Marriage Enrichment Retreat 1

This past weekend, my husband & I attended our very 1st retreat as a married couple in our community (CFC), the MER 1. Actually, most of the talks were like the talks in Singles Engagement Retreat which we attended before we got married. The only difference is that the talks in MER1 are given in present tense while the ones in SER were in the future tense. But it's ok, it is still a very enlightening moment to each couple who attended. There were just actually 5 couples who attended (because the others who were supposed to attend went to GK Expo), our whole household (except for our heads) & KC's older brother (our co-household) and his wife. All of us are part of the young CFC (tlagang kailangan pang i-mention yung young CFC). The retreat also became a bonding moment for our household. While waiting for our fellowship activity, we went to the overlooking part of the retreat house, listened to music, ate some chips & shared stories (mostly ghost stories which freaked Sharon out, hehe). We just played a fun game for our fellowship which was filled with so much laughter (thank you sir, maam hahaha) :)

As I mentioned, most of the talks are not new to Kokoy & I but I am so glad when I saw how it affected the other members of our household. There is really no other way to run a relationship better than letting God run it. By the end of the retreat, a mass was given to us by the resident priest of Maryhill and we renewed our marriage vows:)
