“Il Shim” is a Korean term that translates to “One Heart” or “One Heart and Mind.” The Il Shim program is our coming-of-age program for Unificationists ages 13 - 18. Il Shim offers tools for family level inheritance of the traditions and teachings of our True Parents within the context of the parent-child relationship. We have designed fully unique Il Shim Rings with the engraving “Love, Life, Lineage” that a participant receives after completing the program and committing to the Il Shim Pledge.
