…tears rolling my cheeks like rain fall, as I felt my wife on the October 13th Holy Wine Ceremony, in Nairobi
“…since Oct 13th 2009, the Holy Wine day, our relationship has really improved, to the point that, I feel her with me, almost constantly, and, at last, I have no more sleepless nights..!”
This is my personal Testimony relevant to the cosmic marriage blessing Oct 13th-14th 2009, which we participated via webcast at Nairobi-Kenya.
When our national leader suggested to us to do the indemnity condition of 21 bows and breakfast fasting to prepare for the Cosmic Blessing of Marriages Celebration, at first I thought, I can’t do it, because of my thoracic-cervical spine fractures. The injuries were caused during the USA Embassy bombing on Aug 7th 1998, by Osama-led terrorists group. This is the 13th year since the bombing, and I graduated from sitting in the wheelchair in 2004. And presently, I walk with the support of two clutches.
My Wife HeleneI prayed deeply in my heart for My wife Hélène in spirit World to help me do the indemnity condition. I got the answer from my wife, to try one full bow and 20 head bow for 21 days and to stop all the medication I take in the morning and continue with lunch-evening medications only.That was the answer I was waiting for, I did all the conditions with only one full bow, which was so painful for 21 days and stopped all morning medication. (my wife ascended to spirit world one February 26th 2002, while I was still on wheelchair.)
From October 10th -13th we had to go for DP workshop at peace house Nairobi. This was another big decision to make, as I take care of 82 OVC’s (orphans and venerable children) at kawangware slum Nairobi (Kenya), where I live( more info). These orphans and street boys depend on me for at least one meal in two days, or a minimum of a meal of boiled maize and beans per day. Playing soccer with the street boys that we care for at kenya KidsThe street boys sleep on shop corridors or street in the slum. So I had to make a program for them for the 4 days I was going to be away.With God’s help, I was able to arrange with one woman from our neighborhood, to cook one meal per day for them.
During the workshop I had time to reflect on my life and why God has been so unfair to my life: my spine cord fracture in 1998 and my wife ascending in 2002 while I was on wheelchair and the pain I go through every day just to get medication – so many why!
October 13th 2009 was the holy wine day, and I was feeling so tired and I was the only person seated during the entire holy wine ceremony due to my spine condition. When, I poured a drop of holy wine to my wife photo, I heard an inner voice from my wife saying “it’s over Simon, you are not alone, it’s a new beginning and God understands your needs well”. At first I was in another world, I can’t tell exactly what happened, but when I came back to my senses, I found brothers and sisters surrounding me as I tears were rolling down my cheeks like rain (see 1st photo above).
I felt truly been born again, all the worries I had disappeared, and I immediately stood up without the support of clutches. This was a turning point in my life, a new Era for me, a new beginning. That night I didn’t sleep at all and I was feeling like a new born baby being held by the mother, totally protected!
On October 14th, as the Cosmic Blessing of Marriage Celebration started, everyone was in awe, as they saw me walking in the hall, without the support of clutches, dragging my left paralyzed leg! It was difficult but I managed to spend 3 hour dragging my left leg till the blessing ceremony was over. This is just the external view of cosmic blessing.
The truth is that, since 2002, I have been living a very lonely life at my prime age mid 40’s, without a wife. We could not communicate with her after, she ascended from 2002 to 2007. From 2008, she started visiting me like a dream, and many times, she appeared as a very radiant bright light. However, since Oct 13th 2009, the Holy Wine day, our relationship has really improved, to the point that, I feel her with me, almost constantly, and, at last, I have no more sleepless nights..!
So this is a major turning point for me, and the dawn of a new age in my life. I am so grateful to Heavenly Father and True Parents (Rev. &Mrs. Sun Myung Moon) for such grace and opportunity. God bless you all brothers and sisters in the Unificationist family, I wish you heavenly strength, patience, wisdom and blessing for all your activities. May God be happy for this hour. How we are living with the 360 Billion Absolute Good Spirits, we are able to change!

It’s so heart-touching, the whole story, and the more so, because of your dedication and service to the community… regardless of all circumstances. Your life is real witnessing to God and True Parents, and the Blessing. May God be always with you and your community, thank you.

I am so very grateful to read this testimony of our elder brother who have had such a experience like this.I thought, I’m alone, who have been sacrificing to go on for the providence of restoration. Really heavenly father, true parents love us so much. Sacrifice is the way hows to know more about heavenly father’s and true parents’ heart.

Simon, your testimony is so powerful, thank you for sharing! The fact you are doing so much to help those around you is truly inspiring, and under such difficult circumstances. It made me realise that I really have no right to complain about my circumstances and I must do so much more for God and True Parents, with the physical health I have.God is great, it is so fantasic that He blessed you on Oct 14! With our love and support,Penny Amaral and family in Brazil.

The article "My Reunion with Helene" is so moving and absolutely amazing. Simon is doing such wonderful work looking after the orphans. God Bless him. My husband went to spirit world nearly one year ago and I can also feel him near. God is wonderful and we can help him by bringing others to know our Beloved True Parents so they too can be happy and one with Him. Thank you

Dearest Simon,I was too moved to answer right away. You are one couple who have touched my heart to the core…I have a special file where I keep all your emails. It has the title,"Simon and Helen". Each time I look at it her presence is very real, and I often end up in tears. You and your wife have been carrying a huge load of God’s Han on your shoulders, in your heart, in your spine, your legs… After your lonely 7 year course our Heavenly Father is able to shower His love on you here and on Helen who has missed you so much too. God has cried so many tears for you both. He is proud to have such son and daughter, so proud! My prayer is that from now on, not only your couple may experience joy, but all your suffering kids may receive His love by more and more people worldwide supporting your ministry. The Living God is with you! Aju!

Dear Simon and Helene,One of you is in the spirit world and the other in the physical. And the spirits of both of you are so very bright and filled with energy. The world puts on our plates, so many heartaches and tragedies which we must eat and digest. The world can force upon us so much suffering that our body is destroyed one organ at a time, limb by limb, until it turns to dust. But one thing the world cannot force upon us is death. we never, ever die.This was a wonderful testimony. Thank you.

Simon, thats a good and a moving testimony. You are doing a wonderful work there. It’s a big challenge to many of us.God bless you.
