Statement
of Purpose:
|
The Family Federation for World Peace and Unification is an international society comprised of families striving to embody the ideal of true love and to establish a world of true peace and unity among all peoples, all races, all religions... The worldwide organization is based on
the principle that families, working together, have the capacity to resolve
the problems of their societies and the world. Peaceful families will build
a peaceful world.
|
People around the world face social and political problems that have religious and ideological dimensions and can never be fully solved by political means alone. The solutions of local and International issues will come from those who can live for the sake of others. World peace depends on people who are capable of reconciliation, who are willing to transcend racial, religious, cultural, and ideological barriers to achieve unity of heart. Such enlightened attitudes can best be
fostered through family life. Parents dedicated to loving and respecting
one another inspire their children by example. Children inherit an understanding
of peace when they see it in their parents' hearts. Homes filled with peace
make possible a world of peace as well. Rooted in the fertile soil of family
life, FFWPU encourages families to reach out to the world.
|
The Family Federation seeks to create an
international environment friendly to "family values" that support and
strengthen family life. Fundamental to a healthy family is the commitment
of husband and wife to maintain purity in married love, and to uphold the
ideals of fidelity and mutual respect. As parents they love and care for
their children and protect them from abuse and exploitation, guiding them
according to the highest moral standards. The children in such a family
love and respect their parents and grandparents. We hold these "family
values" to be universal and the standard for families everywhere.
|
Family Federation (FFWPU) is not a membership organization but functions as a resource for national organizations. Enhancing worldwide awareness of FFWP activities, FFWPU works to create a worldwide environment friendly to families. Through the international media, in dialogue with other organizations, and according to the directives of Family Federation conventions, FFWPU promotes and defends family-centered ideals and activities. |
