One Family Community

Lovin' Life Ministries entered its third year this last August. These past three years have been so amazing, so inspiring, and so incredible that it's becoming difficult to remember what our movement looked like three years ago and where we were in terms of our attitude and spirit. These last three years have truly been a transformative experience for me and my family. I can see it in the faces of our brothers and sisters at Lovin' Life Sunday Service -- a sense of renewal and new conviction in their life of faith and relationship to God and True Parents. We are constantly developing, maturing, and moving forward as children of God, ever striving to stand in the position of a True Son or True Daughter to our True Parents and Heavenly Parent. Most significantly, I have witnessed each of our local communities growing not as separate communities, but as one large, nationwide community of True Brothers and Sisters.

Reverend In Jin Moon's visionary leadership and deep love for our families has truly touched each individual on a heart level and through this progress, one family community here in America is now becoming a reality. The power and impact of Lovin' Life Ministries is being felt and experienced across the nation and even to other parts of the world. In July our brothers and sisters in Africa were able to experience Lovin' Life firsthand. Reverend In Jin Moon is showing us by her example how any door can be opened if we are willing to inherit the true love of God from our True Parents and then live our lives as a natural witness, with heavenly pride and dignity in who we are. Every day I have reason to feel renewed pride in my faith.

Dear brothers and sisters, I hope this new edition of the Unification News illustrates the growth our movement is making towards a vibrant community of faith and propels you forward with hope in your individual pursuit for that true ideal. We are living at the most profound and exciting moment in history. Let's let the whole world know about it!
