavenly Parent, please bless this park to become a holy and beautiful garden.
Mt. Balwang “Gi” Skywalk Dedication Ceremony and Peace Road Launching Ceremony
July 16, Mt. Balwang Skywalk, Yongpyeong
During this time, True Parents also presided over the dedication of a majestic skywalk, unveiled on the summit of Mt. Balwang at 1,458 meters above sea level.
At the skywalk, which is the highest in Korea and presents a view over the grand 백두대간Baekdudaegan Mountains, leaders released dove balloons, made from eco-friendly materials and representing peace, into the northern skies. Thus, they featured in the ceremony to launch One Korea!—the Peace Road 2020 Grand Journey of Unification, and took a grand step forward toward a Heavenly Unified Korea and a Heavenly Unified world.
Victory! Victory! Victory for Peace Road 2020!
2. Online Rally of Hope for the Firm Settlement of a Heavenly Unified World
Since the founding of Cheon Il Guk, True Mother has personally walked the 7-year course for the settlement of Cheon Il Guk and triumphed in restoring at least seven nations and denominations. Finally, Mother proclaimed the settlement of Cheon Il Guk and dedicated this victory to Heavenly Parent and True Father in heaven as a sacred gift for the centenary of True Father’s birth and the 60th anniversary of True Parents’ Holy Wedding!
I proclaim the settlement of Cheon Il Guk in 2020!
On the victorious foundation of Vision 2020, True Mother proclaimed a new 7-year course for the settlement of the Heavenly Unified Korea and the Heavenly Unified world. Moreover, she has newly brought the Cheon Il Guk citizens under the name Heavenly Parent’s Holy Community and initiated Vision 2027.
On this foundation, True Mother said that all peoples in the world should move toward the one unified world under Heavenly Parent, led by Heavenly Parent’s Holy Community, and that, to this end, the ‘Rally of Hope for the Settlement of a Heavenly Unified World’ would be held on August 9, 2020.
The Rally of Hope for the Firm Settlement of a Heavenly Unified World is an important providential rally to firmly establish the global foundation for the proclamation and settlement of Heavenly Parent’s Holy Community. Furthermore, it marks our setting out to accomplish the settlement of the Heavenly Unified Korea and the Heavenly Unified world. Through it, the 7-year course toward Vision 2027 will actually begin.
In accordance with True Mother’s teachings, all Cheon Il Guk blessed families should endeavor to make the Rally of Hope for the Firm Settlement of a Heavenly Unified World a success, and uphold the sacred name of ‘Heavenly Parent’s Holy Community’. They should also boldly carry out the true family movement to establish Heavenly Parent’s children and the world peace movement to establish the environment of Cheon Il Guk, in order to bring to settlement a Heavenly Unified Korea, and fulfill the mission of bringing to settlement the Heavenly Unified world under Heavenly Parent’s sovereignty.
The world is in chaos due to the absence of [adherence to] absolute values focused on the Heavenly Parent.
In particular, in this present time, the coronavirus pandemic caused by human greed has given birth to a trend of estrangement and nationalism. At this time, the Online Rally of Hope for the Firm Settlement of a Heavenly Unified World will present a vision for a ‘community of one family of humanity’ with sustainable ‘hope’ by ‘moving forward’ without ceasing.
The Rally of Hope will begin with congratulatory messages from denominational leaders, a prayer by Rev. Paula White who is a special religious advisor to the US president, keynote speeches from the leaders of nations including Senegal’s President Macky Sall, as well as a special message that True Mother will deliver to a million global citizens in 190 nations.
In particular, based on the ‘Resolution in Support of Peace and Unification on the Korean Peninsula,’ signed by more than five thousand leaders from the fields of politics, religion, academia, media and finance who attended World Summit 2020, the Online Rally of Hope will propose a new vision, for the next hundred years, of a Heavenly Unified Korea and thus share with the world the importance of the reunification of Korea.
The Mother of Peace, who is wiping away humanity’ tears!
We will achieve the victory of Vision 2027 and the settlement of a Heavenly Unified world so that a world in which all peoples live together in joy attending the Heavenly Parent can emerge.
Moon Yoon-guk’s Hanggol Arari Publication Ceremony and Seminar
July 2, Jeongseon-gun, Gangwon Province
The Publication Ceremony and Seminar for Moon Yoon-guk’s book, 항골 아라리 Hanggol Arari, hosted by the Patriot Moon Yoon-guk Memorial Association, attracted more than two hundred leaders, including Mr. Jeon Hong-pyo, Chief of Jeongseon County.
Like many of Father’s lineal relatives, True Father’s great uncle Moon Yoon-guk was born in Father’s hometown of Jeongju, now in North Korea. He was a graduate of Pyongyang Seminary. While working as a pastor, he spread the March 1st Independence Movement in the local North Pyeongan Province. He donated his family fortune, an enormous sum at the time, to the Korean Provisional Government in Shanghai, China, to aid the independence movement. These patriotic acts won him recognition: posthumously in 1990, he received a commendation and medal from the Korean government.
Believing in education as a movement for people’s independence, he spent the last part of his life nurturing young students. His book contains his 130 poems (written in Chinese characters) and some memoirs, and is now available in bookstores. The autobiographical section clearly displays his cherished hopes for peace and unification, and his patriotic spirit.
Closing
We are embarking on a hopeful 7-year course toward the settlement of a heavenly unified world!
May we bear the fruits of our lifelong commitment as owners of Cheon Il Guk – and if we are really joint owners of God’s kingdom, we can invite many others to join us! Indeed, True Parents teachings, which have reached some 190 countries, explain that the Kingdom of Heaven is not where we go after ending our life on earth but something we must cultivate while we are still here.
This concludes week’s HJ Global News. Thank you for being with us today.
