It’s springtime, and God’s Love is everywhere.

We’re doing some spring cleaning on the Sanctuaryblessedlife.org matching website. If you’ve been on the site for a while, please take a moment to update your profile and add good, current photos.

We are emailing everyone, so:

• If you’d like to stay on the website and are not yet matched or Blessed, please confirm.
• If you are currently in a matching process, please hide your profile.
• Once Blessed, please remove your profile.
• Parents are welcome to stay on the site if they’d like to help others.

Next Matching Workshop: May 23, 2026, 3 PM – 5 PM EST (USA time)

We are holding monthly meetings with more education about the Matching and how to prepare.

Suggested Guidelines for Matching Candidates of Sanctuary Blessed Life

1. Candidates may contact other candidates through their parents. Usually, the first contact is with the parents of 2nd generation candidates. Please be respectful, especially when there is a significant age difference (we suggest a maximum of 10 years).
2. Candidates should communicate with only one other candidate at a time.
3. When communicating with another candidate, please hide your profile – there is an option on the site to do so.
4. If you wish to decline communicating with another candidate, please do so respectfully, in the manner you would like to be treated.
5. We suggest each candidate have at least two matching photos on their profile: one face-only and one full-body. More is better. Family photos are also nice.
6. Update your photos if they no longer look like you. Please do not cover your face.
7. In the essay sections, please avoid one-word answers. Promote yourself humbly, as God sees you – be honest yet respectful.
8. Review your profile from time to time and update it where necessary.
9. Candidates may select a matching advocate for assistance. Please note: the advocate’s role is not to find a match for you, but to offer support and occasionally suggest a candidate from the site.
10. Candidates should take full responsibility for ascertaining relevant information about another candidate before making a commitment – such as HIV/AIDS and STD screening, divorce papers, etc.
11. Please remove yourself from Sanctuaryblessedlife.org once you are Matched or Blessed, or no longer wish to be on the site.
12. Provide an email address or another way to be reached, and please respond within one week.

May God guide us,

Let Heavenly Father, True Father and Jesus be our teachers. Let the Bible and the 8 great textbooks be our guidelines.

In the Bible we read:

Gen. 1:28: Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.

In the CSG P 2265 we read:

A true family will be the apple of God’s eye. He will embrace that family and dance. When we feel overjoyed, God, who is almighty, would like to hold on to us, and dance, and fly through the air. A true family is God’s object partner that can liberate and comfort Him.

(301-169, 1999.4.25)

Sanctuary Church is a free association of people who believe that True Father Sun Myung Moon is the Messiah and King of Kings and that his son Hyung Jin Moon is his sole legitimate representative and inheritor and Second King of Cheon Il Guk. We believe that each person has the ability to act with his or her God-given freedom, with the caveat that the person must take responsibility for the consequences of such free actions. Aju!
