Oh Father! There are many gatherings of people in this world, but in their midst inadequate children have gathered together in the midst of an environment which has nothing to offer.

Oh, Father! There are many gatherings of people in this world, but in their middle,t inadequate children have gathered together amid an environment that has nothing to offer. We are not seeking to possess you, Father, with the standard that you are seeking. Since we seek to repent before you, Father, through the flow of true, deep minds reflecting on our inadequate selves, we earnestly hope and desire that you will allow this to be a time when we mobilize our minds and we athirst for a relationship with your situation.

Father, through your infinite authority and power you have had dominion over this earth and many people, but since we are longing for your mercy and grace more than your power, when we reflect on your words and call you our father, please raise a revolution in our hearts to make our earnest minds able to explode and to want to be held in the embrace of your heart.

Please bring about a change of heart, and please let us be able to be accepted as people who are yours. Since we truly desire to be like that, Father, please come to us here.

Your situation must become our situation; your hope must become our hope; and your heart and our hearts must be able to become one.

And if you are faced with sorrow we should be sorrowful, too, and if you are joyful, we should be joyful, too. Since we have gathered together in this place putting you first, and we are thirsting to become people who can become one with you as substantial beings who are your objects, we earnestly hope and desire that you will please act at this time to eliminate everything which is not appropriate to that.

Please act to raise original minds that are completely able to conform and to be absorbed there, and please act to make us able to be aware that we are your sons and aware that we are your daughters. And earnestly hoping and desiring that you will let us be able to appear unashamed, with the authority of heaven as your children who have been established about your will.

We have humbly prayed in the holy name of the True Parents. Amen.
