Reviving the Spirit of America, One State at a Time
Dr. Chung Sik Yong, regional president of Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (FFWPU), has continued his national tour to revive the spirit of America, visiting 10 states in the Midwest over the next 10 days.
“In Kansas City, I had a very beautiful meeting with community members,” he said. “Our time was short, but I met with key leaders and local clergy.”
From September 29 to October 8, Dr. Yong will be on the road throughout the Midwest, making stops in Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Minnesota, North and South Dakota, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Kentucky.
“I appreciate everyone’s preparation,” said Dr. Yong as he and regional FFWPU leaders gathered to pray at the holy grounds in Kansas City. He emphasized the importance of the holy grounds in every state, established by FFWPU’s co-founders, the late Rev. Dr. Sun Myung Moon and Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon.
The 50-state tour, which began in early August, aims to revive the spirit of America as the nation faces a range of issues amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Yong has met with government and faith leaders across the country as well as American Clergy Leadership (ACLC) pastors who can help revive the spirit of America’s people. The tour has also connected him with many couples and families who are the backbone of society and the nation’s future.

“In Nebraska, I felt overwhelmed by the Omaha Family Church and their giving heart and support of this tour,” said Dr. Yong. “The state leaders and community members there put forth a lot of effort. I was also able to connect with Katherine Anglin, the national coordinator of YAYAM, to discuss our work with Unificationist youth.”
Throughout the tour, Dr. Yong has shared the 2021 goals of FFWPU’s national leadership leading up to Dr. Moon’s December visit to the U.S. In preparation of the year-end event, presentations outline several goals that aim to connect more people with the Marriage Blessing movement, corresponding resources, as well as increase local community activities nationwide.
Dr. Yong visited the holy grounds in Omaha with leaders before heading to Sioux City, Iowa, and Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
