Joint Report by the World Mission Headquarters and the Future Leaders Development Institute, Presented by Chan-moon Kim, from Mission Department of World Mission Headquarters, during the Cheonshimwon All-Night Devotion Vigil on June 29, 2026
The protagonists of this moving story are Missionaries Moon-hee Lee and In-seong Yoo, who belong to the 2nd Class of UPA Heavenly-Top Gun and are currently active in their second year of mission work in Heavenly Europe (UK). These two missionaries are on the front lines of the mission field, finding and establishing witnessing guests prepared by Heavenly Parent, and bearing precious fruit.
Although there were times when they felt inadequate as spiritual parents and faced moments of uncertainty, they kept the slogan “With the Unyielding Heart of Mother” deep in their hearts. We would like to introduce the Hyojeong letters from these two missionaries, who are bringing hope to mission fields worldwide through Cheonshimwon devotion (jeongseong) and a filial heart (hyojeong).
Letter from Missionary Moon-hee Lee
Dearest and beloved True Mother!
Praying with all my heart for your eternal health, long life, and well-being, I offer this letter filled with my longing heart.
Last month, we attended a 7-day Divine Principle Workshop with our team’s witnessing guest, and I was given the responsibility to prepare and deliver the lecture on True Parents’ Life Course. Although I felt very inadequate, a guest approached me after the lecture concluded. Throughout the workshop, he had been the quietest person and seemed to have the least interest in the church.
However, that friend shared his heartfelt reflection, saying, “What you are doing is truly the right thing, so please do not stop and keep going.” I was deeply moved at that moment. Although preparing and giving the lecture felt incredibly difficult to me, I could deeply realize that Heavenly Parent was right there with me, working through my lips.
Beloved True Mother, in May, I resolved to meet another witnessing guest and briefly returned to Korea. This friend is a precious connection I first met at Sun Moon University the year before last, and we even visited Cheongpyeong together. However, last year, after leaving a final message asking, “Can you pray for my family?”, we lost touch. Even during my mission activities, I prayed desperately and continued offering devotion (jeongseong).
After offering a 40-day devotion (jeongseong), we were able to get in touch again. As it turned out, my friend’s family had been going through a great ordeal, and my friend was also in deep pain, receiving hospital treatment and going through a difficult time. I immediately decided to meet my friend, and as soon as we reunited in Korea, I warmly embraced her with the heart of a mother.
First, I took my friend to my home surrounded by beautiful nature, and we shared our hearts while looking out at nature together. Then on Sunday, we attended the church service together, and afterward, we prayed with tears at Cheonshimwon.
Seeing my friend, who is not even a member, praying desperately with tears in front of True Parents’ Holy Portrait, I also prayed from the bottom of my heart that Heavenly Parent would hold onto this family. On the day my friend left, she told me, “Just knowing there is someone who prays and cries with me gave me great comfort and strength.” > At that moment, I realized that this is true witnessing. I came to understand that the essence of witnessing is not just conveying the Truth, but showing Heavenly Parent’s heart of sincerely loving a person and wishing for their happiness.
After that, I carefully explained about Collateral Ancestor Liberation, and my friend said she would ask her parents. Although I knew my friend’s mother was a devout Christian, I did not give up hope and waited.
Then one day, I attended the Great Works with my family and received the grace of entering the Cheon Il Sanctum of Cheonwongung for the first time. Right there, I sincerely offered a report of my situation and prayed desperately.
After finishing my prayer and leaving the Cheon Il Sanctum, I checked my phone and saw a message from my friend. It was the news saying, “My parents have permitted the Collateral Ancestor Liberation.” At that moment, I could feel with my entire being that Heavenly Parent and True Parents were with us every single moment, guiding both my friend and me.
Furthermore, I could deeply experience the truth of the words that nothing is impossible when we pray in unity with Holy Mother True Mother Hak Ja Han. In this way, through this Great Works, I was able to safely complete the Collateral Ancestor Liberation on behalf of my friend. I am sincerely grateful.
Now, I have returned to the UK and am continuing my witnessing activities. Through workshops and Divine Principle studies, I have seen witnessing guests open their hearts before the Word. Through the prayers at Cheonshimwon and the grace of Collateral Ancestor Liberation, I could once again realize how deeply Heavenly Parent loves each single life and family.
