The issues of marriage preparation, divorce, mixed marriage, impediments of marriage etc. took the centre stage in the first session.
Mhaseto Lancelot Nakro, principal Government Polytechnic Atoizu and general secretary of CAN, asked the faithful to “take the walk of faith and experience the growth in Christ and live a life that is limitless in grace.”
