This project which has been running for several years consists in the formation and accompaniment of a group of couples who want to live their lives according to the teaching of Jesus. Each day there is prayer together, listening to the Word of God, and helping one another.
This process has led to an increasing number of marriage celebrations of couples wanting to live their daily lives according to the Gospel, meeting together frequently and sharing their experiences. The most important thing is that the lives of these couples changes in all sorts of ways, in their personal relationships, in the distribution of household tasks and the way they bring up their children.
The celebration of the marriage of the couples was a very cheerful affair with numerous comments from them during the homily and loud applause as they made their marriage vows.
One of the missionaries said: “For me it was a very encouraging experience because the couples who for quite a long time had been living in a certain way can now change their lives and they are very happy to do so with new aims in their lives which they talk about with great enthusiasm”.
