Sharing: Training on Marriage Preparation Program (updated on Jun 17, 2021)

          I shared the 22 talks of Fr. He about Sacrament of Matrimony in Canon Law to many group chatting and several people said it’s very good. Then, seminarian Lin asked me about the content for Marriage Preparation Program so I asked Ms. Sherman of The Hong Kong Catholic Marriage Advisory Council the booklet of Marriage Preparation Program.  I met her during the workshop at Maryknoll Stanley House several years ago.  She sent the e-booklet and offered a training for seminarians so I asked her to organize an online Putonghua training on Marriage Preparation Program for priests, sisters and seminarians.      

Mr. Cai helped me to make the poster with the QR code of registration form as per attached picture.  The training is organized on May 20, 27 and Jun 3 for total 12 hours.  There are 16 sisters and 9 priests, from 11 dioceses, registered for the training.  As Ms. Sherman said the maximum participant is 20 persons, I put 2 sisters on the list for the next training.  More than half are referral from the priests and sisters who are in my group chatting.

There are 22 people attended the session on May 20.  One sister can’t attend it due to internet problem, another sister attended it even though she didn’t register as she got the link of the 腾讯会议 from one of the priests.  Ms. Sherman and Mr. Freeman led the training.  By the end of the morning session, they are expressing their gratitude for the training as it's very helpful for their ministry.

Let’s do simple things with simple love to make God’s love visible.

P.S.

There are 14-16 people attended the session on May 27.  Ms. Sherman, Mr. Freeman, Ms. Agnes (translated by Ms. Anna) led the training.  The internet was not as good as last week. 

There are 11-13 people attended the session on Jun 3. Ms, Anna led the training.

As there is a request to give more sessions, I invited Ms. Vanessa of Caritas Family Service to give talk on Billings Ovulation Method followed by watching the DVD "I do: Keys to Happy Marriage" and sharing my Marriage Preparation Program.  There are 13-16 people attended the morning and afternoon session of Jun 8 and 7-8 people attended the morning season of Jun 17.

Sharing: Rest in Your Love (My version of Canticle of Simeon, multilingual, updated on Oct 19, 2022)

    As I read about http://www.wikisummaries.org/wiki/The_Four_Things_That_Matter_Most

after attending the workshop in Cantonese, I want to re-write the Canticle of Simeon (Luk 2: 29-32) to prepare myself and others in facing death.  I have been pondering the wording for several months and I woke up very early on May 6, 2021 and started to write a draft for a lyric. 

Rest in Your Love

Thank you very much

for creating me specially

for caring for me patiently

for holding me tightly

Reff

I want to see you face to face

bring my life to Your Love

hold me in Your Love

let me rest in Your Love

Thank you very much

for Your grace to be myself

for Your blessings through others

for Your mercy in my life

Thank you very much

for leading my way

for providing for my needs

for consoling my heart

Indonesian:

Beristirahat dalam Cinta-Mu

Terima kasih tak terhingga 

karena menciptakanku dengan spesial

karena menjagaku dengan sabar

karena memelukku dengan erat

Reff:

Aku ingin menatap langsung wajah-Mu

bawalah hidupku ke dalam Cinta-Mu

peluklah aku dalam Cinta-Mu

biarlah aku beristirahat dalam Cinta-Mu

Terima kasih tak terhingga

untuk rahmat-Mu untuk menjadi diriku sendiri

untuk segala berkat-Mu lewat sesama

untuk kerahiman-Mu dalam hidupku

Terima kasih tak terhingga 

untuk memimpin jalanku

untuk memenuhi kebutuhanku

untuk menghibur hatiku

Simplified Chinese (translated by Mr. Cai Si Jie and Fr. Joachim Li, SVD):

Kiswahili (translated by Sr. Esther Warioba, M.M.)

Pumzika katika upendo wako

 

Asante sana

Kwa kuniumba mtu muhimu

Kwa kunijali mimi

Kwa kunishikilia vizuri

 

Kiitikio

Ninataka nikuone uso kwa uso

Kuweka Maisha yangu katika upendo wako

Nishikilie katika upendo wako

Niruhusu nipumzike katika upendo wako

 

Asante sana

Kwa neema yako kwangu

Kwa baraka zako kupitia wengine

Kwa huruma yako katika Maisha yangu

 

Asante sana

Kwa kuongoza njia zangu

Kwa kunipatia mahitaji yangu

Kwa kufariji moyo wangu

Spanish translated by Sr. Norma Pocasangre, M.M. and Fr. Gabriel Altamirano, MG

Descansar en tu amor

Muchas gracias

por haberme creado como un ser único

por tu cuidado que es paciencia infinita

por tu abrazo de amor.

 

Déjame ver tu rostro,

llene tu amor mi vida,

sea mi firme sostén

y mi descanso.

 

Muchas gracias

por el don de la existencia

por los otros que son tu bendición

por tu misericordia que es vida.

 

Muchas gracias

por ser la guía de mi camino,

la respuesta a lo que necesito,

el consuelo de mi corazón.

The music will be available later so temporarily can be read as a poem.
