Father! We know that it is not because of someone's strength that the Unification Church has continued to exist until now.

Father! We know that it is not because of someone's strength that the Unification Church has continued to exist until now. We know that it is due first to your power, and it is due to the foundation of the public accomplishments of the many saints and sages who have paid the price of blood in the historical ages.

We have come to think that these kinds of destined relationships have been formed today because the foundations of the duties of loyalty and filial piety that Jesus Christ offered in his life remain. Furthermore, we know how very hard you worked before us on the way of suffering in the course of history. I know well that before I was lonely, you were lonely first, and before I faced a sorrowful situation, you are my Father who experienced sorrow first.

Now we must realize how precious it is that we are standing in a position to be able to know the destined relationship of true families about your Will today and that you have gone through those kinds of adversities, and have formed the Unification religion and have formed the Unification tribes through many families.

Through realizing the true family, that true family you longed for so much, a true people is formed. And through the traditions of the true family spreading out a true nation is formed. And when, through the destined relationships of the true family, the traditions go beyond the nation out to the world, a true world is formed.

When we think about this amazing fact, we earnestly hope and desire, Father, that you will let us realize clearly at this time that we must prepare a firm foundation of true families which you can remember, and in which you can rest.

When we think about how much value we will have when we collapse, please let us know that the position of blessed families today is an amazing position that determines the internal conditions of the accomplishment of the three-dimensional hope, which can resolve the grief of heaven, resolve the grief of earth, resolve the grief of the True Parents, and not only resolve these three great griefs, but rather resolve the grief of this people, and resolve the grief of our descendants in the future generations, by our giving ourselves.

We have humbly prayed all these things in the holy name of the True Parents.

Amen.
