Information regarding those candidates who are matched by their Parents:
Please make sure both sides complete their Blessing application in their region (Europe) in time and that both Blessing Departments (in case matched to a candidate in another region) have been informed about the match (Matching report form).
Blessing participants are expected to arrive in Korea on the 22nd of March 2012 and should plan to leave Korea on the 26th of March 2012. We recommend you buy tickets through Wonse that way you will be informed about any changes and it may be possible to fly together in smaller groups.
Information regarding those candidates who wish to be matched by True Parents:
Please make sure to complete your Blessing Application in time and register with the European Second Generation Blessing Department. Only candidates who complete the application in time and qualify for True Parents matching will be able to participate in True Parents matching.
Invited to participate in this matching are all Second Generation who meet the Cheon Il Guk Standard and are between 17 and 24 years old. Those who are over 24, but fulfill ALL other qualifications may apply. We will inform you about whether or not it will be possible for you to attend.
a. Those who are receiving the matching and blessing for the first time. (A person who has cancelled a matching by True Parents or who has been matched by their parents before may NOT participate.)
b. Purity: Those who have had absolutely no girlfriend/boyfriend relationship.
c. Those who have absolute faith to accept True Parents match without question and who are resolved to not break it.
d. Those who are willing to receive an international Blessing (with a person from any nationality).
e. Those who have no special physical or psychological problems.
Please remember only qualified candidates who have completed the Blessing Application in time and received approval from the European Second Generation Blessing Department will be able to attend.
There will be a Workshop for Applicants of True Parents Matching in Korea between the 20th and the 23rd of March 2012 and the matching by True Parents will take place during this time. Only people who are physically present will be able to participate (no picture matching). Therefore applicants for True Parents Matching are expected to arrive in Korea on the 19th of March 2012 and should plan to leave after the Blessing on the 26th of March 2012. We recommend you buy tickets through Wonse that way you will be informed about any changes, have the greatest flexibility and it may be possible to fly together in smaller groups.
All Blessing candidates should prepare a Blessing ring and a dark (black or blue) suit, with a white shirt and a red tie (brothers) or a white wedding dress (sisters).
To order a Blessing ring through Switzerland, please send your ring size to me. The deadline for ordering rings is the 8th of March 2012.
The prices for rings are (Please note updated prices)*:
Woman's yellow 18K gold ring- 435.00 CHF (365 EUR)

Please get in touch with Wonse early if you wish them to arrange your travel and wait for further news. There will be the opportunity to put together small groups from various locations in Europe.
In any case, please keep us informed about your flight schedule. Please send Flight Nr, Date, Arrival and Departure Date and time to and from Korea, Departing City. This way we can inform Korean staff who are organizing the pick-ups from and to the airport.
All European 2nd Generation Matching and Blessing Participants will be located at the Cheong-A Camp in Cheong-Pyeong during their stay in Korea. The address is:
595 Songsan-ri, Seorak-myeon,
gapyeong-gun, Gyeongg-do, Korea
eng.cheongacamp.com
For Immigrations it should be enough to write Chung Pyung training center, but you can also use the full Address.
There will be pick-ups organized at the Airport to the accommodations. When you arrive in Incheon airport and you do not see any of our representatives at the gate, please go right all the way to the end of the arrivals hall, there is the meeting point where our people will be gathered to go to the buses.
Parents and siblings who plan to travel to Korea together with the blessing participants can stay with the group, if they have registered with us in advance. As space will be tight, those that did not register will not be able to stay with the group. They will also need to pay for their accommodation, the exact prices will be announced later. If you need help please contact us. Parents may only stay with the candidates during the Blessing time (22nd until 26th March 2012) not during the time of True Parents matching. For all Blessing participants, the cost for your stay will be covered by your Blessing fee, including the time during the matching.
If you have any questions, please feel free to be in touch with me.
Yours sincerely, Geros Kunkel
