PHILIPPINES—On the rainy afternoon of June 11, three seniors and 15 couples from of the Philadelphia Church of God congregation in Angeles City played games and conversed over food and drinks at a local café, Coffee Gusto.

“We enjoyed it a lot. The games were simple but enjoyable,” said member Ramon Aquino.

Senior Josefina Lilangan said, “It was such a great experience having to be free from the daily cares at our usual home routine at this one bonding moment with the couples.” She described the event as “a moment to cherish.”
