2. CHURCH LIFE

In those days while I was attending school, I also served as a Sunday School teacher at the Heuk-Suk Dong and Seo-Bin Go Churches.

In the winter the Hangang River froze at night. One could hear the sound of the ice breaking. I was scared when I was alone. Still, I had to cross the river by walking over the bridge in order to teach at the Seo-Bin Go Church Sunday School.

I taught the Sunday School students very well. Nowadays, I cannot make my sermons as interesting or as funny as I did then. In those days, I made my teaching very funny and interesting, and when I shed tears, the students also cried out loud. I thought that once they had cried, it would be enough for them. But, I was asked to talk again. I often attended Sunday School and taught them in that way. (15-182)

I served at the Sunday School and taught the young. I was the Sunday School teacher at a well known Sunday School. Why? Because I knew the minds of the children very well through my own experiences. When I was a teacher I told them sorrowful stories. The stories could have become long novels. I improvised novels.

So people like me have no difficulty preaching or giving sermons ten times or even a hundred times a day. That's why I can do this work. So I make a living serving as a preacher or as a teacher. Am I not the Reverend Sun Myung Moon? I am the Reverend Moon of the Unification Church; I am Reverend Moon in front of elderly people, such as grandfathers, and I am Reverend Moon even for Dr. Yoon, and I am Reverend Moon even in front of his grandfather.

I am also Reverend Moon to children. I often play with children. I am also good at sewing. I made all of my underwear. I can even knit. I can make my own clothes. I can make my own socks, even four pairs of socks a day. (139-51)
