Happy 12th anniversary to all of the couples celebrating the Interreligious Cross-Cultural Marriage Blessing! 

The late Rev. Dr. Sun Myung Moon and Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon, co-founders of Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (FFWPU) and affectionately known as True Parents, officiated the ceremony at the Hammerstein Ballroom of the Manhattan Center in New York City on January 31, 2009. This was the last Blessing officiated by Rev. Moon in the U.S. before his ascension in 2012.

Rev. Moon demonstrated extraordinary dedication and endurance on this occasion, which was also the date of True Parents’ 90th birthday. He conducted a special Coronations for the Authority and Liberation of God, the King of Kings, in both Korea and the U.S. as well.
