Dear Leaders and all Blessed Families
As you remember, 2020 was a very special year in God’s providence, as True Parents celebrated the opening of the era for the substantial Cheon Il Guk, as well as True Father’s 100th birthday. At that time, Special Grace for CheonBo Registration was offered to all the members, but due to Covid, it could only be offered in Korea.
Now, as we prepare for the dedication of the Cheon Won Gung Cheon Il Sanctum, our True Parents have announced an extension of this Special Grace on a global level.
In the attached official memo, you will note that this is called the CheonBo Holy Wine Ceremony. Please do not be confused. This Holy Wine Ceremony is not just for those who wish to become CheonBo couples at this time, but this Holy Wine includes Special Grace forgiveness for everyone and is also the Holy Wine Ceremony for the Cheon Il Guk Registration Blessing, which is also being offered at this time for all those who have not yet participated since the year 2013.
Meaning of the Special Grace
The Special Grace given by the True Parents cleanses Cheon Il Guk citizens from any violation of heavenly laws they have consciously or unconsciously committed in front of Heavenly Parent related to matters of ethics, faith and the heart, such as negligent life of faith, drinking, smoking, apostasy, heresy, problems related to lineage, infringements of the heart, etc.
Who Can Participate?
The CheonBo Special Grace Holy Wine Ceremony is being offered to all blessed families and single members who did not participate in this ceremony in 2020 or 2021. (NOTE: If you already received this Holy Wine, you may NOT receive this grace a second time).
This includes: 1. Singles (including blessed children) 2. Matched couples (1st, 2nd and Intergenerational couples) 3. Previously Married 1st gen. Couples 4. Blessed Children who married, but didn’t receive the Blessing yet 5. Blessed Children and Intergenerational couples who incorrectly received a HTM Blessing 6. Single Person Blessing Candidates
Conditions of Devotion in order to participate in the Holy Wine Ceremony
A 40 day period of devotions needs to be offered from March 26 to May 4, 2023. This will consist of a bowing condition and Hoon Dok Hae, as well as a monetary donation based on the number 13.
Additionally, all participants must submit a “Statement of Resolve” repenting for their past mistakes and expressing resolution for a new beginning.
For more details, please read the official memo and attachment. The BFM will be hosting some meetings in the coming weeks to answer any questions and concerns. An invitation will be sent soon.
In the meantime, do not hesitate to contact us at akuhn@unification.org or bfmadmin@unification.org.
