The couples were reminded that obedience to God’s commands will bring blessings to their family.

“The teachings we received are important because we were reminded of our duties to our household. As a parent, I will make sure that my family is active in serving God and obeying His commands,” Malvin added.

Susan Miguel, a deaconess, said, “We were strengthened in our faith in this special gathering. I understand that being a parent, it is not enough to give children the things they need in this life, but above all to ascertain that they are obedient to God.”
