Dear Mr. Paul Sladkus,
We hope this letter find you well. In recent years, our world has faced various challenges, from natural disasters to geopolitical conflicts and global health crises. These unprecedented challenges, reinforce the necessity of the continued pursuit of peace which is a shared aspiration for humanity. Dr. Hong Tao-Tze, President of the Federation of World Peace and Love (FOWPAL), and his late wife, Mrs. Yu Mei-Jung (Mrs. Hong), have devoted their lives to promoting the ideals of love and peace. Three years ago, Mrs. Yu peacefully bid farewell to us, leaving behind a paradigm legacy that continues to inspire world citizens.
A Life Devoted to Service:
Mrs. Yu, Mei-Jung wholeheartedly supported Dr. Hong, Tao-Tze, the Zhang-mem-ren (leader) of Tai Ji Men, Vice President of the Association of World Citizens, and the President of the Federation of World Peace and Love. She fulfilled her mission of helping others and the world by traveling to every populated continent, including visits to more than 100 countries to promote the culture of conscience and peace, garnering wide recognition and building precious friendships with countless international advocates. She worked with Dr. Hong to establish FOWPAL, the renowned peace organization. Together with Dr. Hong, she helped establish Tai Ji Men academies worldwide, providing spaces for tens of thousands of families to enhance their physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.
