On April 12, at 6:00 pm, a welcoming meeting for True Parents was held at the church headquarters, where over 1,000 members listened to Father speak for three hours. In his speech, entitled "Proud Unification Church," he emphasized that Moonies have deeper desires than ordinary people. He said we were different from others because the Unification Church teaches us how to meet God and how to live. By following heavenly principles, we must remove Satan and liberate God, thus becoming Father's true representatives. In this way, he said, we can be proud of the Unification Church.

Rev. Kwak's tour was organized by the Korean International Christian Students Association. His speech, which he gave at 10 universities, was entitled 'A New Unification Movement for Overcoming Disunity:' He emphasized that neither democracy nor communism is the system mankind is hoping will bring world peace. A new faith that is wider than any ideology -- Godism -- is being proposed by Rev. Moon as an answer to the tragic division between both camps and between North and South.

Dr. Pak's tour was organized by Korean CARP. His speech, which he gave at 9 universities, was entitled "The Ambitious Will of Koreans: Opening the Age of Unification of North and South:" He reminded his audience that we can discover a valuable truth only when we meet a true teacher. He said that Korean intellectuals today totally lack respect for values, and that Rev. Moon's Unificationism is the only ideology to bring a true understanding of the importance of values back into society.
