The Holy Spirit Can Change Our Heart
Jacinta Kalama

As Kenyan members, we were running here and there to prepare to receive the great blessing of Rev. Hyung-jin Moon's visit on behalf of Africa. On the evening of February 26, our international president arrived and went to the Safari Park Hotel. He was scheduled to meet the members the following day at Sunday service.

We were in church early for the service, which would start at 10:00 am. Everyone seemed eager and excited. Sunday service began promptly, with Hyung-jin nim's captivating presentation on the Fibonacci Spiral. It was so interesting that to this day, I have been making summarized presentations to whomever I meet.

Shortly after the presentation, the Holy Spirit Healing Service began. Hyung-jin nim explained to us that we shouldn't think about ourselves but focus on giving energy to our True Parents. As we sang Chum Bumo Him eog mansei, I started to cry, tears streaming down my cheeks. For at least twenty minutes, we continued the chanting.

Hyung-jin nim had asked us to cross our hands on our chest. When he said, "Receive the Holy Spirit," the Holy Spirit moved my hands a little from my chest and I was bent from my waist, moving in circles with my eyes closed. I was moved around in this way several times in darkness, and then suddenly there was light and I was moved around several more times. When the Holy Spirit stopped moving me, my lips were quivering and I was facing the back of the room. I was astonished. Later I coughed out a lot of phlegm. After this, I felt great love in my heart and the desire to greet brothers and sisters. I would even hug and say encouraging words to sisters that I hadn't felt close to.

Since I joined the church in 1994, I had had only one spiritual experience. This was my second. Yet, I had a another experience, during Hoon Dok Hae at the Safari Park Hotel, again with Rev. Hyung-jin Moon, while giving energy to our beloved True Parents.

We had done our morning exercises from 2:30 am and then had sat down cross-legged with our bodies perfectly still, meditating for thirty minutes. We began singing Chan, Bumo nim eog mansei. Again, my lips began to quiver and I was overcome by the Holy Spirit. A beautiful bright light and calmness made me feel very peaceful. Soon, I was moved around and around, and the next thing I knew, I was moved in slow motion to lie down. I lay on the legs of the brother behind me with my hands spread apart. My legs were still crossed.' Some heat moved to my legs and they began shaking vigorously. Heat was moving from my thigh to my ankle. After a while, the heat there went away. It travelled through my body to my eyes. When I felt it in my eyes, I woke with a start.

My husband, who was next to me, held me and began to massage my shoulders. Soon the Holy Spirit returned and I was moved round and round as I held him. I was about to let go of him when he and some nearby brothers carried me out to a quiet, dark place. They used their shirts to fan cool air toward me. I woke up quickly and walked back to the hall.

My knee, which had troubled me for several years, had been healed. I could go upstairs without pain. I felt so much love in my heart; I just wanted to hug brothers and sisters and give encouraging words. I could sense the smell of flowers, and any foul smell was also very clear.

I feel indebted to fulfill God's will for the rest of my life. I have been able to witness to groups at my workplace freely, presenting a summary of the Fibonacci Spiral and people have been most intrigued. True Parents' power and energy inspire me. Glory be to God and True Parents.

A Remarkable Healing
Albina Tanui

When the news reached me that we would be hosting the international president, along with joy and happiness I felt concern. I had lain in bed for about two months because of a condition I've had to put up with during my three pregnancies (and one miscarriage). Throughout my pregnancy, I vomit often and need to spit continually, so that at times I have to be rehydrated in a hospital. I feel constantly fatigued and cannot do any work. I was concerned about how I might support preparations and how I might attend Sunday service with the international president because of my health condition.

I felt it was a lineal, spiritual issue, because it also affected my mother and my sisters, though my situation was the most serious. Many members had visited and prayed for this situation and I had liberated my ancestors and done other conditions, but it remained.

On Saturday, February 26, I left the house and moved to Sasamoto Center. Though I struggled, I was determined to welcome our international president. I carried towels to spit and vomit on during the journey. When I arrived, most of the sisters that had visited me at home were surprised to see me. I felt too weak to assist at all in the preparations.

Sunday morning I awoke for Hoon Dok Hae as usual and we prayed with the other guests. Still nauseated, I was spitting all morning. Nevertheless, I was so happy I could attend the long-awaited Sunday service. As usual, I carried a big towel in a paper bag and sat at the back, near the door, so that if worse came to worst and I needed to vomit, I would not interrupt the service.

Immediately, I saw Hyung-jin nim near the door to the hall. I stood up quickly, started clapping and joined in the singing of a holy song. My eyes filled with tears. I felt it was a dream. My husband quickly came for me; he asked me to sit in front and to accompany him when he offered cheers of mansei. I didn't think twice about it and even forgot my towel on the back seat. During the service I forgot about spit- ting and vomiting; however I was still feeling feeble.

As we sang Cham Bumo aim eog mansei, I never sat down. I noticed my energy had come back to normal; I was feeling as strong as when I am not pregnant. The feeling of illness and fatigue left my body. I cried as I witnessed this healing. I noticed that my husband would sometimes look at me with concern, but I was not in a position to let him know I was as normal as before. After the singing, we were called to the front for the cheers of mansei. I couldn't contain myself; I was overwhelmed with joy Tears flowed from my eyes.

After the service, I felt hungry and ate lunch, which was made from beans. I would always vomit after eating beans and feel a lot of stomach pain, but this time I didn't have any difficulties.

My lady helper ran up to me after the service; she, who had seen me so unwell, couldn't believe her eyes when she saw me so energetic. Members who knew of my prenatal condition wanted to hear how this healing miracle had happened.

On Monday morning, I awoke from the first peaceful sleep I'd had during pregnancy without the aid of medication. I was energetic, and I did not feel nauseated.

On Tuesday, I prepared for early morning Hoon Dok Hae with Hyung-jin nim. I was in the hotel on time. I realized I could do most of the exercises. I wanted to do the one hundred and twenty bows, but my husband insisted I do fewer. 1 felt normal but this was not a normal situation. It was miraculous.

Later I joined the sisters at the training center where Hyung-jin nim would visit. I could now support in cleaning and all other duties. I was very happy I called my mother to tell her of the miracle. With joy she shouted, "Praise be to God." Although she is a strong Catholic, I told her that the Returning Lord had healed me. She later came over to see for herself that I had been healed. On seeing me, she said it truly was a miracle and deserved a contribution of gratitude. My mother stared at me as I explained to her in detail what had happened and how the healing had come. She was so happy for my good health and she said she would pass the message to her prayer team.

How can I return such a blessing to True Father? For the first time I experienced that pregnancy is not an illness. This opened my senses and I saw that in the great name True Parents there is healing. Chain Bumo nim cog mansei!

Experiencing the Holy Spirit in Hong Kong
Thomas Hwang

Hyung-jin nim invested himself physically, 100 percent, to lead the chanting session. He was standing in front, leading the chant, showing us, with his tears and sweat, how much he really wants to do this for True Parents. So we all united with him, with the same heart and same spirit.

Many people shed tears during the session. Some members saw their ancestors....

This is a spiritual connection of heart with True Parents, beyond time and space. Through such a powerful experience, I can tell Hyung-jin nim's spiritual power and leadership is growing. What does true leadership look like? I had wondered what form Hyung-jin nim's leadership would take. I feel good because Hyung-jin nim's leadership is coming from a genuine relationship of heart with God and True Parents and that he is moving the spiritual energy and spiritual power beyond time and space. No external formula. No external liturgy. But energy based on an internal foundation.

I was grateful and I feel no distance from Hyung-jin nim. Before, I did not know who he was and what kind of leader he was. Now I feel I know him.
