Unification Church poised for a new era, officials say

The Unification Church is strongly positioned to preserve and expand both its global spiritual outreach and its commercial holdings as tens of thousands of believers gather to say a final goodbye to founder Rev. Sun Myung Moon, two top church officials said in interviews here this week.

Sun Myung Moon inside the Cheongpyeong Heaven and Earth Training Center complex near Seoul, Korea on Wednesday, Sept. 12, 2012. Thousands of mourners have come over the past few days to pay tribute to the reverend. Once inside the complex, they first watched the video on his life, then signed in electronically before being given flowers to offer and the chance to write a remembrance on a special wall.
