The church organized a Couples BBQ on Saturday, August 28th at the Church of St. Luke. Engaged and married couples gathered together for spiritual rejuvenation, fellowship, and activities. The theme of the night was “Love and Respect” being inspired from Ephesians 5:33. Drs. Amir and Wedad Hanna reflected on the importance of love in the family while Alfred and Debbie Hanna spoke on the different methods of showing respects in a household. All couples had a chance to share in an agape meal, participate in fun activities, and get introduced to one another. This event was the initiation of the Couples and family ministry in the church and all participants requested that these meetings would be repeated frequently. Overall, it was a night filled with spiritual growth, fellowship, and sharing of experiences that helped us to feel as a united body in Christ that is solidly connected together. God bless everyone who participated in preparing this successful gathering and we look forward for similar meetings in the future.
