BFM Memo: 2020 Special Blessing Ceremony

August 28, 2020

Dear Blessed Central Families, 

We have some exciting developments for the 2020 Special Blessing that True Mother recently announced, which will now take place on October 10, 2020. 

This will be a special Blessing Ceremony for several reasons, especially because it will be the first world-wide Blessing event as the newly established Heavenly Parents Holy Community. True Mother’s heart is to pave the way for the entire world to receive the Marriage Blessing from our Heavenly Parent and True Parents. With the success of the virtual Rally of Hope that took place on August 9, it has become clear that there is no limit to the number of people God can reach. 

Details about the 2020 Special Blessing can be found at bfm.familyfed.org/specialblessing
