Witnessing

Reaching out to people interested in our teachings was a fundamental part of Unification Church life. It could range from handing out pamphlets, book tables, street lectures, inviting people to evening programs or workshops, adopting 360 homes in a neighborhood, returning to your hometown or just talking to people at work.
