1 Living with passion Each one of us has received God's call to live a full life, filled with love through our sacrament. He also calls us to light the world through our passionate embrace of this lifestyle. The lack of passion in our lives leads us to be lukewarm, causing us to forget our purpose and dreams. Instead, living life with passion is renewing our decision to love on a daily basis, it is keeping the impossible dream alive, it is keeping that fire burning inside of us so that we may illuminate the world! Loving passionately leads us to experience a full life... the existence that God wants for us! We want to invite you to the North American Convention 2014 in Houston, TX so that we may rekindle that passion in our lives together as well as celebrate the passionate love God has for each of us that continues to illuminate every corner of the United States and Canada through the gift of the WWME Weekend. Living without passion is just to exist, survive. Living with passion is to live with all your heart! To register or for more details.

5 25-27 julio 2014 Pasadena Convention Center Pasadena, Texas Viviendo con Pasión Cada uno de nosotros ha recibido el llamado de Dios a vivir una vida plena, llena de amor a través de nuestro sacramento. Él nos llama además a ser luz mediante la pasión con que abrazamos este estilo de vida. La falta de pasión en nuestras vidas nos lleva a ser tibios, llegando a olvidar nuestro propósito y nuestros sueños. En cambio, vivir con pasión es renovar diariamente nuestra decisión de amar, es mantener vivo el sueño imposible, ¡es dejarnos quemar para poder alumbrar! Amar apasionadamente nos lleva a experimentar una existencia plena… ¡la existencia que anhela Dios para nosotros! Los invitamos a la Convención Norteamericana 2014 para que juntos reavivemos la pasión en nuestras vidas y celebremos el amor apasionado que Dios tiene por cada uno de nosotros y que continúa iluminando los rincones de Estados Unidos y Canadá a través del regalo del fin de semana de Encuentro Matrimonial Mundial. ¡Vivir sin pasión es apenas existir, sobrevivir. Vivir con pasión es vivir con toda el alma! ¿Quieres ayudar? buscamos parejas entusiastas que deseen ayudar en todos los aspectos de la convención. El compromiso de tiempo es flexible. Dediquen tanto o tan poco tiempo como deseen.
