Commemorating the Buklod organization’s 58th anniversary, married couples throughout the Ecclesiastical District of Southern Europe attended a special gathering on December 13, 2020.

The assistant district supervising minister, Brother Joel Catalan, officiated the special gathering at the house of worship of the Local Congregation of Firenze, which was the main venue. Other local congregations joined the event via live streaming online.

Brother Joel emphasized in the Bible-based lesson that, to maintain a harmonious relationship among every couple, they should prioritize obeying God’s words and dedicate themselves to all Church activities.

Alejandro Del Rosario, deacon, and wife Maricris, deaconess, said, “Special gatherings like this are truly important for us because these truly strengthen us in the faith and rekindle our love for one another. We were also reminded of our responsibilities as parents, as we lead our family in the loyal and active service of our Almighty God.” — With reports from INC News Section