Cherishing the love I have been given deep in my heart for the remainder of my time, I will become a missionary who shares an even greater love. As a child completely united with Holy Mother True Mother Hak Ja Han, I will absolutely bring about the revival of the UK.
Thank you. I love you.
Letter from Missionary In-seong Yoo
To True Mother, whom I long for the most in this world and to whom I wish to offer comfort, I send this letter from the UK filled with my love and longing.
We, the UPA missionaries in the UK, have passed our first year of mission work and entered our second year, focusing even more intensely on our witnessing activities. Empowered by the love and wisdom granted by True Mother, we are meeting witnessing guests prepared by Heaven, and they too are embarking on the path of faith, one by one.
In particular, my witnessing guest, Maneesh, offered a representative prayer for the first time in his life at the recent 7-day workshop. Although he does not yet deeply know True Parents’ Word and the providence, I was profoundly moved when I heard his sincere confession that he prayed with a pure heart toward True Mother.
Wherever he went, he never let True Mother’s autobiography out of his hands, always keeping it close at work and while traveling. He even purchased the audiobook to continuously encounter the Word, and recently finished reading the entire autobiography.
Furthermore, Maneesh and another witnessing guest joined as volunteers for two days at the church’s annual festival event. Seeing them sing the song “Saranghae” (I Love You) in Korean during the worship service, I could clearly feel that Heavenly Parent is alive and working right by their side.
We started the to build a healthy youth community that demonstrates true youth culture and true love through daily life, rather than just being a meeting to learn the Divine Principle. There, the young people who initially started as friends began to honestly share their lives and concerns over time. They are growing into youth who have a positive influence on one another by presenting and speaking about what they have learned and realized within the group. Moving a step further, they have started taking initiative to receive deeper education by attending workshops and participating in church-related activities.
Along with this, our core members are also gradually growing. Seeing this makes me feel that the devotion (jeongseong) and prayers we have offered were never in vain. I also came to realize that faith is not a matter of duration but rather deepens through the purity of the heart offered to Heavenly Parent.
Frankly, looking back at the past mission period, there were many moments when I keenly felt my inadequacies as a spiritual parent. There were times when I felt lost on how to guide those who were growing, and even taking the next step felt difficult. Each time, when I acknowledged my shortcomings and tried to take one more step forward, Heavenly Parent always opened a new path.
Through that process, I was able to learn the fact that “witnessing is not accomplished through one’s own strength and effort alone, but a path finally opens when we entrust everything to Heavenly Parent.” And through the process of loving, waiting for my witnessing guest, and growing together, I have come to realize little by little how deep and wide a parent’s heart (shimjeong) is. Within this process, I came to reflect even more deeply on how great and noble the path of love that True Mother has walked truly is.
What is important is that, just like our team’s slogan, “With the Unyielding Heart of Mother,” the four of us missionaries here in the UK will never lose this mindset. We will press forward until the very end so that we can convey the love True Mother has given us to our witnessing guests, and further extend it to the UK church and blessed members.
Just living as a beloved child of True Mother makes me a happier person than anyone else in the world. No matter what difficulties may lie ahead of us, as Pure Water protecting True Mother’s side, I will be grateful for our given environment and responsibilities, and I will not stop my footsteps of hope until the day Heavenly Parent applauds. With all my heart, I offer this letter to True Mother, whom I long for and miss the most in this world. I love you always.
Closing Remarks
Through the Hyojeong letters of these two missionaries, we are able to realize that witnessing is not merely conveying the Truth, but believing in, waiting for, and loving a single life until the very end with the heart (shimjeong) of True Mother.
Furthermore, we can vividly experience the reality that when we do not stop our Cheonshimwon devotion (jeongseong) even amidst our inadequacies and uncertainties, and instead entrust everything to Heavenly Parent, Heaven works in the most wonderful way at the most perfect time.
Moving forward, we in the World Mission Headquarters and the Institute for the Development of Future Leaders will continue to invest all our devotion into raising youth missionaries who embody the love and heart (shimjeong) of True Parents. We hope that the pure hyojeong and tears of prayer conveyed by these two missionaries today brought great comfort and joy to True Mother, and that it served as a time to once again renew the hope and determination for witnessing among all blessed members worldwide.
I will conclude the Hyojeong Report by praying that the immense love and grace of Heavenly Parent and True Parents will always be with all our blessed members around the world who gather their prayers and devotion (jeongseong) every day.
Thank you very much.
