Francis & Jocelyn
Francis and Jocelyn have been married since 2000 and are blessed with a son and two daughters. Both Francis & Jocelyn are PREPARE-ENRICH and SYMBIS Certified Facilitators.
Shortly after they got married, they entered into full-time pastoral ministry. Being newly married, they had to learn how to navigate life together as one. They also had to deal with the challenges of working together. The pressure was real, the conflicts aplenty, exacerbated by their vastly different temperaments and working styles.
It was during this time where they felt very keenly the lack of marriage mentors. They longed for someone wiser, more experienced, someone with a shepherd's heart to journey with them during this tumultuous time in their marriage. Despite the struggles and mistakes, God taught them how to forgive, to trust, to love unconditionally. He poured His love into their hearts and healed their wounds. Slowly but surely, their marriage grew stronger as they learned to depend on the Holy Spirit and find their identity in God as His beloved. Intimacy in their marriage deepened.
After 7 years in full-time ministry, they moved on to another phase in their lives. Francis has been working in the IT industry since. Jocelyn is currently in the training field. She conducts Leadership, Design Thinking, Growth Mindset, Conflict Resolution and other critical life skills programs in schools. They enjoy journeying with younger couples., offering a listening ear and sharing struggles and victories.
They long to see the power of God at work in marriages. They attended a Love After Marriage workshop (birthed at Bethel Church in Redding, California) by Barry and Lori Byrne some years back. This workshop was instrumental in bringing about a restoration and healing in their marriage. The Holy Spirit had moved powerfully in their lives and these experiences birthed in them a passion to see revival taking place in marriages and families. A Holy Spirit empowered revival that transforms relationships - first in the home, then in the community and eventually impacting the nations.

Four months later, they welcomed their first foster son home.
Their parenthood journey is unique. Within a few months, they grew from 2 to become 2+2, parenting two primary school boys. What a huge transition! They were so amazed, only God! The family has moved to Sabah in Jun 2023 but they remain available to meet with couples over Zoom.

In fact, they slowly began to appreciate the disagreements and “lows” in their marriage as moments that provided an honest and a better look at themselves and their relationship. It made them question and learn how loving another person is a commitment that can be so hard but yet so desirable and fulfilling.
Mentoring pre-marital and married couples has been a rewarding journey that worked at adding depth and richness to those relationships, as well as their own. Their interest in supporting and caring for those who are disadvantaged or frailer led them to work and live in different lands, adding to the variety of experiences and interesting stories to share.
