The Words of the Hwang Family

Outreach to our Clans Receives New Emphasis

"From the providential viewpoint, this moment in time is without a doubt the most important one since the beginning of history. We have 874 days left in our work for the providence. If we were to calculate January 13, 2013, foundation day, in relation to True Father's life, viewing his birth as the beginning of a twenty-four-hour day, and January 2013 as the end of the same day, it is now 11:43 PM." With this introductory statement, Dr. Sun-jo Hwang, embarked on his speech to inaugurate, at True Parents' behest, the Tribal Messiah Federation for World Peace.

Despite the nature of his opening statement, the audience held many people who were not members of our faith. The event was meant to set the stage for the actual coming together of the Cain and Abel realms, for leaders of clans or tribes to work alongside Unificationist tribal (clan) messiahs to further the cause of peace.

Thus, more than 1,200 ambassadors for peace, fifty leaders of Korean clans (extended family groups whose members are spread throughout Korea), dignitaries such as Mr. Ju-sun Park, a National Assemblyman and leader of the Democratic Party and other leaders in secular society had come together with boonbongwangs, church leaders and members at the Millennium Hall in Central City on August 23 for the launch of the organization.

In welcoming everyone to the event, Rev. Yong-seok Song said, "Through the Tribal Messiah Federation for World Peace, launched with your encouragement and participation, the representatives of each tribe will endeavor, in all nations, to resolve conflicts and disputes...and lay the foundation to build a world of peace."

Mr. Ho-hang Hwang, deputy chairman of the Hwang Central Clan Committee, emphasized, "Modern society perceives the family simply rather than dimensionally, and so we are becoming an egoistic society whose members only think about themselves.... Through the clans, the vertical and horizontal relationships need to be reestablished multi-dimensionally."

Dr. Sun-jo Hwang, who was being inaugurated to lead the new federation, strongly requested the blessed families, ambassadors for peace, and clan representatives jointly establish the "sovereignty of goodness" as the basis for global peace. He concluded by exhorting all present to dedicate themselves "heart and soul for the final work of the providence... during these remaining two years and five months."

The program concluded with representatives of continents and clans signing the founding declaration, which included the statement that "The community of clans (tribes)...is the basis for a peaceful human community and for interaction that permits the recovery of our original human nature and relationships."

The establishment of the new organization is a reminder to us all that we are well into the final hour for the work that needs to be done among our extended families.
