Foundations for Family Champions Conference

Couples Time. Nice!


Nicholas and Nosimilo Ncube from Crossroads attended the Family conference on “Enjoying your marriage” which was held at Resthaven, Harare. The aims and objectives of the conference were:
1. To spend time together with the Lord
2. To encourage cooperation by involving both Family Champion and church leader couples
3. To provide an opportunity for couples to have time together learning about marriage and applying it to their relationship in a peaceful environment
4. To equip the Family Champions with marriage counselling skills
5. To empower the couples present to lead marriage groups in the churches



Couples having some fun.




What they enjoyed most was:
• Mostly we enjoyed being together just the two of us, learning, playing and talking together.
• Seminars were very interactive, the group times & discussions where we went to discuss outside made things fresh.
• We enjoyed learning about how to communicate with our spouses and the importance of having time with each other as couples so that we can share our feelings so that you can come to know each other better.
• We enjoyed the topics communication and romance and sex.
• We were enlightened on how to deal with problems in our marriages.
• We enjoyed all the lessons.
• We enjoyed the lesson on HIV & how to talk to my partner.
• Good food
• Teaching on counseling

The Family values need to be integrated more into church life. How wonderful it would be to see couples enjoying their marriages and to see happy & healthy families.
