The Words of the Ablong Family |
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
I would like to encourage everyone to attend this 3-Day Seminar. We seldom have special guests here coming from America and this is the first time that this will be done with our beloved elder of faith, Rev. Philipp Schanker.
"He will tackle issues that are of great concerns for us particularly the situation and spiritual education of our 2nd generation and how to prepare them for their respective blessings. He will also address the many issues confronting Blessed Couples as we strive in our path to parental growth. We will also have a family festival on the first day where we can share the moment of joy and laughter with songs and dances and a fellowship among our families and old acquaintances as well as other invited guests from different faiths who will join us on the occasion.
Sharing and testimonies will be a recipe of the seminar that we hope could create a deeper bonding from amongst us as a community of faith. A Family night will be spent in songs and prayers and internal guidance from our speaker will hopefully quench our spiritual thirst that we have missed since the good old days. We hope that the sharing of the Reverend could offer us some deep and meaningful insights that could help us leap in Faith, Hope and Love as we overcome the challenges of raising our families at the same time making our due contribution in Kingdom building."
So let us try our best to attend this important life-giving experience with our True Parents representative coming all the way from the USA.
Thank you.
Raffy E. Ablong
Dear Families,
We send you warmest greetings! Since the inception of PUCMJ in the Shizuoka convention early this year, we have defined a new mission and vision statement for our Blessed Families here in Japan that we all could embark as we look forward to the year 2013. We hope that we could refine and redefine that vision more clearly in our hearts as we charge to our experiences in our different missions and respective family lives. As part of our overall plan to strengthen our families and our ever growing Blessed Community as a whole, we felt that educational programs should be given emphasis not only for our growing 2nd generation children but for us Blessed couples to also receive education and guidance on spiritual parenting that could help us in our mission to raise our children well and be a productive Blessed Families who could help in the Providence of God centering upon our True Parents.
We are happy to inform you that the PUCMJ Central Region will be hosting a 3 Day Summer Camp seminar for both parents and children on August 11 to 13, 2010 at Suzuka Youth Center Mie Ken. The theme for this seminar is "Strengthening Families: Taking Ownership towards 2013". We are so blessed to have Rev. Philip Schanker with us as the main speaker and lecturer for the seminar. He will tackle issues that are of great concerns for us particularly the situation and spiritual education of our 2nd generation and how to prepare them for their respective blessings. He will also address the many issues confronting Blessed Couples as we strive in our path to parental growth. We will also have a family festival on the first day where we can share the moment of joy and laughter with songs and dances and a fellowship among our families and old acquaintances as well as other invited guests from different faiths who will join us on the occasion. Sharing and testimonies will be a recipe of the seminar that we hope could create a deeper bonding from amongst us as a community of faith. A Family night will be spent in songs and prayers and internal guidance from our speaker will hopefully quench our spiritual thirst that we have missed since the good old days. We hope that the sharing of the Reverend could offer us some deep and meaningful insights that could help us leap in Faith, Hope and Love as we overcome the challenges of raising our families at the same time making our due contribution in Kingdom building.
This is the first seminar of its kind that we will be holding here in Japan among Blessed Central Families for both parents and children. There will be a simultaneous Japanese translation so the presence of your Japanese spouses is highly appreciated. Considering the magnitude of attendees and the challenges of organization, we will appreciate your cooperation if you could help us ease the burden by letting us know your early confirmation to attend the seminar. We have arranged some families here in Mie Ken to accommodate families coming from far off places for their stay to stave off your budget and this will be on a first confirmation first serve basis. The idea of "one family hosting another family" is another way of bridging our relationships as brothers and sisters. Of course, you may always have the choice to stay at the seminar site with other participants but with additional accommodation rate to be charge on your part. But overall, the three days package deal is so cheap when we think of how much blessing our respective families will be receiving from the lectures of Rev. Schanker that money cannot buy and the endearment that we all can share from everyone during the 3 days ordeal.
As soon as we iron out the small kinks in the overall program preparation, we shall be sending out the programs and other details of the event on a separate sheet for your perusal. Should you have inquiries and other matters to discuss regarding this seminar program, please don't hesitate to contact my attention or any of our staffs listed below. May you find this invitation worth the opportunity and blessing that Heaven wants to share with your families. God Bless! I leave you the precious words from our True Parents:
"As of today, I take my first
step towards the 100th year of my life. We have had to complete the
mission of the actual True Parents and also receive that seal from
God who is Himself the True Parents of all mankind. Now, with 3 years
remaining in this mission, we are leading each day of our lives with
more seriousness than ever before…"
