American Clergy Bring Peace Message to Bangui
Wednesday, November 1, 2006
Bangui, Central African Republic - Two American Christian leaders came to the Central African Republic to deliver the UPF peace message. When Mrs. Carolyn Lincoln and Mr. Alain Leroy arrived at the airport, they saw a strong military presence but as Ambassadors for Peace, they were determined to share the message of peace in this difficult situation.
In a time of war, people came out to meet these Ambassadors for Peace and were inspired by their message of hope. In one organization, 70 people received Ambassador for Peace certificates; all of them had completed the three-week Ambassador for Peace training course.
The Americans visited a medical clinic, youth center and an orphanage that the African Ambassadors for Peace are running. The clinic was established because young women who where pregnant sometimes died on the way to the hospital. Many of the children cared for by the orphanage lost their parents to AIDS, and some of the children have AIDS themselves. UPF is working together with different groups to help better the quality life for African people and is grateful to the American Ambassadors for Peace for coming to Central Africa Republic.
Most of the Ambassadors of Peace in Central Africa would like to reciprocate and come to America to share Father Moon’s message of peace with Americans.
