The Words of the Flores Family |
The Philippine Unification Ministry in Japan PUMJ) Central Region under the leadership of Mr. Roy Carumba held the first Regional 1 Day Divine Principle seminar held at the Japan UC Inazawa Church Nagoya last May 3, 2010. It was attended by 15 participants with 1 foreigner of Nepalese-Brazil origin.
The lecture presenters are Ms. Josie Kawanishi, Mr. Jesse Arocena, Mr. Bal Tuballa, Mr. Jun Flores and Mr. Roy Carumba. Majority of the participants are Filipino trainees from Cebu. They have a very warm reception after hearing the Divine Principle and many expressed desire to join and listen to higher seminars and activities of the group. Five of the participants wish to participate in the blessing. Three of them will be terminating their contract this coming June and wish to continue their connection and study of the Divine Principle and to pursue their blessing application at the Cebu Center in Philippines. Another two of the participants are now active members of our very own SUN Band in Mie Ken which we intend to use for our witnessing ministry.
With the Continental Director Rev. Yong giving the direction and blessing for all Filipino Blessed Central Families here in Japan to create a new ministry and pursue an active witnessing program and go beyond our limited mission of donation, members are now beginning to discover their passion, creativity and deep seated desire to actively participate and contribute to God's providence even in this three crucial years leading to D-Day. We are quietly building the steam but resilient and bold in declaring the True Parents as the Messiah, the Lord of the Second Advent. It is indeed a liberating experience not only for us lecturers but for the whole staffs of the seminar to be able to reaffirm our faith and beliefs within ourselves and be able to declare the Messiah to our new guests in a straight forward manner.
The Japanese Church Leader of Inazawa who hosted us for the venue through Sis. Josie Kawanishi expressed gratefulness and appreciation for the work that we are doing and offered his church again for future seminars. We really hope that the time will come when the Japanese churches can finally open their doors for us international members to make our due contribution for her to fulfill her role as God's Eve nation and connect that providential role to our nation the Philippines as the 2nd daughter nation through us -- the Philippine Unification Ministry in Japan. The exciting job and work has just begun even as we look forward to the greater possibilities that will open along the way. Our deepest thanks for all brothers and sisters who help and contributed big and small to the success of this seminar. God Bless.
