We had our Marriage Encounter weekend and it was truly amazing. Jake and I had our personal weekend way back in November 2008...feels like forever ago!! We have been a part of the ME community since then. We love it! They are our family here on island - they are full of love and have been through the same things we have and we talk about our relationships and marriages. We help each other grow and Jake and I LOVE being a part of it. We try to be as involved as we can because we truly believe in it. We also wouldn't have such amazing friends or people in our lives here if we weren't a part of it!
After the whole weekend was over (which consisted of LONG LONG days and short short nights of sleep) on Sunday night we had our Love Circle. All the couples that helped organize and run the weekend stick around after all the clean-up and have a love circle. We go around and share what the weekend was for us and how God worked. It's the best part of the whole weekend - we never miss it!
It is also the time where people are nominated and chosen for planning positions for the next upcoming weekend...and we'll we are very EXCITED to say that we are the new HEAD Coordinators and Chair people for the Fall 2010 Weekend. It took a lot of preparing Jake for the notion (all weekend we talked about it) but by Sunday night, after a few beers, we agreed and are ready to take it on!!!
So now lots of planning and preparing!!! Good thing I'm an organizer!
Good thing we are in LOVE and LOVE Marriage Encounter!!!
So there's a quick update....
Spring Break is upon us and neither of us can wait! I am heading off to Singapore on Saturday with my friend Amanda. Pray for safe travels. Jake will be sticking around Saipan to fish, golf, fish, fish, bike, swim, play frisbee, fish, golf and fish. =)
Love
J&J
