WFWP: Invitation for Marriage Blessing Celebration

Contributed by Women’s Federation for World Peace (WFWP) USA

Dear Friends,

It is a great pleasure to invite you to the 2016 Women’s Federation for World Peace USA (WFWP USA) 24th Anniversary National Assembly entitled Compassionate Sustainable Leadership: Women Making an Impact. This year’s National Assembly features an especially significant and meaningful Marriage Blessing Celebration, through which couples renew their vows and rededicate their union and family to God. These families, dedicated to God’s loving purpose as confirmed through a variety of faiths, commit themselves to the betterment of their community and to the creation of global peace.

WFWP’s approach to creating a world of peace revolves around our core focus on marriage and family; there is no sustainable peace without sustainable families. As cultures throughout the world wrestle with social breakdown, resulting from shattered families, WFWP brings to light the beauty and primacy of marriage and of the bonds of love within the family unit. This inspiration gives rise to a variety of WFWP projects, as we take substantial steps toward a hopeful future for a broad and great human family.

Through the Blessing Ceremony, couples take a sacred vow to preserve their lifelong marriage commitment and to raise children to live for the sake of God and other people, as global citizens. Peace is so much more than an absence of conflict or crime. Genuine and sustainable peace includes true bonds of love and fosters joy, creativity and true freedom. That is why the Marriage Blessing is an important first step toward making a better world, and why many couples experience new life and great joy after participating in this interfaith ceremony. They naturally become a model and inspiration for other families and a catalyst for a better world.

We are honored by your acceptance of our invitation to participate in the Marriage Blessing Celebration to be held on Sunday, November 13, 2016 from 9:00 to 11:30 AM at 78 DeMott Avenue in Clifton, New Jersey. We sincerely appreciate your time and consideration of this request. If you have any question, please contact our Marriage and Blessing Committee Chair, Mrs. Justine Cherutich, at 859-240-0160, or our New Jersey Chairwoman, Mrs. Denneze Nelson, at 973-640-9190.
