In welcoming a miraculous new spring of the providence, Cheongpyeong Works was held for the first time on the 3rd anniversary of the era of True Parents’ direct dominion.

In 2017, we have been running full strength towards the victory of Vision 2020. The Cheongpyeong Heaven and Earth Training Center became one with the FFWPU International Headquarters, which represents each continent, and which is directly governed by True Parents. This connected the magnificent grace and blessing of Cheongpyeong Works to the world so that every training and event has in truth been conducted and officiated by the great grace of True Parents.
