True Mother’s Speech 2019 Cheon Il Guk Leaders Assembly Closing Ceremony

The following is an official translation of True Mother’s Speech at the 2019 Cheon Il Guk Leaders Assembly Closing Ceremony on the 11th day of the 1st month in the 7th year of Cheon Il Guk (Friday, February 15, 2019), HJ Heaven and Earth CheonBo Training Center.

I feel excited to see you all. After True Father’s Seonghwa, I was in an indescribable position in which I had been left on my own. Many elder members were around, but I could not consider discussing matters with them because they are unable to observe the providence closely. From the viewpoint of True Parents’ position, and the position Heaven desired for them, the Seonghwa Ceremony should have taken place on a national-level foundation, with the heads of state of all the world’s nations participating.  

However, that did not happen; I was in the position of having to lead the providence alone. It felt as if I had to find a small needle in a sandstorm blowing in a desolate desert, an environment in which I could not open my eyes. … Have you ever felt this? With my heart in this unimaginable state, alone, I found that needle.

The Unification Church and the Family Federation together have a history of more than 50 years. Not everything has been perfect and it has not been easy to sew together the countless scars and cracks and make them whole again. No one has believed in what I wanted to do. People told me that it would not work. That was what happened with Africa. “Why do you choose a Muslim country like Senegal, where we have no foundation, rather than South Africa or other nations where we do?” Everyone was trying to talk me out of it, and blocking me.

Through True Parents, we needed to raise the 7.6 billion people of the world as children of Heavenly Parent. We had no choice but to found the Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity from the lowest position because there was no environment prepared for us. The providence had to begin in an environment unfitting for the Messiah, who had come on the foundation prepared by Christianity over two thousand years.

Moreover, while proclaiming the era of Cheon Il Guk through Foundation Day, I said that Cheon Il Guk should not be just a word. The significance of my proclaiming that I am the only begotten Daughter, the True Mother, is to show to humanity that True Parents have realized, substantially andtangibly, Heaven’s providence on earth. Did you accept that? [Yes!] I think that answer was easy to give, but it probably wasn’t that easy in reality. But now are you convinced? [Yes! Applause.]

After True Father’s Seonghwa, as I promised God, I will achieve national restoration with you before 2020! Leaders of FFWPU-Korea, are you confident? [Yes!] Regional chairs, are you confident? [Yes!] I said that we need to restore at least seven countries. “National restoration” is not just words; in order for Heavenly Parent to remember you, you must achieve it in practice. The people in each region responsible for doing this work must work with the International Headquarters. Regarding [Vision] 2020, you need to become an example for the world, especially centering on Korea.

When you stand in front of Heavenly Parent who has been waiting for you for six thousand years He should be able to say, “But still you are standing here with True Parents.” You have not been able to bear large fruit, but now you will begin to do so. Going through step one, step two and step three, how much do we need to do, when we think about how the world may be in twenty years? Will you say to yourselves, “We can do it”? Can you do it? [Yes!]

So I hope that you will be able to get substantial help from the spiritual world. When I went to Africa, righteous people helped me. Heaven has prepared many righteous people for us. Shouldn’t you inform them? You have to show them. You have to help them to bear fruit, since they have been offering devotions to Heaven for so long.

In commemoration of Foundation Day, today I will change the name of the training center to the HJ Heaven and Earth CheonBo Training Center. The hospital will be renamed HJ Magnolia International Hospital. Cheongpyeong is not an appropriate name, because the significance of this training center is that it raises people who can qualify for registration in the CheonBo Won Genealogy Center and to be people whom Heaven will remember.

Now we have to speak with one voice within our organization. We should become more efficient. In particular, I hope you will let go of self-centeredness and work while thinking of the whole. These are True Mother’s guidelines. Do you understand?

Only one year remains until 2020, but I have watched you go from having the attitude that you couldn’t to having the attitude that you could. Isn’t that so? If this is so, then how much more effort can we offer? I truly wish you all to be people who, investing your heart and soul, will bring great victories and glory to our Heavenly Parent in 2020.
