March 7 - Albuquerque, New Mexico


Clergy and their members from across the land of enchantment gathered to hear evangelist, "Father" Sun Myung Moon as he called for a spiritual "renewing of the family, community, and nation."

State Sen. Mark Boitano, R-Albuquerque, and former governor David Cargo offered greetings and read proclamations issued in honor of the illustrious event, held at the Albuquerque Marriott.

Part of a whirlwind national tour organized primarily by The Family Federation for World Peace and Unification(FFWPU), an interfaith organization that uses biblical principles in its efforts to strengthen families and communities, according to Reverend Michael Jenkins, president of the federation.
The organizing committee of the "We Will Stand" tour also consists of members and clergy from the America Family Coaltion, the American Clergy Leadership Conference, and the Martin Luther King Family Life Institute.

"America should be a spiritual leader to the rest of the world. When a nation places its own needs first, it won't be able to influence the world," stated Father Moon.

As keynote speaker, following several others, he asked the audience to "sanctify marriage" and put an end to divorce.
"A strengthening of the family will lead to a strengthening of the nation. "Live for the sake of family, and God will eventually come to us," he said.

"We believe God has chosen America to be a light to the rest of the world," stated Reverend Jenkins.
