On the weekend 24-26 November, the first Carmelite Congress for Couples was held in Mesa de los Santos (Santander).\u00a0 The theme for the Congress was \u201cMy only concern is to love\u201d.\u00a0 It was a time of fraternal\/sisterly sharing, meetings, prayer and concretion of dreams, while it also provided us with an extra stimulus to continue in our efforts to assist these couples.\u00a0 33 couples attended the weekend from 5 different locations where we Carmelites are present:-\u00a0 the Peregrinas <\/em>Community for Couples (Cucuta), the Betania <\/em>Community for Couples (St. Teresita, Bogota), the Pastoral Familiar <\/em>Community (St. Pius X, Bogota), the\u00a0 Alianza <\/em>Community for Couples (Cali) and the Galilea <\/em>Community for Couples (Bucaramanga).<\/p>\n

The formation sessions and structures of the weekend were organized by Mrs. Angela Maria Sierra from the Javeriana University of Bogota and by three Carmelites, Frs. Fredy Garzon, Eliber Salcedo and Jorge Mario Naranjo.<\/p>\n

We thank God for having allowed us to share this first Congress and for the results that it will produce.<\/p>\n
