Couples For Christ (CFC) and associated ministries held their eighth Family Day last Sunday at Woodbrook Youth Facility. Episcopal Vicar for Family Life, Fr Robert Llanos, and CFC spiritual director Fr Neil Rodriguez CSSp celebrated Mass before the family day began with a march past.

Representative teams came from Sangre Grande, Diego Martin, St Augustine , Success/Shrine and Paramin/Maraval. The CFC Youth for Christ groups from Providence Girls Catholic School also participated. Paramin/Maraval emerged winners as they paid tribute to Jamel Boisson, a member who recently passed away. Members wore a letter ‘J' on their pullovers.

The day continued a six-a-side football competition, a talent show, tug-o-war, and closed with a Praise Fest.
