Year of Celebrating Success & family Fulfillment

The Couples group theme has been defined for the year 2008 and it reads “The year of celebrating success and family fulfillment”. What does this mean from a Christian perspective, what is there to celebrate in a world where pain and suffering are the order of the day, where disease and hunger is the news which congests our daily lives? What is success in our lives if we have failed to reach our goals and what is Family fulfillment when the family unit has become the source of our stress?

With this theme the Anglican couples group sets out to define Celebrating as the Joy and Happiness within us because God loved us so much that he sent his only begotten son, that who ever believes in him may not perish but have everlasting life and for that celebration we give thanks to God all mighty for such great love that sees us enjoying the abundance of life.

We define Success as the bonding of the man and woman in marriage to show the world what God intended for us to be, the Blessings he so abundantly gives us in our children, our work places and those we interact with and the health yes health we take for granted but we enjoy everyday.

We define Family Fulfillment as the love we are able show one another at home and in the group and the world over that we truly are one family, on top of that we add the Unity which moulds us as a source of strength which ultimately gives us a Purpose in our lives.

With the amour of God and this bold theme for 2008 we set foot into the world as examples and boldly declare that THIS IS THE YEAR OF CELEBRATING SUCCESS AND FAMILY FULFILLMENT.
