Organizing events for single Unificationists to foster meaningful community and faith-affirming relationships
Who We Serve
We host semi-annual events designed to create meaningful opportunities for Unificationist singles aged 24 and older to connect and build relationships.
Our mission is to empower individuals on their journey toward receiving the Blessing of True Parents.
Connect: Meet through group activities, discussions, and 1-on-1 conversations.
Grow: Take time to pause and reflect on your direction and goals. Through presentations from couples on intention, openness, and commitment, as well as guided discussions, you’ll gain tools for self-reflection and personal growth.
Prepare: Be intentional about your next steps. We hope you leave with clarity, inspiration, and new ideas for building the marriage and family you’re meant for.

Shiz & Ben
Hey there! We’re Ben and Shizuka Pehling from Minnesota. We started helping with 24+ before we had kids, and now we’re proud parents to four awesome kiddos who keep us on our toes!
Even with the busyness of family life, we love being part of this space and are passionate about supporting others. Over the years, we’ve been involved in 15+ retreats and have been matching supporters for more than 7 years. If you ever have questions, need advice, or just want to chat, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’d love to connect.
Looking forward to meeting you!

Sungmi & Kris
Hello! We’re Kristian and Sungmi Holdhus, and we’ve been Blessed in marriage for two years. Right now, our biggest goal is growing our family.
Both of us have been Blessed before, and those experiences came with some pretty difficult endings. But through years of healing and searching, we eventually found our way to each other. As a couple, we’re passionate about making our Blessing not just about us, but about sharing our story and experiences to help others on their journey.
Feel free to reach out or ask us anything—we’re here to support you!

Beni & Emmy
Hi! Beni here. Emmy and I live in Mobile, AL, where we’re raising our little family with the love and support of a small but vibrant faith community. We were Blessed in 2010 and are doing our best to provide our kids with the same sense of belonging that so deeply shaped our own lives.
I believe that in raising a family, we discover both our highest purpose and our greatest happiness—and I believe we are all worthy of it. Family is grace. It holds the power to heal this world because it heals and renews me every single day.
Reach out if you need anything!

Yoshie & Matthew
Hi! We’re Yoshie and Matthew from New Jersey. We were Blessed and married in April 2022, and at the end of 2023, we welcomed our first little one, Isaac, into the world!
Our journey to finding each other was long and winding—Matthew’s been Blessed before, and Yoshie took her time finding someone who felt right. Through it all, we’ve become deeply invested in learning, growing, and figuring things out—not just for ourselves, but for future generations.
We hope that our perspectives and experiences can be helpful to you on your own journey. Looking forward to connecting!
