Christ’s Mandate Ministry Begins Annual Family Retreat

The Christ’s Mandate Ministry under the leadership of Pastor Olupona have begun her annual Family Retreat themed, The Divorce-free Marriage.

The retreat is scheduled to hold from the 5th – 8th of January, 2022 at the Camp Manuel ground, Irese, Ondo State.

The meeting began today with the opening prayer, choruses and teaching.

In his teaching, Pastor Olupona explained from the scriptures how that marriage comes with it’s own troubles and for it to be successful, it must be constantly fed by the two parties involved.

He taught that marriage can be managed and damaged, stating that being busy with oneself alone and having too high expectations from your spouse can damage a marriage.

He said for a marriage to be successful, the husband must be a good man, great forgiver and the wife must be submissive, loving, kind and there must be good communication between them.

During the question and answer segment, a single brother asked if marriage would be enjoyable considering the challenges that comes along with it. Pastor Olupona answered that despite the challenges marriage can be enjoyable if both parties work towards it.

The first day ended with Pastor Olupona praying that God would make, mould and help marriages.
