With their respective spouses and fellow married members, Buklod members from the Local Congregation of Parma, Ecclesiastical District of Italy North, gathered for a bowling event on April 27, 2025.

The said activity was held at Bowling Parma Srl, Via Emilio Lepido, 26/C, 43123 Parma PR, Italy, which is just a six-minute ride from their house of worship.

Resident minister Brother Benjamin Unay supervised the activity, for which Buklod congregation president Erwin Conchada encouraged fellow married members to participate.

After “playing their best in a friendly competition while having fun being with one another,” attested Conchada, it was Ritche Barquilla who came out as top bowler.

“Bonding of the married members through activities like this is beneficial for them,” said head deacon Romel Dula. “Being active in the faith,” which is shown, among others, by joining Church activities, “is what we also want for our children.”

Parma Congregation is one of the 12 congregations that are under the supervision of Italy North District, together with nine group worship services, with Brother Randy Macalinao as the district supervising minister. — With reports from Ayeesha Marielle Dula of INC News Section
