With the Philippines desire to unite completely with our beloved True Mother, our Holy Mother Han, and to make Her not to worry, we are advancing forward to bring revival to our Blessed Families and members in the Philippines, and become true owners in this very important time in Heaven’s providence.
Through the grace of the Cheonbo Providence opened by True Parents for Humanity, the 3-day Hyo Jeong Cheonbo Cheonshim Resonance Workshop Special Philippines Event took place in Cebu Family Church, in Cebu City, Philippines on September 25-27, 2026. Around 280 blessed families and members both onsite and online, from all over the Visayas Island and all over the country participated in the event. In particular, blessed families and members from Iloilo City, Dumaguete, Bacolod, Eastern Samar, Leyte, and Bohol, which are islands separated from Cebu City by waters, with their longing hearts came to participate onsite and spent long hours of travel by land and by sea just to be present physically.
The 3-day Cheonbo Resonance Workshop was filled with so much grace and blessings especially having it conducted in the birthplace of Christianity in the Philippines over 500 years ago through the expedition led by Ferdinand Magellan in 1521.
With the presence of the HJ Cheonbo Asia Pacific Branch President, Dr. In Cheon Kim, and FFWPU Asia Pacific Continental Director, Rev.

In addition, FFWPU Asia Pacific Vice Continental Director, Dr. Julius Malicdem, Regional Director and National Leader of the Philippines, Rev. Leo Angelo Halog, together with the Vice National Leader, Secretary-General, three Area Directors and 2 Church Leaders from Palawan and Northern Mindanao made the event even more significant with their presence.
The 3-day program commenced through the Cheonshim Won Special Night Vigil attended by around 70 Leaders, Blessed Families and members on September 25. The second day started with the Chanyang Yeoksa, followed by the Opening Ceremony where Dr. In Cheon Kim, Rev. Yutaka Yamada, and Rev. Leo Angelo Halog shared words of welcome, encouragement and inspiration to all participants. Afterwards, the Cheonshim resonance prayer took place for around 2 hours where members received education on Resonance and offered praises and sincere prayers that moves everyone’s hearts.
Dr. Julius Malicdem, Vice Continental Director of Asia Pacific, gave special lecture about “Resonance” before prayers were offered by the participants. In the afternoon, Special Hyojeong Lecture was given by Dr. In Cheon Kim, emphasizing the importance of liberating our Ancestors and Central Evil Spirit (CES) in our bodies that influence our life, followed by Rev. Leo Angelo Halog, who gave a special lecture highlighting the need to apply for Ancestors Liberation and Blessing, offer Hyojeong Offering papers and apply for CES liberation to fully receive abundant grace from Heaven and not only just attending Chanyang Yeoksa sessions.
Following the lectures, calling name prayer for our True Mother, Holy Mother Han, was carried out for 1 hour where everyone tries to unite with True Mother by shouting “Let’s Unite with Holy Mother Han” for 10 minutes and chanted “Ommonim, seogbhang for 130 times” and offered praises and sincere prayers together for True Mother. After the dinner, everyone did chanyang yoeksa and we concluded the second day by having the 3-hour CSW Song Praise and Cheonshim Relay Prayer (Intensive Prayer), where everyone offered their prayers and sincere devotions, sheds a lot of tears, and be able to connect deeply to the heart of True Mother, and bring renewal to their own life of faith.
In the final day of the workshop, the main program started with the Hyojeong Offering Paper ceremony, led by Rev. Halog, followed by the Chanyang Yeoksa and Ancestors Liberation Ceremony. After a short break and CSW Prayer, a very important lecture was presented by Rev. Yutaka Yamada, where he emphasized the purpose of why we are living. He shared that we are created out of love and our life on earth is just our preparation to go to the eternal world, where we will breathe love, the final world, which is the world of love. So, all relationships we have on earth is to help us develop a heart of love. It then followed by an eye-opening Hyojeong Special Lecture by Dr. In Cheon Kim, where he highlighted the challenges in this AI Era. He emphasized how can we regain our soul, in this generation with overflowing answers but with more questions as well, more anxiety, and unhappiness in our life. In this time of many distractions, the Cheonbo providence that True Parents have been carrying out for over 30 years is playing the most fundamental solution to help all people especially our blessed families today to live a happy and meaningful life, centering on True Mother, Our Holy Mother Han. The 3-day Resonance Workshop concluded with the Cheonshim resonance unison prayer and Ancestors Blessing Ceremony that took place after lunch.

All blessed families and members returned home filled with so much gratitude, with a renewed heart and spirit and with a stronger commitment to help advance the providence centering on our beloved True Mother, Holy Mother Han.
