Don Emilio Rocchi guided the reflections throughout the entire event, addressing the sacrament of marriage with both simplicity and depth:

• The “Marital Position”: A reflection on conscious choice, fidelity, indissolubility, and openness to life.
• The Grace of the Sacrament: A journey through the moments of the rite (consent, exchange of rings) that allowed couples to interiorly renew their “Yes”.

Saturday: Reflection and Sharing

• Morning: Introduction to the spirituality of Chiara Lubich and to the Loppiano citadel. Personal and couple moments of reflection on the spiritual life of the family.
• Afternoon: National Zoom meeting with other families from Italy. Open dialogue with Don Emilio and group activities to share experiences and reflections.
• Evening: Special encounter with Lode from Gen Rosso, who shared his vocational testimony through music and deep reflections.

Sunday: Creativity and Family

• Nazareth Model: Inspired by the 1981 Family Fest, families looked to the Holy Family as an example.
• Creative Workshop: Parents and children created a “paper website” to express their identity and relationship with God. The key words that emerged? “Love” and, with a touch of fun, “Pizza”.

The event was described by participants as a “moment of heaven” and of profound inner healing, capable of helping them rediscover the meaning of their journey.
