"Shin Wook"(??) means "Faith Sunrise". She ascended on 2004/11/16 at the age of 90. True Father wrote a calligraphy on 2004/11/19 with the words "Attendance to Faith and Attendance to Heaven..". I believe her new life/career in the new Heavenly realm is definitely rising with absolute faith and attendance.

Her name appeared to us many times in the 1970s when I was one of the early members in Taiwan. Through her guidance and instruction, we did at least 3 spiritual liberation ceremonies at the individual, tribal, and national levels.

Besides True Parents, she is the one whose example and words I shared and quoted most to inspire members and myself in our life of faith.

I didn’t know much about the details of the sacrifice and sufferings of her life course. However, I can say that she had profound insight and wisdom into the issues we proposed. She told me that she had 7 operations before, and was not afraid of being cut again. Her profession is the same as mine-obstetrician & gynecologist. she had delivered over 5,000 new babies, among them, 5 True Children. And she said that afterwards True Parents gave her a ring as a special gift.

She immigrated into America as a missionary early in 1971. First True Father wished her to become an Ob-Gyn. doctor in the U.S.and later assigned her the title and mission of a "spiritual doctor". And she has been doing an excellent job on spiritual counseling with her whole heart and soul ever since.

Before meeting her, I had the image of her in my mind of a "spiritual giant", pushing us to fast or make some tough conditions. I first met her in New York in 1989, and during the spiritual workshop and ancestral liberation ceremony time in California in 1991, I served as her assistant. The true image and real impression of her was: She is a great lady. Although short and slender; she is powerful, yet humble; wise, yet humorous. I was supposed to fast to help the spiritual work, but when she heard that I was fasting, she advised me not to and immediately shared half of her dinner with me.

Her lifestyle was an excellent example of "living for the sake of others". She is always serving members and guests. While she lived in the New Yorker hotel in the 1990’s, I sometimes stayed with her all day long and witnessed her beautiful heart and acts of attendance to others. If the visitors came in near mealtime, she would treat them with a nice meal. What if it’s the time between the meals? Yes, of course, she would serve them tea and snacks. She moved very fast; in no time there was something ready to serve. So I really appreciated and learned from her the great way of loving people through "service with heart". However, she was very smart, too. For example, if she stayed up late last night, she would put a sign on the door of her room (named "Heavenly Woman Speaking Garden"???) saying that guests will be received after10:am. so that she would not be over-stretched in the next day.

I never asked her this question directly, yet I got the answer from her deeds and words:

Prior to the Chung Pyung Providence centering on Dae Mo Nim (since 1995/1/19), Lady Dr. Kim played an important role on the issues regarding ancestors and spirit world. Now she has ascended into a higher realm in where she can work more freely for God, True Parents, and the brothers/sisters she loved so dearly. I wish her all the very best on her new journey, and want to thank her again for her heartfelt visit to my house in Queens in 1995 during my family’s hardest time.
