Couples for Christ (with all their affiliated sub groups such as Singles for Christ) is a vibrant and active part of the Catholic Church in Phnom Penh. They form real community to support individuals and families, and together they engage in works of service for the poor. Today CFC couples gathered to say goodbye to Sally and Arnold, the CFC leader couple, who are leaving Cambodia next week. |
The first order of business for the evening was dinner together. Filipino meals, with the variety of dishes they prepare, are a real treat. |
|
The CFC community is divided into "households" for efficiency in working on projects, each house taking a different section of the task. Tonight each household was invited to honor Sally and Arnold with memories and gratitude. |
|
Martin Bandalan, on behalf of the whole Couples for Christ group, presented a silver tray to the departing couple as a memento. |
|
Hannah Lyn Bandalan presented a memory book to Arnold and Sally who will go to the Philippines for a month before emigrating to Winnipeg in Canada. |
