Dear Blessed members,

I would like to inform you, that there will be a Blessing in Korea on the 12th of October 2008. Hyung-Jin Nim and Yeon-Ah Nim will officiate the Blessing. More details will follow, but it is sure that it will take place and that international 2nd Generation couples that are matched by their parents will be able to attend. There will be no Satellite Blessing this time, so all who wish to participate should attend in person in Korea.

Any 2nd Generation from Europe that wishes to attend should register with the European 2nd generation Blessing Dept. in advance. Please remember that you should complete your full Blessing application and have reported the matching. You will find forms and information on our website: www.2ndgenblessing.com If you have any questions or need help, please contact me.

All couples should arrive in Korea by the evening of the 10th of October (Usually means to depart on the 9th of October). After the Blessing the program will continue until the 14th in the evening. So please plan your return on the 15th or thereafter. The program on the 14th is optional and will not cost extra for Blessing participants, so if you wish to return earlier, you can also fly back on the 14th. For those who wish to it will be possible to fly as a group from Frankfurt on the 9th of October 2008. Tickets will be available through Wonse.

The Blessing fee is 1400 USD or 1000 Euro. In the case of re-blessing you should have paid the Blessing fee and only a participation fee of 500 USD or 350 Euro will apply for this blessing.

Please prepare and bring with you, Wedding suit and dress (Dark blue or black suit with white shirt and red tie for men, white wedding dress and white shoes for women. Gloves, corsage, and Veil will be provided), the Blessing ring (contact Tadatoshi in advance if you wish to order it in Switzerland) and an FM radio for translation.

I look forward to seeing many 2nd gen couples in Korea. Please keep in touch with me and feel free to ask if you have any further questions. People attending the blessing will get further information as it becomes available.

Yours sincerely,
