Why is GPF what the world needs?

Why is GPF what the world needs?

In this world, many people seem to be doing good. Many people do service projects and humanitarian efforts. For example, we have seen the tremendous outpouring of monetary support for the disasters in Haiti and Chile recently. However, some efforts must be more helpful than others. Let us compare different service projects.
It is better to have a more long-term than short term impact. It is better to make people independent, rather relying on the person serving them. It is better to not just give people physical please, but spiritual joy as well because spiritual joy is more long-lasting and valuable than physical pleasure.
The Global Peace Festival accomplishes these goals because it invites people to become self-motivated leaders who are living for the most valuable purpose, to build ideal families for the sake of God and the world. This includes the mission to unite all the faith traditions and establish a world-renowned culture of brotherhood.
The reason GPF can accomplish these purposes is because of its vision, values, and principles. With a clear purpose of OFUG, it goes beyond small minded outlooks and pursues the greatest dream of all that encompasses the hopes and dreams of all humanity and God.
Based on this vision, we share common values that lead us in this direction. Because we find value in spiritual happiness and value in serving others, we have a common base that allows us to relate closely as family.
To accomplish our dream, we also need Principles, which GPF emphasizes and provides. By sharing common universal rules we set the framework for progress because we are committed believers in not a binding and isolating doctrine but rather an understanding that all people can accept as common sense. This commitment to Principles will allow the GPF movement to overcome challenges as it faces different value systems in the world, because it is our cherished blueprint that we determine to follow.
By aligning to our vision, values, and principles, partnering organizations carry the culture of OFUG as owners, and this is what will bring about substantial change in the end.
This brings out the main difference of GPF from other organizations, we have a bigger dream because we determine to bring the family unit to order and thereby bring the global family into unity as well. No other organization has a method to build ideal families, which we have found: it is living for the sake of others.
