The Couples for Christ (CFC) Malaysia gathered for their annual retreat in the Good Shepherd Seminary from April 19 to 21, embarking on a journey of spiritual renewal and fellowship.

Under the theme Be A Servant, Be A Light, participants delved into discussions, shared experiences, and engaged in uplifting activities that strengthened their bond as individuals, as couples, and as a community committed to serving God and their ministries.

Led by the CFC Spiritual Director Deacon Sherman Kuek, the three-day retreat offered a programme that encompassed talks, team-building activities, a praise fest, and the Eucharist. Each segment was crafted to resonate with the central theme, guiding attendees towards a deeper understanding of their role as servants and bearers of light.

The retreat sessions, anchored on pivotal themes such as The Fall, The Choosing, The Chosenness, and The Summons, provided insightful learning and practical takeaways for the participants. Through reflections and sharing of their personal experiences, attendees were challenged to discern their purpose, embrace service with courage, and recognise their inherent calling to be instruments of service and love to others.

The CFC Malaysia Annual Retreat not only rejuvenated spirits but also ignited a commitment to embody the principles of love, service, and faith in their daily lives.
