Marriage Course

What is it?

Over 8 evenings together, couples talk about important issues that can get swept under the carpet in the rush of daily life. Topics covered include: learning to communicate effectively, resolving conflict, making time for each other and knowing how to make each other feel loved. Each evening begins with a candlelit meal, followed by a talk and a chance to discuss the topic with your partner. Privacy as a couple is always respected. There is no group discussion and the setting is welcoming and relaxed.

Who is it for?

The marriage course is for any married couple who want to build a strong relationship or deepen their lives together. While based on Christian principles, it is relevant for any couple with or without a Christian faith or church background.
