17th Anniversary of International Cross-Cultural Marriage Blessing

Happy anniversary to the 1,147 couples who participated in the International Cross-Cultural Marriage Blessing on Dec. 29, 2005! True Parents conducted a “gyocha blessing” — or “cross-cultural” Marriage Blessing ceremony between all cultures, races, and religions — at Cheongpyeong Heaven and Earth Training Center in Korea.

With this ceremony, True Father also allowed divorced spouses to be reblessed. As he matched young Unificationist couples, and older Unificationist couples, he gave responsibility to all FFWPU continental directors to heal families through matching previously blessed couples with one another. He stated that grace was now open for all candidates.

Congratulations to all the couples celebrating their blessing anniversary!
