Marriage Strengthening Resources
Build and Improve Your Marriage with
The Marriage Course
Your marriage is the most important
possession of your physical life.
It can bring great joy and peace and
help pass on a legacy of joy to
children and children's children.
We can help you build your marriage
into the powerful union of joy and
strength that God intended.
The Alpha Marriage Course is one way
that we help married couples build
strength and joy into their
relationships. Not just for
marriages in trouble, this course will
be helpful for every marriage. This eight week
course is designed to systematically
guide couples through some of the
biggest issues of married life, and then
give them tools to break through to
higher levels of relationship.
There is no group sharing of personal
details; instead, during exercises husbands
and wives will privately talk through
the issues.
Call Reuben or Kristin Holland at
279-9995 for additional information
or
see our calendar page on this
course.
Our next course begins on Monday
evening, September 22rd at 7:00 PM
sharp (please arrive early to register,
take care of children and find your
seat). The class is eight weeks
long and costs $37.50 per person.
Childcare, including a snack, is
provided by the church. Donations
are appreciated.
Pre-registration and payment are
required:

Prepare for
a strong, happy marriage with The
Marriage Preparation Course
With every second marriage ending in divorce,
couples planning to marry need to start
life together with good
tools to
build a strong relationship that lasts a
lifetime. We offer
the Alpha Marriage Preparation Course
to help engaged couples go into marriage
with a strong sense of how to make it
work, even when the going gets tough.
The six-week course offers dinner with other engaged couples,
class sessions, exercises for the couple
to complete during class, and an
inventory (FOCCUS) designed to help you find
those areas where additional discussion
is needed between the two of you.
Here's what one couple had to say
about the course:
Our next course is planned for Spring
2009.

friendly encouragement while working
together to improve marriages.

Kristin Holland at 279-9995 for more
information about this course.
