parents.
Waking up early the follow-ing day, the group had a bounty
of food for breakfast. Family
games then followed that had
everybody laughing and enjoy-
ing.
Before the group left the
campsite, thirty families residing
around the area received goods
from the chapter.
Indeed the summer camp
was another beautiful andmemorable event enjoyed by
over sixty members (13 fami-
lies, 3 couples) who joined the
activity.
See you next year!

No one ever won a chess match by making only forward moves. Just like in life, sometimes we haveto move backward to take a better step forward.
Fireproof gave the viewers a
time to reflect on what is impor-
tant in a marriage relationship andhow to make it work. The activity
ended with the parents listening
to the wish lists read to them by
CH Guy Ceniza.
As the cold evening mist began
to cover the place, the parents
prepared for the evening meal
while the kids were busy writing
letters to their parents.
The day ended late as the
mothers were honored aroundthe campfire by the fathers and
the kids. At the same time chil-
dren had their turn to express
their love for their parents as
where man can really commune
with nature and its Creator.
While setting up the tents andpreparing for lunch, dark clouds
hovered over the place. Soon it
rained in the nearby vicinity, but
the campers only had a shower
over them- a strong manifesta-
tion of Gods loving protection.
The afternoon kids-bonding
activities facilitated by Connie
Sumalinog and Liza Cejas culmi-
nated with the children writing
their concerns and wish listsaddressed to the parents.
The parents on the other hand
had a film showing in an impro-
vised home theatrethe big tent

Being thankful in all circumstances is a sign of having a strong faith. Wearing a smile in times oftrials simply means living at peace with God.
Fr. Martin Okafor-Ilozue CSSp - BCBP Mactan BCLP19
Sacrament of MatrimonyPart1
Matrimony or marriage has been part and parcel of humanity since the begin-
ning of human beings. Following the biblical account of creation (Gen. 1 26-27),
God made man and woman and joined them together into marriage, thus becom-
ing the earliest known account of matrimonial union of man and woman. From the
ages past till today all cultures and people of the world had been performing matri-
monial rituals, establishing taboos and sanctions around it for the purpose of pro-
tecting the sanctity of its institution. The union of man and woman in marriage had
been considered as the legitimate avenue where humanity participated in procrea-
tion, doing the work originally done by God in creating Adam and Eve.
That marriage is an act of God, made it a sacrament, as we understood it to be.
Sacrament is a mystery, hence it is of God who is mystery itself. If marriage is a
sacrament and from God therefore, we are only called upon to participate in that
affair which belonged to God. Marriage does not belong to us, so when two peo-
ple, man and woman wed, they entered into a covenant with God the Author and
Origin of marriage.
Like in every other human desire and endeavors, marriage is also a vocation, a
call to give oneself for the good of the other. In marriage as a sacrament, Gods
love is poured out to those who participated in the covenant of marriage, and as a
vocation, the same love is shared among those who entered into covenant with
God in a holy matrimony.For a marriage to be, it must originate from God, lived in Gods presence with
holy fear and a complete willingness to sacrifice oneself for the love of the soul
mate with the fruits of it being the children that will be born as Gods blessing. Thetaboos and sanctions in marriage were primarily made to protect the institution of
marriage, to keep married couples faithful to each other, avoiding infidelity, unlaw-
ful expression of mutuality and to re-enforce the nurturing and care that come
with entering into a holy union. All these are essential components of being mar-
ried.
Being a father or a mother is an invitation to love infinitely or as one wants, in
extending the love between husband and wife to the children, marriage completes
its uniqueness as a Trinitarian symbolism, pointing to the end of reality as Christ
taught us, LOVE.
Fr. Martin
If marriage is asacrament and fromGod therefore, we
are only called uponto participate in thataffair which be-
longed to God.

seeking Gods guidance
along the way.
And so, when in the
depth of being awed by
Gods love, I asked the
Lord to use me. He did.
I am still in awe at how
God had filled us with Hisgraces while serving Him.
The latest was healing me
of my cough and colds

we gave the last talk of

Our Homes for God.
Simply amazing!
bigger plan God has for us.
Although I did not see its
purpose at the start.
I wondered how we can
provide for them. How we
can make them the per-
sons God wanted them to
be. But Gods plan is flaw-
less. He renewed our faithand brought us to the
Brotherhood early on in
our marriage. Through the
BCBP He taught us how to
be Christian parents, how
to build a strong family of
faith.
It is not an easy task.
We have our struggles as
Getting married at
the age of 32 yet blessed
with five children is an
amazing grace.
When the children
were still very young,
three of them are over a
year apart from each
other, I had my handsfull. I had to give up my
job to become a fulltime
wife and mother. But I
have no regrets. For
only a big loving heart,
that of a mother, can
give as much.

At the end of the
training, each participantwas asked to draw up
