This message contains the congratulatory remarks made by Prophet Samuel Radebe and Bishop Nancy Rosario at the Celebration of the 66th Anniversary of the Holy Wedding of the True Parents of Heaven, Earth and Humankind and the First Anniversary of the Entrance into the Cheon Won Gung Cheonil Sanctum, held on May 2, 2026.
Good morning everyone! It’s a beautiful day and you all look beautiful.
So I say distinguished guests, honored clergy, beloved brothers and sisters from all around the world,
Grace, peace, and blessings be unto you.
Today we gather on a profound day of historic significance. We celebrate the 66th Holy Wedding Anniversary of True Parents (so you have that to follow!), and the First Anniversary of the Entrance into the Cheon Il Sanctum of Cheon Won Gung. So you know you’re going to remember this day forever. This is not merely a commemoration. It is a divine milestone in the unfolding providence of Heavenly Parent.
From the beginning, the Heavenly Parent has longed to dwell with the children. And though history has been marked by separation and struggle, the providence continued—patiently—until fulfillment.
Throughout that history, God has always moved through chosen vessels, men and women set apart for sacred purpose. And you are part of that. We recognize that heaven has entrusted missions across many generations, and we honor one who has been called as a begotten Daughter, entrusted with a divine assignment for her time.
That fulfillment began to take visible form in 1960 through the Holy Wedding of True Parents. Their union was not simply a marriage; it was a providential covenant restoring humanity back to the heart of God and opening the way for families, nations, and generations to walk in what? In true love.
From that foundation, the Holy Marriage Blessing has gone forth to many, many, many nations, including that of our previous speaker who performed it in his beautiful country of South Africa with over 200,000 people present, while True Mother gave the Blessing. Amen! And this Holy Marriage Blessing is calling families into covenant with God, restoring the sacred purpose of your love, and establishing the building blocks of peace for generations to come. And that generation is your children, who will come after to receive your blessing.
So today, we honor True Mother, Hak Ja Han, the entrusted one, whose life stands at the center of this continuing providence. She has walked a path marked by faith, endurance, and an unwavering devotion to God’s Will. She has advanced the providence with bold clarity, proclaiming Cheon Il Guk, establishing the Heavenly Parent’s Holy Community, and calling humanity beyond the boundaries of religion, nation, and culture into a unity.
Even now, as we are all here in the face of misunderstanding and opposition through all their lives, her call has remained consistent: she has never wavered from her mission. She says, “Not division, but alignment with the covenant of God’s kingdom on earth.”
And we recognize this as more than a moment to observe. This is a history for each and every one of you to understand. Now, just as some of us study the lives of Abraham and the twelve tribes of Israel, you now have a new commitment. So we too must study the history of the Han family, not casually, but with spiritual discernment. That is your duty from this moment on. And the reason for you all to study the history of the Han family is so that we may recognize the movement of God in our time, in your time, in your children’s time, and align ourselves—align yourselves—with that history
And now, we stand in a new era. The Entrance into the Cheon Il Sanctum of Cheon Won Gung doesn’t mark just a place, but a reality that Heavenly Parent is dwelling among God’s people. You see, the Kingdom is not distant. It is here. And it is advancing!
Today, we stand not only as witnesses, but as participants.
And so we align ourselves with Heaven’s purpose.
We align with the call to unity. We align with the covenant that invites all humanity into one–one!–family under God.
On this historic occasion, we especially honor True Mother. As it is written in the Book of Esther [4:14], “Who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”
Well we now know that she has come to the kingdom for such a time as this! Yes. We recognize Mother Han as the entrusted one in this generation, a chosen vessel carrying a providential mandate to advance Heaven’s work on the earth. And now that continues to be your responsibility today.
And through this work, a call—her call—has gone forth across the nations:
And you know what that call is? That call from her heart to yours is: She says, “Come, all who are divided. Be made one. Come, all who are scattered. Be gathered.” She says, “Come, all who are searching. Be restored as sons and daughters of the Most High.” And I thank God for being one of them.
So today, I tell you, we are not merely celebrating. We are recommitting our lives.
We recommit ourselves to the work of peace. We recommit ourselves to lives of true love. Each one of you has been brought here with the objectivity of true love and pass that on to your children and to your children’s children to build a legacy—the legacy of Mother Han’s calling.
We recommit ourselves to unity in a divided world.
And in this sacred moment, we lift up, with all of you, a prayer of prophetic intercession:
“Heavenly Parent, Sovereign Lord of all creation, we acknowledge this appointed time of fulfillment. Let every nation align with Your divine order. Let every heart be awakened to the reality that the gates of heaven are open. We declare that what has been spoken in accordance with Your will shall be established.”
We speak restoration over families. We speak healing over all the nations. We speak unity where there has been division.
And today all of us will boldly declare: The era of Cheon Il Guk is not coming. It is here! The kingdom of heaven is not distant. It is unfolding right before our very eyes!
And to True Mother, we say, praying that she will see this:
“Thank you. Thank you for your unwavering faith. Thank you for your victorious love. Thank you for leading humanity into a new dawn.
You have carried Heaven’s burden. You have walked Heaven’s path. And you have opened a new season for humanity.”
Let the earth hear it. Let the heavens bear witness:
The gates are open. The kingdom is advancing. And Heavenly Parent is dwelling among the people.
So congratulations, congratulations, congratulations on this occasion, this beautiful day of remembrance, because it is the day of their 66th Holy Wedding Anniversary and the 1st Anniversary of the Cheon Il Sanctum – God dwelling within us.
May Heaven continue to guide and strengthen this providential mission through all of you.
Thank you for making Mother’s heart uplifted and joyful today. Blessings to all.
God bless you.
Bishop Nancy Rosario
