The Guyana Central District held its first Marriage Enrichment Seminar in Georgetown, Guyana, for pastors on Oct. 18-21. Some 27 couples participated in the event led by Miguel and Irene Garita as a part of the Mesoamerica Region Family Care Ministry.<\/p>\n
Some of the topics they covered were: \u201cWhat We Bring Into The Marriage\u201d and \u201cHealthy Communication.\u201d The Garitas helped the couples analyze how their marriages functioned in order to identify areas where they might grow. In the evenings, they held public services, and about 100 people attended.<\/p>\n
Irene de Garita said that it was a blessed time with good participation from those who attended. She noted that the attitude of the group was a joyful one, and that they shared special times at the altar during the worship services.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are grateful for our excellent translators Rev. July McKeithen and Dr. Faith London., and District Superintendent and Field Strategy Coordinator Dr. Alphonso Porter and his wife, Teil Porter, who organized the event,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
