From February to March 2026, the Heavenly Top Gun (HTG) Asia Pacific missionaries conducted a dynamic Pure Love Education Campus Tour across Northern Luzon. In a powerful collaborative effort with the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (FFWPU), Universal Peace Federation (UPF), and the International Association of Youth and Students for Peace (IAYSP), the mission reached nearly 5,000 students in various educational institutions.
Under the guidance of Rev. Rene Lansangan, Area Director, the missionaries partnered with local leaders and administrators in Isabela, La Union, and Ilocos Norte to bring values-based education to the heart of the Philippine campus scene.
Major Highlights and Reach
The tour’s flagship event took place on February 21, 2026, at Isabela State University (ISU) Cauayan Campus. Approximately 2,000 college students attended a seminar focused on preventing teenage pregnancy. Under the theme “Pure Love: The Best Things in Life Come to Those Who Wait Patiently,” students were encouraged to embrace the virtues of patience and responsibility in their relationships.
Other significant stops on the tour included:
- Don Eulogio de Guzman Memorial National High School: 800 students reached through 20 intensive sessions.
- Ilocos Norte Region: Over 500 students across multiple schools (as of March 17).
- Santo Domingo–San Isidro Integrated School: 144 students participated in character-building workshops.
A Vision for the Next Generation
Through interactive lectures and heartfelt mentorship, the program addressed urgent social issues, including the rise of HIV cases and teenage pregnancy among Filipino youth. Rooted in the vision of True Parents, the curriculum focused on four pillars:
- Mind-Body Unity: Cultivating self-control as the foundation of character.
- Personal Agency: Living by the principle, “My Body, My Responsibility.”
- True Love vs. Self-Interest: Learning to distinguish selfless love from self-centered impulses.
- Peace-Building: Empowering “Youth of Character” to become the leaders of tomorrow.
A central theme of the tour was the concept of “Pure Water”—the idea of raising young people with clear hearts who are spiritually and morally prepared to lead their generation.
The Pure Love Pledge
Each program concluded with a moving Pure Love Pledge. Students stood together to commit to sexual purity before marriage and fidelity thereafter, viewing these practices as essential steps toward building strong families and a peaceful society.
This initiative stands as a significant milestone for the HTG Asia Pacific missionaries. It demonstrates the profound impact of collaborative leadership in guiding the next generation toward a life defined by purpose, responsibility, and True Love.
