Ministry With Married Couples

Fellowship Gatherings

Twice each year, our ministry organizes fellowship gatherings called “Evenings for Married Couples.”  These evenings consist of two witness talks by married couples on topics related to energizing marriage, husband and wife exercises, and private time for husband and wife discussions.  In this way, each participant invests in their relationship in order to keep their marriage fresh, alive, and growing.  The evenings conclude with a social hour. 

The over arching theme for the Evenings for Married Couples is “Dancing in the Minefield” based on a video by Andrew Peterson.  Click here to see this beautiful video, which we use at all Fellowship events.  The links below connect you to the witness talks and couple exercises used in past Evenings for Married Couples
