With deep gratitude and overflowing hearts, the 2nd 21-Day Spiritual Growth Workshop was victoriously held from May 9 – 29, 2026 at HAP HJ CheonBo Branch, Pakchong, Thailand, bringing together 78 participants from nine nations across the Asia Pacific region with the theme “Offering our Utmost sincerity and Devotion for Holy Mother Han”. This sacred workshop brought together first and second-generation members, and blessed families, united by a common yearning to grow closer to Heavenly Parent and True Parents.
Over the course of 21 unforgettable days, participants walked a path of transformation — a journey filled with sincere prayers, tears, laughter, and newfound realizations. Through CheonShim Won devotions, Chanyang Yeoksa, Divine Principle, Chambumoron and Korean Epic lectures, HJ Special Lectures, writing Letter for True Mother, and pilgrimage visits. Each soul was given the opportunity to cleanse, reflect, and renew their commitment to a life of mission and love.
Each week was carefully designed to embrace the mind and spirit of every participant — combining education, spiritual training, and living for the sake of others, nurturing both heart and character. Participants offered 18 times of CSW Prayer Practice for 1 hour, 20 times of CSW Special Prayer for 10 minutes daily, 3 times Intensive Prayer Devotion for 3 hours, 1,000 full bow devotion, 40 times Chanyang Yeoksa, and having a daily Holy Ground Prayer and CSW Night Vigil Prayer Devotion. 80 people also received special ansu. Participants offered an average of 18 hours of daily devotion to Heavenly Parent and True Parents during the 21-day period.
The Closing Ceremony was held on May 29 from 9:30 AM to 12:00 NN (Bangkok Time). It was a celebration of victory, transformation, and renewed determination to live for Heaven. Rev. Yutaka Yamada, the Continental Director of FFWPU Asia Pacific, emphasized that the workshop was not merely an ending but a new beginning. He encouraged the participants to share the love, blessings, and experiences they had gained with their churches, families, and communities while True Mother is still with us in the physical world. He also highlighted the responsibility of each participant to become a living testimony, sharing with others the happiness, grace, and spiritual growth they received during the workshop. Dr. Kim In Cheon, President of the HJ CheonBo Asia Pacific Branch, likewise encouraged the participants to be more determined and to have greater confidence in themselves. He emphasized the theme, “Future Starts Today,” reminding everyone that meaningful change begins with immediate action and that they should not procrastinate in pursuing their goals and responsibilities
The 21-day journey was more than a workshop — it was a sacred encounter with Heavenly Parent and True Parents, a spiritual rebirth, and a declaration of hope for the future of Asia Pacific. Each participant left with a clearer understanding of the Spiritual life, a deeper connection to True Parents, and a heart more committed to living a life of faith, sacrifice, and love. As they return to their nations, they carry not only memories — but missions. Missions to lead, to serve, to testify, and to love. For they are not just participants — they are now torchbearers of Cheon Il Guk, ready to light the way for others.
May Heaven continue to bless each one of them, and may their offering shine brightly in the history of God’s Providence.
