Every Friday the National Ministry Team compiles stories and important upcoming events in a quick weekly update video. Here is what we cover this week:
Happy Anniversary!
Congratulations on the 33rd anniversary of the 2075 couples of the July 1, 1982 Holy Marriage Blessing! With this event, the church in America went virtually overnight from being a movement of primarily single people to one of married people.
The Marriage Blessing Movement
The Marriage Blessing movement kicked off on Saturday, June 27, 2015 in Albuquerque, NM, Clifton, NJ, Dallas, TX, Los Angeles, CA and Tarrytown, NY. Couples across the United States celebrated their existing marriage or dedicated their new relationship at the Holy Marriage Blessing Ceremony. Churches and event halls were decorated as friends and family rejoiced with the couples at the beginning of their Marriage Blessing journey.
South Florida Family Church Opening Ceremony
The South Florida Family Church recently obtained a new church building. It is a multipurpose facility, suitable for weddings and events, with just enough space for the community and room to grow. The process of finding this new facility was one that greatly united the community. They had a beautiful ribbon-cutting ceremony and tree-planting ceremony, where every family put water on the tree to nourish it and symbolize working together as one family. This event re-inspired the community and spread much hope.
