From May 21–25, 2026, the Palawan community welcomed the National Moshim Team with open hearts, hosting the Moshim Workshop and Pastoral Visitation. As the 14th community visited under the pastoral care initiative of Rev. Ronnie Sodusta, Regional Director of FFWPU Philippines, Palawan became a living canvas where Heaven painted a story of reconciliation, renewal, and unity.
Eight Blessed Families received the pastoral team into their homes. Each prayer offered was more than words—it was a benediction, a gentle reminder that Heaven’s love dwells in every household. For families long absent from church life, the visitation became a bridge back to the community, a call to return not with guilt, but with grace.
In Barangay Salvacion, Roxas, the sight of True Parents’ picture displayed in the barangay hall spoke volumes. It was a symbol of enduring faith, a testimony that the providence has taken root not only in families but in the very heart of the community. Local officials—many themselves Blessed Families—stood as partners in youth and community service, proving that the vision of True Parents continues to inspire civic life.
The Moshim Workshop on May 23–24 gathered 47 participants, enriched by the presence of Rev. Yutaka Yamada, Continental Director of FFWPU Asia Pacific, whose words lifted spirits and reminded members of their place in the global providence.
Yet the deepest victory was not only in lectures, but in hearts reconciled. Misunderstandings and resentments—toward current and former leaders, between Blessed Families, and even between elders and youth—were gently resolved. Through prayer, dialogue, and fellowship, forgiveness flowed, trust was rebuilt, and unity was restored.
Generations found one another again: elders offering wisdom with humility, youth receiving encouragement with renewed hope. What once divided became the soil for deeper love. This reconciliation embodied the essence of moshim—attendance not only to Heaven, but to one another.
Meals shared, laughter exchanged, testimonies spoken—these simple acts became sacred threads weaving members together. Gratitude filled the air as participants expressed how the workshop renewed their determination to support Holy Mother Han and the providence she leads.
The Palawan Moshim Workshop and Visitation was more than an event—it was a pilgrimage of healing.
Where there was distance, there is now closeness. Where there was resentment, there is now forgiveness. Where there was silence, there is now dialogue.

Reflections shared by participants during this event.
“I am very grateful to have been able to participate in this Moshim Seminar together with the elder members and other second-generation members. Before this, I was mostly focused on my personal life and responsibilities, so I did not have many opportunities to connect deeply with the movement or with other 2nd gens. Through this seminar, I felt warmth, encouragement, and a renewed sense of belonging within our Heavenly Parent’s family. Meeting other second-generation members who are also trying to grow in faith and support the providence gave me strength and hope. I realized that we are not walking this path alone, and that by uniting together we can inherit the tradition and heart of our parents more deeply. I feel this seminar became a new starting point for me to think more seriously about God’s Will and how I can contribute, even in small ways, to the providence in Palawan. I hope that the relationships and unity built during this time can continue to grow and help bring a new spirit of cooperation and attendance culture among both the first and second generations.”

“I felt being reborn, revitalized, and recharged through this Moshim Workshop. Now I can see a sense of Direction in Palawan Providence. Before the Moshim Workshop, there were a lot of confusion and struggles inside as there were lots of disunity and distrust among the members eventhough we tried our best to survive and we thought we tried to unite but actually we always asserted ourselves and there was actually no unity at all. We did not see each other but we just saw ourselves, we just saw our own point and disregarded the opinion of others. And above all we were coated with so much resentments and self-evaluated directions on our life of faith. I thank our Moshim Team for all the efforts they made visiting house to house even to some far areas here in Palawan. Their lectures, guidances and love especially to our Rev. Ronnie Sodusta who poured his heart unconditionally which became a condition for us to shed those unwanted debris that brought us to a renewed self. Family Members are truly irreplaceable in the eyes of HP and TPs. I’m also deeply grateful to all our family members in Palawan for opening their hearts and gave a chance for a new beginning. At the beginning of the workshop was a little bit thorny but at the end of it became smooth as forgiveness and love came over to replace those resentments and hatred. Then a new beginning became the solution and only option to every situation we’ve been through. Truly, when we forgive, love and unite, there can be a way for us to become successful Blessed Families of our Heavenly Parent and True Parents and the providence vocab successfully advance. Thank You Moshim Team for coming to Palawan, MIMAROPA, and now Palawan can start anew. We will do our best to unite with our Rev. Ronnie Sodusta and bring victory to our Heavenly Parent and True Parents”
