It’s been 30 years but Worldwide Marriage Encounter is back on the west side of the Big Island! The marriage enrichment movement just completed a Holy Spirit-filled weekend in Waimea at Annunciation Church on Sept. 20-22.
Marriage Encounter organizers thank the West Hawaii vicariate parishioners, whose three-year dream to bring a weekend to their communities was fulfilled through prayer and perseverance.
A special mahalo also goes out to the pastor, Father Stephen Macedo, and Annunciation parishioners for their overwhelming hospitality and support.
The next West Hawaii Vicariate weekend will be in Kona Jan. 24-26 at Immaculate Conception Mission Church in Holualoa. Applications are being accepted on www.hawaiiwwme.org.
