A group of leaders from the World Mission Headquarters, led by Doo Seung-yeon, together with his spouse, Director Kajikuri, and Vice Director Motoyama, visited Thailand, which serves as the headquarters of the Indochina region. They arrived late in the evening on the 17th and took part in various programs over four days and three nights before departing on the morning of the 20th.

On the 18th, the visiting team conducted a morning briefing and an afternoon leadership meeting at the Thailand headquarters. During the morning session, an overview of the Indochina region, Thailand, and the purpose of the visit was presented. In the afternoon, deeper discussions were held with regional leaders. The team listened carefully to each report and showed a strong understanding of the complex political environment and Buddhist cultural background of the region. They emphasized the importance of applying Principle education in a way that is flexible and suited to local contexts, while encouraging outreach based on universal values such as love, conscience, and family. They also expressed concern about the number of inactive members, sharing from experience that genuine care and consistent relationships are essential in helping members reconnect.

In the evening, the schedule continued with a meeting with senior members who had laid the foundation for the Family Federation in Thailand. The visiting leaders expressed sincere appreciation for their lifelong dedication and encouraged their continued support, especially in guiding the next generation and ensuring steady growth for the church.

On the 19th, the highlight of the visit—the “Cheon Il Guk Family Meeting” and a special worship service—was held. Director Doo delivered a message centered on the question, “Who am I?”, helping participants rediscover their identity as children of the True Parents. Many attendees shared that the message moved them beyond intellectual understanding to a deeper, heartfelt realization, allowing them to experience the love and heart of the True Mother more personally.

A luncheon meeting with young leaders in Thailand was also held, including a Q&A session. During this time, the group openly shared insights about the current situation of the True Mother and the direction of the World Headquarters, offering encouragement and guidance to the younger generation.

The final event was the launch ceremony of the Cranes Club, where university students and young adults gathered to engage with the visiting team. The leaders highlighted the importance of developing talents across different fields and encouraged participants to pursue their goals with confidence and determination. During the Q&A session, both Director Doo and his spouse answered questions, offering practical advice on marriage and family life that resonated deeply with the audience.

Overall, this visit brought great encouragement to members and leaders in Thailand and across the Indochina region, marking a meaningful new beginning as Southeast Asia celebrates its traditional New Year.
