WHAT THEY SAY...
People who have attended D6Family Conferences from around the world ....
I found it to be life-changing and also very informative. We would like to bring it back to church and then apply what we could.
The big take away is the restoration of family, of marriage and relationship, not only with God but with our family members.
I feel that D6 has really equipped me in the children ministry and also equipped me as a parent to my children
I am so privileged to be given the opportunity to attend thisĀ D6Ā Conference.Ā I have learned a lot and had some regrets now that my 2 daughters are now grown-ups.Ā I had so many wishes that we should have done when my children were still in their formative years. Praise the Lord that we can still do intentional parenting as long as they are still living with us.Ā Praise God for the excellent resource person.Ā The workshops were very helpful too.
