After God's Day I made a 3 day fast

Dear Family

After Christmas the students are again at the University. Where I can continue to speak with them,

Many times, I receive letters from my home center of which I have been sent out.

Thanks for the letter of Mrs. [Won Pok] Choi about the happiness of our leader for the establishing of the 40 countries.

After God's day I made a 3 day fast so the first 4 days of the year are for our Father.

When Thannsis (a student) of Athens University returned from his holidays, he told me he would like to build together a Unified Family Center. He was the first to accept the Principles in Greece. He is 19 years old.

Some of the students who I taught have to go into the army.

The Orthodox government is against the Masons who have some power.

This week I went to a monastery, but there were no longer monks. The power of the Orthodox Church is in touch with everything and becomes less and less.

The Greeks search for beauty, goodness and spiritual life and they know the Church does not have this.

This country is very much prepared for the Completed Testament. But every man in every country has its own problems and responsibility.

I hope the Orthodox Church and government will be wise and not oppose us, but recognize God's love working through us.

In our True Parents Name
