Family Retreat…African Style!

No matter where it’s held, a Family Retreat is all about exalting Christ, sharing his joy, and celebrating his ‘ability’ in our disabilities. Magdalene Manyi, our Joni and Friends Affiliate in Cameroon, organized an unforgettable Retreat for impoverished families with special-needs in her country. On the last day, Magdalene reported, “This was the second Family Retreat for our country; a week of joy, laughter and spiritual encouragement. We are finishing out our time this morning with testimonies from all!” The next International Family Retreat is slated August 29 – September 2 in Canada, and September 1–5 in Romania – be praying God will open the hearts of many people with disabilities and their families!
