Couples Relationships Blooming

As planned we had the opportunity to share with approximately 6 couples one evening. Mel shared the topic of having a "Nathan" in our lives. Nathan was a prophet that spoke directly and honestly to David after his sin with Bathsheba. David had the choice to accept or reject the truth that was spoken to him.

We discussed how in relationships, we can confront someone in love or in condemnation and also, we can receive the truth with confidence and conviction or with pride and an unyielding spirit. Despite the language barrier, Mel's delivery was awesome and there was much laughter along with very open ears and hearts of the couples who attended. One of the couples even came to this group as a result of their son coming to our VBS, so everything we do can have a far reaching and lasting impression!  All of the couples expressed the desire to continue coming to the group and the husband of the new couple said he didn't want to come at all but now wishes he could have this meeting everyday!!!

As is the mission of Life to Life, THE seed was planted! We look forward to an amazing baptism service in the morning.
