HSA Celebrates 65 Years
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Sixty-five years ago today, on May 1, 1954, True Father first established the Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity, in a very humble house, but with a grand vision encompassing the entire world.
True Father told us many times about the mission of the Holy Spirit Association and its significant providential role:
The first house where we displayed the Unification Church sign was a small shanty. The entrance had three gates. People who were tall and wide like me had to enter sideways, with our heads down. It was there that we mounted the sign, “Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity.” It is an enormous task to unite Christianity on earth, and yet this was an association that aspired to unite Christianity not only throughout the physical world but in the spiritual world too. Isn’t this a formidable vision? (Chambumo Gyeong, Book 3, Chapter 3, Section 1, No. 8)
Our mission as the Holy Spirit Association has always been to unite Christianity. And now is the harvest time of the Providence. Last April, at the City of Refuge in Los Angeles, we heard Bishop Noel Jones declare that True Mother is the one raised by God to unite everyone. He and his congregation truly welcomed True Mother with open heart.
True Parents’ foundation with Christianity has been flourishing and rising to new heights in America. True Father in heaven and True Mother on earth are making miracles, just as True Mother told us would happen when we unite with her.
True Mother has reminded us that as we fulfill our responsibility as Heavenly Tribal Messiahs, we will be able to embrace Christianity and restore America. With our mind right on target, let us move forward with double speed to offer Heavenly Parent and True Parents a unified restored nation and world.
True Mother is coming back to America and will be in Las Vegas on June 22, when we will have another great celebration with our brothers and sisters of the Christian faith, building on our growing unity and friendship. Let’s continue to make miracles together with True Parents.
God Bless you and your families,
Ray McCready

I think that by the time the first sign was hung on the eaves of the small house in Korea, True Father had already come several times to the brink of death in his course, and had acquired a huge vision and the spirit of “we can do this… as God will help us if we put forth the effort…”
