Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)
The Family Peace Association was officially inaugurated on December 2, 2017 in Seoul, Korea where it announced its mission: "To enlighten humanity by uplifting their spiritual consciousness through universal principles and values rooted in God-centered families." It is still in its formative stages of development.
The co-founders of the Family Peace Association are Dr. Hyun Jin P. Moon and Dr. Junsook Moon.<ref></ref><ref></ref><ref></ref><ref></ref><ref></ref><ref></ref><ref></ref><ref></ref><ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>
In his founding address, Dr. Moon expressed that the Family Peace Association was created to carry on the trans-religious work his late father, the Rev. [[Sun Myung Moon]], sought to carry on with the establishment of the [[Family Federation for World Peace and Unification]] (FFWPU), but was not able to fulfill due to "inherent legacy issues." <ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>
== Relation to the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification and Rev. Sun Myung Moon ==
The Family Federation for World Peace and Unification<ref></ref> was established in 1994 by Rev. [[Sun Myung Moon]].<ref></ref> [[Sun Myung Moon]] stated at the founding of the FFWPU that he never intended to create a new religion, but to open an age after religion where families would serve as the core of spiritual and character growth.<ref></ref><ref></ref> [[Sun Myung Moon]] has even stated that the HSA-UWC, the predecessor to FFWPU which he established in 1954, was meant to foster ecumenical cooperation among Christian sects to promote families with deep spirituality and a commitment to serving their larger society.<ref></ref><ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>
By 1994, HSA-UWC had evolved into an entity that resembled a church for people who ascribed to shared beliefs and rituals.<ref>Introvigne, Massimo, 2000, ''The Unification Church Studies in Contemporary Religion'', Signature Books, Salt Lake City, Utah, , pages 47-52</ref> Therefore, in 1994, HSA-UWC was closed, and the FFWPU was launched as a new entity. The FFWPU was created as a broad-based social movement to promote healthy families and strong societies.<ref></ref> According to a memo from the HSA-UWC North America Headquarters in 1997, from the beginning it was clear that the two entities, FFWPU and HSA-UWC, were separate entities, both in objectives and legally.<ref></ref>
Dr. Hyun Jin Moon was appointed vice-president of the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification in 1998.<ref></ref> His leadership style and proposed reforms to dismantle the church structure and create a family-based peace movement were met with resistance and accusations of being unorthodox, eventually leading to his replacement in 2008 with his younger brother, Hyung Jin Sean Moon.<ref></ref>
The Family Peace Association maintains that it was established to carry on the original mission of the FFWPU to expand certain universal principles and values related to God-centered families to a broader, non-sectarian audience.<ref></ref>
